I don't think\nthere is any difference of opinion between students and the board on this.\"\nBut committee spokesperson Brad Stock pointed out that while tuition\nfees will increase 13 per cent next year, bursaries are not increasing more\nthan five per cent. He said, \"if tuition is indexed, then at the very minimum\nstudent assistance should be increased.\"\nCommittee chair Maureen Boyd said, \"we were quite impressed with\ntheir response, which was fairly favorable, and we hope that they follow it\nup properly.\"\nThe committee's presentation impressed the board, according to student\nrepresentative Chris Niwinski. \"I think the board accepts that there is a\nproblem,\" he said.\nSee story page 7: TUITION\n-arnold hedstrom photo\nVISUAL DISPLAY of one-eyed monsters fills central control room of UBC nuclear research headquarters in\nunderground bunker near TRIUMF.

And it could mean a nuke in our\nfuture.\nReagan is to visit Ottawa later this month\nfor summit talks with prime minister Pierre\nTrudeau, though no date has been announced to the press. The Ubyssey has learned the\nscope of the trip will be widened to include\nwestern Canada, with special attention being\npaid to joint Canada-U.S. physics research\nprojects.\nA source in the UBC physics department\nsaid last week the tour would undoubtedly include the TRIUMF research facility here.\nThe source, who wished not to be identified, told The Ubyssey Friday preparations\nare already underway should Reagan follow\nthrough in expanding his itinerary.\nThe possibility of a presidential tour of\nCanada was apparently first discussed in\nmeetings between former administration vice\npresident Erich Vogt and U.S. federal officials in Los Alamos, New Mexico. Vogt\nvisited universities, science and technology\nminister Pat McGeer before his trip in order\nto obtain emissary credentials from the provincial cabinet.\nVogt, a physics professor now on sabbatical  from  UBC,  was  in  Los Alamos\nREAGAN . . . true North calls\nvisiting nuclear research facilities there\nbefore returning to UBC to take over the\nTRIUMF facility this fall.\nU.S. state department officials have said in\nstatements since inauguration that one of the\nnew administration's goals is a renewed\npolicy of friendship and cooperation with\nCanada and reports indicated Reagan's visit\nwould be more than perfunctory.\nSchreyer's visit on Feb. 2 was in part to\nnotify the administration and begin preparations, the source said. Schreyer was accompanied on his visit by officials from the external affairs ministry and RCMP security.\nThe source charged that \"they're opening\nwide the doors and rolling out the red carpet\nbecause they want American money for\nresearch.\" Reagan's visit will focus almost\nentirely on nuclear research departments, the\nsource said.\nUBC administration officials are playing\ndown the possibility of a presidential visit. \"I\nmyself haven't been told anything about such\nplans,\" administration spokesperson Al\nHunter said Monday. \"You can rest assured\nno such plans yet exist.\"\nA spokesperson for the campus RCMP\ndetachment said Monday they had received\nno notification of any planned visit to UBC\nby anyone who would require extra security\nmeasures.\nReagan's itinerary could include other\nuniversities besides UBC, with the University\nof Alberta identified by the source as the\nother most likely stop. Reagan may also visit\nQuebec to tour the Tokamak project, a\nnuclear fusion research project jointly sponsored by the National Research Council and\nHydro-Quebec.\nThe presidential visit will coincide with\nfinal talks between the Canada and the U.S.\nwhich could see an agreement to pool the two\ncountry's research into nuclear technology.\nReagan \"wants to see what we have\" before\ngoing ahead with the agreement, the source\nsaid.\nThe source added UBC is a \"natural\" starting point for such a tour.\nFigures released by UBC information services say UBC receives 70 per cent of government research contracts 'in the national interest.'\nThe agreement to pool technology and\nresearch could mean U.S. funding for Canadian research programs and accelerated expansion of the newly-created Discovery Park\nat UBC, which has drawn interest from corporations wishing to take advantage of the\nuniversity's nuclear research facilities.\nWhile denying he knew anything of a visit\nfrom Reagan, administration president Doug\nKenny said Tuesday UBC is preparing to expand its physics department and may finance\nthe move through \"private donations.\"\nThis would be necessary because the provincial government won't supply enough\nfunds to increase the quality of education\nand research at UBC, Kenny said.\n\"We have reached a dead end down the\nlong tunnel of public sector financing,\" said\nKenny. \"It may be time to accept the\nAmerican alternative (of privately endowed\nresearch chairs) at our university.\"\nKenny said nuclear research is undergoing\na resurgence at this time. \"If UBC is to fulfil\nits mission, it should be able to field top\nquality people in areas where they're\nneeded,\" he said.\nTurn to page 3: DON'T Page 2\nTHE    UBYSSEY\nThursday, March 5, 1981\nGRADUATING?\nINTERESTED IN A\nPROFESSIONAL DEGREE?\nThe Faculty of Environmental Design at the University of Calgary offers interdisciplinary graduate\nstudies leading to the\nMASTER OF\nENVIRONMENTAL\nDESIGN in:\nArchitecture\nEnvironmental Science\nIndustrial Design\nUrban and Regional Planning\nOpen to students with a Bachalaureate Degree or\nequivalent.

