The Table of Contents, at the front, groups articles by general topic: education, health, money, and so on. The Index, at the back, lists articles and specific topics alphabetically. Probably beat these two listings, you'll be able to find what you're looking for. f course, you don't always know what you're looking for. First-year students often feel this way. This handbook is really written with then in mind, so first-year students should take the time > read this handbook all the way I through. Sometimes, all you have to go oh when you're looking for information is I the vague feeling that UBC is designed for single, affluent, local male undergraduates with lots of friends, good marks, and no disabilities — and an accompanying vague feeling that your problem lies in not fitting this descrip- i. Hence —' a topical listing by Fatal WOMEN: See Office for Women Students (p. 53). A University-run service providing professional counselling, liaison with other University services and administration, a resource library, and a lounge for talk and relaxation. It also offers a number of skill workshops such as essay blues, assertiveness training, math anxiety, career planning, and job search strategies. The Office also handles sexual harassment problems. See Women's Centre (p. 57). An AMS Service Organization, providing peer support and political action.

Stay away from isolated or poorly lit areas if you're alone (Endowment Land trails, Wreck Beach, library carrels) even during the day. It's good to know that Traffic and Security runs a free shuttle bus from Main & Sedgewick to B-Lot and the residences, from 7:30 p.m. when the libraries are open at night.

UNWONDERFUL MARKS (OR WORSE): Read the whole of the Educational Enterprise (p. 13) thoroughly, and seriously consider counselling, or a study skills course, or both. Identify possible sources such as poor health, stre: worries, and pursue solutions starting with the appropriate sections in this handbook (Money, Health, etc.). NON-LOCALS AND OTHER LONELY PEOPLE: You need friends and a support system to survive at UBC and you should actively seek them (not al the expense of your studies, of course). Don't hide in your books or in the Video Games — come out and join the fun. See Clubs (p. 62). Remember — there is every question, desire, or problem you could ever have at UBC — well, a partial answer, anyway. All you have to do look for it. THE RULES How to Survive UBC in Five Easy Steps your degree, or your life and never know what you're doing wrong until it's loo late. So read and heed: Tuum Est is UBC's motto. The literal translation is "It Is Yours", and probably p upon a time Tuum Est meant that TlffOniversity belonged to the people of the province, or maybe that the whole ailable to those who became educated. Times change. Today, Tuum Est is translated "It's Up To You" — in other words: the responsibility is yours, kid; theb nyour >tmyp blem. UBC's administration adheres to this translation of Tuum Est with nishing devotion. It's Up To You is probably the best-followed motto ever. Among other things, It's Up To You means students are solely responsible for making sure they meet the requirements for graduation. In February of their last r, students must apply for gradua- i. Students who don't apply, or who lack the right number and kind of credits, don't graduate. Needless to say, February of the graduating year is not the best time to find out about a missing course requirement. So study the Calendar requirements for your intended degree, and do it every year, because they can change. Take advantage of the presence of Faculty advisors. If the requirements aren't clear, or you're getting different answers from different sources, keep asking questions if it means going all the way to the Dean. Ambiguities will not necessarily be resolved in your favour. Another application of It's Up To You is the notable absence of information for new students. There are some orientation programs but It's Up To You to find them and get to them — there's no campus-wide information system. A lot of students just get plunked dow in the middle of Registration chaos and figure it out from there. So you have to actively seek information. Good starting places are the Calendar, the Registration Guide, Library Tours, material distributed by your Faculty, CITR radio, bulletin boards, older students and student publications like this handbook, The Ubyssey and the Activity Calendar. Other things that are Up To You: make sure the Registrar's Office has your correct address so it can send you transcripts, course confirmations, even refunds. Familarize yourself with university deadlines, especially the ones for changing courses. And if you decide to withdraw from a course, find out about the proper procedure and the repercussions (see Bureaucracy page 17). You could easily end up getting a zero mark for the Learn the courseload requirements for student aid, or qualifying for on-campus housing well ahead of time (for information on housing and student aid see page 55 and page 34 respectively). And when you have a question or problem, search high and low until you findai -.Their this campus are available if you look for them but nobody is going to come along and fill you in at the appropriate time. That's why the AMS publishes this handbook, so keep it around a ' reference. Don't Cheat Getting caught for academic misconduct is the fastest and most dishonourable way out of UBC. Academic misconduct generally me: cheating on exams or plagiaris Cheating on exams is pretty straightforward — we all know what it is. Plagiarism is harder to define and it's possible to plagiarize without knowing it. Using somebody else's words or ideas without giving them credit is the w( kind of intellectual dishonesty, but rr undergraduate work seems to consist using other people's ideas. Sometimes it's hard to know when you should give credit, especially if it's for a theory you've been discussing all term, or f commonly used phrase or definition Two pieces of advice: when in doubt, give credit. And if you don't know 1 because it's one of those complicated cases, ask your prof. Plagiarizing and cheating are ver serious offences. Don't even think abou trying; it's not worth it. The Flesh Is Weak Unforeseen health problems can seriously interfere with your plans. Sometime soon, look through the section on health in book (see page 12). Meanwhile, two urgently important rules: 1. Make sure you have health i surance. Uninsured medical care for ; accident or serious illness can be mo expensive then you even want to think about. Most students are still covered by their parents' plans, but married or older students, or those from out of province and especially from outside the country usually need to make other rangements, which can be done through Student Health Services (see map page 10). 2. Sex makes babies. This is not a university rule, of course. We wouldn't even mention it except every year many otherwise intelligent and well-informed young men and women forget all about the laws of nature and probability, and suffer serious moral, economic, health, academic and career consequences. If you don't want babies yet, there are two incredibly simple solutions: refrain from sexual intercourse, or use birth control. You know how the first one works. You can find out about the second through Student Health Services. And if you're not sure which simple solution is right for you (a notoriously UBC WINTER SPORTS CENTRE VISIT OUR LICENSED LOUNGE AFTER A HOT GAME OF HOCKEY CURLING RACQUETBALL SQUASH SIP A COOL DRINK, RELAX AND WATCH OUR BIG SCREEN TV OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK UBC WINTER SPORTS CENTRE 6066 THUNDERBIRD BLVD.

Now. Those are big, bad scary rules. There are also lots of little rules. Breaking little rules won't mess up your life, but it sure Some little rules are laid down by profs, and faculties, who will tell you about these rules as they come up. Little rules of this sort include the way papers o be handed in, lab procedures, attendance requirements and so on. There ivo other rule-making bodies you'll into: Traffic and Security, (also known as the Campus Cowboys or Quasi Cops), and the Library. The UBC Library is the largest in the province and one of the largest in Canada. It has 13 branches, not in- cluding the departmental "reading i," and houses 2.5 million books and magazines and 3.5 million.non-book > such as sound recordings, maps microfilms. Students have access to all these riches — if they know how to find them — so the Library Tours of- Still, .tands n that any n this big and complicated ing to have rules. While working inside the libraries, the big rule is: don't take food into the "stacks," the area where the books are. The bugs attracted to your crumbs will eat the books next, and nobody can afford to replace 2.5 million Taking books out of the Library involves a few rules, too. Most books have a two-week loan period (and exceptions are usually well marked). If you keep a book longer without renewing it, nothing happens unless someone else wants the book, in which case you're charged hefty overdue fees, dating from the date of the request, not the day you get the overdue notice in the mail. Usually, you alredy owe several dollars by the time you open up the overdue your loans promptly, which you can do in person or by phoning the branch the book comes from (see page 18). Don't Get Caught This last rule can be applied to the three areas outlined above, but at UBC its meaning is con fined to traffic and security regulati< There are two types of cop at UBC: the "real" ones, the RCMP, who control the Endowment Lands, and the Traffic and Security Patrol, the "quasi-cops", who roam around the university proper. The RCMP view the quasi's as crime preventers; once something serious happens you're supposed to call the RCMP at 224-1322. There are many things to get caught at, especially in the realm of cars. A common event is getting towed for not having a valid parking sticker. If you are towed by the quasi's (on- campus location), the impoundment lot is at 3030 Wesbrook Mall (near 16) and the cost is $26 plus any outstanding tickets to get out of hock. (Cash, VISA or Mastercard accepted). If you are unfortunate enough to be towed by the RCMP for Endowment lands violations (parking in Resident's Only zones, parking on Marine after 11 p.m.), then you must call the RCMP to find out which towing company (Buster's or Drake) has your car and go off campus to pay a much higher charge of $42. to page 11 ... T HE UBIQUITOUS Volkswagen. Light standards, the Clock Tower, the Lion': Gate. . .where will it strike next? Tensions eased by Friday when the hoax was revealed but many people had red faces that weekend, and a few of them were engineers. UBC engineers have pulled off several other highly publicized stunts wh' ' have made them famous amc engineering schools in Canada and ei the U.S. Among the legends include the times they stole and ransomed the nini o'clock gun from Stanley Park in 1969, took the Speaker's chair from the legislature in Victoria and hung < Volkswagen under Lions Gate bridge. Bill Richardson, a gentle, bearded man who's been the EUS' historian sine 1980, says these stunts give the EUS it sense of pride. "Stunts make people feel they belong because their actions n the papers," says Richardson, adding that they take a lot of time and many fail. The 1980 placing of a Volkswi Bug on top of the Ladner clock towi front of main library shows how much time can be involved, he says. This group got caught trying to put the cat in 1979, went back to the drawing t< and successfully completed the stur year later. Engineering stunts began in 1920, adds Richardson, when a group < "Sciencemen" grabbed a guy, took off his pants and ran them up the flag-pole. This happened at UBC's old Fairview Pranks, stunts and practical jokes - eering stunts and Ubyssey joke s and you can't spend a month or An engineering favorite, and probably the most retold story, is the Great Sculpture Scandal of '63. It began in August, when Steve ring Wh then undergraduate society vice-president, asked engineering dean Walter Gage for ~ m in the basement of what is now imputer science building. Whitelaw _ome other geers had "a project" so Gage lent them the room for the summer. Whitelaw, Steve "Gopher" Waldren and a crew of unnamed rs used it to build eight nouveau tions which were placed around prior to September registration. j was a period of quiet before The Ubyssey printed the first Engineer's letter complaining about the new "art" - UBC students are famous for them. Engin- ories make newspapers throughout Canada campus without hearing at least one good on campus. A controversy ensued and The Ubyssey faithfully followed it with news stories. One fine arts professor said the artwork was "valid artistic expression." Many people thought the sculptures were ugly. Then on a crisp, Wednesday, Oct. 2 morning a large, red jacketed crowd descended upon a welded statue in front of Main Library. Without further ado they destroyed the rebar statue and engineers in groups took chunks of this initial wreck and destroyed five more statues around campus. The next day everyone on campus discussed the wanton destruction of UBC's statues. The Ubyssey slammed the engineers, professors refused to teach them and geers were kicked out of carpools and parties. INSIDE UBC mpus Vane Hospital when UBC v> a high school. Like the EUS, other undergraduate societies have stunts committees but they never manage to stage the rr stunts of the engineers. Richardson says this is because many of the stunts requin complex engineering. However, some ol their stunts — like tying Gord Blanks- tein, 1974-75 Alma Mater Society president, to a crucifix — have required very little engineering. And some stunts, like plac ton engineering cairn at the Pacific and Burrard intersection downtov been stupid and backfired. EUS president Lance Balcom and second y dent Ivor Kokan were charged with being common nuisances after this 1981 stunt, but were later acquitted.

