Marine Drive at Bewicke, North Vancouver EDITORIAL NOTES You, yes you, the student enrolled at the University of a Billion Confused (UBC), deserve a hearty congratulations. "Why, not little 'ol me?" you ask. Yes you, I repeat. You've emerged with your sanity and your enthusiasm relatively intact after the harrowing, sweat-filled nightmare known as registration. You slithered your way around buildings collecting computer cards and getting forms signed and co- signed, and you endured the inispid act of standing around in line-ups longer than the ones to buy tickets to see Michael Jackson. Registration was an intimidating thriller, but you beat it. Hold it, there's more. You also deserve applause for even making it this far. UBC could soon be known as the University of a Billion Cutbacks. "A cutback here, cutback there, here, there everywhere," is the sad tune ringing through UBC halls. You made the grade necessary for entrance to the university that «««1 WORD OF Wmmmmmm The long and exceedingly arduous task of preparing Inside UBC was made much easier with the help of a number of kind-hearted individuals. Special thanks go to Keith Spivak, the artist who dreamed up the color designs. Spivak is an Emily Carr student, member of the Teahouse crack A-team busperson squad, and the world's fastest vacuumer. Thanks also to all the writers and photographers who contributed to this year's handbook. Brian Jones and Yaku, your efforts have not been for- Thanks also to the following who helped in one way or another: Sue Bockhold, Glenna Chestnutt, Gordon Clark, Margaret Copping, Don Holu- bitsky, Terry Jackson, Shaffin Shariff, and the Ubyssey staff for sur- rendering their office and photo and graphics file. A final word of thanks to the workers and management at College Print-, Spivai(ski) era for their help. And to the dayshift crew at College — you really do know what art is all about (although you insist no one named Art works with you). —Wongtkl was made stiffer than ever because of the cutbacks. Way to go, but just because you're in doesn't mean things are peachy keen and neato. Thar's rough sailing ahead Billy, you'd best batten down the hatches — unless you want to be blown ashore. Courses, whole departments, teaching staff, support staff and countless other areas are being cut back at UBC because of the precarious financial situation created by underfunding from the provincial government. That commie rag, The Ubyssey, regularly runs stories on the front page that reminds you all of the ongoing cutbacks. If you are confused about all this cutbacks mumbo-jumbo, read that rag or pertinent parts of this handbook, or go have a chat with the amiable souls in the AMS, Board and Senate offices. Don't be taken in by cheery souls with their heads in the gravel who insist there is nothing wrong. Important parts of this university are headed for that big campus in the sky unless something is done. Take time to find out what you can do. Whoah, did you really think I was going to leave you on such a downer of a note. Nope. While you're pondering the above- mentioned issue, there's trillions of hip things to do on campus and in the big city. Many of these immensely exciting and thought- provoking activities are documented in Inside (say in Inside quickly 10 times) UBC. So on that up-beat thought, just remember that this book is crying out to be read. (Do you hear it? "Read me, read me.")

Bob Ford, Manager, Corporate Planning for MacMillan Bloedel, already had a B.Sc. and an MBA to his name when he undertook the demanding Certified General Accountants program. Gilding the lily? Not so. Bob chose the CGA program because "possessing a sound knowledge of •accounting principles and practices is a major asset in any organization and the higher you aim, the more important that knowledge becomes!' The CGA program is complete, comprehensive and contemporary. It teaches not only the methodology and technology of accounting but a dozen different disciplines from Economics and Computer Systems to Taxation and Auditing. No professional qualification is more respected throughout Canadian business, industry, commerce and government. When you combine your present diploma or degree with a CGA, you are building your career on a sound and sought-after foundation, wherever you choose to work, whatever calling you choose to follow. Bob Ford, B.Sc, MBA, CGA MacMi?an Bloedel Ltd Talk to us about your ambitions. We'll explain how a CGA can help you achieve them.

