INSIDE UBC â¢ 6 Intramurals â the people's sport By SCOTT McDONALD A lot of you out there probably I think you're a closet Wayne Gretsky or Debbie Brill. Really you do â just think about it. You say to yourself, Tm not Eddie Shack, I'm number or "I can high jump seven feet, just ; me a couple of days to knock off a few pounds." Well, the time has come to prove it. The UBC Intramurals program is for I all of you out there who want to play a bit of sport, meet people and get in shape without the hassles of rigorous training or night flights into Detroit. The range of sports and programs is immense and over 8,000 participated last year in events from broomball to I something called the Turkey Trot. The Intramurals program is divided 3 thre s theo . The ipetitive part. You can I compete either individually or in a group in everything but kick boxing on a tightrope. The second section is the Great Trek I Outdoor Program. The activities are I all non-competitive and take place on eekends. You can snowshoe on Cyp- ss, raft the Thompson river or sail | the Gulf Islands to name a few. The last section is leisure sports. This section used to be called co-rec sports. In addition to such staples as Thursday night volleyball, sports such as inner [be water polo have been added. The mosphere is more relaxed and scores e secondary to having fun. Intramurals is finally holding events for the handicapped too. In the middle of October there'll be a wheelchair | challenge course. It is hoped in the future that a greater number of events will be held. Intramurals is coordinated by Nestor Korchinsky and the < offices are rooms 202 and 203 in War Memorial gym. Because of the incredible interest students have shown in intramurals the last several years (there were over 1,000 runners in. the Arts '20 race last October), Korchinsky says the program is having space problems. Last year there were 34 paid and volunteer people running the program; they had to work out of two small offices in War Memorial gym. Space problems are also affecting the athletic end of intramurals. You'll have to register early this year for soccer, volleyball or basketball because lack of space prohibits them being expanded By the end of the soccer league last year, Mclnnes field near War Memor- | ial gym was a mud bowl and left u usable for four months. Even now has not fully recovered. Korchinsky would like to see athletic facilities at the south end of campus veloped so the athletic administration I can move from War Memorial, enabl- | ing Intramurals to take over.

In addition, the open grassed areas break up the rigid rectangular gridways allowing people to roam freely. The Walking Campus of the future won't look like a road network at all. Imagine walking west on University Boulevard. Meander up a brick pathway. To your left, you spot a friend reading on a bench with a backdrop of vegetation. It doesn't take much for Argyle and Miller to imagine something similar to this. Conceptual plans are already drafted and circulating for criticism and comment. "In the long haul, the campus will take on more of an urban flair," said INSIDE UBC â¢ 9 Argyle. "It is the sort of thing plani dream of. "I see this (the changes) as the firsj step. Over the years maybe more will happen to bring about a Walking Cain- pus." But Miller, who has to deal with turning dreams into reality, said with lack of capital funds reconstructed pedestrian malls are a long way off. For the short term, youTI have to imagine the future walking campus as you dash across Main Mall to the 8:30 But don't dream too much, at least not for the first few weeks. Watch out for Trans Ams.

INSIDE UBC â¢ 12 v to expect .ongratuli nightmare known hoping to settle into year, you already ki Long lineups, mixed up records, administrative buck-passing and general confusion are standard fare at UBC. It would be impossible in this space to provide a full-blown analysis of the University's power structures, but here are a few pointers on how to find your way through the bureaucratic maze. Basically, UBC students face two . sets of bureaucracies; one established by University administrators and one built by students themselves. Both structures are detached and insensitive and hard to gain access to, but compared to the administration, students have a lot more input into the student bureaucracy, affectionately known as the Alma Mater Society. Unfortunately the administration has a far greater impact on your academic life. The AMS funds clubs and committees, operates the Student Union Building and (theoretically) organizes the student body into a coherent voice. But the administration runs the entire academic show; they allocate funding to faculties and departments, decide what courses live and die, operate financial aid and control student housing. At the top of the administrative power structure is Pat McGeer, minister of universities, science and technology. McGeer was once an angry young UBC professor who criticized the Social Credit government for underfunding universities. Today he's a Social Credit policy maker. McGeer's ministry allocates funds to B.C.'s post-secondary institutions. Those funds are channelled through the Universities Council of B.C., which decides how much money goes to each campus. The council is an intermediary body between the universities and the provincial government, and as erged from the dazzling bureaucratic i. If this is your first year, you're probably t UBC. If you're past first re of the s; such takes the heat off McGeer's min- The council is composed of 11 members who are (surprise) appointed by the provincial government for three year terms of office. The council deals with UBC's board of governors, which is (surprise again) dominated by government appointees. The board is composed of eight business people appointed by the government, plus two faculty members, the University chancellor, the administra tion president, one staff representative and two students elected by the student body. The board controls whatever funds the university gets. Based on the recommendations of UBC's administration and senate, the board sets the university's budget including the level of tt nfees. : deter Meanwhile, the academic guidelines. From it gives life to new courses and kills old courses, and is supposed to ensure there are enough academic resources, such as libraries, for students. Senate is composed of 88 people, 17 of which are students, five students are elected at-large, and each faculty chooses its own representative. The student voice on both bodies is weak, but as UBC's financial situation worsens students are getting increasingly vocal. Most of the board business is conducted behind closed doors, but senate meetings are open. Much of the work for both bodies is done by specific committees. Students get token representation. The administration itself is composed of University president Doug Kenny and an array of vice presidents, and a vice provost. The administration takes care of the day to day management of the University and represents the University to the public. There used to be a vice president who took care of student concerns, but in an administrative shuffle two years ago, students were left with only a part-time provost â registrar Ken Young. Starting in January, a metallurgy prof, Neil Riseborough, takes over the job full-time. Each of the 12 faculties has its own dean and its own internal structure. Depending on the individual dean, there are different levels of student input into faculty decisions. Students have representation at- all faculty and department meetings but positions are often vacant because students are unaware of their right to representation. It is not always a highly publicized right. INSIDE UBC « Throughout the entire administrative structure, from the government to department heads, there are continual political squabbles and power struggles. It seems each person in a position of power frantically treads water to stay afloat, creating more and more waves of bureaucracy. -f d then there's the student bureaucracy â the AMS. Every student at UBC is a member of the AMS, which is governed by Student Council. Each faculty has representation on Council based on the faculty's size. Each faculty also has its own set of rules on how to appoint representatives to Council, and each process is supposed to be democratic. The AMS has a five-member executive elected at large. They are president, vice president, director of finance, director of administration and coordinator of external affairs. In recent years the executive had a reputation for being aloof and inaccessible but this year's crop is relatively easy to reach. Their offices are on the second floor of SUB. Student Council appoints various committees, including the Student Administrative Commission, the budget committee and the programs committee. They take care of operating SUB, providing funds to clubs, and organizing student events. Council also hires several staff members to help keep the society flowing smoothly, including general manager Charles Redden. In theory, AMS staff are directed by Council but, for better or worse, the staff often seems to choose its own course. Student Council meetings are open â to all students but they are usually long, tedious affairs. Each faculty also has its own execu- ' tive to coordinate student activities. The executive is elected by students in the faculty, and each faculty has a different level of activity and priorities. This brief explanation of the powers that be at UBC is far from complete. For example, no mention was made of the dearth of women, to name one problem, at all levels of the power struc- If you need assistance in wading through the bureaucratic maze at UBC, turn to the list of services printed in this magazine. But there are a couple of other important factors in the game of power at UBC which can be turned to for information and advice. One is the students for an accessible education, an ad hoc group that works with Student Council to voice concerns over tuition fees and financial aid. They can be reached through the AMS external affairs office. The other is the student media. Both CITR radio and The Ubyssey newspapers are funded by the AMS and are open to all students. They provide the news of the day, and seek to be in touch with what's happening at UBC. For information or advice give them a call.D heading in waves of bnreancracy In theory, UBC is an autonomous institution, but a letter written last year to UCBC chair Bill Gibson from Walter Stewart, McGeer's deputy minister works to dispel that theory. In the letter, Stewart urges expansion of rnedi- administration but adds: "These increases will have to be compensated â probably overcompensated â by decreases in lower priority areas. . . It is better to have a smaller number of better qualified and respected graduates than a larger number with more dubious qualifications. . ." So much for UBC's autonomy. ip emember all the shuttle diplomacy j this summer? Alexander Haig in London and Buenos Aires; Philip Habib in Lebanon and Tel Aviv, and Gray McMullen in the Registrar's and Finance offices? Who is Gray McMullen? McMullen is the Alma Mater Society's special envoy to where ever students have problems dealing with any level of UBC's bureaucracy. He is one of about 25 people working as Ombudspersons for the upcoming year and coordinates the functioning of the office. Go to the Ombuds office if you have any trouble or questions about anything. They will direct you to the proper person and in most cases directly aid students by writing letters or making a phone call. "It is very strange how the University runs," says McMullen. "The formal structure and informal structure are quite different. The formal structure is not that complete." So even if you think you know the formal channels to solve your problem or none exist in the first place, contact the Ombuds office. They may have a better or new approach to dealing with the problem. Confused? tarn to ombaddy The office has a high success ratio in helping students. But in recent years business as declined. "People are worried about the result of an inquiry â either the plaintif or the other party. But anyone who has dealt with the office knows we use a soft approach. We're not out to get people in trouble so they deal with us," says McMullen. A side benefit arising out of a problem or complaint brought to the Ombuds office is that a follow up is done. As much as possible, without destroying confidentiality or confidence, the Ombuds office circulates reports reports to different levels of the bureacracy and the AMS to assure the problem doesn't occur again. By bringing up personal gripes and problems, 0k it Confused A ' A, * students help others in the future. The office itself is run by the volunteers. Each volunteer contributes to the operation. The office is always looking for, and welcomes new people interested in helping others. Says McMullen, it is a good way to become intimately acquainted with the University structure and functioning. Two special days are planned for this academic year. â Complaints Days, Oct. 1 and Jan. 21. Booths will be set up around campus where students can vent all the things that have been bugging them about the place. The Ombuds office is conviently located in SUB 100A, directly across from the candy counter in the SUB concourse.