If he had\nwanted to campaign against CFS he\nwas free to do so.\"\nPullen said he intends to take his\npetition to the Okanagan College\nboard to quash the referendum results.\nown self-interest are important factors in the financing problem, a\nfederal bureaucrat told the conference.\nRichard Van Loon, assistant\ndeputy minister of social development, also said the problem Was\ncompounded by a \"restraint ethic\"\nheld by provincial governments.\nMcGill University economics\nprofessor Paul Davenport warned\nthat firms will relocate in the U.S. if\nCanadian universities are unable to\ntrain prospective employees.\n\"Higher education is an essential\ninput for economic growth,\" he\nsaid. \"The benefits of a university\neducation, as the regional mobility\nof graduates increases, creates a\nstrong case for federal funding.\"\nNew Brunswick premier Richard\nHatfield said educators' fears about\nthe size of the cuts are unfounded.\n\"I think the current fears that the\neconomic problems of our country\nwill be solved on the backs of\nuniversities are unfounded,\" he\nsaid. \"Higher education will be\nfunded. It's just too important for\nthe federal and provincial governments to ignore.\"\nAlan Earp, president of the\nAssociation of Universities and\nColleges of Canada, said there has\nto be a re-examination of the system\nof financing Canadian universities.\nEarp said university administrations\nshould be consulted on financing to\ndetermine the effects of national\nchanges.\nThe national scope of the funding\nproblem should be dealt with by\ncreating a forum to discuss national\ngoals, said Gordon Robertson,\npresident of the Institute for\nResearch on Public Policy.\nSFU hammers\nforeign students\nCanadian University Press\nVisa students planning to attend\nSimon Fraser University in the fall\nwill face tougher entrance requirements as a result of a senate\ndecision Monday.\nSFU senators accepted a report\nfrom the undergraduate admissions\nboard which recommended increasing the passing score on the Test of\nEnglish as a Foreign Language to\n570 from 550. The TOEFL must be\nwritten by all non-native English\nspeaking students at SFU.\nThe report has \"discriminatory\novertones,\" charged student\nsenator Bill Li twin. Deficiency in\nEnglish is not limited to foreign\nstudents, he said. \"It's a problem\nthat affects every individual in this\ninstitution.\"\nThe report was prompted by concern that many foreign students at\nSFU do not have sufficient English\nskills to complete courses, admissions board chair Hal Weinberg\nsaid.\nThe report said a recent provincial task force on international student policy suggested that \"a\nuniversity re-examine its policy\nshould the enrollment of international students approach eight per\ncent.\" SFU already exceeds the\nrecommended number with 8.4 per\ncent, while UBC has 3.3 per cent\nand the University of Victoria 2.9\nper cent.\nSenate did allow the SFU admissions office to exempt students\nfrom the new score who apply\ndirectly from third world countries.\nThis action allows SFU to\nrecognize the accomplishments of\ntop third world students who have\nnot had a chance to learn English in\nan English environment, admissions board member Kenji Okuda\nsaid. However, the bulk of visa\nstudents, probably 80 per cent,\ncome from Canadian institutions,\nhe added.\nStudent senator Ted McNabb\nsaid the report contravenes the\nlatest draft of the Canadian constitution by being discriminatory.\nMcNabb also felt the TOEFL was\nnot a fair standard for admission.\n\"The TOEFL is totally inadequate\nas a predicter,\" he said. \"Those\nstudents are admitted but not tested\non their academic performance.\"\nStudent senator Larry Hale, who\nsupported the report, agreed problems did exist with the TOEFL,\nand that a correlation can be made\nbetween TOEFL scores and the test\nwriter's family income. But an\nacademic test like the Scholastic\nAptitude Test could not gauge\nEnglish skills, he said.\n\"We are doing no favor to\nstudents if they are allowed in\nwithout English skills,\" he added.\nDiscriminate\nFrom page 1\nwas a problem in the department.\n\"I've never been discriminated\nagainst,\" said third year student\nSandra van Nes.\nOther students said sexism existed in the past but has almost disappeared in recent times.\nJames Caswell, acting head of the\nundergraduate program, is out of\ntown and could not be reached for\ncomment.\n'Don't tell Soroka whore I am'\u2014Hoxha\nFrom page 1\n\"Besides, I want to get my hands on all that\nyankee dough.\"\nAllen Soroka, spokesperson for the UBC\ncommittee against racist and fascist violence, denounced Kenny after hearing of the proposed\nexpansion of nuclear research at UBC.\n\"It's yet another example where the rich,\nthrough their political power, subjugate the\npoor, force them to join the Ku Klux Klan, suppress people's voices like the Communist Party\nof Canada (Marxist-Leninist) and do so many\nmore icky things I can hardly speak of them.\n\"They would never allow that senile fascist\n(Reagan) to be put in a position where he might\nhave to face a head-on, public debate with\nmyself,\" sneered Soroka. \"He would be forced\nto admit the racist and fascist crimes he has committed against humanity.