Believe us, there is nowhere safe to park on campus without a sticker (and we're not going to tell you even if there is — we've got cars tool). You may not get caught for a while, but when you do it will be invariably on the night you stumble out to B-lot in the snow at mid-* night after a hard night's studying expecting to find your completed history report (due the next day) in the back seat. This is the stuff nightmares are Don't get caught also refers to crime. B-lot is a giant supermarket for car thieves, with a least one break-in reported daily to the RCMP. Be sensible — lock doors, close windows, hide valuables and don't provide temptation. Cycle thieves also have a great time at UBC; again, an average of one bike a day is ripped off. Kryptonite locks are the only ones which work, say the RCMP, but you can discourage theft by parking in a well lit, peopled spot with something solid to attach your lock to. Don't get caught by someone trying to assault you. Wreck Beach is no longer a friendly place after dark thanks to gangs who like to pick on bourgeois UBC students and serious injuries have been, sustained in fights on the beach./Big numbers are no deterrent; play it safe. UBC is a magnet for sick people and deviants who like to lurk in bushes, flash or even assault students, particularly women. The RCMP urge women joggers to never jog alone, even in daylight and especially on the Endowment Lands trails. In May, a women jogger was assaulted at noon right behind TRIUMF; jogging in darkness is sheer foolishness. Libraries, study carrals and residences are also popular assault spots. Don't be paranoid, but do use your head when it starts getting late, dark or lonely. Always shout for help and try to run away from the attacker. Unfortunately UBC is like anywhere else when it comes to theft. Thieves steal from everywhere — lockers, libraries, gymns, pools, offices etc. A popular scam is to steal a bank card, then call up the victim and get their PIN number off them. NEVER EVER give your PIN number to anyone; the banks don't need | to know it. Don't get caught in an accident. There | are many bikes on campus — in fall i average of 150 bikes per hour we clocked through the intersection Toronto and Acadia, and that's just oi of the main bike routes. Although many | car drivers are ignorant with respect t< cyclists, many cyclists also choose to nil stop signs, ignore pedestrians, drive it wrong places and generally be boors. More than 500 bike accidents annually | are reported to the RCMP as a result, a lot of them unnecessary. Cars are very prone to accidents at UBC. Hit and runs are a "real concern" in B-lot, says Sgt. Andy Lucko. If you see and accident, leave your name and number on the victim's vehicle and get I the license number of the offender. Although many thefts and vandalism acts are perpetrated by non-students, sadly there is an element at UBC which is also responsible. Don't be paranoid, but use common sense at all times when | driving, cycling, jogging or whatever. I you're not foolish, you won't ge caught.

Student Health Services is your invaluable ally in these matters. It is located on the main floor of the Acute Care Unit (the blue-topped building) of the UBC Health Sciences Centre Hospital, right next to Emergency (228-7011). Just follow the sign if you're lost. SHS provides both regular and emergency medical care, as well as health advice on all the topics mentioned below. Your records at SHS are confidential, and cannot be discussed with your parents, or teachers, or anyone else, without your expressed consent. Page 12 INSM • Medical Insurance is a necessity. Nobody expects to jget sick or have an accident, but it happens, and medical bills can wipe out a student's annual budget. Most students are covered by their parents' insurance. Find out for sure if you are; if not, apply through SHS to get your own coverage. In any case, it makes things easier if you know your medical insurance number or have it with you when you go to SHS. • Good Nutrition is vital to long-term health and short- term energy and alertness. If you're not in the habit of paying attention to what you eat with nutrition in mind, you are well advised to start. SHS has pamphlets and so on, but a shortcut is an understanding t>f the four food groups: 1) Milk and milk products: cheese, yogurt, ice cream (if you can take the calories) provide calcium, protein, riboflavin, and vitamins A and D. 2) Bread and cereal: provide iron, B vitamins and fibre. Also carbohydrates (groan). To get the most nutrition from those yummy carbs, try to go for the least refined grains. 3) Fruits and vegetables: supply vitamins A and C, folic acid, fibre and trace minerals. Vitamin C cannot be stored in the body so this group is especially important in your daily diet. 4) Meat and products: supply protein, iron, and many B vitamins. If you don't eat much meat, either as a poverty-stricken consumer or as a purposeful vegetarian, you have to be careful about getting complete proteins. See Recipes for a Small Planet (Ellen Buchman Ewald; New York: Ballantine Books 1973) or The Vegetarian Epicure (Anna Thomas; Toronto; Random House 1972) for gastronomically acceptable ways to get by without A short-cut is Mom's best advice: Everything In Moderation. As long as you eat a little bit of everything, you'll not only escape malnutrition, but the worst side-effects of food additives as well. Of course, the real trick isn't knowing what's good for you; it's the doing of it. Some hiht^: , • make a weekly menu you can live with, then make a grocery list from the menu. • never go shopping on an empty stomach. • try to avoid starving till you can't wait another second. • don't make a habit of eating a candy bar to stave off hunger for another couple of hours. • arrange to eat with friends in organized potluck dinners or friendly cooking competitions. • Dental Clinic John B. MacDonald building, 228-2112. Closely supervised dentistry students do most types of dental work. The cost covers the price of materials. The clinic is also open to the public. Exceptions are sometimes made for. emergencies but generally there's a long waiting list. Hours: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday to Friday. • Fitness has become so fashionable that it is unnecessary to push it here. Current wisdom leans away from the "pump-til- ya-puke" school of working out. The idea is to start out slowly with a new program of activity and do stretches and warm-ups before serious exercise. If you suspect an injury, STOP and have it looked at. Ask for advice before using new equipment or trying a new kind of exercise. And have fun — school is serious enough. • Aquatic Centre Beside SUB, 228-4521.

Besides, reading about all the other courses is fun and an education in itself. Faculties and departments often publish pamphlets contain detailed des< tions of courses available, including reading lists and other additional information. These do not replace the Calendar, but supplement it; you still have to abide by the regulations and require- itioned in the allyir ». If y. barrassed at being well informed, what AA i ifljdl* n that manifests itself here and there all over campus. Do take a Library Tour if you've never taken one before, to learn how to get access to the great wealth of information, and feel free to ask the staff for help in finding something. (See map, page 18). You need your AMS/Library card to borrow books; most students find it's best to carry the card all the time. (That card also gives you privileges such as free swimming at the Aquatic Centre and voting in student elections.) First year students use Sedgewick Library the most; as they go on they usually end up spending more time in the more specialized branches. And, although they're not officially part of the Library, there are also the departmental "reading rooms" containing basic reference material in the field. Rules and procedures for their use are established by the department. If you use the libraries to study, remember that in a community of this size there are likely to be unscrupulous people, and that not everybody goes to the library to study. Exercise normal caution: don't leave your wallet lying around, for example, and at night don't choose a carrel so isolated that you couldn't callfor help in case of robbery or sexual assault. Bookstore The first trip to the Bookstore in September is unavoidable, and may leave such a rotten impression that you don't want to go back, ever. But most of the year, the Bookstore is not a zoo, and it sells books of every type — a wonderful resource if you can afford them. But, even better, it has every kind of paper, notebook, binder, file folder, pen, label, and doo-dad ever produced, formation in any format that appeals to you. (More than one suffering student of Organic Chemistry has survived due to the discovery of colored index cards.) The Bookstore also stocks art supplies, computers, and spiffy casual clothes artfully decorated with UBC logos: a sort of intellectual's department store. Always save Bookstore receipts, at least for ten days. Items can be returned in that time if they're in perfect condition, as long as you have the receipt. Very handy if it turns out that you want to drop the course, or if the prof reveals that she only wants you to read one The Bookstore is located at the corner of University Blvd. and East Mall, diagonally opposite the Bus Loop.

Copy Centre There are photocopiers all over campus, but the cheapest and easiest photocopying is available at the Copy Centre located on the main concourse of the Student Union Building. Self-serve machines copy for a nickel per page, and you don't even have to carry nickels because you can buy a magnetically-charged debit card. There's also a service counter for volume copying, colored paper, collating, binding, reducing, and so on, 224-4388. Farther away is Kinko's Copies in the University Village; although many of their rates are identical to the SUB Copy. Centre's, they levy a 7% B.C. tax as well. Study Skills Training is available at the Centre for Continuing Education (228-2181, Local 245) in the form of courses aimed at improving reading and writing skills. Courses are also offered in preparation for the dreaded English Comp Test.

Speakeasy (Student Union Building, main concourse, 228-3777) can refer you to typists, and there are always several listed in The Ubyssey classifieds. When you hire one, make sure that you both understand what the pric and what it includes. (For example, a 40 page undergrad thesis costs around $90.) Ask to see a sample, if only to make sure that the paper quality is appropriate. Discuss the size of margins.

If your academic problem relates to sexual harassment (this applies to men, too) or is a uniquely female-type situation (like pregnancy) the Office for Students can often help you deal with the multi-faceted n ■e4f the able in the Calendar. The problem is that several kinds of advice are available, and you have to find the right advisor for your situation. Faculty Advisors are usually found in or through the Dean's office. In the Faculty of Arts there is a Senior Faculty Advisor in Buchanan A207. Other facul- Faculty advisors give advice about degree requirements, prerequisites, transfer, withdrawal, and so on. (See p. 81) Faculty advisors are not usually well- informed about courses outside the Faculty and are not really equipped to give career advice. Their main advising role is explaining red tape and helping you through it. Sometimes faculty advice is done through departmental advisors, and although they may be in a better position to discuss career options with you, they're often uninformed about courses outside the department and may be inclined to forget that extra-departmental courses are necessary to a degree. Don't you forget it. Student Counselling and Resources (Brock Hall, 228-3811) can do every kind of counselling except red tape counselling. They have files on careers and professions. They have university calendars from all Canadian and many research the descriptions and admission requirements of any program you might be considering. There are counsellors with whom you can discuss careers and academic choices.

Graduation If the University has your addre: (of c, have been following the rules) you will receive an application for graduation in your final year, or at least in the year in which you might reasonably be expected to graduate. If you haven't received one by about mid-March, get in touch with the Registrar's Office (228-2844). Fill this out, and if all your courses are in order, everything will smoothly proceed towards graduation. Failure to fill out and return the form will render your years of work as valueless. We're serious: many people leave UBC without officially graduating, and are suitably embarassed later when employers check to confirm their degree standing only to find out none was granted.