Like the one in 1963, when 3,500 students walked to the Bayshore Inn and blitzed the province to collect more than 220,000 signatures. Or like the second Great Trek in 1957. That was another campaign to save UBC from a stingy government. What people think about the treks is interesting. Few believe they were a form of protest, or even a political activity. Students were just standing up for what should be and what was being threatened. No, not politicalâlike human rights, not political. But the treks and marches affected government. UBC was built, the University survived attempts to close its doors, and more money came to allow more students to get a quality education. In 1982, education is threatened again. It is threatened financially. The B.C. government doesn't have the money. That is true. But education is threatened in other ways. Education is not a priority with the Social Credit govenment. For next year, early indications are that UBC will receive no budget increaseâa net reduction by the same percentage as the rate of inflation. The priorities of the Social Credit government are to throw out the first pitch at B.C. Place, to put ALRT on track, and to burn cut-rate B.C. coal in Japanese blast furnaces. B.C., unlike Alberta and the other eight provinces, is the only one continuing with mega- And while finances at UBC are eroding, the University is under constant pressure to relinquish its autonomy. More and more, by cutting research funds, the University turns to corporations or foundations for money. They then decide what research is done. Academic freedom? This edition of Inside UBC, features three stories which talk about the Great Trekâabout how this place operates and about the problems affecting the University. But after you've read what J.V. Clyne, Doug Kenny and the AMS executive have to say, you'll still be left with the decision of what to make of this years Trek. Oh yes. This years trek commemorates the sixtieth aniversary of the first Great Trek. The AMS, the Alumni Association and the University have a series of events planned. â¢ A dance, October 16, with a 1920s â¢ October 20, a beer garden. â¢ The annual arts '20 relay from the old campus to the present site, October 21. â¢ Also on October 21, a founders din- . ner with survivors of the early years. â¢ The Great Trek â a parade and barbeque, October 22. The Aniversary Trek has the potential to be a party or a political activity or both - a celebration of UBC's resilience in the past and a way of assuring a meaningful future. â¡ INSIDE UBC â¢ 16 By CRAIG BROOKS In 1922 they marched to build a university. Fed up with government delays in building UBC's Point Grey campus, more than 1,000 UBC students â almost the entire population of the struggling university â marched from the former campus, in shacks near Vancouver General Hospital, to the undeveloped campus site Ther â¢mch a then â only the skele building, for which construction naa been suspended since 1914. World War I and financial roadblocks had stopped further construction; but meanwhile, UBC's Fairview campus was strained to to school. UBC's student population swelled to 1,200. Students attended classes in a nearby church and an unused section of Vancouver General Hospital, remembers J. V. Clyne, a member of the graduation class of Arts '23. dyne is currently UBC's chancellor - the ceremonial head of the University elected by alumni and faculty. "When I arrived as a freshman (in 1919), it was rather expected that the University would be built at Point Grey next year . . . everyone thought it was just around the corner," recalls Four years later, the skeleton of the Science building, now the Oxford-style grey stone section of the chemistry blocks still sat unfinished. Students took action. "Ab Richards was president of the Alma Mater Society then, and he and I were very good friends. He said he i his The Id like to do something significant of office. I suggested we a campaign to build a university o we formed a campaign commit- th 10 other students, the great o build UBC began, paign included three main to the B.C throui publicize the need foi and a presentation legislature. "We got (English department head) Garnett Sedgewick to help us draw up the wording of a petition to the government. The students took them home with them in the summer of 1922 and when UBC reopened in September, we had 17,000 signatures," Clyne says. In October the students petitioned Vancouver residents, swelling the petitions to nearly 60,000 signatures, at a time when the province's population was substantially less than today's. And to top off the week of activity, students held a parade. With floats and banners, more than a thousand students marched through downtown Vancouver, heading to the unfinished INSIDE UBC â¢ 17 "I am afraid the University would have fallen apart without the Trek" - J. V. Clyne campus. Participants carried pebbles 3 the end of the march and placed thern into the hollow inside of a sti n, which still stands today outside the Bookstore. This parade later became known as the Great Trek for a eason unknown to Clyne. "The idea (of the campaign) was to ;et as much public support as we could," says dyne. "It wasn't a student rebellion as some people make pathy of the public of B.C. to build the Uni rsity." November 7, students placed their 5ase for a university before the B.C. legislature. The campaign committee had solicited the support of Liberal MLA Ian MacKenzie. n the gallery when he (MacKenzie) rose to speak," says Clyne. "The page boys brought in the petitions, which were individually rolled and tied with bits of green and gold ribbon. It was quite a dramatic moment. The speaker's chair was practically covered with petitions." an unprecedented move, the legislature adjourned into committee to hear a presentation from four students representatives. 'The MLA's were very interested and sympathetic and we felt satisfied the government was going to do something," says Clyne. The headline on the following edition of The Ubyssey tells the rest: GOVERNMENT SEES THE POINT. Clyne says government action was in response to overwhelming public support. "The public reaction was very good. People wanted to see the University built. There was a really good feeling for the University at that time," says , Clyne. The entire movement was planned and executed by students, with no open cooperation from the administration. "It was wise to leave it in that form, so it would not be seen as though University administration was trying to increase their salaries, and to demonstrate that students wanted the University built." With the $3 million grant from the of what is now the math, old administration, auditorium, geography and main library centre block began. The skeleton of the science building, there since 1914, became a building. The basic campus was completed in 1926. In September that year UBC moved, leaving its former home for the future growth of VGH. The entire campaign came at a critical time in history according to Clyne. Construction finished just before the stock market crash in 1929. "If we hadn't started to build then we would have run into the depression and the University wouldn't be what it is today. There was a decided feeling in the '30s amongst certain portions of the business community that the University should close. "I am afraid the University would have fallen apart," says Clyne. Of the 60th anniversary of the Trek, Clyne says, "it might be very amusing and it might be a good thing for the University to look back on." But Clyne doubts that another Trek would be effective in lobbying against current provincial operating fund cuts. Since the University is now built, it what. In 1922 the question was one of survival. "I don't think it would be very effective as a method of putting pressure on the government," Clyne says. "The all have to cooperate in getting along until we are finished with this recc "I think the public at large is sy: pathetic to the University but other hand the public is very sensitive to the lack of provincial funds. Generally, the public realizes we have And the University community has changed too, says Clyne. "In those days people t all University events. We £ other. We all knew our professors. It was a very close community." Clyne blames today's rampant student apathy on the large and much less personal, University community. With the current economic condi- guidelines, UBC is facing perhaps its greatest crisis since the "build or die" days of the Great Trek.D :he FACULTY RESIDENCE . . . UBC's second building JLFoug JVenny Reflections on power and governing. By Arnold Hedstrom Today I am saying to myself the same words I said to myself one September day in 1943 when I first arrived on this campus as a student. "What am I doing here?" And now I would like to repeat that question in another form and more seriously: "What are we all doing here?" âinaugural address of administration president Douglas T. Kenny, 1975 After eight years as UBC president, Douglas Kenny still questions 'what we are doing here.' But in 1982, questioning what we are doing here has added signifigance. Kenny is starring his last year as administration president. Many are wondering how much of Kenny's philosophy will linger. In a year, a new president will have to deal with disgruntled deans and stingy governments. What vision will guide the University in the future? Despite funding cutbacks and shortfalls which have plagued his presidency, Kenny remains optimistic about UBC's future. But today, Kenny warns that the academic enterprize faces fiscal uncertainty. If the University community does not exhibit the same concern that founded the Point Grey campus in 1922, excellent departments will be irreparably damaged. The 1922 Great Trek, says Kenny, symbolizes the fact that inspite of set backs, the University has gone forward. He says it is the Great Trek spirit that has advanced UBC intellectually, in some fields beyond older European and Ivy League schools. "I think it (the University) is something all British Columbians and Canadians can take pride in. But the Trek does symbolize that period when the University moved to the Point Grey campus. Today it is a reminder that through organization, students, I faculty, all groups can accomplish things with the government of the day." Alluding to the dedication of students then, Kenny points out that many students who participated in the Trek are still associated with the University today. Their concerns says Kenny were and are the same as students currently attending UBC â a student still wants high quality educa- "It is that s n of excellence that INSIDE UBC â¢ 19 moves society forward. That is what motivates people. I don't think the University has changed that radically." Kenny says the purpose of universities are as they were in the early 1900s: to do teaching and research. "Advances depend on that thin stream of excellence. Society moves forward from research and it gets good value in that respect," says Kenny. In addition, society needs a well educated base population, to keep pace. "If we don't educate then Canada will become a backwater nation. It only takes one Kenny throughout his presidency consistently advanced these themes. But in 1977 a marked change took place. His inaugural address stressed that universities should ideally be apolitical and governed by individuals, the women and men in offices, classrooms and labs. Those same people began to pressure Kenny to become more political and defend the University's funding position. Since 1977 Kenny has been caught between those two dichatomies: political versus apolitical administration and decentralized versus centralized power. Politically, Kenny started to take the plight of the University to the public. He says the public should be concerned but more than that the public should be willing to go to the government. "Go back to the Great Trek, I think establishing a first class university. "Look, fifty cents of every dollar generated in B.C. is from the forestry : industry and this has a lot to do with UBC's forestry faculty. We need students from that professional faculty to preserve that industry. "But that's only one example. We need a group of people dedicated to health care: in medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, and all the professions. By training people society gains and research improves the quality of life by helping people. "I would equally argue that society also gets a good return on its dollars by educating people in the liberal arts. Canada wants its own art, and we take pride in our music, theater and people who understand the world. As the world becomes smaller we better have a broad understanding of it." Achievements like those in medicine, forestry, and the arts are what will convince the community of the university's value says Kenny. He adds public relations involves all parts of the University: faculty, students staff and administrators. "It's a continuing ongoing program. There is an awareness developing because of the general economy of the nation and the world. UBC has support from community leaders because a large number of them are graduates. They and society gained. And note the gain to society is far more important than the personal gain," says Kenny. But if UBC has the support of com ments have to be careful where cuts ai made," warns Kenny. With the inflation rate running we above UBC's 10.8 per cent budget ii crease from the Universities Council, (22 per cent for library books, 17 per cent on scientific equipment, and ii determinant amounts for wages and salaries at this point) Kenny says 1 concerned. "We all have concerns. What will the impact of recession be on students returning to university? All studies show in a down swing that there is increase in enrolment. I think there would only be a down swing if parents were unemployed. I don't think Vi "One can't help but be concerned about provincial government revenue: whether they'll be up or down is very uncertain," munity leaders, many of whom are in the Social Credit provincial government, including universities minister Pat McGeer, the support has yet to be demonstrated in funding allocations to the University. In part the financing will go up when the economy improves, but there has been a bit of downgrading of education, particularity in Ontario, says "In the '60s they (governments) put a high premium on education. In the '60s they were committed but they realized the costs were high. At about that time the economy worsened. The public said, 'Can't you cutback." But govern- there yet although some people hurting," says Kenny. Kenny's t other major concerns centre on f ding from governments. "One can't help but be concerned about provincial government revenue: whether they'll be up or down is very uncertain. A third concern is the funding debate between the provincial government and the federal government. If that doesn't get resolved it is another uncertainty. I have no doubt the federal government wants to m tain funding but they want a sa have no doubt they want a say not ly in the way of recognition but they also want a say in the direction.