He might even die.\n\"In any debate he'd only get scuttled \u2014 I'll\nknock him out with my first rebuttal,\" said\nSoroka, striking a boxing pose.\nTrotskyist League club spokesperson Miriam\nMacPherson applauded Soroka. \"Whatever he\nsays, unless we disagree,\" she said.\nAlbanian Communist Party chair Enver Hoxha refused to comment on Soroka's remarks.\n\"Don't tell that nut where you found me,\" he\nsaid.\nNewly re-elected UBC chancellor J.

But what does the board really think?\nIn November the board politely listened to a detailed presentation by\nstudents against tuition fee increases. The board thanked the students and\nthen decided in camera to raise tuition fees by at least 13 per cent. Some\nsay the decision was made beforehand.\nNow in March another detailed brief was presented to the board. This\ntime the response was more lively, and, judging by Peterson's statement,\nrather favorable. Hence the mystery: where does the board really stand?\nAs before, the board thanked the students, went on to other matters,\nbroke for tea, and resumed its meeting behind closed doors. Now, we do\nnot demand that all board meetings be open, but we would like to know\nwhat the board plans to do about tuition and student aid before it does it.\nQuestions, favorable responses, statements of support are all helpful, but\nthey're all intangible. They don't help the student whose bursary and loan\nmoney just ran out, or who didn't have enough money to get into UBC in\nthe first place.\nFor the moment, the board appears to be standing with the students.\nBut all of us \u2014 students, faculty, board of governors and administration \u2014\nare in this cutbacks mess together. Getting more financial aid for students\nis everyone's job.\nThe board is now preparing a letter to the federal-provincial task force\non education funding. At such an excellent opportunity to make a public\nstatement, we should all know what the board is going to say.\nThe students' statement has been made clearly enough.\n'Too bad \u2014 he\nwas a\nbrilliant theorist'\nTHE UBYSSEY\nMarch 5, 1961\nPublished Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays throughout the university year by the\nAlma Mater Society of the University of B.C.

