Committee recommends students be placed on University CouncilR ecommendationsFollow ing is the verbatim report of the

recommendations which the Committee established:

1. It is recommended that the University Council take the necessary action to provide fo r student representation on the fo llow ing bodies, and in the numbers indicated:a) University Council - One student from each of the faculties of A rts, Science, Commerce, and Engineering, fo r a total of fou r students.b) Faculty Councils - Tw o students on each of the Faculty Councils, from the Faculty concerned.c )ln addition, having due regard to the diverse nature of Departmental structures w ith in the Faculties, it is recommended that where feas­ible, a ‘ liason appointment’ of one student to each department be made, to participate in the academic deliberations of the Depart­ment. Such student representatives should be chosen from among the honors or majors students in the discipline, where applicable.

2. It is recommended that the student body be responsible fo r the selection of student rep­resentatives to the positions indicated above. T o be e lig ib le to serve as a s tuden t rep ­resentative students must be registered as Undergraduate or Graduate students, in the Day or Evening Divisions. They must have completed tw o fu ll academic years, the last of which must have been at S ir George W il­liams University, w ith a cumulative grade point of not less than 2.5, or a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 if no failed grades appear on record.

3. It is recommended that the term of o ffi­ce fo r student representatives be one year. One half of the representatives to a particular body w ill be appointed fo r a term starting January 1st; the other half fo r a term start­ing June 1st. It is understood that a student representative who becomes ineligible to serve by virture of Recommendation 2, must resign and be replaced fo r the remainder of his term. A decision on the academic e lig ib ility w ill only be made after the normal time fo r supp- p lem enta l exam ina tions has passed.

It is understood that student representat­ives would serve as fu ll voting members of the bodies to which they have been appoint­ed, w ith all the duties and responsibilities inc­umbent on such membership.

Final decision to be made at October 27 meeting

by ALLAN HILTON,News Editor

A fter a full year of investigation, the Committee to Study the Role of Students in Academic Government has recommended that four students be placed on the University Council and that two students be given seats on each of the four Councils.

The Committee was established in October of last year by the University Coun­cil.

A move within the com m it­tee, reportedly in itia ted by the Arts Faculty , has delayed the presentation of the report to the Board of Governors until November.

T he report had been com ­pleted as of M ay 26, but it is now apparent that the Faculty C ouncils wish to fu rther solicit opinion from the teaching staff.

Jeff Chipmand e p l o r e s t he s t a l l . . .

T he m ain concept which the report presents is that stu­dents have lost close contact with the faculty of the uni­versity, and that steps must be taken to alter that situa­tion.

“T he accessab ility of faculty and adm inistrators to students no longer pertains with the same immediacy as formerly” , the report reads, ‘‘the stu­dent encoun ters his teachers in an increasingly anonym ous way and his typical con tact with adm inistrators is as ‘a problem to be dealt with."

“Realizing that this d e te ­rioration must be halted, the C om m ittee has exam ined the structure of the University G overnm ent in o rder to see how the quality could be en ­hanced to the m utual benefit

of student and faculty alike... it was the unanim ous feeling of the C om m ittee that some m easure of student partic ipa­tion in the governm ent of the U niversity would be one effec­tive m eans of guaranteeing open channels of com m unica­tion betw een all m em bers of the U niversity com m unity."

T he report continues by pointing out that a d irect appli­cation of dem ocratic princi­ples dem ands that the ‘gover­ned', that is, the students, have a Voice in the governm ent.

T he report significantly suggests that greater rapport betw een students and adm inis­tra to rs would arise from the im plem entation of a student voice.

T he report also points out that the faculty -as a whole would secure im portant bene­fits by having students on go­verning bodies.

T he principal reservation that the report exam ines con­cerns the representative nature of the students on the U niver­sity Council.

“Will the student body at large gain by having these representatives unless some feedback occurs? W ill such feedback be affected by the essential transciency of these representatives? C an the lack of continuity due to an under­graduate student body be les­sened by selecting rep resen ta­tives from third year, or by allowing graduates to repre­sent undergraduates? How will the quality of a students' academ ic work be affected by the dem ands of sitting on coun­cils and com m ittees?"

Chaired by Engineering D ean Jack Bordan, the o ther m em bers of the com m ittee

were Principal Robert Rae, A sst. Dean of Arts Mervin Butovsky, D ean of Students M agnus Flynn, V ice-Principal (A cadem ic) D.B. C larke, P ro ­fessors M ichael Brian, G ra ­ham M artin, N orm an Smith, and Edw ind M arkland, as well as student representatives Jeff C hipm an and C huck Axel­rod who replaced R on Luciano and Steve B ernhut in June.

Principal Robert C. Rae. . . s o o n t o w e l c o m e reps

T he final decision on the m atter will not be reached until at least the begining of N ovem ber. T he m echanicsinvolved require that the m at­ter be presented for approval to the next m eeting of the U niversity C ouncil on O cto­ber 27. If it receives approval at that time, it m ust be pre­sented finally to the Board of G overnors for ratification.