There is blue sky over there. The rapid development will continue, with blips, on our long exciting voyage." On the issue of academic freedom, which to some means increasing government and corporate involvement in research by directing funding, Kenny says academic freedom will always be preserved â the researcher deal with maintaining excellence and flexibility in face of stable funding. With the ' bulk of funding going towards salaries, Kenny saw the need to free up funds and create "mobile money" to react to changes in enrolment and academic priorities. In the 1981-82 academic year the problem became critical. Faced with a $7.4 million deficit, Kenny struck the Retrenchment Committee to recom- There is no doubt that the Steady State Report's recomendations would have made retrenchment easier to deal with.

"The idea was to advanced for its day," says Kenny. "It was too early. But having said that, I think it is still valid and should be looked at very closely." Steady State had problems besides being advanced too early. It challenged the traditional power structure at UBC. It threatened tenure, the liberal arts and played into the hands of governments who want to control the operations of the University â direct funds away from arts and science to professional schools. The academic community reacted negativley to the "The Steady State is a good example of something on high. It is the president's responsibility to the University to provide guidance but if you don't have support from the bottom. . . "The power is everywhere at' this University. It works from the bottom up. It is a highly decentralized University. The decisions for the long ran work through the departments, to the faculty, and then senate. The bottom is where the strength lies. The bottom has had the intellectual strenght and power to move us forward." Kenny returns to the Great Trek. He says the legacy of 1922 is the rapid advance of the University because it built â¢ strong departments and supported the faculty. They attracted top students and graduates says Kenny. Today, the same applies. "Chemistry, zoology, " :s, you support them and hav ioned those departments V y then alotn "There are high risks involved ii high declarations from above/' Two years after the Steady State Report, at the request of the Universities' Council of B.C., Kenny con ed a comprehensive statement about the University's goals in the '80s â Mission of the University of British Columbia.

The message of the Mission is that admission standards, periodic review of departments and high quality people will be the key to fulfilling^ goals outlined in the Mission repo ' not strong centralized leadership.

INSIDE UBC â¢ 21 Student Government: AMS Balancing services against political activity. The perpetual dilemma that transcends time â even after a mickey of scotch. By ARNOLD HEDSTROM AMS EXECUTTVE 1977-78 JL All this happened more or less. The interview parts, anyway are pretty much true. I really did go back to committee room 260 in 1982. This time as Inside UBC editor. I went there to interview the Alma Mater Society executive: Dave Frank, James Hollis, Cynthia Southard, and Cliff Stewart. Student Council. The words evoke nostalgic memories for an ex-hack (former executive member) interviewing new hacks. SUB 260 is an echo chamber. There should be no trouble recording their words, dreams. Everything gets magnetically arranged on tape at least six times before fading into the walls. "I was reading through some of the old Insight magazines and each year previous executives say 'we're going to decrease the apathy and increase student participation." "Fuck it," says president Dave Frank with a laugh in reply to vice president Cliff Stewart's comment. "We're going INSIDE UBC â¢ 22 to increase apathy and decrease student participation." That sounds more like what is usually happened in the past, I think to myself. "We are in fact working, and the University administration has given us quite a bit of help in this respect, to in- ofci npusi student participati campus. What we are looking at doing is increasing services to students and also increasing political awareness," says Stewart. problem that's plagued tcils for the AMS be all things to all students? And even if it can, will apathy decrease â participation increase. This executive seems determined to try. As Stewart says, the university administration is making things easier. The administration amassed a $6.^ "We want to make people more aware of the history of the campus that has been built on student involvement." âDave Frank, President million surplus in 1981-82. In June, the executive armed with a strongly worded motion from Student Council attacked the administration at a press conference for not being up front with students. The surplus was not disclosed until June even though it was apparent earlier. And who new that $7.4 million in cuts that year would contribute to a surplus anyways? Also over the summer, Council passed a motion to permanently locate a licensed lounge in the former art gallery space. Some people called the Council iconoclasts. But Council contacted the curators of the Vancouver Art Gallery to consult on a superior art gallery to be built in the Southwest corner of the SUB conversation pit. The changing face of SUB also saw the games area renovated and plans made for minor changes, like new paint, in the Pit. The executive has already made strides towards the twin tasks of providing services and being political. As the fall approaches, expect more of this philosophy. "You have to balance services and politics, and I think we've got the ideal situation. Our staff are more or less hired for services â to continue the status quo," says Frank. "What was done the year before â the staff is there to make sure it happens again. "Anything new, which includes the political aspects, which change from year to year, is handled by Student Council." What is in store for students this year? The major political action at least in the fall, will be events in conjunction with the sixtieth anniversary of the Great Trek. In 1922 when students walked from the old Fairview campus near Vancouver General Hospital to Point Grey, they probably didn't realize the march would come to symbolize the University's struggle for excellence in face of a reluctant public and stingy government. "If you're going to use the Trek, you have to do it right, the Great Trek is very close to people at this University," says external affairs coordinator Cynthia Southard. It is her job to keep Council informed of federal and provincial education policies and with Council support let governments know how students feel. The Great Trek will be a major tool for that. Says Frank, "We want to make people more aware of the history of the campus that has been built on student involvement. It came about because students cared about the campus and went on the Great Trek." Since then students have continued to care â "What we are looking at doing is increasing services to students and also increasing political awareness." âCliff Stewart, Vice-president built buildings when governments 1 wouldn't, bought books for the library and lobbied for more funding. "This campus," adds Frank, "is probably unique in North America in that it has | been influenced by student activitie more than other campuses." I drift to another time. It must be ai other time - 1977-78. Across from m. is board rep Moe Sihota and AMS | president John Demarco, to the left ai sies Fran Watters and Kate Andrei., and to the right engineering president Joe Uyesugi. We are talking about how much students have put into this place. The National Student Day Committee is about to meet. External affairs officer Paul Sandhu enters the room. We start, but the topic doesn't change. The B.C. government has got a free ride from students. They didn't have to build an indoor pool (the Aquatic Centre), a student services building (Brock hall), a 3,000 seat gym (War Memorial 8ym), or a hockey arena (Thunderbird INSIDE UBC â¢ 23 "If you're going to use the Trek, you have to do it right. The Great Trek is very close to people at this University." âCynthia Southard, External Affairs Coordinator Winter Sports centre). They had help Building student residences. In my native Alberta, the government did all that. I ask, j "How important is the philosophy .that students take a hand in doing things! " Stewart's voice replies, "Extremely important at this point in time. What we are looking at is the whole concept of a university under fire from the provincial government. "If the students don't stand up to the government, who the hell will7" Frank adds, "As far as the facilities go, because students put a lot of money into this campus, they have a lot of control over the facilities. When students walk into the Pit that is the AMS Pit and when they buy a ticket at the ticket outlet, that is the AMS Ticket centre ... the same with the pool, the hockey arena and War Memorial gym. These were set up. by students and are run by student paid staff and or students on management committees." The AMS is a large and complex organization. It conducts business transactions for hundreds of clubs and subsidiary organizations. It manages businesses like the Copy centre and represents students at all levels of university governance from the board right down to the department in an individual faculty. Students sit on administration advisory committees. In addition, it has committees from student council working on such diverse concerns as student housing and entertainment. . It takes money. Money which is often lost in a large organization waiting to be found or at times nonex- "Money as usual will be fairly tight," says finance director James Hollis. "One of the things I've been really focusing on and will continue to focus on is a lot of the internal operations â the cost of goods we're merchandising in our businesses. A'lot of little things really add up," he says. Since entering office, and especially since his employment started for the summer, Hollis has also uncovered a few not so small cost savings. "I uncovered about $4,000 in overpayments on insurance premiums. When I entered office, a lot of things were happening because that was the way they had always happened in the past. I've been focusing on alternatives and that is what I'll continue to do for the next short while." But in the spring, Hollis may have to start working on a fee referendum. "This year the real savior of the day was the games area absolutely. Had we not discovered that, by looking at an alternative supplier and spiffing up the games room so we could generate more dollars, we would have been in a very bad way. Absolutely no question." "Inflation is eating into our student fee," interjects Frank. "I think we are going to have to ask students in the spring to either attach the student fees to the rate of inflation or to come up with a flat fee increase." The AMS fee has only been increased once since 1949. The current fee of $10.50 seems ridiculously small compared to $50 or $60 fees at other universities. Most of the revenue used businesses and building rentals. The last fee increase was in 1978-79. It went up $1.50 but it took two tries. The first campaign featured blaring music, Jackson Browne's Running on Empty. Too gimmicky. The next campaign INSIDE UBC â¢ 24 Other organizations are planning tee referenda this year too. According to Southard, the AMS promised the Canadian Federation of Students a membership vote this spring, â their fees $7.50.