On this program, a student can work a few hours per week on campus, which could be at an interesting career-related job, for decent wages, and help the university too. If you suddenly find yourself short of money, don't contemplate dropping out. An emergency loan program is run by the UBC financial awards office. This fund supplies small amounts of money to help you through a rough period. Applicants must have a co-signer. The loans must be repaid so students can use the fund next When you picked up the registration calendar, you may have noticed the back several pages that are filled with hundreds of bursaries (need based), and scholarships (academic related). The deadline for most of these has passed, but it is worth your while to look through this. Make sure to apply next year — believe it or not many often go unused because of a lack of applicants. For further information on student assistance, work study, emergency loans, and/or scholarships and busaries, contact the financial awards office. They will be please to simplify things, and see what they can do to make sure that you have the money to go to school. TIME FOR CHANGE Access to a post-secondary education is a fundamental issue which should not be decided by financial background. Having the worst student aid program in Canada because it is all-loan, doesn't do much to help accessibility to education. Financial awards officers, your students society and students across the country are fearful that many people will decide they can not afford high debts, and will forfeit higher education. "The high debt load will be a deterrent to anybody who lives outside the lower- mainland, to mature students, and anybody who isn't from a middle or upper-class background," recognizes Margaret Copping, Alma Mater Society president. Maximum debts could be as high as $20,800 for a four year degree, and $26,000 for five years. Calculate interest at prime plus one per cent during the entire repayment period, and you may soon have a hefty sum. A second degree would just compound that figure. Your student society, the AMS, is mounting a letter writing campaign. (See page 83 for details.) If you have any other ideas go and visit your reps since they don't have any other major plans right now. Who knows, they may put your AMS fees to good use! Make sure that both your student reps and your MLAs know you are concerned about the state of the student loan situation. If half of the UBC population write a letter to the government, or participate in a protest — we may begin to see change. Lisa Hebert is a former AMS executive member who could someday write an eight volume treatise on student INSIDE UBC By MARGARET COPPING Office for Women Students: A University-run service providing professional counselling, liaison with other university services, faculty and administration, a resource library and a lounge for talk and relaxation. It also offers a number of skill oriented workshops such as essay blues, assertiveness training, career planning and job search strategies. Groups dealing with issues and providing support for women students are arranged and information on personal and educational concerns is made available. Located in Brock Hall, Room 203, 228-2415. Open Mon.-Fri. Women's Centre: an AMS Service Organization, funded and run by students, providing peer support. It has contacts with local and national women's organizations and is oriented towards political action. The Women's Centre offers workshops in wendo (self-defense). It also organizes Women's Week, with a major speaker, and special events and offers periodic sessions on womens' issues. Located in SUB 130, tucked away behind the outer set of doors at the north entrance to SUB. 228-2163. Usually open Mon.-Fri. The Women Students' Office and the Women's Centre maintain contact and exchange information, but they are quite different in attitude and atmosphere. The staff at both are friendly, sane and highly recommended. But be aware that they serve different purposes. g|g||altli/Birth Control Student Health is very happy to deal with students' questions on health and choosing the most appropriate birth control methods. And everything is confidential. Nobody ever sees your health records at Student Health unless you sign a release. Even if your parents were to phone, the staff would first discuss with you what they should be told. Nor should you worry that you might just be wasting their time if all you want is a general discussion of birth control techniques, sexually transmitted diseases or anything to do with health. Even if you don't need birth control, you should be shouldering the other responsibilities of being an adult female: PAP tests, learning how to do breast examination, and so on. The Office for Women Students "is also available to discuss any of these The counselling at Student Health is non-judgemental. They don't approve or disapprove. They won't try to talk you into taking any particular form of birth control. And they're very friendly. You can also request one of the women physicians on staff. Student Health can also arrange therapeutic abortions, and is one of the few facilities to provide a morning- after pill (also available at Emergency, in the same area.) Student Health is a terrific service for all health problems, and they understand the special problems that students face: the delicate relationship between health and academic stress and achievement. The one problem with Student Health Services is that it's hard to find. It's located in the Acute Care Unit (the blue topped building) in the Health Sciences complex (south of University Blvd. and west of Wesbrook) and it's just around A Women's Guide To Campus the comer from Emergency. It may be a good idea to find it before you get sick, on the assumption that if you're really sick, you may never find it. To call Student Health Services from inside the university system, dial 82, wait for the dial tone, and then dial 7011. From outside dial 228-7011. Sexual Harassment Nobody has ever defined sexual harassment to everybody's