S tudents A ssociation Presi­den t Jeff C hipm an and D ean of S tudents M agnus Flynn are confident that the recom ­m endation, if ratified, canbecom e operable by January.

C hipm an feels that the li­kelihood of its passage “is certain", and that no further delays will be encountered .

The Canadian Flag seen as a useless symbol

T hree SGW U professors feel that the new C anadian Flag is a useless C anadian Symbol.

T hese views were m ade known by professors. Sheps, Beissel, H errm ann, and Jordan at a debate on "The Value of our British H eritage" held before 50 students W ednesday, O ct. 4.

Prof. H errm ann stated that the maple leaf served no C a­nadian tradition as it does not grow west of O ntario . Prof.Sheps called the flag a “m ind­less symbol of man in relation to nature, it shows no back­ground, history, or culture."Prof. Beissel cited a correct C anadian flag as a white sheet saying “Oh, everything is just fine" - “the maple leaf says less" he concluded.

In speaking on the value of the British H eritage, Prof.Jordan felt that its value lay in creating C anadians who rejected the heritage.

Prof. H errm ann defended the British trad ition by say­ing it gave C anada the T w en­tieth C entury dem ocratic m o­narchy of Britain. “T h e A m e­ricans are jealous of the m o­narchy" he added.

Prof. Sheps, displaying the U nion Jack, considered the form in which the heritage cam e to Canada. It was brought by B ritons “who had no desire to form a new culture."

H e described our culture as

“V ictorian - practical and puri- tannical". C anada was not a melting pot like the U nited S tates because the Anglo- Saxon elite did not allow the im m igrants to integrate but made them continue in their “quaint folk ways.”

In conclusion Prof. Sheps said to keep from being A m e­ricanized “we must acknow ­ledge the British cultural o ri­gins - w ithout these we are fragm entary mosaic groups or a poor m an's A m erica.

Also d iscussed was the Ca­nadian guilt about industri­alism caused by old English values of privacy and indivi­dual i sm.

Prof. Beissel sum m arized the British heritage as an “am ­biguous factor responsible for C anada's regression and pro­gression in industry and in literature."

Evidently all professors felt that one way to create a new Canadian heritage was not to create our new Canadian flag.

one dollar.Sir G eorge students will

have im m ediate benefits. The great majority of m erchants listed , are located in Mont­real. M any of them are loca­ted dow ntow n and still more in areas where many students live

This service is only avai­lable to student members of UGEQ- Evening students at Sir G eorge will not be per­m itted to use the service for this reason.

Not all m erchants list the exact discounts. From those who do so, it can be said that students will gain greatly from the U GEQ discount service.

T he S tudents' A ssociation will d istribute these booklets when they are available for allocation. They should be available some time next week. Notice will be given so that all students will get the book­let.

UGEQ plans to revise the booklet as soon as the system is underway. M ore m erchants will undoubtedly want to be listed when they see the sys­tem in operation.

This discount service was established by UGEQ as a direct service to its members. It is the second major service of a commercial nature to be available. The Travel Bureau which will handle a possib le $500,000 this year was the first.

The Travel Bureau had, this summer, five chartered flights

to Paris at a cost of a little over $200 retu rn fare.

T he 7th floor dining area is suffering due to lack of student co-operation. S tudents have been leaving their newspapers, ciga­rette packages and wrapping, and trays loaded with dirty dishes on the tables, in spite of notices asking that trays be placed on the conveyor belts. D on M cPhie, d irec to r of Food Services, said 4000 students eat in the cafeteria every day, and 800 of these leave their trays on the tables. "If the problem cannot be solved," McPhie said, “more staff will have to be hired, making higher food prices inevitable."

Gadflies in the Lounge

Despite the quivering and quaking of some facul­ty members it now appears that students will have at least a whisper in running the affairs of this ins­titution. The delay in final acceptance that has been initiated by faculty members is annoying in that it exposes the protracted view of students that lurks in the corners of the Faculty Lounge where members of the cliques nestle, content that they can retain a comfortable distance from the rabble.

They are apparently oblivious of the fact that the Students' Association in its brief requested that a similar committee be established two years after implementation, in order that an analysis of student representation may be undertaken, if any members of the teaching staff have grievan­ces at that time they wifi have ample opportunity to express them. As for the present, the action ta­ken by the University Council is absolutely uncalled for since faculty members had as much opportunity as students to submit briefs to the Committee to Stu­dy the Role of Students in Academic Government. This action admits that there in no dialogue between teacher and student and that they are not regarded as equals within the university community. Now the entire process must be held up for a month while the reactionaries flit about the Faculty Lounge gur­gling the tired cliches about academic distance.

Most sectors of the University recognize the right of the student to participate in the governing of his own affairs. The proposal that four students sit on a council that will be constituted of over 25 voting members is far from ideal.