There are a variety of birth control methods available, and we won't go into them in great detail here. You should discuss birth control with a doctor prior to use. For women it's mainly a health question but men should definitely be knowledgeable and concernec because a potential father is every bit as terrifying as being a potential mom. n of methods and n is possible side effects; • Condoms: actually another barrier method; only form of birth control that can be bought, carried, and controlled by male partner.

We repeat: men as well as women should discuss birth c< trol methods with Student Health Services before beginning sexual activity.

Not recommended for regular use. 4409 W. 10th Avenue 224-5352 B o p& Sexually Transmitted Diseases Well, it happens. The best precaution is to choose partners carefully, choose pn a basis of who you can trust (not such a bad idea in itself, come to think of it). And if you contact an STD, be trustworty yourself: get it properly diagnosed and treated, and inform your past and current partners of the situation. Again, well only do a brief rundown here: • Gonorrhea and Syphillis used to be thought of as the complete list. Both are fairly easily diagnosed and treated; the catch is that women may not show symptoms, so it's especially important to inform your partners. Both can be extremely dangerous diseases if untreated in early stages. Symptoms: syphillis can cause sores or swollen lymph nodes; gonorrhea may be indicated by burning and discharges. • Herpes symptoms are cold-sore type blisters on and around the genitals. Sores will go away untreated, but the virus doesn't. In fact, nothing makes the virus go away, but with proper care herpes is not a serious threat. However, you must always inform a possible partner before giving them this permanent keepsake. • Vaginitis, Non-Specific Urethritis What people usually have when they think they have gonorrhea, because the symptoms are burning and discharge. Caused by various microorganisms; all treatable. Make sure your partners are treated too, even if they don't have symptoms, because they can reinfect you by "carrying" it. • Skin Parasites Scabies and lice. Very itchy skin. Nonprescription Kwellada shampoo or lotion generally does the trick. Give the rest of the bottle to your friend, and wash all your clothes and bedding. • AIDS: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. So new that very little can be known about it, except that it weakens the body's own defence system, it is not yet treatable and most victims die within three years of "AIDS-opportunistic" diseases like pneumonia and hepatitis. It seems pretty clear that there must be intimate contact or a blood transfusion to The Red Cross is (at time of writing) planning a new screening procedure for donated blood and asking high-risk groups not to donate. "High-risk groups" in Vancouver generally means needle users, male homosexuals and bisexuals, and their partners. If you're not in a high risk group, don't have sex with someone who is. (However, refusing to shake hands or something like that is unnecessary and inappropriate.) If you are in a high-risk group, get more information and think it over. Under the circumstances, monogamy may be a very desirable choice. For more information on AIDS, its victims and what you can do, call AIDS Vancouver at 687-2437. • Stress Everything that you do, or that happens to you, is stressful to some degree. Like stage fright, stress can be useful if you react to it in a certain way (for example, reacting to anxiety about an exam by studying for it). However, stress overload can manifest itself in physical ways and impair your energy and efficiency. University life can be very stressful: don't be fooled by that "best years of your life" platitude. Sources of stress can include: • being separated from your family and friends • feeling you have to justify your existence at university with high marks • getting lower marks in university than in high school, and judging yourself as a failure because of it • worrying about the money it costs for your parents to send you here, or the money that is running out faster than your budget allows for • the terrifying realisation that you've never really learned how to study • choices about friends, sex, career, politics, that are i The wicked thing about stress is that you tend nol recognize it. You don't think, "Hey, I'm suffering from st because my marks are lower than my parents expect." You think, "Aaarghhhh, I'm a failure and nobody will ever love n again." The other wicked thing about stress is that there's r way the good folks at Student Health Services can make it j away; they can't fix your marks or explain to your parent INTELLIGENT STUDENT actively pursuing health and sanity by sacking out. Rest is vital. The can teach you how to cope with stress, and how to make it a more positive force in your life, or at least a less negative force. Symptoms of stress can include: • irritability; difficulty in concentrating and making small • changes in use of alcohol or drugs, even prescrip • bad dreams; problems sleeping • changes in appetite with marked weight gain or loss • sense of permanent hopelessness; sense of approaching doom with no escape Drugs and Alcohol Recreational drugs, including alcohol, < available around campus, and you can get them if you want.

But the only other campus group that makes headlines with its pranks is "the vilest rage west of Blanca", The Ubyssey. It had fake stories as far back as 1942 when Pierre Berton made up a story about being attacked near the Van couver School of Theology so he had something to print in the paper. A recent favorite among students is the 1981 joke story whose headline reads: "Records destroyed in freak accident." It begins: "A power failure Saturday destroyed the computerized academic records of thousands of UBC students and graduates . . ." Needless to say, thousands of students had heart failure upon reading this story and they phoned "official" telephone numbers listed in the story. One of these was the UBC president's number, which was jammed with callers. Another number was a Ubyssey phone with which the staff gauged response to the Rumors abound, but none of the editors from that year — Julie Wheelwright, Eric Eggerston, Nancy Campbell and Glen Sanford — have taken full responsibility for the story. As with all Ubyssey joke stories, the source and inspirations are secret. A 1982 prank story about Herpes Aqueous II in the aquatic centre had students hopping mad (there's a hole in city desk to prove it); a 1974 fake story reporting that then kidnapped Patty Hearst had been on campus resulted in ABC news sending a camera crew to UBC. As late as last spring The Ubyssey's joke story (examinations were moved up | a week) made The Province, The Sur and newspapers across Canada. When | the joke story comes this yea remember, it's only a joke. By the way, in 1963 the enginee destroyed only six of the eight statu they placed around campus.