(See how boring the\nentire paper would be if we let student hacks write the whole thing?)\nReport on university's future shocks prof\nBy PHILIP RESNICK\n77if? descent of the university into the market place is the lie\nat the heart of modern society. \u2014 Harold Innis, Political\nEconomy in the Modern State.\nIn recent weeks a document entitled Looking Beyond has\nlanded on the desk of every faculty member at UBC.\nEmanating from the president's office, with a preface by\nDouglas Kenny, it contains two discussion papers that purport to address the future of the university in light of \"the\ndemographic, economic and political changes\" that \"our\nsociety is undergoing.\"\nThe president, never known as a practitioner of participatory democracy, asks faculty members to respond to\nthese documents by sending comments and reactions to their\ndeans. At the same time, he announces the forthcoming\nestablishment of a president's committee to put into effect\nsome or all of the recommendations contained in the two\npapers.\nI believe that the issues raised by at least one of these\ndocuments pose questions that require the greatest possible\nairing and discussion. I am referring to the study by William\nTetlow, director of the Office of Institutional Analysis and\nPlanning, and his collaborator, Robert M. Taylor, entitled\n\"The Constituencies for Post-Secondary Continuing Education in British Columbia.\"\nThis report exemplifies the technocratic orientation that\nhas become the hallmark of the Kenny presidency, and'\npoints the way towards a brave new world in which the\nmarket will have become the and only criterion of \"excellence.\" That such a report should be sent to faculty\nmembers, in lieu of a statement of university philosophy and\npurpose, would in an institution where intellectual values\nstill had some meaning be considered an insult to the whole\nuniversity community. O temporal O mores!\nWhat does the Tetlow report proclaim? A three page summary is provided at the beginning for the functionally illiterate, unwilling or unable to wade through 38 pages of\ntables and graphs. Radical changes are underway in the age\nand educational profile of the Canadian population which\nwill result in \"significant 'revolutions' in all spheres of Canadian life over the next two decades,\" reads the opening\npoint. Passing strange, we might think, in a country which\nhas never known a proper revolution, save for the abortive\nrebellions of 1837, where the governing elites have never\nbeen too soft in politics from below, to have a study\ntrumpeting forth not one, but several, revolutions.\nBut we need not have feared. The 'revolutions' Tetlow and\ncompany have in mind are not of the insurrectionary kind,\nhordes of radical students, cloth-capped proletarians, hippies, lumpens besieging the computing centre in some re-\nenactment of the '60s and the October Revolution rolled into\none. Rather, they refer to revolution in the same way that\nsoft-drink companies speak of the \"Pepsi generation\" and\nsoap companies of the revolutionary quality of their 'new'\nproduct, in other words ersatz-revolution.\n\"The changing nature of our society requires virtually all\ncitizens to gain new skills and intellectual orientations during\ntheir lifetimes,\" argue our new Columbuses in their third\npoint. The knowledge 'revolution? in other words, is upon\nus and dictates that the university become a great big retooling plant for every possible constituency from the mature\nnon-employed to wage earners seeking upgrading, from the\ngeographically mobile to professionals on the make.\nThe knowledge revolution dictates not only that the 'barriers' preventing mature adults from pursuing higher education be removed. It further requires that the very priorities of\nthe university be redefined:\n\"UBC should give priority to the needs of the professional\nand management constituencies because it is unique in having a comprehensive range of professional faculties.\"\n\"UBC needs to establish its presence in downtown Vancouver to better serve some of its adult clientele.\"\n\"UBC needs to assess the potential of electronic\ntechnology to assist it in the delivery of its credit and non-\ncredit programmes.\"\nWhen one examines the full text of the Tetlow report, one\ndiscovers the underlying rationale for the proposed shift of\nthe university's priorities.\nFirstly, there is the demographic premise, namely that the\n25-44 age cohort will have increased in importance by the\nyear 2000. It is with this group that \"political power will\nreside\" and to it that \"resources (will) be committed.\" Or to\ninvoke biblical imagery, \"to them that have much, much will\nbe given.\"\nSecondly, in this scenario for the year 2000, we will be living in a veritable \"post-industrial society,\" with at least 40\nper cent of the Canadian gross national product related to information rather than to goods and services. So Tetlow, aping Daniel Bell or Alvin Toffler, would have us believe, argu-\nperspectives\ning that this stage of society will bring with it new needs and\ngreater emphasis on \"the quality of life.\" This, no doubt,\nexplains why Canadian newspapers of the Southam stripe\nare increasingly replacing old fashioned news of the \"industrial\" or \"pre-industrial\" kind (re the current economic\ndepression or third world bloodshed) with such significant\n\"post-industrial\" features as Leisure and You.