They'll probably give us the extention because were such a large university and they need us," she says. Silence. "What shall we talk about "Let's talk about who controls the money," says Southard. "So who C( trols the cash7" I ask. "Without the constituency organizations and clubs we would be a shallow organization." âJames Hollis, Director of Finance "We've kind of reached the point where we are taking the direction students say they want us to take and running with it rather than saying we're going to do this and going off and doing it," says Stewart. 'Tine, we had to lay down a platform to get elected but then we still need input and you can't blame students for not giving it. "You've got to go out and say, 'this is the channel come and use it.' Four heads knod with agreement and Frank adds, "Basically we've been elected to work for students. We haven't been elected to dictate to students. We're trying to get that across. We have to get feedback from students or we're not going to do what they want." One of the major ways students have input other than coming up to the AMS offices is through Student Council. Every faculty and school has representation proportional to the number registered. Stewart says this Council has reps from faculties that ven't shown their faces for about e years. The executive, in terms of power, are equal to other Council members. "We (the executive) have a huge advantage this year. We have an excellent Student Council. I don't know Dugh of AMS history but I would stack this Council against anything that has happened ever," says Frank. 'Ever,' I think. That would include the Council I was on. "This Council represents a large number of people on this campus. "When I look around the table at meetings, I'd say together people probably know half the people on this campus. It is phenomenal," continues "This year we have a Student Council that is excellent. It could run everything â like they are responsible and they know what is going on, " says Southard and Hollis adds, "Council is much stronger and aware of what is going on. It is probably very difficult to get various motions through, certainly more difficult than a few years ago. Two or three years ago Council was largely run by the executive. There is no way that is the case now." We move on to the final topic. No not the final topic â the one we started out with â apathy and participation. What is the best way to deal with the AMS or get involved in its operation? Hollis says, and the rest of the executive quickly concure, that the door is always open. It is as easy as dropping by the office he says. In addition, says Hollis, the constituencies and the clubs are by and large the AMS. Without the constituency organizations and the clubs we would be a shallow organization." "We have positions on AMS cc mittees which are within the Society and there are presidential advisory committees where students have input into the operation of the University, says Stewart and Southard adds, "If we're ever going to get people interested in the AMS, this is the year. Some of the committees are excellent." Frank concludes their interview, and my trip to the past, by saying the president of the sailing club, the volunteer at Speakesy, that person on the committee and so on, are in responsible positions. They are working for a large number of students â that is the AMS. Outside 260, life goes on. Before I make it to the office door, AMS business manager Charles Redden corrals me and asks how the handbook is going, "Are the expenses on schedule." I look at him in a puzzled way. No That night I go home to type up the interview. But before I start I pour myself a scotch and pull out Insight 77. ,e21. 'PRESENTING YOUR AMS EXECUTIVE ... or Young Turkeys, 59 cents a pound.'

This specially designated space, called the UBC Women's Centre, is tucked away in the northwest corner of SUB's main concourse. The Centre provides a comfortable lounge area and a reference library with feminist journals and newspaper clipp ings, many of which j in the University's libraries. "There needs to be a place available for women to come to that is free of men," says Sally Brisebois, a member of the Women's Centre collective. 'There needs to be a library which has books written by or about women and information of particular interest to The primary function of the Centre is educational. Women who come to the Centre to sit and relax can share information, take part in political discussions and organize themselves to i specific issues that affect women on campus. They can bring their grievances to the Centre and get a sympathetic ear and information on how to deal with problems. "We believe women leam by doing," says Brisebois. "Women working in the Centre learn to speak up for themselves and learn that their voice is important." The Centre operates as a collective; there is no one person in charge â no hierarchy. Women who use the facilities and attend meetings become members of the collective. Meetings, held INSIDE UBC â¢ 28 each week, allow.women to express their thoughts and opinions. Plans and decisions are arrived at by consensus. The Centre belongs to several women's organizations, including the National Action Committee on the Status of Women, the B.C. Federation of Women and the Vancouver Status of Women. These organizations send their publications and studies to the Centre where they are referenced in a highly visible filing system. Many women on campus have never worked with an all-women's group but find the experience valuable for creating self-confidence and a feeling of self- worth, and for contributing to an important cause. For these reasons, the space is set aside specifically for women, although interested men are welcome to. participate in many of the Centre's activities and use the reference The Centre has evolved over the past 11 years to its present location and status as part of the Alma Mater Society. It has maintained a shaky e ethev collectiv. first set up in 1971. It was then that a group of women implemented the first non-credit women's studies program, organized the first Women's Week at UBC, formed a collective and applied for space in SUB to establish the Women's Office. The AMS granted space on the second floor. The Office operated as a drop-ir centre for counselling, referral and information. But in 1976 it was given i notice of eviction and asked to submit a constitution to the Student Adminis trative Commission (the administrativ body of the AMS) complying wit! SAC's club policy. The Women's Office did not wan the status of an AMS club because its political and financial autonomy would be compromised. Besides, as one woman said at the time, "Women's liberation is not a club." Instead, it agreed to take the status of an AMS which r, t its fin; be approved, but in return it was given a share of the AMS budget and space. The Office moved to SUB 130, its present lpca- tion, and changed its name to Women's Committee. "We still had to go to the budget committee every time we wanted to spend a dime," says Brisebois. Eventually the AMS changed the Committee's status to that of a service organization â the Women's Centre. It now receives a lump sum of money annually. But in 1980, the AMS dealt another blow to the Centre. It slashed the budget request from $8,000 to $800. We saw it as a move to get rid of the Centre because it was a political body. We were a voice on campus," says Brisebois, adding that an anti- feminist feeling prevailed on Student Council. "In the fall, we stormed Council, and demanded time to make a presen- on," she says. Council subsequently asked the budget committee to reconsider. We narrowly won what we wanted. We were wary of S.C. after that experience.

For the past two years the AMS has approved the Centre's budget, not given any eviction notices or complained about its activities. Brisebois says the activity level should pick up this year, but it all depends on the wort who form the collective in Sep- The Centre in the past has organized speakers, workshops and seminars to try to stimulate women and men on campus into considering alternatives to a sexist lifestyle and to alert the campus to specific issues. For example, instead of demonstrating and vigorously protesting against the Lady Godiva Ride, an annual event taged by engineers in which a naked voman on a horse parades around campus, last year the Centre sponsored â enings of documentaries about pornography in the hope that viewers would see the connection between the ride and the degradation of women. It has sponsored Wendo self-defence :ourses, workshops on assertiveness training and non-sexist relationships, speakers on birth control, rape, abortion, the law, career planning, daycare and breast self-examination. Brisebois says there will be one major feminist speaker coming to campus this year.

D SEXUAL HARASSMENT By KATHY FORD Your male professor starts making suggestive remarks about your appearance. Or the man for whom you are a teaching assistant becomes uncomfortably friendly, and then later fails you because you don't play along. Or a prof makes sexist remarks about women during his lectures. Or one outright propositions you, and threatens you with low marks if you won't comply. These are all forms of sexual harassment, and they can and frequently do happen at this University. Forget anything you ever learned about a university being a bastion of enlightened thinking; when it comes to sexual politics, it's'no different from an office where the boss sexually coerces his female staff. In fact, at UBC there isn't even a formal procedure by which a student can get some action from the administration when she complains about an offending professor. It all has to do with the infamous old boys' network that exists here. Men hold almost all positions of authority at UBC, and they close ranks when one of them is threatened. Academic power is just as, well, powerful as any that exists in the real world, and people don't hesitate to use it. So what do you do if you believe you're, being sexually harassed? The best place to go is the Women Students' Office, located in Brock Hall (across from Buchanan). Here you'll find some sympathetic ears and a lot of moral support. They'll also give you some concrete suggestions about how to handle the situation, if that's what you need. In addition, the office keeps track of the kinds of harassment that are reported. If you decide to go straight to the prof's department head (if he's the head, you'll have to try the dean. Heaven help you if it's the dean...), be prepared to be disbelieved. You'll probably be asked to prove it, and even if the prof has come right out an propositioned, or threatened, you, that could be difficult. If the situation is one where the prof mostly makes sexist remarks in class, and there are other women who find him offensive, try a group confrontation with him, if you think he isn't likely to penalize you. â¢ Whatever you do, don't endure it in silence, thinking y.ou must have somehow encouraged it. You're probably not the first student he's harassed, and he's certainly not the only culprit on faculty. Do not think you're isolated and "guilty" of something. It's true that a few women do play up to male professors, an unfortunate result of traditional » encourages women to ahead. But many women are quite naive, and don't realize what's happening until it's too late. Not all professors who sexually exploit their female students do it overtly. Even if you're not 100 per cent sure j professor is coming on to you, it's , good idea to tell someone, if only t< get some reassurance. Again, the Women Students' Office is a. good place to go. If enough women refuse to play along with this game, we might begin to change things. Perhaps one day the University will follow the lead of the provincial human rights branch and implement some sort of system for dealing with such things. But first w must make it clear we won't put up with it any longer. â¡ INSIDE UBC â¢ 29 flje tttwferftnJ ShPP The one-of-a-kind on-campus student store.