Page 23 ThePoliticsOf By Duncan Stewart AMS External Affairs Co-ordinator It could be said that students at UBC are very lucky. The political climate in B.C. is such that they not only learn about all the strange things that governments do, they also ■eceive a great deal of entertainment. But for a lot of students, the political scene can be quite confusing. It is often difficult to " who is doing what to whom, especially when you aren't ti sure of who the "who and whom" are. 's truly enjoyable to observe a student who has come to UBC from some other part of the country. They tend to wander around with puzzled frown and vacant stare, asking questions like "Where are the Liberals and Conservatives?" and "What the hell is a Social Credit?" For those students, here is a short guide to B.C. politics and politicians. I Don't Think We're in Kansas Anymore, Toto: First of all, you have to realize that nobody is who they say they are. For example, the Social Credit party of today has nothing to do with Colonel Douglas' "funny money" Social Credit. The original Socreds had a nifty policy to help people get out of the Depression. They proposed to give everybody le money. This was a fine idea; the only problem was that I never explained from where they were going to get the money. Today's B.C. Socreds are even weirder. In 1972, 20 years of Social Credit government came to an I end. The New Democratic Party, under Dave Barrett, held power for three years. The Socred premier who had lost to the NDP, W.A.C. Bennett, had resigned the leadership, and the [ Socreds had elected his son, Bill, as their nfew leader. y claiming that the socialist NDP was going to destroy the [ province, Bill was able to create a coalition of the old Socreds, | the Liberals and what was left of the B.C. Conservative party. This coalition was able to defeat the NDP and the Socreds have been in power ever since. In addition to being a strange life-form worthy of study by UBC students, B.C. politicians do a lot of things that are very relevant to us. For one thing, almost all of the money that funds UBC is controlled by the provincial government. Another important consideration is that a majority of the members of the University's highest authority, the Board of Governors, is appointed by the province. Therefore, what happens on campus is, to a very large extent, determined by the government in Victoria. Without being too partisan, it can fairly be said that Social Credit policies have not been good for post-secondary students or institutions. This especially has been the case since the 1983 re-election of Bennett's government. Its theme of "restraint" for some services and massive "mega-project" expenditures for other services has led to a number of problems for Yea, Though I Walk Through the Valley of Transfer Funding: One area that is the subject of a great deal of discussion is federal transfer payments. According to Canada's original constitution, the B.N.A. Act (1867), education is a provincial responsibility. The same act also sets out various powers of taxation to both the federal and provincial governments. In the nineteenth century, the province was able to pay for all levels of education. But as time wore on, the balance changed. The federal government began to take in far more taxation revenue than was originally anticipated. At the same time, greater participation in higher education drove provincial expenditures way up. A deal was struck between the provinces and Ottawa: the feds would transfer some of their money to the provinces to spend on education. That was fine and dandy, but along came Medicare. A national health insurance scheme had certain similarities to post- secondary education, so it was decided to combine the two programs in one unified federal-provincial financing agreement. This was negotiated and signed in 1977, under the name of the Established Programs Financing Act (EPF). At this point, massive confusion sets in. When EPF was signed there was some disagreement as to how the federal monies were to be assigned and spent. The federal government said that they had the right to say how much money of the EPF grant should be spent on health and how much on post-secondary education. The provinces, as is their wont, disagreed. They said that once the federal government had given them the money, it was up to the provinces to spend it as they chose. There was a typically Canadian disagreement and a typically Canadian compromise. The two levels boldly decided to do nothing. The government in Ottawa calmly drew up spending guidelines for education and health and the provinces just as calmly ignored those guidelines. What happened over time was that sometimes the amount spent on education in B.C. was nowhere near what it should have been (according to the feds). For example, this past year in B.C., the federal government through EPF, has contributed 102% of post-secondary education funding. This has prompted many cries of "The Socreds are stealing the money from The federal government supports its argument on the grounds that it is their money, while the provinces respond that it is their responsibility according to the constitution. The result, whichever way you look at it, has been the neglect of higher educ nB.C. I I Can Hear The Violins Playing: lovernment actions have had their effects on students in areas. The first has been the Socred restraint policy, as laid out in yearly provincial budgets. Since 1982, UBC has had its funding either frozen or cut back resulting in, when inflation is accounted for, a net one-third decrease in funding. These cutbacks made tuition fees increase 46% in two years and forced the university administration to cut various programs. Professors have been let go and facilities are crowded. ss size in many courses is ridiculously large and laboratories often have too many people in them using old or outdated equipment. B.C. politics are almost exactly ike a doughnut Even though they seem round and complete from the outside, the middle is empty. The split between the essentially right- wing Social Credit and the equally left-wing NOP means that the parties of the center are non-existent Our situation is somewhat similar to British politics: once a political system becomes suffirierrtiy polarized, it begins to perpetuate itself. There are two factors that combine to create this self-reinforcing loop. The first is that ' the politics of polarization create ill-will. In the legislature, the two sides end up screaming insults at each other. A trademark of a polarized system is that all disputes are perceived as ideological battles - every issue becomes a point of principle, for which its advocates are willing to die and its opponents are willing to kill. In a polarized climate, ; passions and views tend to become exaggerated, inflamed and long-lasting. The second factor builds on the first This is the famed ABT or "Anybody But Them!" effect Moderate Socred voters may not support all of the party policies and want to vote for a "centre" party (such as the Uberals or Conservatives) but they will continue to vote [ Socred. Their feeing will be that to cast a vote for another party will weaken the Socred vote and allow the dreaded commie-pinko NOP to get in. Of course, the NDP voters behave exactly the same way except that they sub in "neo- fascist" for "commie-pinko". The perception is that a vote for a middle party is a wasted vote. Until the Grits and Tories can get some credibility in terms of winning seats, nobody is going to vote for them. Naturally they're not going to win any seats unless somebody votes for them but that doesn't seem to matter to most voters. This is the way that the system is now, but what will happen in the next few years? A second concern is student aid. Until just a few years ago, B.C. had a reasonable student aid program . . . but then the Social Credit government decided to change the format.. At one time an eligible student could apply for student aid and receive some portion of the aid in grant form with the rest as a loan. The Socreds felt this cost too much money: they eliminated the grant portion of the student aid package. This policy effectively increases the debt-load of students. Students in a five year program can easily graduate owing $25,000, a prospect which justifiably frightens a lot of potential students. Some may think there are too many university students in B.C. already, but this is not true. At this time, B.C. has the lowest post-secondary participation rate of any province. B.C. students obviously need a government that improves accessibility to education. Gazing Into The Crystal Ball: Bill Bennett's government doesn't have to hold an election until 1988, the maximui tion. However, there is election about n for this, i illowable under the idency in B.C. politics to call an id a half years. There's no fixed to be about the right amount of A typically Canadian disagreement... both levels boldly decided to do nothing ■ Stewart While there would be nothing to legally stop Bennett from waiting the full five years, this would be perceived by the public as clinging to power. We can therefore expect an election by spring of 1987, at the latest. There is, however, another factor. At time of writing (June 1985), Bennett's government is the most unpopular in Canada. If an election were to be held today, the Socreds would be destroyed. Some people would then think that this would doom the Socreds forever: 'It doesn't matter when they call the election, they'll lose anyway." Nothing could be further from the truth, at least according to Socred plans. It is actually common practice for a newly elected government to bring down a fully thought-out series of budgets. The first two are really full of bad news, complete with all sorts of cuts to social services and job creation and other "social programs." The next budget has a few glimmers of hope and then the final one, just before the election, is absolutely stuffed with all sorts of goodies for everyone, The govemr that its earlier austerity measures were so effective that the yifcOTOjriy has turned around and that everybody can now get everything they ever wanted. If there are a couple of highly visible government-sponsored projects being completed after a good-news budget, you might as well start heading towards the polling booths. This strategy sounds awfully cynical, but it is actually highly effective in reelecting incumbent administrations. But, of course, this is all purely theoretical, right? Anybody who had read a newspaper in the last two years, | however, can see that all the Socred actions fit in perfectly with above strategy. Their first two budgets were extremely harsh and their latest is not nearly so controversial. With Expo 86, ALRT, the Annacis Island crossing, the Coquihalla Highway, even the proposed Vancouver Island pipeline all be- rompleted in the next year and a half, it is obvious that And if I had to guess, I'd say that the NDP will probably win, and probably win big. Which might not be that bad a thing for students. It has long been the popular view that NDP policies are biased in favour of unions and other special interest groups such as I the elderly, the handicapped, the poor, students, etc. While not completely accurate, this view is in most cases correct. Because as a rule, however, the NDP seldom forms the pre vincial government, most of their support for these disadvar taged groups exists in the forms of policy as opposed to legisla- I tion. In those provinces where the NDP has formed the government, the NDP does not always enact all their policies (just ask the Manitobans). Despite this, the NDP still has a pretty good track record for keeping most of their promises, especially in regard to student policies. Right now in B.C., the NDP has a bunch of policies relevant I to students. The first and most important of these is a promise to restore educational funding to 1982 levels, a measure that would | eliminate the harsh effects of the Socreds' educational policies. Another crucial promise relates to the EPF I controversy mentioned earlier. The NDP has pledged to match federal educational funding dollar-for-dollar. Universities-tnus would get all the federal money, instead of just a portion with the rest diverted to provincial eei The NDP also promises to restore "academ c | freedom" and "university independence " While these terms are a little vague, it can be guessed that the New Democrats mean that they, unlike the Socreds, will not interfere with the educational priorities of the universities and will respect the institution of tenure. Both | of these, if they are effected, are good new; university students. One of the most controversial policies is NDP's pledge to get rid of the appoii..._ university Boards of Governors. They suggest ' replacing them with boards democratically elected by students and faculty. It is an teresting idea, and the results of a univer in by the people it is for could be very I | there are lots of presents coming up for the electorate. The old im about the voters having short memories may well prove to be true if the Socreds get their-Wish. But even such projects as Expo have some risk attached to | them. Although it already has a projected debt of $400 million, " this is exceeded, or nobody shows up, the fair could turn in- a political disaster. The betting is that Bennett will look at the attendance projections and cost over-runs just before the fair is scheduled to start then decide (on the basis of if "the numbers look good") whether or not to call an election If it | looks like Expo will be a rip-roaring success, hell wait 'til all the good news has had time to sink in, then call the election. If it looks like there'will be a large deficit, hell call a snap election so that the fair won't tarnish his image. Whatever happens, weTJ likely see an election in the near future And when it occurs there will probably be increased votes tor the middle parties, although Graham Lea's much vaunted United Party will probably not do well One thing is for si n then v boards So you can see that from a strictly student point o NDP has the best policies and is the party that is mc be friendly to B.C. students. -4 ujhtf I can LeArn // I roM lujafvt- juhdf THE WAY THINGS WORK FOR YOO AT UBC BBSTUPENTS Constituency)^ Student Administrative Commission Clubs Students Council ♦ * University Administration ALUMNI BQ UBC^ Faculty Association AMS Committees AMS/UBC Committees UBC Presidential Advisory Committees Business Manager II Businesses The Public OMNIPRESENT BUT NOT OMNIPOTENT UBC students participate in, and are affected by, two organizational structures: the university itself and the Alma Mater Society, the student union to which all UBC students belong. rersity structure includes departments, Faculties, the Senate, the Board of Governors, administrative groups such as Housing, Traffic & Security, Food Services, Physical Plant and Counselling as well as the administrative hierarchy of Deans, Directors, Vice Presidents and the President. The AMS runs pretty much independently of the university organization, although it co-operates, competes and communicates with the system continuously. The AMS is a many headed co-ordinates the smaller been elected groups such as clubs and undergraduate the pubs, restaurants, ticket centre and copy machines, acts politically in the interests of UBC students and offers services to students on a seasonal basis (e.g. JobLink, AMS Used Bookstore) and on a year round basis (CITR, Intramurals). Students Council The main decision making body of the AMS is Students Council. Council includes elected representatives from each Faculty and School, students who'' the university governing bodies, representatives from the major residences and a five person Executive elected by the student body at large. Council sets policy, appro spending, decides on political action; appoints students to both AMS comn tees and UBC Presidential Advisory Council's policies and programs a carried out by both students and permanent staff.

She is assisted by the Vice President, Jonathan Mercer, whose special task is keeping information flowing bet- n the constituencies (the student I organizations in each Faculty and | School). He also runs special programs like the Ask Me Program and the Tuition Fee Lottery. The Director of Finance (DoF), Jamie Collins, handles the money. Every student pays AMS fees. Practically all students pay an undergraduate fee that goes directly to their undergraduate society. Students enrolled in nine units or more are assessed AMS fees of $39.50, broken down as follows: • $15 for CPAC, the Capital Projects Acquisitions Committee, which handles nine capital projects (approved by referendum two years ago) such as student housing, daycare, etc. • $4.50 to Intramural Sports, which • $7 to fund intercollegiate athletic This years edition operates Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. The bookstore is open only during September.

This is because they are supplemented with revenue from business operations to fund the subsidized activities of the AMS such as JobLink, The Ubyssey and CITR student The DoF oversees the flow of all this money as well as the financial affairs of all individual groups and organizations that make up the Society. The Budget committee and the DoF make recommendations to Students Council as to how AMS money should be spent. The Co-ordinator of External Affairs, Duncan Stewart, acts as a link between UBC students and "external" groups. The university and its students do not exist in isolation from the community at large; basically there are three kinds of groups linked to UBC. The first is other educational institutions.

Even without joining organizations such as the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS), UBC still has to keep in touch with what is happening to the university community. The second group is the surrounding community. UBC students have to make sure that all the people of Vancouver know what they're up to. The AMS must inform them through the media, protests and petitions. If UBC is seen to be separate from Vancouver, it becomes much easier to attack. The third and final group is government. At one time, it used to be just the provincial government but, as the system evolved, most of UBC's money now comes from the federal level. The province still controls how that money is distributed, however. In order to preserve UBC as highly regarded, accessible university, students must keep pressuring the various levels of government to guarantee UBC adequate levels of funding. The External Affairs Co-ordinator chairs the External Affairs Committee (EXAC), which actively works on these public issues. Interested students are encouraged to contact Duncan Stewart at 228-2050 or in his office (second floor of SUB). SAC The Student Administrative Commission (SAC), as the name implies, is a commission of students who handle the administrative rather than the political concerns of the Alma Mater Society. It is in effect the "AMS Civil Service" — the real meat and potatoes of the Society. SAC consists of 10 members, each appointed by Council, and the AMS Director of Administration (DoA), Simon Seshadri, who chairs meetings. Each' commissioner is responsible for a portfolio: the programs in the Art Gallery; or overseeing all AMS club and coordinating Clubs Days; or running student elections and referenda; or hiring and overseeing the operations of the SUB Security Team; or keeping the Student Union building livable for students and visitors alike. SAC also oversees the Grad Class'Council and the Homecoming Committee. The Director of Administration works closely with SAC, and oversees all its work. He's a kind of internal vice- president, primarily responsible for the smooth functioning of SUB, and services to the many AMS clubs. He also serves as the AMS link with the University on joint projects, sitting on the Thunderbird Winter Sports Centre and Aquatic Centre management boards. If you have a problem, or if you'd like more information, contact: SAC Com- MONEY MATTERS The AMS conducts business transactions and offers accounting services for about 200 subsidiary organizations. The AMS also manages a number of businesses such as the Copy Centre, Pit Pub and Games Room. Business operant are run with four broad goals: to expand AMS services and facSities; to improve short-term and estab- iish long-term financial stability, to emphasize small profit margins on AMS products; and to increase student employment Last year about $400,000 was paid as wages to students. The four new business operations in the expanded SUB plaza (the restaurant snack bar, and two word processing centres) are expected to add a new dimension to the services offered by the AMS.