satisfaction. But it can be said that when sex, and all the little.attendant social things that are associated with it, (flirting, dirty jokes, etc.) get mixed up with power and status, sexual harassment can be one of the things that results. The classic case of sexual harassment INSIDE UBC in an academic situation is the offer or threat of good marks in exchange for sex. In an employment situation, the classic case is unwanted sexual attention that can't be refused because the job might depend on it. Less often spoken of is the kind of sexual harassment that isn't based on wanting sex, but wanting to keep the victim uncomfortable, off-balance or less of a threat. Profs can crack dirty jokes in class. Fellow students are capable of this sort of thing as well. It's especially confusing because the victim's instincts tell her the guy doesn't particularly want sex — so if can't be sexual harassment, can it? Don't be fooled. Sexual harassment can be verbal or physical, and is most easily denied or defended as a joke, which puts the victim in the even more uncomfortable position of demonstrating a deficient sense of humour. Much of the time,, the perpetrator is unconscious of the effect he is having on the sufferer — a much subtler problem than a simple power play. He may really think of it as a joke, or affectionate teasing. UBC has no policy on sexual harassment. Problems of this sort are handled by the Office for Women Students, and the staff there may be able to offer informal ways of dealing with the problem. Unfortunately, UBC is not a gentle garden of academe where women are concerned, especially at night. Avoid_ dark paths and roads and stay close to' buildings that are open and populated. If your schedule demands a lot of walking around at night, seriously consider a course in self-defense (The Women's Centre offers wen-do.) There are also several campus transportation services. On the city routes, the current Forty- First bus schedule includes night service from the bus loop beside SUB, to Totem Park. (This service used to be on the Tenth bus route to UBC). Also, Traffic and Security operates a shuttle bus from the library to the residences, B-Lot, or wherever the passengers need to go on campus. It runs from 7:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. on evenings when the library is open, and leaves when the bus is full. And it's free. Last year, it left from the fountain in front of the Main library, but the location may be moved to the north end of Sedgewick Library. Sadly, other areas to avoid are the very isolated study carrels in the libraries, especially the ones far away from the central public areas. Also, Wreck Beach and the approaches to it are not especially safe at night. If an incident should occur, report it as soon as possible. Officially, these things are supposed to be reported to Continued on page 80 13 BE /! per cent, and a freeze on academic salaries and hiring. The freeze means that departments with excellent staff are losing them to other univerisities, and unable to replace them. This directly affects the reputation of your degree, and subsequently your prospects, and mobility. Also, in these times of restraint, Deans must look for cost-cutting measures. If you were planning on entering for example, the Special Education Program, or the Licentiate in'. Accounting program, you're out of luck. And we don't know what programs that will happen to this year. Another political issue of concern to students is student aid funding. The Canada Student Loan Program is federally funded; the provincial government in the past funded a grant program that made up almost half of the student aid package, which was first reduced, and then eliminated, to be replaced by a provincial loan. Finally, there's the question of what the provincial government does with the federal contribution to education funding. This year, although the federal HMMlmStuff actual funding to the B.C. universities was decreased. The guidelines for this exchange are contained in the EPF (Established Programs Financing) and the interpretation of EPF is a very political issue. Where does this leave us, the students? People assume that once a government has been elected, the electorate has lost control until the next, time. This is only true in a limited sense; politicians are conscious of trends that may influence their re-election, and try to make decisions with those trends in How to before it's too late F^j 1 ^l 1 .

Obviously, in our media age, this involves a certain amount of opinion polling, but politicians can also be reached by more mundane means — such as a letter. Since politicians don't receive all that much mail, several letters on a subject indicate to them a widespread concern — a person motivated enough to write a letter probably represents several people who are motivated enough to vote. And politicians in some ridings often win by margins of a few hundred votes — and a sizeable handful of letters would cause such a politican some concern. And if even half of UBC's 30,000 students were to write letters, we would certainly affect public policy.

Our work takes I l_iplace at three different levels: we write letters on behalf 11 of cases we receive through the Urgent Action network. 3 These appeals are addressed to heads of government, ^diplomatic representatives and other official bodies. Am- Einesty International claims that in 50 per cent of all cases 3 these letters will contribute to the release of prisoners of ~ conscience or to the betterment of their conditions. We I also focus on human rights education on campus through -booths, films, speakers and by taking part in discussions 9 and human rights oriented events. The third job of the campus group is the maintenance of the above activities —through various fundraising activities. 4 Our office is in 230D on the second floor of the Student n building. It is open weekdays during lunch hours. Anarchist Club Many people ask us whether it's consistent for anarchists to form a club or a party. Why? We have parties ill the time.