Because no definitive method is used to decide how much aid will be needed in the coming year, the awards office situation. Student Council wants some assurance that if students are economically battered by the disastrous summer, they can still continue their education.' In June, The Alma Mater Society drew up six demands they wanted the University's board of governors to act on. The board controls the University's finances. Included in the list of demands was that "monies be set aside for a student aid contingency fund to assist students hit with record unemployment this year." The board, in ]uly allocated $500,000 to develop a work-study financial aid program. In addition the board, when it announced a 32 per cent increase in tuition fees Jan. 26, added $921,600 to the student aid coffers. The additional money will be used for bursariesâcash grants made on the basis of financial needâpresumably to lower income students to whom a tuition increase (or INSIDE UBC â¢ 31 increase in other expenses) may m withdrawal from classes. The board may feel the extra I sary money will be sufficient to help struggling students, but whether it ii "Right now we just don't know how bad things are going to be for students," Alma Mater Society president Dave Frank says. 'The gut feeling is it's really grim, but that won't be backed up until halfway through September." Student politicians have long championed the cause of accessibility to university regardless of financial status. And this year, they say, more students will be unable to pay their way. Dale cites the economic slump ir the mining and forestry industries â traditionally strong student employers â as just one reason why students wil be financially crippled. Increased tuition, continuing high costs of accomodation and food, and the shortage of inexpensive on-campus housing for students all add to students' like v I they < UBC. He urges students to seek help before starvation sets in. "They should plan their financial affairs so they si us before they run out of money. We're reluctant to make up for bad planning on the part of students. We can't afford that." Both Dale and Frank feel that a large part of the problem with student aid is that people don't know what available. "It can't be emphasized enough that if people have trouble they should go to the awards office rather than withdraw from university and come back a year or two later when they've sorted out their finances," Frank says. Dale adds that bursaries are awarded for financial need, not scholastic ability. "If you're at university, that's considered sufficient academic standing." Although as Hender says, 'The University has made a significant increase in bursary money available," many students will have trouble getting through the year. The cost of tending university has risen sharply, yet there has been no increase in " maximum allowable award. Single undergraduates qualify for a maximum of $3,800 per year, $2,000 of which is a non-repayable grant from the province. Students with dependents qualify for a maximum of $4,200, and graduate students can receive an I $1,800 loan, but no grant. Grad students are expected to make money during the year through I teaching assistantships. But many masters or doctoral programs do not allow grad students to work during the ner, so their earning power is significantly reduced. Hender estimates the average debt load for students graduating from UBC to be, about $3,600. No student is allowed to owe more than $9,800 through the Canada Student Loan Program. "There are some students who graduate and can't find work. They have difficulty paying back their | loans," he adds. Paying back student loans, however, is only a problem for those who qualify for them. ~ was working when I was 14, mov ed out when I was IS, and have gone to. college and university for four years," says agriculture student Nancy Campbell. "I was told I didn't qualify for an award because my parents should support me. I'm classified as a dependent." Parental income is a big factor in student loan applications. Mature students, married students, those who've been in the work force for two years (including one 12 month period of full-time* work), and students who have irreconcilable differences with their parents, qualify for an exemption Understandably as a student applying for an interest-free loan is expected to come up with as much money as he or she can.

A student is allowed | such assets as a $3,200 car, and sc money in the bank, but no slush funds | for a trip to Europe. Students are ex pected to contribute at least $925 t< their education, each year. Although Hender expects a slight in crease in UBC enrolment this year due I to the unemployed seeking better qualifications, board member Dale fears the high cost of education will fake its toll. "There is a point where the lack of employment possibilities will push up attendance," he says. "But you go beyond to that to where the I economy gets so bad that attendance falls off drastically. That's when the real cost of going to school becomes prohibitive."D fisShP^Rufifters World Runners World 3504 W. 4th Ave., Kitsilano 734-7848 Grower?

This is partially because some Thunderbird teams are going to have very good seasons and also because the athletic department is making moves to improve marketing and promotion of UBC athletics. No more will UBC scores be tacked onto the bottom of stories about Simon Fraser's accomplishments. Predictions. There is going to be.a lot of winners on campus this year. The first squad to start its season is the football team. By the time you read this it will have played and won the first few games of the year. The only competition in the West will come from the University of Alberta who beat UBC in the Western final last year. This time it should be the other way around. Glen Steele, the top ground gainer in the country last year, will again be the man on offence. The defence will be led by linebacker Mike Emery. Dave Singh and Bemie Glier may also be back after tryouts with the B.C. Lions. Next sport up is women's field hockeyâlast year third in the country behind Victoria and Toronto. This year number one. Ann Crofts and Terri Proin led the team last year and will again. The main reason why UBC field hockey is the best in the country is the quality coaching of Gail Wilson. Rugby had a weird season last year. Great in tournaments and on tour but rubbish in the regular season and McKechnie Cup. This year Don Spence's charges will not have the extremes. Spence has lost a couple of players (like Canada West captain Robin Russell) and it may be a while before players from his second team pick up the slack. A horoscope prediction for soccer. It might be a good season or it might not be. Coach Joe Johnson has some holes to fill in a team that was up and down last year. Johnson lost one goalie through graduation and another through a personality conflict, so unless someone who has played at college or the senior men's level walks in off the street, Johnson will be left with Mr. Inexperience in the pipes. AI Sigurdson and Dan Sudyeko, two Canadian college all-stars, return to anchor the defence while Kent Burkholder will run the show in the midfield. It remains to be seen if there will be any sort of scoring punch. There is a women's soccer team but I do not know much about it. I think the team won some games last year and I will predict it wins some this year too. Rowing. If you can spell Boris Klavora then you can try out for the men's and women's rowing teams. Klavora i the coach and a former member of the Yugoslavian n« tional team. Rowing at UBC was going downhill but wit the arrival of Klavora last year things are starting t change. With Peter Mullins taking a sabbatical the men's team will have a new coach for the first time in twenty years. Mullins has been replaced by Bob Molinski who took Argyle to the B.C. high school finals last year. Molinski will bring several of his players with him including 6' 8" Marter. It is most likely that Mark Marter will have to fill the shoes of departing centre Bob Forsyth who last year became UBC's top all-time scorer. The best of the returning players are Lloyd Scrubb and Pat West. In a rather dismal season Scrubb, West and For- sythe were the only bright lights. Speaking of dismal, the women's team will also be playing again this year. But, the women will no longer be the butt of cheap jokes in The Ubyssey because this year for the first time in three they will actually win some games. In INSIDE UBC â¢ 33 fact, for followers of the team, the turnaround will be astonishing. Coach Jack Pomfret has been saying for several years that it would take time and after two winless seasons the time has finally arrived. Pomfret will be drawing players from a junior varsity team that was better than the varsity last season and he will also have his best year in recruiting. The women's basketball team will surprise a lot of people The schedules for the men's and women's teams have also been chopped in half to ten games this year. Each team will play the other five Western Universities only once at home and once away. The reason for the cutback is obviously a lack of money but this pales when one realizes that the hockey team will be playing the other three teams in its league eight times each for a 24 game season. I quess they need that number of games to insure no one wins a series by a fluke goal or hot goal tending. Hockey is another sport which will show a great improvement over past years. Last year was the first under coach Jack Moores and it turned out to be quite successful in terms of team spirit and attitude. This year The improvement will show on the scoreboard. M. :ouple of top players from last year but recruiting wui more than replace them. I'm not one to say hockey alumni are throwing the bucks around, but it seems some players have been "convinced" to come to UBC form Seattle Breakers. No r chewan. Volleyball. You know the sport for tall people who could not quite "make 'er" at basketball. That is far from the case at UBC. The men's and women's volleyball teams are two of the best and hardest working teams on campus and this year it is going to payoff. The national championships are at UBC this year and the men will win no question. The women will have a lttle tougher go of it but will also be strong contenders for the national title. The top women players are Tara Senft, a first team all- star, and Karen Blair. The men have not lost anyone from last year. They were led by Chris Frehlick and Paul Thiessen who were Canada West second team all-stars and Brad Willock who was a first team all-star. Do you want to go to upstate New York this spring7 Just join the ski team and the trip is yours. The UBC ski team competes in an American league and this year the U.S. national champiohsips are in New York state. Last year both the men's and women's teams qualified for . the nationals and the men placed second out of 125 teams. In addition, UBC's John Hilland was named an all- American after winning the skimeister award as the top all- aroung skier.