Participation Most students participate in the AMS to the extent of reading a Ubyssey, using the copier or word processing services, buying beer, playing Pac Man or joining a club. Some students regularly discuss issues or bring complaints to their representatives in the AMS or on the University bodies. This is a very effective way to participate — like all elected officials, students hate public criticism and will usually try to address the problem. You can influence the direction of the AMS by voting in elections, too. These happen in January (for the executive) and late spring (for the undergraduate representatives). It's often hard to tell the pearls from the swine in all the INSIDE UBC rhetorical mud, but persevere: an intelligent and informed electorate is essential to any organization of this size. Those who want to actually participate in the work of the AMS are heartily encouraged to consider running for a seat on Council (find out how through your constitutency), applying for an appointment to SAC (in September and January — watch for advertisements in The Ubyssey) or applying for a committee position (watch for ads again in The Ubyssey). Generally speaking, some experience of these bodies is necessary before trying for an executive position or a place on Senate or Board. First year students are especially welcome to participate In these groups. They don't have to let the upper level students run the show. Participating in the AMS can be a valuable and exciting experience, no matter at what level that participation occurs. -4 THE COMMERCE Instant Teller <t^ With our cofe'ERCE combination v^x ACCOUNpflSTANT TELLER AND NK INTERBRANCH BANKING, Canadian impe wn I hfi.p YOU MAKE THE GRADE.

Towards the end of the school year, keep your eye open for posters and hours of business. If you're going back to your parents' place for the summer, outside the Lower Mainland, you might consider using the February study break to look for a part- time job.

Find out what 200 people are going to be needed, and how you'd go about being one of them. Call up big tourist or summer things (the trains, Expo, bus tours, the Sea Festival) and ask when they're accepting applications for summer employment. Most of the sources listed in Part-Time Employment are also good sources for summer jobs, especially the University sources. Hundreds of students are hired each summer to do research and help with the Conference season. First and second year students in Engineering, Agriculture, Forestry and Computer Science might be interested in applying to the Cooperative Education Program, in which students are employed by co-operating businesses in their areas of study.

Watch for posters or talk to Counselling. STUDENT LOANS About a quarter of UBC's students require student aid. In B.C. the primary source of student aid is loans. (There used to be a grant-and-loan system, but the provincial government nuked it in 1984). The British Columbia Student Assistance Program consists of a Canada Student Loan and a British Columbia Student Loan. The interest is paid by the respective governments as long as you're a student, and for six months after- The Canada and B.C. loans have slightly different eligibility requirements. Part-time students and those not doing too well academically should check out the details at the Financial Awards Office (see below). The amount of loan you can get each year is based on your "assessed need," which is in turn based on your parents' or spouse's income (if relevant), your earnings, assets, and expenses, and an occasionally arbitrary and whimsical schedule of allowable expenses. A real problem with the new all-debt system of student aid is the very high debtload you can rack up in four or five years. A student requiring substantial assistance can graduate with 15 or 20 thousand dollars of debt — a mortgage, really. The interest paid on this debt will be several thousand dollars, too. If you take a Student Loan once, you must keep the government advised of your student status so they'll continue to pay the interest on your loan. If your CSL and BCSL are at the same bank, it's not difficult?*!!. you get another loan it automatically keeps the government informed. If you miss a year of needing the loan but you're still going to school, have the Registrar validate a "Schedule 2" and send it off. If your two loans are at two different banks, you have to fill out two Schedule 2s. The tricky part is, even if you get a student loan the following year, you have to get a Schedule 2 for your BCSL bank in September or the loan goes into repayment status in Oc- For more information (or if the attempt at explanation above leaves you more confused than before), contact the Financial Awards Office, Rm. 50 General Services Administration (New Admin) Building 228-5111. BURSARIES UBC gives out thousands of dollars in bursaries each year. Bursaries are subsidies given on a basis of need (not to be confused with Scholarships, which are given on a basis of academic merit). Some bursaries are for members of certain groups, as defined by the donor of the bursary money. Like maybe a bursary is for a Ukranian Catholic in second year Nursing, or for the children of members of the marshmallow-makers' union. Some bursaries are open to anyone in need. All are dispensed by the Fi- . M o n # y nancial Awards Office (see above). Bursaries are also described in the back of the Calendar. Pay special attention the deadline dates for each bursary; ui versity bursary applications must be in by Oct. 1 but affiliated bursaries have varying dates. Note that this is a major change from previous years, when the deadline was July 1. Application forms should be picked up from the Financial Awards Office. WORK STUDY This is a form of student aid for people whose BCSAP "assessed need" still exceeds the maximum available loan. Students work for the University, in the library or in their academic department, and are paid the going rate for the job (often better than regular student wages). This program is handled through the Financial Awards Office (see above). SCHOLARSHIPS From the University, the government and private donors, scholarships an given to top-ranking students regardles! of need. Scholarships are debt-free, but not tax free, and they count "earnings" for student loan purposes. But, oh, they look nice on a transcript. (See: Keeping It). Scholarships usually don't need to be applied for; they tend to descend like manna from heaven. However, scholarships offered through affiliated organizations may have t( specially applied for, usually by May 15. Pick up the right forms from the Financial Awards Office. M ANAGING IT It is one of the hard-to-believe truths of life: no matter how much money you have, it's never enough if you don't manage it properly. The first tool in money management is a Budget — a realistic one. Set a realistic amount for long-distance phone calls, for cosmetics, for newspapers, for photocopying, and even for Christmas presents and the bottles of wine you'll be expected to take to parties. Youll never have to show this budget to anybody, so be real with yourself. If the total budget exceeds available money you can either find n above) or spend less, or both. Budgeting doesn't have to be a big formal deal; you can scribble it in the back of a notebook. ^J But you have to have a pretty good idea of your financial status to make intelligent decisions about money. A very good booklet, Student Money Management, is available from the Financial Awards Office. It has usetul information on budgeting, using credit, and shopping wisely, including a schedule of what sales happen in which months. See the sections on Housing, Shopping, and Entertainment from more discussion on saving money. Don't underestimate the importance of your Bank or Credit Union in managing money. Most students have high balances at the beginning of the year that dwindle to nothing through the months, so you may want to look for services that are adaptable to your needs. Other factors: whether you can negotiate both provincial and federal loans, whether they have automatic teller machines, whether they have term deposit minimums you can use, and their rates of interest. Our choice for best student banking service is the B.C. Teacher's Credit Union (TCU). The Alma Mater Society actually invited TCU to open a branch in SUB's main concourse (224-1155) because they could provide the best services for students. TCU has automated "The Exchange" teller machines, which have 40 Lower Mainland locations, outlets in the American Northwest, and a connection with the American Express machines in airports. TCU carries both federal and provincial student loans, processes them on campus and puts the money in your account the same day; they also cheerfully and simply transfer your student loans from other banks at your request. And their term deposit minimum is $500 for 30 days. Unique to TCU is a brand new "Student Budgeter" account, which pays out a monthly 'allowance' from your big September deposit, so you have help sticking to your budget. It will pay a higher rate of interest than a savings ac- scheduled withdrawals for $5 which is enough to keep you from nibbling at your reserve funds, but not enough to hurt if you really need the money in an emergency. The Student Budgeter account results from suggestions made by UBC students and AMS staff, and that's indicative of the best thing about TCU — they're responsive. When students complained about a service fee on machine withdrawals, it was removed. That's the kind of banker you want to have. TCU carries a full range of the usual banking services, and some special services for fac- >W c9 tf1 # y People taking co-operative education courses may not include the time spent on the work component of their program. Also, if you are attending UBC K1 CREATIVE TAX Evasion I. You can't pay it if you don't have it. EEPING IT Now that your money is safely earned and deposited, make sure you get to keep as much of it as possible. When it comes to taxes, there are two rules: (1) Save receipts; and (2) Save anything that might remotely be considered a receipt. Usually students deal with three forms. The first, the T4, simply states your earnings and deductions and will turn up by mail in February or so. If it doesn't, don't even think about filing a return without it — everyone has an income of some sort and you will stand out with no visible means of support. For people lucky enough to get them, the T4A may also be a must since it shows all scholarship and bursary Mailed to you by the University is form number two: the T2202 or "prescribed form showing enrollment status." This piece of paper allows you to claim a $50 deduction for each month of full time attendance (defined as a minimum of four courses, with possible exceptions for three). This is mailed to you in the spring. INSIDE UBC while being paid a salary, the deductions are not allowed. This deduction is, however, transferable to a spouse or a "supporting individual" e.g. Mom or Dad. The last form is an official tuition fee receipt. Unlike the above, you must pick this one up in person from the Finance Office (third floor. General Services Administration Building) sometime in March — usually this date is advertised in The Ubyssey. The value that appears on this form may differ from what you recall paying, but that is because just the raw tuition fee (exlusive of AMS, athletic, pool, el fees) is shown. Assuming that you' paid more than $100 (the minimum i quired before a deduction can be claimed), you or your employer (if he is paying your way) may deduct this am No one else can, unlike the education deduction. Now, this is the sneaky part. Hopefully you've kept all your receipts, as ordered in rules one and two.

Prepared by: Budget, I The University of British Colun sonnel, faculty and support staff. The Board is responsible for approving all recommendations of Senate and thus serves as the final check and balance in all university affairs. The Senate has 87 members: 17 elected students (12 from the faculties and five at-large), 12 alumni, and the President, Chancellor, deans and elected faculty. Senate is responsible for the academic governance of the university, setting and administering policy on course and program content and requirements, university and program admission' standards and quotas, appointments, promotions, appeals and awards. Together Board and Senate must guide UBC through what will be a critical year. UBC is now racing the cumulative effects of provincial government restraint that has reduced its operating budget, in constant dollars, by almost 25 per cent in the past three years. This year the cancellation of nine programs was approved by Board and Senate, and substantial budget cuts were applied to Medicine, Arts, Education, Science and Engineering. Faculty salaries have been frozen for two years; the average salary has slipped from number one to number 18 in Canada. UBC's best faculty (including two presidents this year) are actively recruit- ed by other leading universities and the university is desperately in need of merit pay to keep them here. Tuition fees have jumped by 50 per cent (in constant dollars) in two years; UBC now has the highest tuition fees in Canada. At the same time, Provincial grants were eliminated, making B.C.'s student aid program the worst in Canada, even with the recently announced changes. What further steps shall be taken depend entirely upon the level of Provincial funding for the next budget year. At present this is unknown. However, if the budget is cut again then it is certain that . re drastic measures such as program s and fee hikes will be necessary. This will have a direct bearing on students. The importance of the issues facing UBC places student representatives in critical positions. Except in unique situations, student representatives to board and senate er wield real voting power. How- r, they can be extremely effective in presenting student issues and viewpoints o the Powers That Be and making students aware of the university's issues. By being persistent and well prepared, student representatives have the poten- ' ' to affect critical policy in its for- tive stages. Their effectiveness, however, is directly proportional to the support given by students at large, ""he main function of your student rd and Senate representatives is to I with your concerns. They more than welcome questions or input on any campus issues. Your representatives actually can — and do — make a difference! Please contact them if only for a chat. -4 SUB Room 262 22M101 Nancy Bradshew: SUB Box 119 DonHdubisky SUBBox125 For Studont Senate numbers saa page 81 B.C.