\nThirdly, the cost-effectiveness of education must be extended. Faced with mounting criticisms from government\nand society that the university degree is not the sure road to\nprosperity that it was made out to be a decade or two ago,\nuniversity administrations have been forced to change their\npitch. They quote from Statistics Canada studies that show\nlower unemployment rates among those with university\ndegrees than among those with lower levels of formal education \u2014 a second-line defence now that the outer breaches\nhave fallen. It becomes all the more important for the\ntechnocratic planners in our midst to find new economic\njustifications for the expensive network of higher education\nfacilities that has grown up over the last twenty years.\nThe stage is thus set for some of the specific recommendations noted above. The university is to increasingly serve\nmature students in part-time or full-time programmes. It is to\ncompete with the Open Learning Institute and others in offering packaged courses and programmes on off-campus\nlocations, and with BCIT in offering vocational training,\nthough at the upper end of the scale.\nThe report concludes on a crassly mercantile note. It calls\nfor changes in \"third party payments, educational leave\nplans and RRSP plans\" to better finance adult educational\nprogrammes. It calls for streamlining procedures and\npedagogical techniques to address these new constituencies.\nAnd it summons the university to build on its area of\nstrength, \"giving priority to the needs of the professional\nand managerial constituencies.\" The habitue(e)s of Davie\nStreet are at least more candid about their profession.\nMy quarrel lies with the underlying assumptions of the\nTetlow report. Once upon a time liberal university administrators spoke the language of a \"community of\nknowledge\" and \"higher learning.\" Students of my generation had serious doubts about the realities that lay hidden\nbehind these lofty principles, e.g., university complicity in\nweapons  developments  and   war  research,   but  at  the\nrhetorical level university presidents, e.g., Claude Bissell of\nthe University of Toronto, appealed to a venerable intellectual tradition.\nThat rhetoric is obviously no longer necessary today. The\nage of the calculator has displaced that of the public\nphilospher in university administrations. The name of the\ngame is hard-ware and money, one of the main functions of\nthe president's office the maximization of research grants.\nBuilding projects get the highest priority, Discovery Parks\nand TRIUMFS compete at the trough, while boards of\ngovernors mortgage whole faculties and chairs to forestry\ngiants, real estate boards and any one else who will pay the\nshot.\nWhat has become of the social and intellectual ends the\nuniversity was once meant to serve? The social can be summarized under the rubrics the Tetlow report employs, \"cost-\neffectiveness,\" \"managers and skilled labor,\" and \"professionals.\" The intellectual dimension has been neatly reduced\nto marketable packages of managerial and professional skills\nthat the report argues should be UBC's priority. Never mind\nhumanistic or scientific traditions \u2014 the big bucks lie in the\nmarket place and the function of the university in the Kenny\nage is to worship the golden calf.\nIt is no accident that the years since 1975 have not seen one\nsignificant statement from the president's office addressing\nthe intellectual functions of the university. There have been\nannouncements of university expansion, statements about\ngifts and bequests, arguments for increased financing, the\nwringing of hands over \"unavoidable\" tuition increases. But\nnever has the present occupant of the president's office and\nthe people he has surrounded himself with \u2014 industrial relations consultants from the forest council, legalists, boosters\nfor the nuclear industry \u2014 been capable of speaking to the\nphilosophy of higher education with a serious sense both for\nthe past and the future. Nowhere is there recognition of the\ncritical function of the academy \u2014 the need for an arm's\nlength relationship from corporations and government agencies and the gilded professions that seek to channel and capture research and inquiry to their own ends.\nDouglas Kenny likes to speak grandiloquently of the excellence of this university. Excellence is incompatible with a\nnarrow utilitarianism, with faculty functioning as middle\nlevel company personnel, initiating student trainees into\nmanagerial and professional positions.\nThe problems facing this university are not the changing\nage cohort of our students or the supposed five year half-life\nof professionals in the era of the \"information revolution.\"\nThe main problem is the need for commitment to the fundamental function of the university as a centre for critical\nthinking, and to the intellectual enterprise as something other\nthan the pursuit of material gain. It is recognition that the\nsocial responsibility of the university is not to the huge\nforestry, pharmaceutical, real estate or engineering firms that\nwant up-grading for their \"professionals,\" that there are\nlarge sections of society, beginning with the native peoples\nthrough various immigrant groups and much of the Canadian working class, untouched by the blessings of higher\neducation.\nIf we cannot understand this, is it because the corruption\nof the university, to which the Tetlow report attests, has\nalready won through? Unless this report is resisted, we might\nas well bid adieu to knowledge as a vocation and to the\nuniverstiy as anything but a hand-maiden to the well-to-do.\nPhilip Resnick is an associate professor in the political\nscience department in the faculty of arts.