STORE INSIDE UBC â¢ 34 Staging a Greek play Director Klaus Strassman discuses his interpretation of Hie Trojan Women, one of this season's major Freddy Wood productions. By SHAFFIN SHARIFF T- irtually e he stage All that is lefl ories of Stage Campus '82 â the student summer company at UBC's Freddy Wood theatre â and their two ductions, Edward Bond's The Sea and Ten Lost Years, a play about the Depression era. Preparations have hardly begun for the campus theatre's new season of productions, among them The Trojan Women, by the Greek playwright Euripides. Yet when the curtain goes up on The Trojan Women November 17, months of preparation will have gone into the production. What the University com- of student actors fused into a top envision and interpretation of the play. Months before set designers, stage managers, and the rest of the production and acting crews are assembled for readings and rehearsals, Strassman sits in his office and discusses the play, trying to visualize his interpretation. What he hopes to avoid, he says, is a production cluttered with Greek artifacts and props. Staging the play in its original setting â the fallen, burning city of Troy â might just confirm some students' worst fears about productions of Greek plays. "The last thing I want is a museum piece," he Written around 416 B.C., The Trojan women deals with the aftermath of the Trojan wars, with Troy in ashes, and the Greek soldiers basking in their glory. On the foreground and commanding the stage are the Trojan women, trying to cope with the wars' carnage and destruction. The lead character Hecuba, Queen of Troy, of whatever is left of the city, sees families torn apart, her grandson murdered, and the overwhelming suffering of the women around her. The gods do not care; they have abandoned the mortals. That is the way Euripides' play reads. What interests Strassman is the play's relevance to us today. Strassman thinks the play deals with two of the most important issues and concerns of our time: war, specifically the possibility of nuclear war for our generation, and the role of women in society. 'Ten years ago, I would have said there will never be an atomic war," he says, reflecting on his change of con- But he doesn't think art, or at least theatre, alters audience's consciousness. Art may have a political function, but it doesn't accomplish it. "The- and now the threat of nuclear forms a part of our modern ness, he says. But Strassman wants to avoid staging the play in one particular setting â say, Vietnam â and risk branding judgment on his production as a specific allegory. Strassman, who has been with the theatre department since 1964, says The Trojan Women was partly chosen because it offers substantial parts for women actors. Established plays offer more parts for men than women; the ratio, he says, may be as high as 10 to "I v the si which these women find themselves, and the suffering involved," he explains. "I want to explore that experience of feeling at the end of the line, of everything being snatched away from you, even hope. Everything is taken away from them until the women are left with nothing." The men have fought their wars, and now it is up to the women to bear the brunt of the aftermath. As Strassman notes, the French existentialist and playwright Jean-Paul Sartre felt Euripides made his charac- "/ want to explore the experience of feeling at the end of the line, of everything being snatched away from you, even hope." atre rarely changes people," he says. 'Teople don't come out of (Marxist German playwright Bertoldt) Brecht's plays and switch from capitalism to communism. What plays can do, though, is make you think." Because Strassman wants the audience to think about the Trojan women's predicament and about how their plight is applicable to our times, the likelihood is he will stage the play in modern dress. 'It will be general without being overtly particular about where the play is set." The wars of our century â World War I and II, including Hiroshima, Korea, Vietnam and El Salvador â INSIDE UBC â¢ 35 ters confront a void, a nothingness. "If you think about it, The Trojan Women is a very existential play," He says, a very early example of one. As such, Euripides is different from other Greek playwrights; in his plays, Gods don't come to their disciples' rescue â they scorn them. "The Gods don't pay any attention 3 the v s Stra Micerned with is that worshipping has been taken away after the destruction of the temple in Troy." "The Trojan Women exposes the 'absurdity' of warfare. The victory is hollow. Both sides are losers." And See Page 84 CITR Alternative campus radio By MIKE MINES To the strains of Martha Reeves and the Vandellas' classic hit, Dancing in the Street, CITR, began its first official broadcast as an FM radio station April 1st, 1982 atJQJ Flipping on their low power FM transmitter that spring day marked the culmination of a four year campaign to go FM by the student owned and controlled radio society. It was almost eight months earlier, in September 1981, that CITR learned that its licence application to the Canadian Radio Television and Telecommunications Commission had been successful. But according to Station Manager Sonia Mysko, the society's only full-time employee and herself a former UBC student and CITR news director, the time-lag allowed for the necessary technical and programming adjustments for FM broadcasting to be made. CITR executive president Jeff Kearney also felt the delay was needed. "When I heard that the licence was granted, I was in a state of utter disbelief â shock! After the reality finally set in we realized that we had to go slowly to do things right," he said. It wasn't that Kearney lacked confidence in CITR's approximately 95 volunteers or himself (Kearney after all put much of the application together in the firstRl&e) but CITR had competed head-to-head with CJAZ-FM for the use of 101.9 the last remaining FM frequency in the Vancouver area. CJAZ wanted to use the frequency to improve its reception in the downtown core of the city, but the CRTC noted that the use of two frequencies in an urban area like Vancouver was not in the best interests of the public. In approving CITR's application, the CRTC recognized that the UBC station planned to broadcast within the guidelines it set out for campus radio stations in other cities. Essentially, CITR broadcasts with a fourfold purpose: â¢ to offer to the general public in- and alternative programm ing, irith students of CITR D.J. . . . station spinning on FM 102 terests, and activities of the campus tc the public, * and to provide basic training for students interested in broadcast ââ "While there are over 80 campus radio stations across Canada, there only 10 which broadcast over puDucairwaves. Six of these are in ( tario, two in Quebec, one in Saskatchewan, and now CITRI Clearly, the CRTC does not just hand out broadcasting licences to anyone (ask any student broadcaster.) So CTTR's FM licence can be seen as a huge achieve- ment (ask anyone at CJAZ). f Unlike commercial AM or FM radio, which can easily be identified, campus radio does not lend itself to any easy definition. Each university has developed its own version, a variat on a theme depending on the political and financial circumstances in wh' ' the station finds itself and depending on what the members want the stat" to sound like. Of the 10 FM campus radio stations in the country, however, it is certain that CITR is the most unorthodox. Whereas virtually all of these other FM stations hire a station manager who directs all aspects of operation, CITR has a student executive who direct the station manager. While the other stations rely on commercials supplement any student levy they may receive, CITR conducts off-air f draising. Much of CITR's revenui generated by presenting concerts, providing dance music in the Pit, and renting out its mobile sound service to groups for parties, dances, weddings, etcetera. CITR, then, is politically and financially different from other campus radio stations, but the biggest difference is in its sound. CITR's music playlist is probably the most progressive of any radio station in Canada. While words like "alternative," "progressive," and "new" are often used to describe the station's sound, music director Noel Baker says these words fall short. He recommends that if you don't know what CITR sounds like, just tune in and listen, putting all of your preconceived notions asi" INSIDE UBC â¢ 36 Clearly, CITR's music is not intended o be background noise. The overall musical sound is grabbing and can be jarring at times. The music, says Baker, has relevance. 3t at all like commercial radio. What they do is program with the goal of offending the least amount of people. With no advertisers to please CITR can go out on a limb once and a while, and take some chances. The music is largely a reflection of the programmer's taste and is also, hopefully, a reflection of the time and place we Program director Chris Dafoe points out that CITR tries to play as much local music as possible. "Without a doubt," he says, "we play more local groups than any other radio station in this city, giving them a chance to be heard. No other station in n plays bands like Los Popularos, Corsage, Buddy Selfish, or even the B-Sides for that matter."

Lastly, there is the control there are several questions to I.U.D. which doesn't fit into either consider: group, and no one is too sure how it â¢ How effective is t ie method? works. INSIDE UBC â¢ 3 Methods Fertility Awareness What It Is Fertility awareness, also known as "the rhythm method" or "natural family planning," involves following the menstrual cycle in order to determine the fertile (or unsafe) days. When using this method the couple must abandon because a long period of abstinence is required. With patience and adherence the "rules," it can be an effective natural method of contraception. lut, fertility awareness is a valuable practice for any woman, because it in- ises her understanding of her body, well as enabling her to recognize ovulation. This can help her to protect inst an unwanted pregnancy. For diaphragm, I.U.D., or foam could ask her partner to use a condom during her fertile period in order to boost her pro- ion rate to a level of effectiveness as h as, or higher than, the Pill. How It Works Women are able to conceive for only three days of every menstrual cycle. It ommon practice to regard the day of ovulation, plus three days prior and three days after, as the fertile period. Thus, at least one week of every cycle is "unsafe" for unprotected inter- This week is usually located in the middle of every cycle â on a 28 day cycle this week is from days 10 to 17 But it should be remembered that ovulation always occurs approximately two weeks before the next menstrual cycle. Only the pre-ovulatory phase here are three methods for deterring the time of ovulation: calendar, basal body temperature, and cervical nucus (also known as Billings). The nethods work best when used in con- unction, but the calendar is the least effective, because menstrual cycles vary so much. Women who wish to use this method require detailed information. A good source is a booklet from Serena Canada, which has a Surrey office (596-9812). Signs Of Ovulation '. Wet, slippery cervical discharge that resembles egg white. (Cervical discharge varies during the menstrual cycle â it is normally dry of thick, except around the time of ovulation.) 2. Some women notice slight pains on the side of the abdomen, which often occur during ovulation. 3. Basal body temperature drops 12 are available, but if the condom is not lubricated never use vasilene, as it causes deterioration of the rubber. Instead use saliva, or spermicidal foam or jelly. The penis -should be withdrawn immediately after ejaculation, making sure the top is firmly held in BIRTH CONTROL EFFECTIVENESS RATES* Theoretical Actual Method Effectiveness Effectiveness PILL 99.9 96-99 CONDOM & FOAM 99 + 95 + I.U.D. 99 94-99 DIAPHRAGM 98 86-99 + CERVICAL CAP 98 82-96 + CONDOM 97 90-96 + FOAM 98 85-92 RHYTHM 99 82-98 + CHANCE 10 10 *The effectiveness rates are the percer tages of women who used the method for one year ess rate of 96 per cent, of 100 pregnant.