Note that student activity fees are not on this list. To complicate things further, tuition fees may be claimed on an academic year basis or a calendar year basis. UBC normally assumes that you spend all your money in September, even though you likely had a January installment. Another major deduction is the first $500 of scholarships or bursaries received. This deduction is not tRe same for research grants, fellowships or TAships and I will not bore you here with the incredibly messy details. Suffice it to say that if you are a graduate student receiving any sort of the above mentioned money, you should call up Revenue Canada and ask for Bulletin IT-75R2 which will help you figure out your status. The phone number to call is 666-0337. Two other major deduction areas students can normally take advantage of are moving expenses and medical costs. This is where receipt saving gets to be very important. Moving expenses are leeit if vou move at least 40 km closer to your institution (whether or not it is in Canada, but presumably we're dealing here with UBC) and you attend school on a full time basis. Eligible expenses in- Psge38 elude: travelling costs, including reasonable amounts for meals and lodging; and if you're selling a house, the selling costs and legal fees. Students must deduct these costs from income received in the year of the move, with any excess applicable to the following To be claimable, medical expenses must exceed three per cent of income, not a difficult thing for students. B.C. Medical Service Plan premiums are not deductible; however, you should make sure you aren't paying any more than you have to. If your taxable income for the previous year was zero or thereabouts, you are eligible for assisted rates which are much lower than the norm. Call 683-7151 to find out more. If you're not paying B.C. Med Plan premiums, then payments to doctors are deductible, providing you have receipts. This is also applicable to Christian Scientist practitioners. Other big medical deductions that you never think of until it's too late are: hospital fees, dentist fees, prescription glasses, contact lenses and drugs. Yes, even the birth ■ jfyft o n e y control pill is deductible. If you are racking up mega-bucks in the pharmacy, you mav also want to avail yourself of Phar- macare. Once a $200 deductible is reached, drug costs above that value are 80 per cent subsidized. Pharmacare information is available at 736-8387. So, on your federal tax form, deduct 100 per cent of the first $200 you spend on prescription drugs and then 20 per cent of any costs above that (since the remaining 80 percent is reimbursed to you through Pharmacare). Remember, whatever you try to deduct must have receipts to substantiate your claim. Always, always before tossing out any receipts stop to check and make sure they don't say 'This is deductible from your income tax" in teeny tiny print. If in doubt, save the receipt and mull it over next April. Usually, if students play their cards right, nice fat healthy refund checks should be winging their way to you in the summer. It's not all bad being a poor starving type. -4 CFS Service Orgs| 73 SERVICES Travel CUTS, a travel agency r work, is a wholly owned subsidiary CFS, and its profits are used by the Federation to provide other services.

At UBC, ISIC's can be purchased through the CUTS office for a $5 fee Among other things, ISIC cards allov students to purchase airline tickets a super cheap prices. The Canadian Federation of Students (CFS) is composed of 66 student associations from across Canada, 15 of which are in B.C. These assodations joined the Federation through referenda or general meetings, at which students voted to pay the affiliation fee of $7.50 per student. In a 1984 referendum, UBC students voted nCFS. ICFS Canadian Federation of Students Federation p^Efc des etudiants^VHH The Federation is based on the idea that students can be more effective if their political and economic strengths are combined provincially and nationally. This strength results in a strong voice for the education system and in more effective co-operative services than can ber offered on a local or individual scale. CFS is a member of the Defend Education Services Coalition. Along with faculty and teacher associations and other members of the education community, CFS works tirelessly to voice students concerns in provincial and federal arenas.

CUS is also a beehive of activity. To kick off the year is Welcome Back Night at Cecil Green Park (Sept. 27), with P.O.I.T.S. every Friday in the POITS room, where fun-loving Commerce students gather to quaff cheap suds and socialize.

FORESTRY Foresters not only like trees, they like to party. If you don't believe this, check out the many events the Forestry Undergraduate Society sponsors each year. The year begins with Slashburn, the "back from the bush bash." Sponsored by the Logger Sports Club, it's a day of logger sports, fun, games and a hell of a party. Many events take place at the Logger Sports field, East Mall and 16th, which has axe targets, bucking dummies, climbing poles and a burling pond. Forestry Week includes logger sports demonstrations, with an open invitation to other faculties to try their hand at a: throwing and burling. The greatest dance of the year.

You can't miss it; it's the size of downtown Vancouver in bright blue and yellow. Working down from there, Beaver Lumber at 1772 Kingsway has a fantastic line of easy to construct furniture. It is a bit of a drive/bus ride to Beaver, but it's worth it. A five shelf "prepac" bookcase costs $39.99, a desk costs $66.99 and a coffee table $38.99. All you need is a hammer, a few nails and some glue. Yes, they really are easy to build (notches are already carved so all you have to do is insert the correct piece and glue/nail it in) and they look great. The best part about these is once they're constructed, they look bought not built. If you'd like to put together a simple shelving unit, just get some bricks and boards. All it takes are two bricks to hold up a board (large cement blocks work best) and you've got yourself a shelf. Even if you have to buy the cement blocks, they only cost $1.50 Cardboard boxes also work well for storage, so well in fact that one store on 4th. sells "modular cubes" (cardboard boxes with steel frames) for $12.95 "per module."

Keep an eye on the Buy and Sell, and watch for garage sales. —compiled by Mark Leiren-Young Page 54 The UBC Bookstore (when not filled with lineups) is a book gourmet's feast. Of course it also sells computers, shoe laces, silver mugs, Letraset, UBC T-shirts, hi liter pens, ghetto blasters and file cabinets. But, large as it is, the Bookstore is not all Vancouver has to offer. Most bookstores, believe it or not, only sell books. There are a dozen fine bookstores near the university. Take the 34 Hastings Express (until Main Street, it runs at a pre-express, regular snail's pace) to the stop in front of the West Point Grey library. A few steps east is the university branch of Duthie Books at 4444 W. 10th. The three Duthie stores (with another branch in the Arbutus Village, 4255 Arbutus, and the main store at 919 Robson) are the big leagues of Vancouver book retailing. They only sell new books and their prices reflect the high cost of publishing, but if you read about a title in the New York Review of Books or the New York Times Book Review or the Voice Literary Supplement or some other snooty publication, Duth- ie's will have it. To check if they have a particular title on hand at the university branch, call 224-7012. (The downtown Duthie Books is a definite must-see. Recent arrivals, best selling hardcovers and a solid selection of pricey art books occupy the main floor, while the basement houses a paperback cellar where more likely than not you'll run into someone Across the street at 4443 West 10th is Better Buy Books, who buy and sell used texts and have a humungous number of Monarch and Coles Notes for you to cheat from the night before the end of the term.

The Book Mantel was once much larger, taking in three store fronts, but it still has high stacks and any used book store with tall stacks ain't bad.

Collectors Books and Comics, 3626 W. 16th at Dunbar, is a personal fave rave. The front room selection is limited, but behind the counter lay some of the wonders of the comic and bubblegum card world. The back room at Collector's is chock full of great finds: the luridly lusty covers of '40s and '50s paperbacks, include a swell collection of the incomparable Dell line, as well as Westerns, mysteries, romance and original paperback literature.

Check out the newspapers on the racks outside, read a couple of posters on the door on your way in, pick up a zillion pamphlets and broadsides from every political group imaginable, including a few from Trot- skyite sects who they themselves don't even know exist, and before'you've had a chance to peruse the extensive display of hard-to-find mags, you've already learned a ton. There's an entire store of art, literature, politics and history books ahead of you, as well as posters, buttons and postcards. It's a great store, a community place, and it's not even as good as Octopus Books East, 1146 Commercial Drive. Up on Broadway is the neatness of West Coast Books, 3209 W. Broadway. West Coast has a good selection of used art and graphic design mags for about $5 a crack. They're under the first table of books. The store's entire west wall is taken up with secondhand hardcover fiction. Prices are generally a buck or two lower than their downtown and Pender Strip counterparts. West Coast is a good browsing store for those put off by claustrophobic stacks of musty The New Age beckons at Banyen Books, 2685 W.

Co-op organizers claim their prices are about 10 per cent lower than other s. And when prices are the same, the quality is higher.

In most cases they started out as clubs, but as their services and abilities grew the status of "Service Organization" developed. Only nine campus groups are entitled to the special treatment and funding of this distinction: CITR, the First Year Students' Committee, Gays and Lesbians of UBC, Intramural Sports, the Ombudsoffice, Speakeasy, The Ubyssey, Volunteer Connections and the Women's Centre. In some cases, massive budget subsidy is provided by the AMS while in others just office space and moral support is all the assistance sought by the group. All groups are characterized by their sevice nature. Speakeasy and Volunteer Connections are obvious service groups, providing help and opportunities to students. Though it may not appear that way to some, The Ubyssey and CITR also provide valuable communication and shit-disturbing functions. Get to know your service orgs.

Speakeasy also carries thousands of pamphlets from agencies from agencies all over Vancouver on a vast range of topics. It even has a selection of Lower Mainland bus schedules. One of Speakeasy's most popular services is the tutor registry. Tutors in any subject can register; students needing rch through the registry and find the person who best i needs. s also intained FIRST YEAR STUDENTS COMMITTEE The First Year Students' Committee allows first years (a.k.a. frosh) to meet new people and make friends. The annual New Students' Retreat, sponsored by the Alma Mater Society, is organized by the FYSC and gives participants an insight into UBC life. This year's retreat will be at Evans Lake, 10 miles north of Squamish, during the Sept. 13 weekend. Join in the fun! For more information, contact 228-3681 or SUB Room 216A. SPEAKEASY Speakeasy provides information and peer counselling services to UBC students. More than 60 volunteers staff and manage this Alma Mater Society service organization.