Thursday, March 5,1981\nTHE   UBYSSEY\nPage 5\nLetters\nUnions 'childish'\nMotion defended\nIn response to the article printed\nin The Ubyssey Feb. 27 regarding\nthe holding of a SUB building fee\nreferendum, I would like the opportunity to set the record straight.\nThe impression is given that\ngraduate student representatives\nmerely re-introduced a motion\nwhich Niwinski had decided to drop\nearlier in the evening. The fact is\nthat our motion was fundamentally\ndifferent. I discussed the matter\nwith Niwinski before he left and I\nbelieve that our motion had his\nmoral support. I trust to his integrity in this matter.\nMitchell is quoted as saying,\n\"graduate students . . . deliberately introduced the motion late in the\nevening to ensure that it would\npass.\" I would point out that there\nwas much council business on that\nnight, and that motions from ordinary council members tend to\nwait their turn. The same is true of\nexecutive business, and hence Mitchell's confusion.\nMoreover, I discussed the proposed referendum with both Mitchell and Loftus between 8:30 and 9\np.m. outside of the Council\nChamber. They were both aware of\nthe existence of a formal motion by\n9:05 p.m.\nThe vote was 14 in favor, four\nagainst, and there were 20 Council\nmembers present. It is claimed that\ncouncil was not representative of\n\"true feelings.\" Earlier in the\nmeeting an important motion was\npassed regarding CUP Media Services. There were 26 Council\nmembers present (see The Ubyssey,\nThursday, Feb. 26).\nIn the unlikely event of the six extra votes going in the negative, the\nmotion for a referendum would still\nhave passed. Perhaps what Mitchell\nand Loftus are really complaining\nof is that student council does not\nreflect their feelings.\nWhat is perhaps most noteworthy\nabout Mitchell's position is his lack\nof argument against the referendum. In fact, he has none. I quote\nhis remark to me that it was not\n\"political\" to hold this referen\ndum; he said this when I pressed\nhim to support the motion. He obviously believes that if students are\ngiven a choice, they may not concur\nwith his wishes.\nIt may be expedient to hold on to\nthe money until wearied students\nagree to some scheme which council\nproposes. But if such a scheme is\nworthy of student support, it will\nget it. Meanwhile there can be no\njustification for collecting $15 from\nstudents next year to put into an\nAMS investment account.\nBy holding the building fee\nreferendum, student council can\nonly gain credibility. In conclusion\nI would like to point to the integrity\nwhich the new president, Marlea\nHaugen, showed in accepting the\nclear wishes of student council. Her\ncolleagues might learn from her example.\nSean Boyle\nGSA representative to council\nKevin Rush\nGSA president\nRobert Cameron\nacting GSA representative\nThis is to voice my enthusiastic\nsupport of the views expressed by\nMs. Berryman in her letter of\nMarch 3. While I do not advocate\nthe practice of 'union-bashing', the\nunions should realize that they have\nresponsibilities not only to their\nmembers, but to the public at large.\n\"Freedom, not License\", a\nphrase originated by the child\npsychologist and educator A. S.\nNeill, is applicable here (inasmuch\nas there are many members of the\nunions who are behaving like small\nchildren); the freedom to strike and\nto create picket lines does not give\nthem license to harass and attack\nmembers of the public who have\ndecided to cross (or at least attempt\nto cross) those same lines.\nThe union position, as I have had\nit explained to me, is that those who\ncross or attempt to cross picket lines\nknow beforehand what the possible\nconsequences of that action could\nbe, so that therefore, any injury or\ndamage to that person or his property is thus 'self-inflicted'. Poppycock !\nThere is a parking lot on campus\nthat is presently under siege by the\nmembers of CUPE. The reason for\nthis action is the existence of a\nstorage box labelled G.V.R.D. on\none portion of this same lot.\nTherefore, I am not allowed to\npark in this lot, where I normally\npark, because of the position of the\npicket line. This is an infringement\nof my rights. The picketing of the\nbox I can understand, but why the\nlot?\nNo explanations have been offered by the people on the line \u2014\nsave that this is a legal strike action\nwith the support of the AMS! In addition, it has been explained to me,\nthat if I do cross the picket line\nsomehow, the union will \"arrange\"\nfor my car to be towed away.\nTherefore, I will close by saying\nthat, while there is much to be said\nin favour of the unions, there is little that I can support in their present dispute, having been treated as\nI have.\nGrant Hogarth\narts 3\nMR.