The one serious fault that we do find, however, with the recommendations, is the institution of stu­dent "liaisons" on the departmental level. It is un­clear as to whether or not this representative could vote at departmental meetings - presumably not. The inclusion of the phrase "where feasible" further complicates matters since no authority has been named to judge which departments are in a position to accept student reps.

Dean of Students Magnus Flynn explained to th e g e o rg ia n that governing of Sir George affairs is done through a "grass-roots” system, i.e. the legislation at the University Council level emanates from the de­partments. It would appear that voting students at the latter level are essential in the formulation of policy and in the avoidance of situations that would require constant bickering by students at the higher level and ultimately being voted down.

We will, no doubt, be criticized for not approaching student representation with the notion that greater co-operation can be achieved among students, facul­ty, and administrators. But the final report states that "Through actual involvement will he (the student) be made aware of the justification and necessity for University procedures." If anyone has the wrong attitude towards student representation, it is the author of that misconceived statement.

Voice from afarEditor, the georgia:N othing a rep roduction of

your “T h e G eorg ian 's” page of Sept. 29th, 1967, in the M ontreal G azette of O ctober 2nd, I be­

cam e aware of the fact that such a new spaper exists and that the type of thinking that I indulge in is not mine alone. N eedless to say, I agree with both the con ten t and tone of the article so reproduced. H ow ever, if I may, I would Hke to m ake the following com m ents and observations.1. If we are perm itted the p ri­vilege of sarcasm , we ought to invite those that have been hecklers and have the in ten­tion of becom ing hecklers to visit the A m erican C onsulate in M ontreal and offer to join up as soldiers to fight the V iet Namese along with the thou ­sands of o ther m isguided pa­trio ts who feel that the future of the world can only be safe­guarded by the m urdering of civilians.2. I t would not be a bad idea to force theserryoung m en to view pictures taken during the last war. T hese p ictures should show bom bed cities, like R o t­terdam , C oventry, London, D resden etc. etc. They could then see how selective bom bs are. How bom bs dropped by pilots (A m erican or other) obey the bom b d ropper's adm o­nition to knock out no more than military targets.3. W ars can only take place w hen selfish viewpoints take precedence over logical ana­lysis. T hey can be ended only when logical analysis shows that one side is having the liv­ing daylights blasted out of him.

T he original d e ­finition of com m unism was p roduction for use and not for profit. Now R ussian com ­munism is moving into the field of production for profit first and use afterw ards. It is offering incentives such as bonuses to producers. And A m erican capitalism with it's subsidies and o ther “social” benefits is moving tow ards w here com m unism started from.

Time to thinkE ditor, the georgian:

In the georgian editorial of S eptem ber 29, the editorial sta tem ents seem to imply that the S tudent Council of Sir G eorge had com m itted itself and the University it rep re­

sents to a particu lar stand on the V iet Nam issue, because that is the stand U G EQ has taken and if we d idn’t take the stand we would be slapp­ing U G EQ in the face. Also, tha t we took this stand “for the good of the studen t”, i.e. if we d idn 't we would be set­ting back the in tellectual hum a­nity of Sir G eorge 500 years.

C an we give these reasons their p roper translations and just be honest? T he C ouncil has taken a stand in allegiance with their m oral and political beliefs. T hey are taking a stand based on their own consciences, taking the responsibility for their leadership position and they should not be afraid to claim it as such.

T h is should serve as w arn­ing and exam ple to the student body of Sir G eorge. If they want their views know n to the C ouncil they should express them selves unm istakeably not in a ridiculous fiasco as

we witnessed T hursday but in a constructive and consci­entious m anner.

T he time has com e to think about w hat it is we, as students and individuals, believe in and w ant and then to dedicate our­selves to achieving it.

The Wilson-Fekete Affair

W hy did W ilson and Fe- kete resign from the M cGill S tudents' Council? W hy did they in fact cut off their own heads? Few people rea­lize the m eaning of this action.

T he editorial of the O c­tober 4th M cGill Daily sta­tes, “T hey quit. T hey didn't have to, but when the system locked them in, they chicked it. All you out there better understand what has hap p e­ned .”

T he Daily understands and acts as if it does. W hat people in North A m erica don 't understand is that some concerned people are not seeking power. T hey seek change, true, but they will not com prom ise their posi­tion to rem ain in power.

T h is tradition has one of its roots in the Fabian So­cialist m ovem ent in England. M any Fabians would ra ther see the British Labor Party lose an election than change some of its goals.

People here don 't unders­tand this. Some people resign because they want to express their views and do not want to com prom ise them .

T he lengthy reports pre­pared by W ilson indicated very clearly what his posi­tion was and what action he advocated.

Insiders expected the report and expected the resignation. W ilson had

som ething to say, w hatever the cost. Past perform ances indicated a probability of C ouncil inaction.