Established in 1972, the group provides social, recreational and educational sf vices to the gay and lesbian community and non-gay community of UBC and" Vancouver. The major needs of most gay and lesbian students are simple: a chance to meet other lesbian and gay people in a relaxed environment, an opportunity to develop a knowledgeable and increased self-esteem, and to begin to separate the realities of homosexuality from popular myths and stereotypes. Often university provides the first opportunity for a person to come out and to realize that gay part of his or her identity. Statistically, there are more than 2,500 gays and lesbians at UBC, coming from widely diverse social backgrounds and from every portion of the socio-ec nomic spectrum; indeed from every f> ulty, department and school of the ui versity. Although there is a realization tli lesbians and gays deserve to be treated like any other people in society, they are still subjected on a daily basis to an unacceptable level of legal and social discrimination. This is more than just name-calling. Being homosexual is sometimes cause for desertion by family or friends and may jeopardize jobs, promotions, education and community stature. The "Xp^ S e r v O r 9 s primary source of support is often other gay and lesbian people. As a service organization, Gays and Lesbians of UBC seeks to educate the general community and provide necessary support for members. GLUBC provides educational and referral information, support, guidance and peer counselling to lesbians, gays and other sexual minorities at UBC as well as educational and referral services to the campus community. A telephone line is offered from 9:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday; 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 a.m. Fridays; and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Sundays at 228-4638. You can also drop in to the office at SUB Room 239 at the same times GLUBC has a library containing information, literature and periodicals on subjects of interest to gays and lesbians as well as a well-established lecture series that operates throughout the year. A bi- •weekly discussion group and a speaker's bureau is planned to be added this year. Social functions include dances throughout the year, potluck dinners, pub nights, wine and cheese parties and movie outings which provide additional opportunities to meet gay and lesbian people in a social environment. If you would like more information, write GLUBC at SUB Box 9, or drop by SUB 239 or call 228-4638. WOMENS COMMITTEE The Women's Centre is an Alma Mater Society service organization with he goal of improving the status of wo- en at UBC. The Centre is in SUB Room 130, just side the north entrance to the building. The office contains a resource library and up-to-date information on events of terest to women and other feminists. The Centre organizes regular open dis- issions on issues such as rape, sexual rrassment and birth control and offers urses in Wendo (women's self-de- nce). All women are welcome to use he Centre and its resources. Women's Centre regulars also address and act on issues in the community and campus. Each year they organize Women's Week, with a major speaker and several guests of interest participating in CITR One of the oldest campus service organizations, CITR began in 1937 with a group of UBC students producing an informative variety show, "Varsity Time," broadcast regularly on CJOR and CBC. Actual studio broadcasts began in 1947 and, in 1975, CYVR (as the station was then known) was first carried on cable FM. Alumni from this period include Richard SaxtonjT^jHarrison, Sorelle Saidman and Ellie ODay. Real FM broadcasting began in 1982 with a big 49 watts, going stereo 3nW84. This year CITR plans to boost its signal to a competitive 4900 watts. Along with the power increase, a people increase is needed, so read on and see what takes CITR's programming goes beyond providing the newest in alternative music: live broadcasts of UBC Thunderbird hockey, football and basketball games (including both home and away games); four daily news/sports/weather reports focusing on campus and community i lated events are featured; Generic F view tells you all about movies, pla; art shows and practically everythi else; and a sometimes serious sometirr lighthearted look at issues of the day < provided in Insight. In addition to all that, CITR has man specialty programs, including: • The Jazz Show — Vancouver longest running prime-time jazz prograi • Power Chord — Vancouver's only true metal show • Neither Here Nor There — music, interviews, prose and poetry readings • Just Like Women — a magazine of women's issues of all kinds.

OMBUDSOFFICE A somewhat nebulous service organization is the Alma Mater Society Ombudsperson. Appointed by Students Council, the Ombudsperson investigates, complaints by students against university authorities, including the AMS itself, professors, staff, dubs and/or service organizations. The Ombudsperson's authority is not official and depends entirely on the cooperation extended by the groups involved. Fortunately, in most cases, co- *ived. . All i If you're still not convinced CITR is a great thing to do when you're at UBC, consider this: CITR can provide you How can the Ombudsperson help you7 Usually by providing direction on how to best approach the problem, since the office is familiar with the tricky ins and outs of The System that the average student does not know about. Currently no one is the official Ombudsperson, although the office in SUB Room 100A is open or, if closed, receiving messages. If you are interested in 228-4846. There is talk of a possible merger with Speakeasy this year: stay tuned to The Ubyssey for further develop- THE UBYSSEY You may love it, you may hate it, but you still have to live with The Ubyssey, one of the most visible service organizations on campus. Fifteen thousand copies are published Tuesday and Friday S e r v i cc Le (§) fr | during term and distributed free all over campus. The Ubyssey began in 1918 and has a long tradition of famous alumni, including Alan Fotheringham, Joe Schlesinger, Pat Carney, John Turner, the notorious Les Bewley, prosey Pierre Berton, Mamie Maloney, a bunch of people who write for the Sun (and other papers) and many other legends in their own minds. Although funded by the student society, The Ubyssey manages to maintain editorial autonomy from the hacks. Enuff facts. You want to find out how to get involved. The easy way: Read the paper twice a The fun way: Write for The Ubyssey. Once you show up in The Ubyssey office (SUB Room 241K, on the second floor with a beautiful view of the mountains) there are a number of ways to get involved: I • Write news: Some would say this is the most important thing the paper does. Others say . . . well, who cares about them anyway? Issues like funding, cutbacks, scandals, campus happenings and incompetence everywhere are just waiting to be exposed. • Write reviews. The Ubyssey covers campus theatre, music, dance and movies as well as alternative entertain- I ment off campus. Get free tickets to whatever you review plus see your byline in Friday's entertainment section. • Write sports. Tons of people on and off campus run around throwing things, running after things or otherwise trying to make their opponents look inept and unprepared. Write about it and/or take photos of the fun. Speaking of which. . . • Take photos. The paper loves pages with great pix of news events, review subjects, sports and people just hanging around. A real photog shortage is anticipated this year even though The Ubyssey supplies film, paper, chemicals, • etc. and has its own darkroom. • Write features. Some things require in-depth analysis in a form longer than a news story and that's a feature. With a bit of experience, you too can get your teeth into a meaty issue. • Everything else. Plenty of proofreading needs to be done and lots of pages must be designed and laid out. There are also great staff parties and the staff plays soccer every Sunday at 11:30 a.m. Anyone wanting to join The Ubyssey should drop by the office (SUB Room 241K, hint hint), look at The Ubyssey's booth on clubs day or call 228-2301 (ask Page a o speak to Stephen Wisenthal or Debbie Lo, the co-editors). Check the hallowed pages of the paper for special new staff recruitment events; generally staff meetings are at noon on Wednesdays and new staffers are more than welcome. VOLUNTEER CONNECTIONS Today, many types of interesting and challenging volunteer placements are available to students which complement academic, career and personal interests. Opportunities provided by Volunteer Connections range from theatre to counselling, radio to health services, recrea- and education to ad- filling requests related to individual c reer goals and interests. Volunteer Connections is an Alma Mater Society service Organization and has contacts with hundreds of agencies throughout the Lower Mainland. Students who would like some help finding an appropriate volunteer job should take advantage of the services of Volunteer Connections. Anyone interested in volunteering or just information about volunteering should contact Volunteer Connections in the Student | Counselling and Resources Centre, Brock Hall 200, or call 228-3811 to make an appointment.

Volunteer jobs provide both employment experience and a reference for future job applications. University life can cause a great deal of tension; volunteering is also an excellent way to relieve this tension by focusing on something other than studies. Volunteer Connections was formed to provide students with interesting and challenging placements. It specializes in INSIDE UBC trouble getting o play, you should visit the Intra Sports office in September.

Events The ARTS '20 Relay, the largest Intramural sports event in Canada, is an eight person race first run in 1920 under the direction of the graduating Arts class of that year. Originally intended to re as a legacy to the graduating class of 1920 and to the "Great Trek" of 1922, race has become an historic reminder today of the university as it existed then Fairview (the present site of Van- ver General Hospital) before it was officially moved to Point Grey in 1925. In its recent history, the relay, ^anized by and for the students of UBC, has grown from five teams and 40 student runners in 1969 to over 108 faculty staff and student teams-in excess of 1,400 participants in 1984. Watch for it during Homecoming Week. The Triathlon will be run in three heats on Saturday, March 8. The event begins with a one mile swim (32 laps of the pool). The swim is followed by a I mile cycle along Marine Drive and a For further information, keep watch for advertising notices around campus or visit the new Intramurals office in room 66, New SUB Plaza (228-6688). Job Opportunity Just as Intramural Sports caters to the needs of all levels and varieties of par- rants, so too does it offer practical experience to students in a variety of >ciplines. While the most immediate and obvious candidates for positions as Intramural student administrators are students from the physical education recreation faculties, there are great opportunies in such other areas as pro- ions, advertising, marketing, research, business administration, graphic •ts, computers, film arts, layout, media and journalism. Enquire at the Intramurals office for further details on career-related jobs. Although the following groups are not service organizations in the strictest sense of the AMS Code, they do provide valuable functions. Some receive a little student assistance: Intercollegiate Sports directly through a $7 student activity fee and the new $32 assessment, the Alumni Association through some AMS grants and the UBC budget (which includes your tuition fees). Read on and find out what's in store for you during your brief tenure at UBC. . . WHISTLER CABIN One of UBC's best kept secrets is j AMS Whistler Lodge. Located betw< the Whistler mountain and Blackcoi lift stations, it's obviously a boon poor students who ski. What most people don't realize is tl it's empty most of the week, and can a great place to write the elusive te include climbing, windsurfing, golf and music festivals. Winter activities include skiing (of course), indoor tennis, and watching the hoi polloi and the yuppies on vacation. The lodge is equipped with scandalous luxuries: two lounges with massive stone fireplaces, stereos, meeting or partying ia/sho» mplex detached sleeping area for 50 or so. All this is quite reasonably priced - more information and reservation available through the AMS Informatioi Ticket Centre in SUB. CPAC Before getting into the nuts and bolts of CPAC, the Capital Projects Acquisition Committee, a brief understanding TUDENTS PRACTICE dropping from second-storey height as part of Fire Awareness Week. of the why of the committee is needed before the what, how and when stuff. In today's dollars, UBC students have contributed more than $30 million towards university structures. This altruism began in 1928 with the construction of the women's gym and includes such landmarks as Brock Hall (1939), War Memorial Gym (1948), Thunderbird Winter Sports Centre (1963 and 1969) and SUB (1968, 1972 and now 1984). Students also supplied partial funding for the Aquatic Centre (1978) and Sherwood Lett (1960). Simply put, CPAC is the student-run administrative body in charge of the current building phase. This began in 1982 when a capital fund, raised from a $15 per student annual levy, was created by referendum (by a whopping 75 per cent of the voters). Seven specific projects were approved: improved student housing, construction of new daycare facilities, SUB renovations, improved parking, a recreational centre, purchase of the land under the Whistler Cabin and restoration of the B-Lot Horse Barn. To date two projects are complete: the cabin land purchase and the SUB expan- Although mega-bucks are involved, leadership comes from the students on CPAC, though professionals are of course involved in the actual design and construction. Like the Student Adminis- bers are volunteers interested in doing their best for students. No public election is necessary, just approval from a Student Council committee.