RCMP removed the barricades by noon and\nmanagement workers eventually entered the building to work alongside\nthe occupiers, college spokesperson\nPeter McMullan said.\n\"We're trying to draw attention\nto the fact we're angry and frustrated,\" said Maxine Zurbrigg, CUPE\nlocal 1858 president. \"We've got to\nget people to realize we're serious.\n\"Things are tense. It's not a fun\nsituation.\"\nThe occupiers, equipped with\nsleeping bags, food and games, intend to remain in the building until\n\"serious negotiations\" resume with\nthe Mid-Island Public Employers\nAssociation, Zurbrigg said. But the\nMalaspina administration is already\napplying for a supreme court injunction to remove the CUPE\nmembers, McMullan said.\nThe college is now entering its\nthird week of picketing by members\nof the CUPE local, who, along with\nlocals serving Nanaimo city and\nLadysmith, have been on strike\nsince negotiations with MIPEA\nbroke down.\nAbout 850 vocational students\nare directly affected by the strike.\nThe vocational instructors belong\nto the B.C. Government Employees\nUnion and have honored the picket\nline since it was first established\nmore than two weeks ago. On Monday the instructors also set up sympathy picket lines.\nAlthough most of the vocational\nstudents can resume courses when\nthe strike is over, 96 students in the\napprenticeship program have had\ntheir courses cancelled and have\nbeen sent home, McMullan said.\nMost academic and technical instructors are continuing to cross the\nline, but are becoming increasingly\ndistressed by the situation, instructor Stan Persky said.\nAlthough several instructors, including Persky, refuse to cross the\nlines, the Malaspina College Faculty\nAssociation cannot take collective\naction on the strike because of a\n\"no strike\u2014no lockout\" clause in\nits contract, he said.\n\"We can only act on our own\nconscience when it comes to crossing the picket lines,\" Persky said.\nLRB hit for\n'interference'\nBy NANCY CAMPBELL\nStudents and union members are\noutraged at a B.C. Labor Relations\nBoard decision which forced an employees' union local at the College\nof New Caledonia to withdraw its\npicket lines after a three-day strike\nlast week.\nNo reasons for the cease and desist order were given by the LRB,\nAssociation of University and College Employees spokesperson\nLauma Avens said Wednesday. She\naccused the college and ministry of\nlabor with interfering with a legal\nstrike in order to ensure the Prince\nGeorge college would be functioning during the B.C. winter games.\nThe games begin today and continue until Sunday. Athletes will\nsleep and eat at the campus.\n\"All   the   college   is   concerned\nPicket people\npersist at UBC\nPickets continue to halt construction at UBC's acute care hospital as\nthe municipal workers' strike drags\non.\n\"The picketing will continue until the strike is over,\" union\nspokesperson Dave Samis said\nWednesday. \"The picketing only\nimpairs the construction site, not\nthe operation of the hospital. The\npicketers realize the importance of\nthe hospital. Two of the picketers'\nwives work in the hospital and one\nhas a grandmother as a patient.\"\nPickets surrounded the construction site last week because Greater\nVancouver Regional District\nemployees were found working on\nthe premises.\nConstruction for expanding the\nhospital's cafeteria and building a\ncancer research library was taking\nplace until municipal workers closed the site.\nOn Wednesday the GVRD indicated a willingness to resume\nbargaining with the striking\nworkers, who walked off the job to\nfight for equal pay for inside and\noutside workers and a health care\npackage.\nabout is the games, not our\n182-member bargaining unit,\"\nAvens charged. \"But no event will\nkeep us from exercising our right to\nstrike.\"\nIn a referendum Friday, 87.5 per\ncent of the voting students supported AUCE. During the strike almost all students and most faculty\nmembers refused to cross the picket\nline, Avens said.\n\"AUCE is getting screwed,\" student council member Val Win-\nthrope said. \"And the administration is out for blood \u2014 they've cancelled field trips and programs because of the strike.\"\nAUCE spent six months negotiating a new contract, which was rejected by 93 per cent of the membership. The college had offered a\ntwo-year contract, with 12 and 11\nper cent wage increases.\n\"But we're coming out of a two-\nyear contract which offered six and\nfive per cent, which put us way behind the cost of living,\" Avens said.\n\"The college's offer didn't even\ncover today's cost of living increases, let alone allow us to catch\nup.\"\nThe college did not call in a mediator until after strike notice had\nbeen given, which meant the strike\nfrom Feb. 24 to 28 was legal, Avens\nsaid.\nBut the LRB disagreed, and ruled\nthat the pickets must come down although union members could continue to stay off the job. AUCE\nworkers decided to return to work\non Sunday, however, to encourage\nnegotiations to resume.\nAvens said the call for a mediator\nis \"only a stalling tactic to ensure\nthere is no strike during the winter\ngames.\"\nShe accused the administration of\nbeing \"vindictive.