Completely safe, free of any side effects. Disadvantages 1. Requires a high degree of motiva- keeping. 3. The couple must regularily abstain from intercourse for at least one week per month. The Condom The condom, which is the only effective method of birth control available to men, is presently enjoying a new surge in popularity. A recent Maclean's article reported that 45 to 55 per cent Canadian couples now use the condom, either exclusively, or inicorri- bination with another device. It is usually made of latex, (hence "rubber"), but there are also condoms made of sheep's intestines available, which are popularly considered to be better because they transmit heat. How It Is Used The condom is placed over the erect penis before any penile-vaginal contact. Unless a brand with a resevoir tip is used a half inch space should be left at the end of the condom, in order to INSIDE UBC â¢ 39 hold the semen. Lubricated condoms order to prevent slippage or leakage. Advantages 1. Fairly cheap, easy to use, readily 2. It gives some protection against venereal diseases. 3. If the man tends to ejaculate quickly, it reduces the sensation somewhat, so intercourse may be prolonged. Disadvantages 1. Requires an interuption of sex, as it must be put on at the time of entry. Some people feel that this causes a loss of spontaneity, but many couples get around this by incorporating the use of the condom into foreplay. 2. The condom decreases sensation for the man. Some brands are better, though. 3. A condom can break or leak if not used properly. It can also deteriorate if it is old or has been kept in a warm place â like a wallet or a vending machine.

Most have fairly low effectiveness rates â foam is the best. But foam combined with a condom is nearly as effective as the Pill, 98 per cent plus. The nice thing about this combination is that it allows joint responsibility for contraception, which shows that each partner is willing to pull her/his own weight, rather than callously dump the responsibility on one party. How It Is Used â¢" Foam must be inserted into the vagina no more than fifteen minutes before intercourse. Care should be taken to shake the foam vigorously and its applicator should be inserted as deeply into the vagina as it can go. With each of intercourse another application of foam is necessary. Foam must be left in the vagina for 6 to 8 hours after inter- Advantages 1. Readily available at drugstores, 2. Has no physiological side effects, although some women might be allergic to a specific brand. 3. Foam, is useful in preventing V.D. and vaginal infections. 4. Foam is a very effective method of contraception, when used together with a condom. Disadvantages 1. Using foam can be an interruption of sex, unless it is a part of foreplay. Foam must be used each and every 2. Foam often leaves women feeling a little drippy, and some people find it to be "messy." The Diaphragm What It is The diaphragm is a soft rubber dome-shaped cup which is filled with a spermicidal agent and worn over the cervix. It, like the condom, is also enjoying renewed popularity. Many women consider the diaphragm to be "old-fashioned," and thus not effective, but this simply isn't so. The diaphragm is a safe method of contracep- is effective as you want to make it. There is a fairly large margin " ^, but two recent studies, involving hundreds of women, young and old, married and single, illustrated that the diaphragm is a very effective method, with effectiveness rates of up )99p if plus How It Is Used The diaphragm should be smeared with spermicidal cream or jelly and inserted no more than two hours before intercourse. Once the user has some practice the technique (which is easy to learn) is ho more difficult than inserting a tampon, and takes only a couple of minutes. The diaphragm must be left in place for 6 to 8 hours after intercourse. If intercourse is repeated during this time more cream or jelly must be inserted. Remember â the diaphragm by itself is not an effective method of contraception â it works by holding the spermicide in the proper place. The condom, which is the only effective method of birth control for men, is presently- enjoying a new surge in popularity. Advantages 1. No side effects. The diaphragm and spermicide is even a recommended medical treatment for DES daughters, who have much higher rates of cervical and vaginal cancers. 2. Very effective, if' used with spermicide and if used consistently. 3. Can be fitted at a health clinic. Well-recommended is the Vancouver Women's Health Collective. 4. The use of the spermicidal agent reduces the risk of V.D. and vaginal infections. Disadvantages 1. The diaphragm must be inserted before intercourse. Some people feel this interferes with spontaneity, but the insertion of the diaphragm can be a) incorporated as part of foreplay, b) routinely inserted every evening, and INSIDE UBC â¢ 57 c) inserted up t< o hours before ii 2. More spermicide must be inserted | with every repeat act of intercourse. 3. The diaphragm may be dislodged, particularly in the female superior position. The Cervical Cap Although widely used in Europe, the I cervical cap is new in North America. The reason for the absence of this device is attributed to its low profitability, as it requires little or no spermicide and lasts longer than a diaphragm. Cervical caps, which are smaller | than diaphragms, are made of plastic or rubber and fit snugly over the cervix. They remain in place by suction. The big advantage of the cap is that it can remain in place for three days, although some women leave them in How It Is Used Insertion of the cap is similar to that of the diaphragm â it is a skill that must be properly taught by competent people. But once the user has mastered | it, it is quite easy â like "putting a .thimble on your finger with your eyes shut." In other words, it is not as d "" cult as doctors like to make out. Advantages 1. Can be left in place for long pe- I riods of time, allowing for spontan 2. Women who cannot wear phragms can often successfully be fitted with caps. 3. The cap does not have to be used | with a spermicidal agent. 4. The slight pressure that the cap exerts on the cervix enhances some wo- Disadvantages 1. Some women cannot use caps, either because of an extremely long/ short or otherwise abnormal cervix, or because their vaginas are too long or their fingers too short for easy insertion and removal. 2. The cap is not recommended for women with cervical erosion. The ef- | feet of the tight fit of the cap on t cervix is unknown. However, it thought to be insignificant if the w man is in good health and does n leave the cap on for lengthy periods of I Student Services I Use student services; they are useful and I comprehensive.

UBC Students for Peace and Mutual Disarmament are a vital part of this local initiative. We staged a one-day symposium entitled Ending the Arms Race: A Canadian. Perspective on February 27 at UBC. 650 people attended. Many people became actively involved in the movement because of â¢ what they learned at that symposium. On March 31, we declared UBC a Nuclear Weapon Free Zone and informed NATO headquarters in Belgium of our delaration. During that single five-hour day, hundreds of peo1 pie trooped through our multi-media display and filled out ballots supporting the move to make Canada a nuclear weapon-free zone.

If you enjoy the outdoors, you will probably be interested in the Varsity Outdoor Club. For over 50 years, the club has been bringing UBC students together for trips in the local mountains and further afield. The club offers a wide range of activities. Most members participate in the hiking and ski touring trips, but for the more ambitious there is rock climbing and mountaineering. In the past few years, more club members have also been getting involved in other outdoor pursuits such as kayaking and cycling. Instruction in the form of schools and clinics is offered so that no experience is necessary. The VOC is a place where you can learn safely and inexpensively.

At the end of September, VOC takes over the Whistler Cabin for the annual weekend-long hike. There are hikes going out on both days, a rock climbing school and a party. Numerous ski trips go out over Christmas, offering the opportunity of getting into excellent ski touring areas in the Rockies and the Interior. Each Spring, a ski camp is held at the club's cabin at Garibaldi lake. The annual Sphinx Camp allows members to escape the pressure of exams (or to relax after they are finished). It gives easy access to a spectacular alpine area for all levels of skiers since food is usually brought in.

Fraternities What is a fraternity7 A fraternity is a group of men tied together by more than just friendship, but by lifelong brotherhood. Getting involved with one of the 13 fraternities at the UBC campus gives an individual a chance to meet many new and interesting people. For the first year student, university seems massive in size, but by joining a fraternity and the Greek system, you can reduce this size without jeopardizing any particular aspect of campus life. This diverse Greek system can offer an individual a large variety of activities ranging from campus-wide parties to a competitive but fun intramural sports program. Fraternities provide a large part of the student housing at UBC, as well individual fraternities have scholarships and bursaries available to help finance the cost of ones education. Being, involved with the Greek system means particiption in charitable work, Mardi Gras, and Songest â which are really just plain fun. Come out and really see what a fraternity is all about during Greek Week â Sept. 20 to 25. Contact: Graham Thorn, SUB 218. Phone 228-4183 or 224-4956.

"I have a very hard time not imagining it in modern dress. "Man is a very strange creature because we still haven't come to terms with and transcended warfare," he says. It never leads to anything people think it will lead to. The play is particularly pessimistic, he thinks, because the only survivors in the play are Helen â the siren â and Odysseus, the ruthless commander who never appears on stage. Hecuba, who has to confront all the horrors, doesn't win in the end. Her rationality and good sense don't get her anywhere, and she ultimately questions the gods' existence. The challenge for any director, including Strassman, is to make The Trojan Women into a production that holds the . audience's attention. "There must be a fascination with the characters, with psychological detail and attention," he says. Strassman's valid interpretation is bound to ensure that, judging from past productions, including Brecht on Brecht (staged in 1981). Although the majority of the cast has not been selected, Strassman has already chosen his Hecuba, the mother earth figure: Marjorie Nelson, an actor/instructor who manages "Man is a very strange creature because we still haven't transcended warfare." school in Seattle. She worked previously on Brecht's Mother Courage. The Trojan :e the two professionally for the first time her own acting with Strassman Women will unil since 1965. Nelson will be the only professional in the cast, Strassman says. Students will comprise the rest of the cast. One of the main criteria for choosing a play for production is the student actors' capability of handling it. That factor is balanced with Freddy Wood's objective to present interesting theatre to the University community. Also taken into account is the department's commitment to innovative and experimental theatre. Every year, when members of the theatre department meet to choose plays for the forthcoming year, "there is always debate as to which factor should take priority," Strassman says. But, he adds, "We manage to look at all the choices (of plays directors want to do) and balance Forming policies from year to year works well for Freddy Wood. 'Tt's the best way," Strassman says. "Otherwise you're trying to find dogma." Freddy Wood's 1982/83 season opens September 22 with Joe Orton's Entertaining Mr. Shane, directed by Stanley Weese, followed by The Trojan Women November 17. The new year will usher in Juigi Porandello's Six Characters in Search of An Author, directed by John Brockington, January 12.