M cG ill C ouncil did not reject the reports, they just shelved some changed o- thers. T hey have good in ten­tions - it's only that the sta­tus quo is so easy fo live with. If you don 't think, that is.

W hat about Sir G eorge? W hen will som eone run on a real policy platform and ask for com m itm ent? M c­G ill’s W ilson and Fekete, labelled as “two of the brigh­test minds that ever graced Council tab le”, had stu­dents in mind. T hey were concerned about students and the university. They wanted real changes in the educational system and in society.

Sir G eorge S tudents C oun­cil has no coun terpart. It acts as an Establishm ent. It never does anything.

W hen will we have a C oun­cil initiative? W hen will there be policy issues? Sir G eorge can never have a W ilson-Fekete Affair. C oun­cil m em bers are too in te­rested in quietly holding power.

M ark W ilson and John Fekete are only to be congra­tu lated on the stand they took and the policies they represented.

See you next issue.

ANALYSIS: THE SEPTEMBER 28 th DEBACLE......

It is too early to say if Sir G eorge made history with last T hursday 's Viet Nam debacle. Some future historian may wish to tag the event with im m ort­ality. C ertainly he will have ap. easy task gathering inform ation. O ur recep ­tion of the V ietnam ese students is perm anently recorded in the C anadian press. D oubtless the U.S. A dm inistrat­ion has taken note of it. O thers continue to exam ine this issue. A t last Friday's C ouncil m eeting External V ice-Presi­dent Jean Sicotte reported an enquiry from a Le M onde repo rte r in Paris.

O u r h y p o th e tic a l h is to r ia n m ay speculate if any lessons em erged from T hursday 's events. W e can affect his conclusions by deciding ‘Y es', our­selves. R ight now.

T he visit of our V ietnam ese guests

by Ursula Lingies

w m a m m B M m m a m xm m m m m m K mfizzled and died in our auditorium . W e have thus far exhausted discussion of only one aspect of this disaster. This is, of course, the intellectual bankruptcy of the neanderthals who cavorted in the' auditorium arena. Since then the hum ans on this cam pus have register­ed disgust.

The georgian proposed locking up this institute. It is unlikely that the Board of G overnors will support such a d rast­ic m easure. Nor can we simply build cages for the animals and hide them from hum an eyes, perhaps som ew here in the sub-basem ent. But we can muzzle them.

T here is, of course, no longer a ques­tion of whether they should be muzzl­ed. T he justification is self-evident.

PREVENTION

Up to this point, then, we have indulg­ed in post-m ortem s based on the m oral­ity of the issue. Post-m ortem s restric t­ed to breast-beating are not very scient­ific. and not at all useful. O ur prim ary lesson, our basic concern should be to prevent a recurrence of Thursday 's fiasco. N ever again must a group on this cam pus be allowed to rob others of the right to hear, and guests of their right to speak. N either need we operate from a vacuum in planning future succ­esses. T hursday provides us with a clear, and harsh, b lueprint of what not to do.

All parties involved in bringing the NLF trio here can share in the lesson. II cam pus reactionaries will continue to bear main responsibility for the dis­aster, U G EQ runs a close second.

T he Q uebec student union abounds in fruitful, even novel ideas. It is also incredibly m ediocre. UGEQ adm irably exem plifies the uselessness of even the most brilliant idea if it is unsupport­ed by concrete , w orkable, fool-proof PLANNING and O R G A N IZA TIO N .

the NLP delegates' mission here. The eyes of the world are, unhappily, on V iet Nam. T he delegates were the first NLF representatives to touch North A m erican soil since the war began. But the ratio of publicity was invers­ely proportionate to the event's high significance.

U G EQ , according to V ictor Rabino- vitch, knew of the ir com ing five days before their plane touched dow n at Dorval. U G EQ inform ed our students' council of particulars the M ondav preceding the T hurday appearance.

Results? Publicity at this university consisted of one se t of lea fle ts d istri­buted at the top of escala to rs on Wed­nesday, one day before the meeting. R esult? Most people who came learned of it accidentally . Some never knew.

Equally inept was U G EQ 's choice of Sir G eorge as the first stop in the tour. This question is not one of m easur­ing public sentim ent -- w hether the re ­ception here is in accordance with C a­nadian sentim ent on the war. In my opinion, it was quite representative. T he question is the in tent of the visit and how success could have been best accom plished. S tudents from V ietnam were brought here to exchange views with their C anadian counterparts. A dialogue is clearly impossible if one party is not allowed to open its m outh.

U G EQ knew their chances of being heard were excellent a t U niversite de M ontreal, good at M cG ill and question­able at Sir G eorge. Both U de M and M cG ill would have set the tone of the dialogue, quite apart from end results m easured in term s of C anadian feeling on the war. A ccording to R abinovitch, our institute was chosen for “stricly technical" reasons. Facilities were not available at the o ther two cam puses. This sounds weak.