\" Faculty members have been threatened with disciplinary action if they refuse to\ncross the picket lines, and AUCE\nmembers have already had \"discipline letters\" placed in their files,\nAvens said.\nDepending on the results of an\nappeal to the LRB, the local could\nbe back on strike almost immediately, or as late as March 15, she said\n\"I feel the only solution to this\nwhole mess is locking MIPEA and\nthe union in a room together and\nnot letting them out until a settlement is reached.\n\"And the union supports that\nkind of action,\" he added.\nAbout 50 students out of 3,000\nhave refused to cross the picket line,\nMcMullan said.\nThe student society and most students are surprised at the occupation, but are not very militant, Zurbrigg said.\nThe student society held a meeting Wednesday to discuss a possible\none-day walkout to encourage negotiations to resume. No decision\nwas reached, but another meeting\non the same topic will be held today, Zurbrigg said.\n-eric eggertson photo\nUNIVERSITY DRIVES some people so crazy they climb walls, even when the walls are only a few metres wide\nand you can walk around them easily. Competitive atmosphere causes students to have contests in everything.\nNext week watch for Intramurals' competitions in crawling across ceilings and smashing skulls against brick\nbuildings. Frustration finale features freestyle defenestration of professors from Buchanan Tower. Everyone's a\nwinner sooner or later at UBC.\nCollege to close for 'survival'\nMONTREAL (CUP) \u2014 The\ndoors to Dawson College will be\nclosed Monday morning, and they\nwill stay that way until the provincial government finds a permanent\nsite for the college.\nProlonged cheers and applause\ngreeted the unanimous decision this\nweek by the college's board of governors to close the college indefinitely. Dawson, currently sprawled\nover nine sites, has been negotiating\n10 years for a permanent site.\n\"We are fighting for the very survival of the college and this is definitely a step in the right direction,\"\ncollege director-general Robert\nGordon said. \"We've been very\ntimid in the past, but the period of\ninactivity is over. It's time to take\naction.\"\nGordon \"said his administration\nand students must become allies if\nthey are going to get the $22 million\nneeded to purchase a convent to\nhouse the college's 10,000 students.\nGordon even suggested students\nmight have to take militant action.\n\"We may have to send students\nin by the busload to Quebec City to\nmarch in front of (Quebec education minister) Camille Laurin's office. And if that doesn't work, even\nstronger action may be needed.\"\nThe action was timed to coincide\nwith the upcoming provincial election, Gordon said.\n\"If the Liberals get in they won't\nexactly place a unified Dawson as\ntheir top priority. Don't forget, before the Parti Quebecois was elected\nthe Liberals gave us the same run\naround on this issue for seven years.\nWhy should things be any different\nnow?\n\"All it takes is a half hour meeting with the nuns (from the convent), and the matter can be solved\nlike that,\" Gordon said, snapping\nhis fingers. \"Everyone's on our side\nexcept for that big bully in Quebec\nCity.\"\nThe college administration is basing its action on the closing of Sorel\nCEGEP (junior college) last year,\nwhen financial demands were met\nalmost immediately by the provincial government.\nBuzz on thru 10th\nAve. gate % way\nalong   University\nBlvd.\nHONEY\n3 FLAVOURS Er HONEYCOMB\nOne Per     1.51b.   $1.99\n-       Customer 6 lb.      *7.99\n$2\\ on 50 lb.    12 lb.   $15.50\nSavinjfVPurchase  367lb1.25\/lb\nNOTICE OF ANNUAL\nGENERAL MEETING\nThea Koerner House\nGRADUATE STUDENT\nCENTRE\nThursday, March 19,1981\nat 12:30 in the Ballroom at the Centre\nNOMINATIONS\nNOMINATIONS are now baing accepted for thraa positions\non the Board of Directors of the Graduate Student Centre.\nTWO ordinary members shall be elected for a term of one year\nand ONE for a term of two years.\nNomination FORMS are available at the Centre office, until\nTuesday, March 17, 1981 at 4:30 p.m.","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/www.europeana.eu\/schemas\/edm\/hasType":[{"value":"Newspapers","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/purl.org\/dc\/terms\/spatial":[{"value":"Vancouver (B.C.)","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/purl.org\/dc\/terms\/identifier":[{"value":"LH3.B7 U4","type":"literal","lang":"en"},{"value":"LH3_B7_U4_1981_03_05","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/www.europeana.eu\/schemas\/edm\/isShownAt":[{"value":"10.14288\/1.0128865","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/purl.org\/dc\/terms\/language":[{"value":"English","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/www.europeana.eu\/schemas\/edm\/provider":[{"value":"Vancouver : University of British Columbia Library","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/purl.org\/dc\/terms\/publisher":[{"value":"Vancouver : Alma Mater Society of the University of B.C.","type":"literal","lang":"en"}],"http:\/\/purl.org\/dc\/terms\/rights":[{"value":"Images provided for research and reference use only.