A complete " it of practitioners who fit caps can be j obtained by phoning Planned Parent- The I.U.D. The IUD is a small plastic device . which is inserted by a doctor into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. They are usually T-shaped or coiled. No one is I quite sure how the IUD works. Most | researchers believe that the IUD causes a constant inflammation of the uterine walls, which makes the uterus inhos- I pitable to a fertilized egg. Thus, the IUD does not prevent conception; it : makes implantation of the egg virtually (but not completely) impossible. | How It Is Used An IUD must be inserted by a doc- :or. The insertion can be painful, and often causes cramps for a while afterwards. The user must routinely check the strings after insertion, as IUDs have a tendency to be spontaneously expelled. Advantages 1. Does not involve an interruption of sex, and provides continuous pro? 2. Can act as an effective "morning after" method of birth control if it is inserted within five days after unprotected intercourse. Disadvantages 1. The I.U.D. seems to promote pel- vieinflammatory disease (PID). I.U.D. usersexperience 3 to 9 times higher incidence of PID than women who do not use the I.U.D. PID is a serious condition. 2. The I.U.D. aids the spread of infection as it provides a string for infec- ion to enter the uterus. 3. I.U.D.s have a tendency to be spontaneously expelled. The expulsion »is 4 to 19 per cent. , The I.U.D. can cause a longer, | heavier menstrual flow, as well as rse cramping. . The I.U.D. can.perforate the uter- walls, causing PID and often the need for surgery. 6. The I.U.D. can cause spotting be- 7.

The pills (which are taken daily) are composed of progesterone or estrogen. The user simply has to take a pill daily for continuous protection against pregnancy. Advantages 1. No interruption of sexual activity. 2. Regular contraceptive protection with minimal fuss. 3. Regular lighter periods, with less cramping. Disadvantages The Pill is a chemical that does not just affect the reproductive system â its effects are felt throughout the whole â body. Over 50 metabolic changes have been recorded in Pill users, and the Pill was recently described in a U.S. Senate inquiry as "a potent modifier of biological function." It must always be remembered that the Pill affects each and every cell in the body in a multitude of Side Effects 1. Weight gain. 2. Breakthrough bleeding. 3. Nausea. 4. Cloasma â dark patches of skin, usually on the face. 5. Headaches â women with migraines should not take the Pill. 6. Depression â the suicide rate INSIDE UBC â¢ 93 among Pill users is higher than among non-Pill users. This is believed to be | due to a Pill-induced vitamin B shortage. 7. Increased susceptibility to vaginal yeast infections. 8. Increased susceptibility to bladder infections. Specific long-term risks include 4.7 times greater risk of circulatory diseases.

And everyone will be back this A lot of people think swimming would be-a great sport if you did not have to get up so early to train. And they're right. Jack the swimming coach, gets the number one parking spot by the Aquatic centre every day because he gets to school rather early. His diligence is paying off because the swimming and diving teams may soon be number one in thec< intry. Last year the women finished second and the men fifth at the nationals. The top swimmer was Rhonda Thomasson with four first place medals. If you want to become a top curler then tryout for the women's curling team. Marjorie and Charlie Kerr are the coaches and they know what they are doing. Last year their n the Canada West and B.C. Winter games. This of the ! This is not the extent of sports teams at UBC; there are others which compete in local city leagues. One team that may not be competing at all is wrestling. Because of lack of funds wrestling may be chopped. It doesn't really matter, as long as the hockey team still gets its eight-games-against- each-opponent schedule. X he athletic department makes no bones about which sports it wants to promote. Hockey, football and basketball are usually the first and most often mentioned teams when ever the athletic department talks about itself. The athletic department justifies this by maintaining these sports generate revenue. For games like the football playoffs last year this is true but the ticket sales at several basketball games last season did not even cover the salaries of the two people hired to sell tickets. While maybe these slightly "more interesting" sports should be promoted more than others, the so called minor sports should not be neglected by the athletic administra- . tion totally. And the athletic administration should also stop considering women's sports minor. As part of its promotion effort the athletic department will be selling a souvenir programme callled the Thunderbird Sports Magazine. Instead of having a cheap programme for hockey and another for football and the occasional one for a special event like a tournament or national championship, the Thunderbird Sports Magazine will be of higher quality with an insert for each specific sport. If you go to any games this fall and actually buy the magazine you will be able to see the emphasis the athletic department puts on the so called big three sports. The cover will have photos or drawings of football, hockey and basketball. If the basketball player is not a woman, then there will also be a drawing of a female gymnast. The stories will be your standard stuff about UBC athletics including articles on such things as the Big Block Promoting and emphasising sports is fine, as long as you do not go too far and start throwing too much around under the table.

If you're a first year student, you are probably wondering why you ever came to this offshoot of Poland, where interminable lineups seem to be the rule rather than the exception. Otherwise, this rag will no doubt be used as fireplace fodder or scanned through whilst sipping a cold . one in the Pit. This article is aimed primarily at helping r the campus survive the experience with a trauma, while suggesting a few shortcuts to those students who still believe everything they are told. I first came to UBC in 1971, when Sedgewick library was a hole in the ground and beer was five for $1. I finally graduated this April, so I either speak from experience or I'm rather slow on the up-take. (I heard that.) Nonetheless, there are a number of things one should know about that do not appear in the UBC calendar. Learn them, and UBC can be one of the great experiences of your life. Follow the official (administration) line, and suddenly life in Nakusp living on UIC will seem attractive. The first myth to be dealt with is the idea that university is the pinnacle of academic achievement, where truth and beauty will be discovered in every classroom. T'aint so. The reality is that university is the same as high school, with only the students having a grade average lower than C+ skimmed off. (They go to SFU.) Therefore, if you put the same amount of work as you did in high school, you will likely achieve similar marks. The really bad news is that the instructors at UBC also divide along much the same lines as high school teachers, so be prepared for professors who are as incomprehensible as your standard politician. Occasionally, for example, you will encounter a prof whose mind is from another planet. Quietly transfer to another course or section, ponder the miracles of tenure, and offer a silent prayer that the poor soul is institutionalized before doing themselves, or someone innocent, grievous harm. Which brings us to another point, if you are still with me. Do not take every utterance by your professor as being writ in stone. Your instructor is another human being who has merely accomplished the same things you are starting out to do. If your prof makes what you suspect is a blunder, graciously point it out. If you are incorrect, you will have learned something, which is why you are here. If the prof is in error, the good ones will appreciate the fact you've been paying attention, as for the bad ones, see the preceding paragraph. It never ceases to amaze me the number of students who go into a classroom and religiously take notes on the entire lecture. More often than not, the prof is reciting almost verbatim from the required readings on the valid assumption that nobody has done them. Do the required readings, which are rarely unreasonable, and you will benefit on two counts: your note-taking will diminish considerably and you can concentrate on the CONCEPTS, and secondly, you will score great Brownie points, especially in discussion groups. If you are embarrassed at being well informed, what the hell are you doing here? On the subject of readings, a common mistake committed by most first year students and a large number of older students who should know better is that of rushing out after your first class of a course and buying all of the "required" textbooks. This is entirely wrong. In case you hadn't heard, the UBC Bookstore does indeed charge prices which would make private bookstores blush. The first thing you should do is go through the course outline and see just how often each book will really be used. Professors making $40,000 a year think nothing of assigning a $15 book which might be used for one week of the course, and involving perhaps five per cent of the total course mark. In these instances, your best bet is to wait until the week the book is required, buy it and use it while being carefull not to damage it, then return it for a full refund claiming you have dropped the course. The Bookstore allows refunds within ten days, and only the cruelest of clerks will question your story. UBC's various librairies quite often stock multiple editions of required textbooks. One course I took this past year had both texts available in Sedgewick library. I simply kept on renewing them for the whole term, saving myself $25, so it is an approach worth looking into. In addition, ads for old texts are plastered all over campus, so keep your eyes open. A few last points about academic life at UBC. Avoid 8:30 a.m. classes; the odds are 50/50 that if you're awake your prof isn't. Besides, it interferes with enjoying a proper social life if you constantly hit the hay before the National. Twice a year a dark cloud gathers over UBC. I'm referring to the Christmas and April exam periods. It is a tired cliche, but the truth is that you have little to fear except fear itself. So long as you have faithfully kept up with most of your readings and exercises, and presuming you've transferred out of any course with a truly hopeless professor, they are not that difficult. Few profs are so sadistic they design exams for the express purpose of failing everybody. Try to relax when writing exams and if you must be paranoid, remember that likely everybody else is too â so you are at no insurmountable disadvantage. There are a few other nifty tricks for minimizing the amount of work you have to do, but if I mention them here I may get my degree revoked. Ask any veteran student. Once you have mastered the academic side of life at UBC, you can settle back and have some fun. The beauty of UBC is that while you are enjoying yourself, you will be undergoing a learning process that in many ways transcends the classroom. "You Want drama?. . .We got drama. . .You want music?. . .We got pop and classical. . .You want sports?. . .We got spectator and participatory." You get the idea. While on campus I have listened to Joan Baez and the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. I have seen stage versions of Fiddler on the Roof and the Tempest. I've listened to Pierre Trudeau and Germaine Greer. There is literally something for everyone at UBC. Much has been written and said about the importance of the human element in life. At UBC, this is especially pertinent. While you are here, you are interacting with the future movers and shakers of our society. Even the people who graduate and then go out to a lifetime of selling life insurance are pretty fascinating while they're here.D INSIDE UBC â¢ 96 COLTS by IMPORT COLTS MILD COLTS & COLTS MILD Jfia$t*bne up for a change.