Lack of publicity is closely linked with lack of platform planning in the auditorium . U G EQ can share this fail­u re w ith o u r s tu d e n t g o v e rn m e n t. P rotection , for both the audience and the delegates, was the responsibility of both groups.

U G EQ . is has been said, considered the possibility of hostile recep tion at Sir G eorge, though no one seems to have dream ed of the violence. T he NLF trio was inform ed “they might have a partially hostile audience but the m ajor­ity would be with them ", said Rabino- vitvh.

U G EQ 's e rro r is not so much having m iscalculated cam pus m ood. G eorgians them selves, closer to feelings here than the Q uebec students union, guaged sentim ents incorrectly. But this group has been called naive by more p ercep t­ive analysts. Again, adequate public­ity would have alerted the la tter sector, possibly am ong students, certainly am ong faculty.

urbance. One prepares for that kind of possibility. M cGill, which received the trio last Friday, carried through the protection.

T he first p reparation is a com petent chairm an. Surely Sir G eorge has a coun terpart to the suave Laurier La- P ierre. W hatever R abinovitch’s success in o ther areas, he is not capable of controlling an ugly crowd. He solicited good audience behaviour by citing the free speech clause in our dem ocrat­ic society. But one does not plead with m orons. O ne does not appeal to reason in animals.

Let us consider the significance of Still, U G EQ anticipated some dist-

did Jean Sicotte, our university’s sole official representative on the platform. W e acknowledge and admire Sicotte’s sensitivity in a student body by and large brutalized. Unfortunetely, the audience was devoid of comparable sensitivity. Sicotte’s frustrations simply whetted the animal ap p et i te s . It did not help that under stress of stong em otion — and em otion dominates our external v ice -p res id e n t - h is E ng lish fa i led him.

If UGEQ cannot provide more force­ful leadership it should freeze all further activity until its executives complete a Dale Carnegie course. In the mean­time, admit the inexperience of students and draw on faculty for chairmen.

Much wielding of authority was not needed at M cGill, as it turned out. The audience was silent and largely friendly to the Vietnamese. Mr. La- Pierre quickly scotched the isolated hecklers. But had LaPierre’s charm failed him, M cGill provided force to back him up. This consisted of M c­G ill’s Scarlet Key officials whose task it is to preserve order at any public function. Members were placed through­out the Leacock Auditorium.

Where, were members of our student government, our faculty and our admin­istration? Given the importance of the Vietnamese visit, surely the platform was uncommonly naked.

Absenteeism was the order of the day, and it extended to the campus Left. Lack of publicity is again blamed. But while our ‘activists’ did not creep out of the w oodw ork in a b od y , the reactionary elem ents did.

Right-wingers, according to two of their leaders, also did not hear of the event until W ednesday. They thus had the same time to prepare a boycott as leftists had to prepare a supporting, and orderly, audience. Student ‘acti­vists’ may well weigh Harvey Ober- feld’s claim that rightwingers have “a greater political consciousness” than the left, on this campus.

Oberfeld, a Fourth Year Political Science student, and Howard Korzens- tein, Arts II, are both founders of COLD (Committee in opposition to leftist D e­monstrations).

In an in terview Saturday, both disassociated them selves from the auditorium hoodlums. Both disclaimed knowledge of the hecklers’ identity. Asked how he regarded those who yell­ed “Kill a Com m ie”, Oberfeld none­theless was “glad to see students stand up when lies are thrown at them”.

Both deny the hecklers were “organiz­ed”. But while Oberfeld insisted the accumulation of goons was “entirely spontaneous”, Korzenstein’s version appears to take the meaning out of “spontaneous”.

Korzenstein said “a few members” of COLD (whose faithful he numbers at 20, Oberfeld at 3,000) “got together” Wednesday to discuss “showing up” on Thursday. Korzenstein personally “phoned a few friends” who in turn telephoned others.

Continuing to insist the boycott was not organized. Korzenstein admitted having been present at the preparation of the effigy Wednesday 'night. He declined to say where it was made and how many attended its creation.

Whatever ‘little’ organizing there was by the right-wing, it was adequate to fulfill its aims. These are, according to their two spokesmen, to show there is a right-wing on campus and to support American presence in V iet Nam.

The Left was non-existent. Y et Sir George has some experience with right- wing methods. Radicals may have recall­ed last year’s march on CIL and the cou n ter-d em on stra tion by CO LD, fortified with eggs which found their targets in Dom inion Square. The same elements are still with us.

INCREDIBLE IGNORANCEY et our student activists seem incred­

ibly ignorant of even the identity of C O LD ’s m em bers. T h e ir first project may be to clear up the haze, to ar

University Council Committee Report r

T hroughout North A m e­rica today there is a wide­spread investigation into the prem ises and principles of higher education .

past: small student body and faculty, small classes, d irect contact betw een students and staff, students and adm i­nistrative personnel, etc. Com bined, these conditions Com bined, these conditions did provide the student with the sense of his own indivi­dual worth and stature wit­hin the U niversity. H is con­tacts with teachers or adm i­nistrators were personal and d irect. T he growth of the U ni- versity in recent years, sym­bolized by our division bet­ween two buildings has most im m ediately affected this area of U niversity life. T he ac­cessibility of Faculty and ad­m inistrators to students no longer pertains with the same im m ediacy as form erly: thestudent encoun ters his tea ­chers in an increasingly ano­nym ous way and his typical contact with adm inistrators is as a problem to be dealt with.