Remember — you could be worse without a nurse. PHARMACY Pharmacists have scruples, even if they don't give a dram . . . that's why the Pharmacy Undergraduate Society starts off the year with a Brother-Sister Night and pot-luck dinner which allows new students to meet their illustrious third and fourth-year elders. Other events this year include Oktoberfest, Hayseed Night and Skits Night. The annual Manning Park Ski Trip is planned for midterm break. PhUS is very involved in intramural sports, including soccer, hockey, basketball and volleyball. Within the faculty, the annual Norm Zaccharias Competition between the years will be held Want to get involved? Give president Juliette Holmes a call at 228-3183 or drop by the PhUS office. Always remember that pharmacists are indispen- sible. PHYSICAL ED The Physical Education Undergraduate Society strives to strengthen student-faculty relationships, promote student cohesiveness and promote PE's professional philosophy throughout the university. Social events this year include beer gardens, dances and festive eggnog and rum at Christmas. New students are encouraged to attend PEUS's orientation in early September and the wine and cheese party at the end of the month. Do you have problems, enquiries or suggestions? Drop by the PEUS office, Room 301 in War Memorial Gym, or leave a note in the PEUS box outside the PE office. Failing that, give president Francine Bernais a call at 228-6175. PLANNING - C o n s t i t science, forestry, physics and English students engaged in this professional program. The PSA promotes student awareness of the different planning associations which exist. Delegates attend conferences to discuss urban issues that affect environmental awareness. The PSA is closely in touch with the Canadian Association of Planning Students so members know where to get information on policies and data on agricultural land reserves,, uranium resources, regional planning programs and neighbourhood organizations. Why don't you join the more than 60 students involved in the PSA? Contact the association through SUB Box 238 or call president Ann MacDonald at 288-4409. u e n c i e s ing to keep "Rehabbers" out ot mischief — apart from maintaining an active interest in campus activities and intramural sports (hockey fans, look out for the Therapeutic Stick Handlers!).

Elections are held this fall for several council positions. For more information, call president Michelle Neilly at 228-3903. REHAB The School of Rehabilitation Medicine was established in 1961 as a school within the Faculty of Medicine. It is one of 11 schools of Rehab Medicine in Canada and the only one in B.C. The 85-86 year is a special one for the school in that it is the first year that all of its students are enrolled in either a physiotherapy program or an occupational therapy program. (Previously, students graduated from UBC as "combined" therapists and were eligible to apply for either PT. or O.T. positions.) Each year, about 20 students are accepted to each division (P.T./O.T.), making a total of about 120 students in the school. There is a lot besides study- INSIDE UBC The Science Undergraduate Society is the overall organizational body for the many science clubs, activities and committees. SUS's job is to promote all activities that science students want to see happen. This includes organized sports, speakers, science clubs, bzzr gardens and good times in general. Science Week, Jan. 20-24, is particularly noted for good times. (What Black Plague?) SUS provides student reps for the various faculty committees and is in close contact with the dean's office. The SUS executive council helps individual departmental clubs as much as it can. Keep abreast of Science events: read SUS News and check out the wall posters. If you're interested in helping out or want to participate in sports, the newsletter, chariot races or anything else, drop by the microcosmically small SUS office, Biosciences 1500, or call president Don Mustard at 228-4626. SOCIAL WORK The Social Work Students' Association represents students at committee and departmental levels within the school, the university at large and the professional social work community. The SWSA takes an active role in community affairs; for example, it's protested against income assistance cutbacks. The association arranges visiting speakers and social events and sponsors the Graham Cracker, the school newsletter. Get involved. If you've got something to say or want to party, give president Shelena Nialana a call at 228-2255. Elections will be held this September -4 GOING CRAZY Life At UBC Is Not All It's Cracked Up To Be Scenario 1: It's February, you're in fourth year and suddenly everyone is changing. Relationships are breaking up, people are unhappy, normally withdrawn people suddenly become effusive, and the students you thought had their shit together suddenly start cracking up. It's not happening in just your class but in other faculties too from what you can tell. Scenario 2: If s your first November at UBC and you're not doing well., Everything is so impersonal; the midterms you studied so hard for are a disaster and there's no one to help you. You don't have any really dose friends yet to rely on, and at home everyone thinks you're a genius just for being at UBC. What are you going to do? These scenes. Fourth Year Syndrome and First Year Trauma, are among the many you or your friends will encounter while at UBC. The most important thing to remember is that you are not alone — that these dramas are played out year after year and that solutions are available. If you're in first year, always remember that 47 per cent of you will fail at least one course. Don't ever feel you're not normal if you get caught in one of these dramas. UBC is designed to stress students — to make them demand the most of themselves, and then some. With the current cutback situation, these stresses are heightened; a 30 per cent increase in counselling clients was reported last year. It can be argued that a real part of your education is learning your limits and coping with the stress. No one will say it's fun, but to many if s necessary. In fact, it seems most faculties design third year to be the "killer year" — when you have to memorize everything, do it at top speed, and churn out at least tv essays/labs a week. Although most students will be subjected to these stresses, a critically affected group is older returning woi students. In addition to the nor rough and tumble of UBC, these students often must also contend with raising a family, economic problen time management, and lifestyle problems. Don't be ashamed to admit ti these additional burdens; plan for them accordingly. There are many solutions to these crises, ranging from the simple to the highly medical. Most important: be a friend to people you see in distress. Take them for coffee; get them to talk. So many problems shrink when you don't feel as alienated as before. Sometim new insight is all that's needed to make you feel better about your situation. If you're by yourself, give yourself a treat. A favourite is the steam room in the Aquatic Centre, a great post-Chem 230 Christmas exam boost. As well a being warm and wet, the steam roon gives you a chance to cry your eyes out if need be without worrying about explaining why your face is flushed or eyes wet. Another alternative is to join a club which allows you to let off steam, whether by throwing clay, or hurling But maybe you want more than the temporary solace offered by these a tivities. If you want personal, yet anonymous, attention, drop by to page 70. . GET CLUBBED Of all the many marvelous things to do that exist at UBC, clubs must be the most diverse and satisfying pursuits. Unlike some institutions, there are no limitations at this campus on how many or what type of clubs students may join; the only constraint is time itself. In this section nearly half of the clubs are described, with a listing of all clubs included on this page. Because they are constituted under the bylaws of the Alma Mater Society, clubs are open to all students — not just the group implied in the title. For example, the Chinese Varsity Club is basically full of people who like to party with ethnic considerations a non-priority. Some of these clubs are a little hard to contact. In almost every case a SUB box number is given. To communicate via letter, just take your missive in hand to the AMS Business Office (SUB second floor) and ask them to put it in the box. If you want faster connections, just ask the Business Office receptionist for the name and phone number of the president of the club you're interested in. Many clubs also have a room to hang out in and members can usually be found in that vicinity during lunch hours. Room numbers, where applicable, are given. If you want to be passively exposed to clubs, instead of assiduously tracking them down, you have two options. The first is to scan the 'Tween Classes section of The Ubyssey. Listings of major, minor and miniscule events can be found on a day by day basis. Yes, it's teeny tiny print but even at that rate the Tweens can take up 30 inches of space each issue due to the incredible number of events. The second option comes but once a year: the notorious Clubs Days. On Monday, Sept. 24 and Tuesday, Sept. 25 SUB turns into an arcade highly reminiscent of the PNE, with booths, demonstrations, videos, films, practices and literature galore. See someone sky dive onto the SUB plaza. Watch a fencer attack a Kendo master. Taste munchies. And talk sugh marks," and "What good will having fun do for my career prospects?" are common attitudes. Well, listen up youngsters. It's a big bad world out there and you will be noticed more by an employer if, in addition to a reasonable set of marks, you feature a well rounded, interesting resume. You may not believe this, but most employers don't (rive a damn about rks, they give a damn about You itmg, capable of management, and/c formed about the company's product or skill? You can benefit yourself as well by using clubs as a means of "testing" your interest or ability in a chosen field. Clubs can provide opportunities for money and people management, travel, organization and networking. Some students, upon graduating, simply turn expertise acquired through clubs into their own business. Even if all this means nothing to you, there's one more reason why you should join a club. It's fun. Yup. Even a little distracting from studies. You need that. Don't forget, all work and no play makes Anne a dull accountant. Besides, you need a venue to meet new love interests. You need a reason to get out of bed on the weekend. You want something to put o pleas parents/lover/children/friends. You want to join your parents/- lover/children/friends. All or any of the above will suffice. So get reading and start thinking about this coming year's activitiesl Clubs marked with 0 have confirmed they will be present at Clubs Days. Fun, exciting, informative, and wild and crazy is how members describe this club. Everyone is welcome to share the opportunities to meet and share a drink(s) with RIAs, CGAs and CAs or visit a CA firm or even listen to career planning presentations.

Sometimes just crying on a shoulder is all that's needed to take the blues away. If you want more intensive or face-to- face counselling, the Women's Student's Office is a resource par excellence, ex- pecially for "women's problems" (e.g. rape, incest, motherhood). Head hon- cho June Lythgoe and her co-workers really are the warm caring people you need in time of trouble. Another is Counselling and Resources Centre.

For those who feel very desperate or more medicinally inclined, drop by the Student Health Services. Dr. Dorothy Goresky, for example, specializes in stress. Especially if classroom stress is destroying you, don't hesitate to see the physicians in SHS about getting a medical deferral for exams or assignments. Nobody wants you to kill yourself over your courses, but sometimes you need an official piece of paper to convince yourself that you really do have a legitimate problem. No appointment is necessary — just drop by the SHS, fill in the request slip and within minutes be seeing someone about Should you feel you want psychiatric care, a number of routes are available. You may want to be referred by SHS, Women Student's Office or Counselling. Or you may just want to walk right into the psychiatric office (just off the SHS ;e) "Hi, I'n depressed/upset/stressed out and I need help." The friendly receptionist will make you an appointment or you might even luck out and see a shrink right away. The nice thing about SHS is that, by being on campus, you can easily squeeze in appointments between classes and no one need know, unless you want them to. Sometimes help will involve a deci sion on your part to drop a course o even drop out all altogether depending on your situation. The important thing to realize is that, despite the way your classes program you, credit hours are not the end all and be all of your existence at UBC. There is so very much more to be gained from the educational enterprise than mere marks; so m never realize this until it's too late (the fourth year syndrome). It is essential that you recognize your problems when they occur and act on them, not paralyzed with inaction until it's late! Although it's hard to believe, you will gain from your unpleasant experiences you have at UBC. Perhaps it's the maturing process, or just life itself, but graduating students who feel they've learned about themselves as well as their subjects are the more satisfied people. Above all, never lose hope when you're down; there is help here at UBC, often it's just a question of finding it. - by Nancy Camy.