Our world needs change. Lawlessness, out- — r- ward rebellion, moral and spiritual decay are the order of ~~ i ~ the day. War after war rocks our planet. Experts are pessimistic on everything from food to fuel. The plight of the individual is more distressing. Man's greatest need is to love and be loved. Society is failing miserably in this as the family disintegrates and loneliness and despair are We don't want you to despair. There is hope. In fact, the only hope and solution for the problems of our world and the individuals in this world is found in a person — the Saviour Jesus Christ. The Bible says, "If any man is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come." When Christ comes into one's life, a positive transformation begins. : I One changed life may affect society a little, but as Christ changes great numbers of people, our whole society will '■ a be positively affected.

My name is Sylvia Gajdics and I am the —eaident of the Physical _Jucation Undergrad Society this year. Many students are unaware that enrolment in Physical Education automatically includes membership in PEUS. This is an important organization that strives to strengthen student-faculty relationships, promote student cohesiveness and to develop and promote our professional philosophy throughout the university. Numerous activities held throughout the year help us to achieve these important goals. This year's schedule of events look better than ever; —beer gardens, dances and festive eggnog and rum at Christmas time. All new students are encouraged to attend our orientation session in early September and a wine and cheese party at the end of September, where they will have the opportunity to personally meet the PEUS executive and learn about the up and coming SAHPER conference. This is the Western Canadian Student Association of Physical Education and Recreation's annually held conference where UBC will be the host this year providing you with the opportunity to hear some of the most respected Physical Educators and Recreators across Canada. Yes, exciting things are happening this year in PE and that^ because we have extra-ordinary people enrolled in PE. Unfortunately, PEUS has not had the pleasure of meeting all these special people, but we would love to. If you have any problems, enquiries or suggestions do not hesitate to call me at 228-6175, or better yet drop in and see us in. Room 301 in the War Memorial Gym.

Delegates attend conferences to discuss urban issues which affect one's environmental awareness. They are also closely in touch with CAPS, the Canadian Association of Planning Students, so that students know where to get information concerning policies, and data on agricultural land reserves, uranium resources, regional planning programs and neighborhood organizations. Membership in this group runs from 60 to 70 planning students. The PSA can be contacted through the AMS, SUB 238. ^Recreation j The Recreation Undergraduate Society has planned an exciting year.

Let's hear from you and welcome to social work! • INSIDE UBC ( Y<?W ) By CHRIS WONG They're everywhere. On your student card, on signs in the Student Union Building, on posters advertising rock concerts, and plastered all over your student rag, The Ubyssey. You can't escape them. The first, thirteenth and nineteenth letters of the alphabet — AMS. What do these letters mean? Perhaps AMS is an acronym for a campus organization, such as "Airheads for Meat Sauce" or the "Asinine Moron Society." Maybe in Pango Pango. But at UBC, the AMS stands for your Alma Mater Society — a body made up of students and run by students. Any student enrolled at UBC automatically becomes a member of the AMS. It is the organization that coordinates, funds and gives direction to clubs, constituencies and special projects such as renovations to SUB or construction of a new daycare centre. A large staff is needed to run its everyday operations ranging from management of the various facilities in SUB to volunteer committee work. At the helm is a five member executive elected by the students. While they are responsible for ensuring the service and business aspects of the AMS are run smoothly, they also provide political representation for UBC students. To achieve this monumental task, they must endure long hours, biting criticism from the student press and some even adopt the 10 year plan for obtaining then- degrees. While the executive members chose to become involved with managing AMS affairs because of their concerns for students (we hope), they have different approaches and attitudes towards holding office and the role of the AMS in university life. Just who are these brave souls who have taken on the task of i huge student society you ? Read on. —*—am**' Margaret Copping "I think government should be human. Any government that is not, is not fulfilling its function." — Margaret Copping, Alma Mater Society President and one-time philosophy student. Just like the ancient Greek philosopher Plato who used analogies to explain his views on politics and society, Copping refers to the AMS as a "community." Inside the community are a series of little communities. All benefit from services subsidized by the business 26 Low's main job is serving as a liason between the AMS and the undergraduate societies. "As vice- president I assist them in any way possible and also serve as a sounding board to make sure they're following their constitutions to best benefit students," he Communication is an essential element of his job. Because the AMS is a "living organism, the undergrad societies have to be informed on at least a weekly basis of events that effect them. And in turn, input is needed from the students — something he says is sadly lacking. But Low says this communication breakdown is not always the fault of the students. "If students feel something, they should