Realizing that this dete- I rioration must be halted,

the C om m ittee has exam i­ned the structure of the U ni­versity G overnm ent in o r­der to see how the quality of relationship w ithin the A cadem ic com m unity could be enhanced to the m utual benifit of student and F a­culty alike. It is fully aw a­re that no panacea can be offered to the m ultiplicity and com plexity of problem s now being faces and its own reservations are candidly in­cluded in this report. H o­wever, it was the unanim ous

'feeling o f the C om m ittee that some m easure of student par­ticipation in the governm ent

i of the University would be (o n e effective m eans of gua­

ranteeing open channels of com m unication betw een all m em bers of the University Com m unity.

T he proposal that students through their rep resen ta­tives participate in the gover­ning bodies of the U niver­sity has been considered from the point of view of its affect on student and Faculty.

FROM THE STUDENTS POINT OF VIEW

W hile the student is vi­tally involved in the educa­tion process, his participa­tion at present is mainly res­tricted to the classroom si­tuation. As such, his position may be likened to the “pas­sive consum er" of the m a­terial provided by the ins­tructor. Participation in de­c is io n m aking academ ic bodies would provide the student with the opportu ­nity of sharing in the deli­berations that effect his ed u ­cation. R ather than m ere­ly accepting the “packaged p roduct” - w hether course m aterial or adm inistrative regulation - he could exer­cise his influence during the process of decision-m a­king as a responsible par­ticipant.

All University m atters d irectly concern the student and are ostensibly fashioned to fit his academ ic and per­sonal needs. I t appears that a straight-forw ard applica­tion of the dem ocratic prin­ciple would allow for the “governed" to have a voice in his governm ent. Particu-

Explanation o f TermsSom e of the term s used on this page and page one may

be unfam iliar to many readers. A n explanation of theiir m eaning and significance follows:

1. University Council: Primarily, the U niversity C oun­cil's role is to affix authority on all m atters pertaining to the academ ic program . It is this body that listens to appeals, recom m ends the conferring of degrees and diplom as, and alters academ ic program s w hen it is necessary. A num ber of sim ilar functions, too num erous to list, are also delega­ted to the U niversity Council. T he m em bership of the U ni­versity C ouncil is currently com posed of 6 m em bers from the adm inistration and 16 from the faculty.

2. Faculty Council: Faculty C ouncil’s are basecally minat- ures of the University C ouncil with the one im portant ex­ception that they may recom m end, not im plem ent, legis­lation. T hey are each prim arily concerned with the wel­fare of their individual faculty.

larly within an educational environm ent does this have relevance. T hrough actual involvem ent will he be made aware of the justification and necessity for University procedures. T h u s his ed u ­cation would be based both on his m astery of academ ic m aterial and his experience in determ ining the inviron- m ent in which the education is to proceed.

Indirectly , such student participation could alter the state of isolation which presently characterizes the student's position in the U ni­versity. T he personal p re­sence of even student rep re­sentatives would offsef the im personality and aloofness with which University au tho­rities are perceived by stu­dents.

FROM FACULTY POINT OF VIEW

T he Faculty and U niver­sity as a whole would derive im portan t benifits by having students on governing bodies University C ouncils are cons­titu ted on the basis of rep re­sentation from the various segm ents of the University C om m unity. All relevant factors - area of stydy, rank, seniority, adm inistrative func­tion, etc. - are considered in the form ation of coun­cils. T he one vital elem ent of University life not d irec­tly represen ted are the stu­dents. T h e proposed selec­tion of student represen ta­tives would then com plete

the structure of council by allowing for a d irect voice on councils and other bodies, a most significant sector la­cking representation.

W hile councils act on be­half of the best interests of students, they have no way of ascertaining w hether their actions do respond to the needs of the student body. W ith form al channels of re­presentation established, student opinion could be ex­pressed and considered as essential com ponents of the decisions that are made. In this fashion students would be in a position to present their unique perspective on U niversity experience in a constructive m anner respon­sible to the due process of decision-m aking, ra ther than having to dem onstrate their negative reaction to unila­teral decisions affecting them.

O n the whole we feel that the students are a prim ary com ponent of the U niver­sity and as such should be afforded a d irect voice in for­m ulating policies which go­vern the University. In their academ ic role as students they are considered suffi­ciently m ature to absorb the ideas of our culture as expres­sed in A rts, Science and C om ­m erce; to the same degree we believe they are degree we believe they are m ature enough to participate in, and contribu te to, U niver­sity G overnm ent.

