PRESIDENT SUSPENDS GRANTHAM;
UBYSSEY SUSPENDS PUBLICATION
President Klifick's Letter To Editor
February 10, 1931
Mr. Ronald Grantham,
Editor-in-Chief, The "Ubyssey,"
The University of British Columbia.
Dear Sir:
On the occasion of your interview with me yesterday,
I stated that a special meeting of the Faculty Council
would be held on Tuesday to consider the editorial in the
Ubyssey of Friday, February 6th, entitled: "Criticisms
from Above."
Following this statement I forbade you to publish
any criticism, editorially or otherwise, of the University,
the Faculty or the Government until the Faculty Council had considered the above matter and its decision had
been transmitted to you.
In defiance of this direction, you published or allowed
to be published, in today's issue of the Ubyssey, a number of such criticisms.
No option is left me therefore, but to impose a penalty. I therefore suspend you from the University for a
period of two weeks, namely from February 11th to
February 24th inclusive.
Yours very truly,
L. S. KLINCK,
President.

PUBLICATIONS BOARD
ANNOUNCES SUPPORT
OF EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
We publish these letters to explain the attitude
taken by the Publications Board. It is obvious that we
cannot continue publication under these conditions. We
therefore suspend all regular issues of the "Ubyssey"
until Grantham's re-instatement as a sign that we are in
support of our Editor-in-Chief.

GRANTHAM TO APPEAL
TO U. B. C. SENATE
RE SUSPENSION
Following his suspension by the President of the
University for alleged "defiance of authority" in publishing interviews and letters criticizing the Provincial Government's proposed policy in regard to the University,
Ronald Grantham, Editor-in-Chief of the Publications
Board, will carry an appeal to the Senate. A letter to
this effect was communicated to Students' Council Wednesday night and will be transmitted to the Senate by
Council.
The University Senate meets Wednesday, February

President Klinck's Letter To Ubyssey
February 10, 1981
The Publications Board,
The University of British Columbia.
Dear Sirs:
Enclosed you will find a copy of my letter addressed
to Mr. Ronald Grantham which is self-explanatory.
The matter of the editorial mentioned in the enclosed
letter is to be considered by the Faculty Council at a later
meeting, pending the obtaining of certain information
concerning the jurisdiction of the Students' Council over
the Publications Board.
I therefore submit to the Publications Board the direction I gave verbally to Mr. Grantham that the Publications Board refrain from all criticism of the University,
the Faculty or the Government, either editorially or
otherwise, until such time as the Faculty Council shall
have considered the above matter and transmitted its
decision to you.
Yours very truly,
L. S. KLINCK,
President.