say it. The experts are not always right. "I would like to try to develop an understanding with students that they should play a major role on this campus and that their ideas and opinions are very important. Rather than rubber-stamping a lot of decisions because of the so-called expert's presentation, to be able to question decisions would be my greatest goal to achieve in this university." Low says student involvement is especially needed in the fight against (Mater) education cutbacks. He says every student should be an ambassador for UBC, educating the public on the importance of post-secondary education. In order for A well-developed media presentation . is needed to beat the "brief-case cowboys" who are in control of university funding, he says. James Hollis mm^^**~ James Hollis uses words like "fiscal" and "expenditure". He probably sees numbers floating around his morning coffee, and he no doubt has permanent video terminal eye strain. Hollis is in his third year as the Alma Mater Society director of finance — a job that only makes sense to someone familiar with complicated world of dollars and cents. Your AMS is not your average student society. Hollis says about $6 million dollars flow in and out of the society's accounts. And AMS profits from its business operations have leaped 170 per cent over the past three years. Although it's not quite in the ballpark of Fortune Magazine's top 500 com- V -<i (Society) panies, the AMS is undoubtedly a thriving business operation. But Hollis claims it wasn't always that way. It was run un- professionally at one point until new staff were brought in like general manager Charles Redden. Where does Hollis fit in? "I'm responsible for writing the society's budget, coordinating accounts, and managing the financial affairs of the society," he says. Hollis says the majority of the growth has been with business operations such as the Copy Centre, the Games Room, and the two student drinking establishments. Adjusting the .numbers to ensure students are better off is probably the main aspect of his job. Much of the number-crunching goes on in budget committee where "the legitimacy of expenditures" is examined by a seven member committee. Hollis still manages to maintain a jolly disposition despite many years of battling in the trenches of student politics. "I enjoy doing it. I have a real sense of accomplishment." But he adds, his ultimate goal is to leave the society in better shape than he found it. That is if he leaves. Glenna Chestnutt mmm^m" Behind any operation, is someone who handles the purely administrative duties such as assigning room numbers or sending out notices to clubs. Glenna Chestnutt handles such duties as the Alma Mater Society director of Ad- Wants * ier job anything but boring or mundane. "It's an interesting job. When you start getting bogged down with work, something good comes around," says the ever cheerful Chestnutt. As well as overseeing the day to day operations of SUB, Chestnutt chairs the student administrative commission, and sits on the art gallery, aquatic centre and Whistler cabin management committees. Chestnutt is working on several special projects including a student questionaire to be published in October and improving handicapped access to SUB. She says the political aspects of the AMS are not the focus of her efforts. "I'm more concerned about the students and making their stay more enjoyable. But 111 do what I can about the political stuff." Free from the duties of a high-profile politician (i.e.,kissing babies and making speeches), she has time to coordinate clubs. Chestnutt notes that many new clubs have formed bringing the total number up to about 170 including clubs ranging from the Pseudo-Intellectual students society to the Curling club. Chestnutt must somehow find office space for some of these clubs in SUB — a task that will grow less complicated as SUB expansion is completed. While there is an apparent interest in forming clubs at UBC, she admits there is still some student apathy. "There's a bit of student apathy, but if they knew what there was available, I think they'd get involved. People can be very miserable and lonely if they're not involved." • 27 In November, 1982, a fee referendum was held to determine support for the creation of a capital projects fund. The referendum passed with 75 per cent of the record 8,838 students voting in favour of adding $20 per student per year to the Alma Mater Society fees. CPAC (Capital Projects Acquisition Committee) receives $15 with $3 going to intramurals and $2 to AMS activities. Students ranked the specific projects in the following order: A. Housing — development of on- campus student housing. B. Daycare — replacement of old daycare facilities. C. Recreation facilities — racquet courts, fieldhouse, improvements to Maclnnis Field. D. Student Union Building renovations — development of the space between SUB and the Aquatic Centre to provide club offices and facilities, bookable space, and student-run services. E. Parking — construction of a revenue-generating parkade west of Gage residence. F. Whistler Cabin — purchase of the lot upon which the cabin sits. G. Barn — renovations to provide bookable space, workshops and a small neighborhood pub. As intimated earlier, the mandate of « is to provide physical fa- tional club spaces, two more large bookable spaces, new quarters for the intramural program administration, a typing and word processing centre, and a new student-run restaurant. The Whistler Cabin property has been purchased, thus securing it for the use of the UBC community. It is hoped more students will take advantage of the cabin both in winter and in summer months. In the wonderful world of housing, ways and means of providing on-campus RfxreatioiCeitre duties for UBC-ites. This mandate is consistent with the historical role that students