The Report's Background1. Initial request made by R on M oores, S.U.S. President

1965-66, to have the University C ouncil on Student Life in­vestigate the possibility of student representation on aca­dem ic decision m aking bodies.

2. T his body recom m ends a study by the University C oun­cil.

3. T he University C ouncil ser up a sub-com m ittee to p re­pare a report with two student m em bers, one of these being the President of the S tudents' Association.

4. Sib-com m ittee requested a bries on the subject from the S tudents' A ssociation.

5. Briefs were called for from students in the georgian and on the basis of those briefs the S.A. subm itted its re­port to the sub-com m ittee.

6. Sub-com m ittee prepared and subm itted its report in final form in M ay of this year.

7. Faculty C ouncils were given copies of the report to stu­dy by the U niversity Council.

8. A t the Septem ber 29th m eeting of the U niversity C oun­cil a m otion was presented recom m ending that the report be circulated to faculty m em bers to solicit their opinions which are to be presented to the University Council at its next m eeting on O ctober 27.

9. U ntil the U niversity C ouncil passes the report and re­com m endations on up to the B oard of G overnors no fur­ther adtion can be taken.

Vietnam Debacle Cont’d...them selves with a bit of inform ation.

Even if the Left was caught off guard by the late publicity, there rem ained the audience perform ance itself. One saw many know n cam pus radicals there. None stood up to alleviate the plight of R abinovitch and Sicotte, not to m en­tion our guests.

It pays, for exam ple, to arrive at these events in advance - to sniff out the atm osphere, so to speak. Such early arrival T hursday would have revealed som ething of w hat was to come: that some 100hoodlum s were already gather­

ed -- in a group -- a full 20 m inutes be­fore the m eeting began, and that they were skipping all over the auditorium seeking a vantage point from which to display the effigy.

On-the-spot m arshalling of our ‘activ- is ts '-w h o presum ably know each o th e r - might have prevented the disaster. M easures could have ranged from a few firm words to more m uscular means.

Let there be no illusion: reactionaries on this cam pus have scored a public victory. T hey set out to break up a m eeting. T hey succeeded.

M oreover, this is the expressed aim of COLD. A ccording to its founders, the rightwing group cam e into existence to oppose any leftist dem onstrations which they consider unpalatable. They did it last year at CIL. O n Thursday they went beyong this plank. T he visit of our guests was in no way a “ leftist dem onstration".

Some faculty here, whose ideology is com m unist, have frankly expressed some dismay with this extension. They have every in tention to say anything and everything at this university. They are scheduled to give some public lec­tures here. T hey have no in tention to run into the goons, as did the V ietnam ese students.

COLD also intends to disrupt the

international student dem onstration against the V iet Nam W ar in November.

M ore is at stake. M ore than one specta to r T hursday overheard racist attacks. T h e slogans “Kill a Com m ie” and “Kill the Y ellow Bastard" were spewed ou t by the same m ouths. They erupted often.

O pposition to these reactionaries is clearly necessary. O pposers must not m erely attack isolated planks in the right wing's program . It is necessary to recognize there is a program.

In a p repared statem ent, W il­son and F ekete announced

their resignation effective no later than O cto b er 26. T hey evoked three reasons for their resignations. C ouncil, they said, con travened certa in ba­sic principles for student par­ticipation in adm inistration.

C ouncil o rdered student re- presentitives to be nam ed even though the adm inistration had not accep ted certa in conditions deem ed essential to student participation.

In a series of lengthy reports, W ilson and F ekete presented what they called a “m inimum for student governm ent re le­vant to the general needs of its constituents". M cG ill C ouncil, they charged, has no in tention of even considering a substan­tial part of the program .

T he third con ten tion is that “C oucil is an anti-dem ocratic vehicle for the suppression of the genuine in terests of the S tuden t’ Society .” T hey illus­tra ted by saying that “V oting records show that the represen- tives of 3000 have outvoted the representitives of 8000 on m atters of im portance.

T he G rea t G od of G oalteri­ders, who for the past four years has smiled approvingly on the varisty G eorgians, may be tem porarily lost.

W ith the graduation of Brian C hapm an, C oach Paul A rse­nault is still looking for a sui­table replacem ent.

Last year's stanby netm inder, Dave Erskine, is not eligible for varsity com petition this year.

“T he b es t prospect we have so far ’is John M orrison," said A rsenault. “He has a lot of poise and looks good stopping shots."

T he position, however, is still open, and M orrison has a few o ther prospects behind him should he prove inadequate.

Defensively, the G eorgians will be as strong if not stronger than ever. D espite the loss of all-star caliber players like H arry W enger and Paul Lem ire, a strong core of holdovers re ­m ain from last years cham ­pionship team .

“W e don 't have the depth that we had last year”, Indian C oach Dave C opp told the georgian. “But barring injuries, we should have a fine season. I d idn’t see the georgians in their first game but I heard they had a strong long-pass attack".