have played in helping to develop the campus. Since the construction of a Women's Gymnasium in 1928, the list of facilities students have provided or contributed towards has steadily grown to include buildings such as Brock Hall (1939), War Memorial Gym (1948), Thunderbird Winter Sports Centre (1963, 1969), and SUB (1968, 1972, 1984). In today's dollars, if is estimated that students have over the years, contributed funds totalling in excess of $25 million. Not bad, eh? By the time you read this, the SUB Plaza renovations will be well under way. As a result of these r students will soon have at student housing have been investigated. This is one of the most difficult projects for the students' society to become successfully involved in, so if you have any good ideas, please let us know. Plans for new daycare facilities have been commissioned from an architectural firm, and we expect a concrete proposal to be hammered out in the Fall. Following that, final drawings, financing and construction are the subsequent steps to be taken. A detailed proposal for recreation facilities in the vicinity of SUB is currently being developed by a UBC architecture student. It is hoped that a decision can be made on the direction of this project by Fall. Upon investigation, it was found that the development of a parkade in SUB lot (west of Gage residence) was not an appropriate project for students to undertake at this time. The B-Lot bam renovation proposal has undergone considerable scrutiny to date and has been subject to many changes as a result. Current plans include cleaning up the surrounding area and providing for some landscaping. Although considerable effort has been expended on the projects to date, there is still much work to be done. We are all students on this committee, wanting the best for students. All are welcome to attend and be involved. For further information, contact the CPAC chair unit by leaving a message with Terry Jackson in SUB 238. —Mark Varley, CPAC member. • ■HBBI Volunteer opportunities have expanded greatly in the past few years. Today many types of interesting and challenging volunteer placements are available to complement academic, career and per- Students, in particular, are motivated to seek volunteer positions for various reasons. For instance, most university students are worried about getting a job after finishing their education because of their lack of experience. Volunteer jobs provide employment experience and present a student with a reference for future job applications. University life can cause a great deal of tension and volunteering is an excellent way to relieve this tension by focusing on something other than your studies. Volunteer Connections, a student group working out of the Student Counselling and Resources Centre, was formed this year to provide UBC students with interesting and challenging volunteer placements. They specialize in filling requests related to career goals and interests of UBC students. Volunteer Connections is an on- campus branch of the Vancouver Volunteer Centre and is an AMS student service club. The interviewers have contacts with hundreds of agencies throughout the Lower Mainland.

At The Ubyssey, there is a whole language (English,or at least a variation of it) to be employed. Words, words and more words are now waiting in the Oxford English Dictionary, eager to be jumbled around someone's head, lovingly etched into copypaper, and electronically spewed from a typesetting machine. This process is slightly more plicated in practice and although some have argued after reading the paper that the staff has the combined brainpower ol one teaspoon of Dingo brains, tests have shown this to be entirely false. In fact, the staff at The Ubyssey has a combined brain power in excess of three teaspoons. This accounts for the quality of The Ubyssey. Writing for a newspaper, and especially a student paper involves much more than just brute intelligence, and recent staffs have proved this.

Welcome to CITR, UBC's student run radio station, located at FM 102 on your radio dial. Actually, we play a lot more than just punk rock. CITR provides the Lower Mainland with the best in music, news and public affairs, and serves as the campus' chief access to electronic mass media. CITR also puts out a monthly magazine, Discorder, with a distribution of 15,000, which serves as our pro gram guide. We need students to help run all aspects of the radio station, such as news and sportscasting, conducting interviews, editing public affairs, and of course, spinning | the hippest tunes in the land. Discorder needs writers, editors, interviewers and layout and ad people. CITR has been around in one form or another since 1937, existing originally as a regular weekly feature on CJOR, CBC and then CKWX. Alumni from this time include Pierre Berton and Lester Sinclair. Starting in 1942, the UBC Radio Society (or RADSOC) produced additional programs for CKMO, CBR, CJOR, CKWX and CBC. Familiar names from this time include Dr. Gordon Shrum (Honorary President of RADSOC) and Ray Perrault (the actual president). RADSOC found its own pi AM dial in 1947 and hasn't stopped since. We changed our name to CYVR in 1969 and to CITR in 1975, when we went cable FM. A few names you may recognize from this time period include Richard Saxton, Tom Harrison, Sorelle Saidman and Ellie O'Day. The radio station began broadcasting on the FM airwaves in 1981, and CITR will be going high power FM (Gosh! just like CFOX) within the year. Mn addition to playing the best and newest in alternative music, CITR offers its listeners news and sportscasts with a focus on campus events. We broadcast UBC Thunderbirds football, hockey and basketball home games, and most of the football away games. We air public affairs shows daily, presenting an alternative perspective to the key issues of the day.

Nora Von Gerichten looks like an artist. She has paint all over her. Paint- splattered brown pants, a paint- splattered shirt, even paint on her sweater. She has big, black gloves on her hands. Her shortish brown hair is slightly ruffled, and she's very busy. That's not surprising — she's working in the UBC printmaking hut, a dingy building near compu geography, thanks Employment grant. She is a recent Fine Arte graduate' is a member of a small but vibrant o munity of student artists at UBC - studying for their bachelors or masters i fine arts. Students in the program take combination of academic and studio ai courses. The r their art, despite the exorbitant monetary expenses and uncertain job prospects for art students. Von Gerichten's preferred medium is painting but she is also a skilled print- maker who has been accepted into UBC's printmaking graduate program. "I have to make 15 of these exactly the same. It takes a lot of skill and a lot of practice," she says about the prints she is I I making for associate fine arts professor . Barb Sungur who is displaying a show this fall. "In fine arts the professors don't have . to publish. They have to have excellent shows, exhibits, things written about them, that sort of stuff," Von Gerichten The fine arts department is very small. There are eight faculty members teaching studio art. In these independent studio courses, the department' gives . students more independence than many UBC programs, she says. "It's an independent study program considerably different from biology or something which is a very structured program." Von Gerichten has sold some of her art, including three watercolours to the Bank of London. But she has no illusions of riches for the artist. "It's certainly nothing that, without great deprivation, one can build a future on," she says of art. She earned less on her YEP grant than she would have accepting welfare for her and her child. - all "Nearly everybody (in the bachelor of i in fine arts program) either goes on to grad school, takes a year off, or becomes a secretary or a postman," she says with a Studying art can be an expensive venture. At UBC, students must pay for y4fr their own supplies plus laboratory fees averaging $45 for studio courses, plus tuition. Supplies usually cost $150 for a three-unit course, Von Gerichten says. She finishes applying the ink to the copper plate, which has a detailed pattern on it. The medium is called intaglio. Her movements are quick and sure — she is very much at ease with her work. She brushes the ink off very carefully and it remains in the pattern. The plate is placed on a large printing press, with damp paper over it. As Von Gerichten selects a piece of paper to transfer the pattern onto, she gives a tour of the acid bath room. This is where specially treated metal plates are placed in acid to eat the metal away according to an artist's design. Back at the press, she rolls the print through by cranking a lever round and "This is only the tenth time I've done this today." Laughing, she says she'll develop big arm muscles doing this work. She examines the print and is pleased. "So that's how you make a copper Prospective fine arts students must take fine arts 181 and three units of art history before applying to the department by Mar. 31, says fine arts secretary Lorna Llwellyn-Hunt. Only 30 students are admitted each year to the hounours program, and take increasing numbers of studio art courses, as well as electives. A former fine arts student herself, Llwellyn-Hunt enthusiastically recommends the three studio art courses open The student-run Alma Mater Society art gallery in SUB will show more student art this year, a gallery organizer promises. "This year we'd like to keep the gallery full all the time," says Glenna Chestnutt art gallery committee chair and director of administration. Chestnutt says student art will not be shown only for a few weeks when the AMS and university collections are put on display. "It's required that students in fourth year fine arts show their work and this is a good place to show it," says Chestnutt enthusiastically. She promises "some really unusual things this year" ranging from paintings and sculptures to prints The gallery should be more accessible to students this year because of longer hours, she says. It will be open at least one night per week, Chestnutt adds. She admits in the past the gallery has had a fundamental problem — obscurity. "A lot of people don't know it exists," Chestnutt concedes. But she says the organizers are committed to publicizing the gallery. And the committee is looking for more viewers for the half million dollar AMS collection. "The AMS collection may also go out on other shows in other galleries to get better known," Glenna says. The committee is sending letters to other galleries. The gallery itself has had a makeover.