The sum m er m onths did not yield much leisure time for a handful of Sir G eorge athletes this past summer. These and scores of o ther athletes across North A m erica were training in preparation for the Pan-Am ga­mes held in W innipeg the first week, in August.

Trials, to determ ine which ath letes would be com peting in the games, we set up in the form of C anadian C ham pion­ships at the beginning of July A thletes who excelled at these trials were given free tickets to W innipeg to represent C ana­da in the Pan-Am games.

One such athlete is D onna Ross - a third year arts stu­dent at Sir G eorge. She qua­lified for the gam es by pla­cing second in the 200 m eters in the C anadian trials. She then left for W innipeg to

then left for W innipeg to con­tinue practicing on her own. All this practice was not in vain as she placed seventh in a field of 32 in the 200 m e­ter breast stroke. H er time was, 2 m inutes and 59.8 seconds just .4 of a second off the C a­nadian record.

T his was not the extent of her participation however. D onna proceeded to win the C anadian runoff in the hundred m eters and qualified to race with the medly relay team . She did the hundred m eters in 1 minute 22.4 seconds - a C anadian record , and helped the C ana­dian team place second behind the U nited States. D onna ea r­ned herself a silver m edal for her efforts.

SIFL expands to six teams

D onna said she enjoyed par­ticipating in the games, but that she was dissapointed with W in­nipeg.

“A fter the events are over com plained D onna, “you want to have some fun but W inni­peg is dead. O ur curfew was ten o 'clock and we had no time for night-life.

M ark A rnold, a forth year psyc m ajor, was ano ther Sir G eorge student who partici­pated with the C anadian contin­gent.

A rnold, who qualified for the games by placing second in both the q uarter mile hurdles and the 100 m eter dash, left for W innipeg right after school was out to com m ence 5 m onths of continual practice for the games. U nlike the o ther C a­nadian participants, M ark paid his own way to and from W innipeg and stayed at his paren t's W innipeg house while in training. He did however, join the C anadian contingent

at the army barracks during the games.

M ark ran in the quarter mile hurdles and placed seventh in the semi-final with a time of 52.6 seconds. M ark also ran with the sprint relay team re­placing injured H arry Jerom e, and the team proceeded to pla­ce seventh in the finals. mmmmmKaasmmmmmmmmmmmaaBmoB

M ark learned several things at the gam es - among them what team spirit is really a- bout.

“T he C ubans really had team spirit", com m ented M ark, "and the C anadian team could learn som ething from them . They stayed up until four o 'clock in the m orning to greet their baseball team who had for the first time, defeated the A m e­ricans. T hey sang and danced for a long while and it really was som ething to see”.

M ark said that in spite of the terrific tension he endured th roughout the days of the m eet he would like to participate for C anada again.

T w o Sir G eorge w ater polo team m em bers were selected fo play for the C anadian team at the Pan-Am games.

Clifford Barry and M ike Flo- rian participated in the C ana­dian indoor w ater polo cham ­pionships and they were am ong ten players from this neet who were selected to participate on behalf of C anada. Both the­se Sir G eorge students tra ­velled to W innipeg and began practicing with o ther w ater polo selectees from the rest of C anada.

T h e team as a whole did not fare tha t well-placing fifth in the six team field - however Clifford Barry did m anage to score five goals the round- robin series.

'C liffo rd m entioned that the w ay the team w as form ed in­flu en ced it's showing.

“H eck, you can 't get ten guys together a week before the tournam ent and expect them to win. I learnt a lot of technique out there which you can ’t get around here .”

M ike Florian who was also on the team was unavailable for com m ents.

Leonard “Blackie” Chase who last year was a second year student at Sir G eorge W illiams University travelled to W inni­peg to swim for the C anadian contingent.

Leonard, who was since transferred to Simon F raser U niversity out on the west coast, cam e first in the C ana­dian cham pionship breast stro­ke race to qualify for the Pan- Am games. In W innipeg, he ca­me second am ong the C ana­dians in this same race.

Right after the Pan-Am ga­mes Leonard took off for T okyo Japan, to participate in the W orld University S tudent G a ­mes. He swam for C anada but did not do particularly well. M r. Chase, Leonard 's father, explained it this way: “H e didn 't do to well because the com peti­tion was very tough. He had a good time though, and would love to do it again."

M r. C hase, L eonard 's proud father had to supply me with this inform ation as Leonard is presently out on the coast.

A nother notable accom plish­m ent by a Sir G eorge athlete this past sum m er was in the sport of wrestling.

G ordon Bertie participated in the wrestling events at the C anadian cham pionships which were held prior to the Pan-Am games. G ordon was third in the C anadian final and just mis­sed going to W innipeg to com ­pete for C anada.

As one can see, Sir G eorge ath letes are never rem aining idle and they are doing their utm ost to help put our univer­sity’s nam e on the sport’s map of our country.