Chestnutt says very little is refused. "The committee is just excellent this year," she boasts. If optimism is an indicator of success, the AMS art gallery should be a major improvement this year. you anything, at least in B.C.," she says emphatically. Llwellyn-Hunt says the expenses of the program are seen as necessities by most student artists. "Think of it this way," she says intensely, leaning forward in her chair. "All the people out there doing the Bachelor of Fine Arts are doing it because they really want to do it."

(Or at least the Georgia Straight.) Perhaps the subtleties of plot, subplot and climax are not up your alley. Well, you may be a jock. Have no fear, The Ubyssey has an activity for you — Sports writing!!! That's right — a whole page of the paper is usually dedicated once a week to those odd individuals who enjoy romping around on muddy fields actually exercising their bodies. And finally, as the term "newspaper" coyly suggests, newswriting plays an important role at your friendly neighbourhood rag. The image of reporters as arrogant foul smelling creatures with a press card stuck in their hats is terribly outdated, and it would be unfortunate to scare people off by allowing this awful picture to remain in then- heads. Have no fear — The Ubyssey staff wash regularly and do not wear hate. Newswriting, which is the backbone of any paper worth reading before lining the old birdcage, is essentially reading background information, listening to what people have told you, and writing it down on paper before you have the chance to forget what you have heard. This sounds easy, but the trick is writing what you have heard in a way that keeps you out of the libel courts. There is no end to the possible news stories. Why, those people down the hall that run the AMS, are the source of at least one or two weekly scandals. With professors prodding small fury animals with electric prods to see their reaction to pain, and student politicians up to their usual tricks, Ubyssey reporters are hardly ever bored. But there is more to the paper than just writing. We need photographers, book reviewers, graphic artists and especially groupies. Basically, we need you. The training is free, the people are friendly, and if you hang around long enough you too can learn the true meaning of "agent of social change." And remember, the paper gave John Turner, Les Bewley, Pierre Berton, Muriel Draaisma and a host of others their start. You too can join this illustrious alumni. You may not end up ruling the nation or rewriting Canadian history, but you can at least boast of writing for the best and vilest rag west of —Gordon Clark, a Ubyssey dingo brain who found the office on his fourth'try. • THERE'S NO BODY "RX> GOOD FOR THE KINGS KOSlNE CREATIVE FOODS ARE OUB SPECIALTY APPETIZERS FOR SMAQINjr..

It's high time to As I head off to pick up the latest entertainment calendar, I spot someone postering for a show. I have a closer look and come to the conclusion that this show is just what I need. Not only is the show cheap enough with the student discount, but the gig is also on campus — at the SUB ballroom as a matter of fact. It's cheap, easy to get to, and the poster says I can get my ticket at school. "Tickets available at AMS Box Office and usual outlets ... an AMS Concerts production." AMS ... those letters must stand for my student society; why else would they be on my student card? Anyways, if students are in on this show, I'd like to check out this AMS Concerts front for myself. Next day I go to SUB for my ticket and more info on the gig. I buy my ticket at the box office counter and when I ask about AMS Concerts, I am directed upstairs to room 230A and told to lookout for one Bruce Paisley, the AMS programs co-ordinator. Finding the office is simple enough, and so is talking to Paisley. Programs attempts to find acts and speakers that students want to see, he says, adding that the shows are often completely produced at UBC and special advance sales are offered for students. "At our weekly meetings, we look at all the available acts and shows coming by in the next few months. The only way I can choose the ones to take in is through student input. "If a club at UBC asks me to bring a certain show or act, then 111 check it out for them. If the people at the meetings know that a given show will draw lots of INSIDE UBC students, then 111 look into that one, too," he says. Other considerations for booking an act are the general appeal to non- students, radio play, record sales, previous appearances, media coverage and local interest, says Paisley, an old rock and roller himself. "I can't afford to waste students' money. The best way to know how to spend it on them is to get them involved in how it's spent," he adds. And bands catering to all student tastes have appeared at UBC as AMS Concerts productions. Linton Kwesi Johnson, D.O.A., The Violent Femmes, Billy Idol and The Animals are a few of these groups. He could talk my ear off for another hour, but I have to scoot. 'If you're interested, Programs meets every Tuesday Continued on page 44 From page 43 at 5:30 p.m. right here, okay?" Paisley reminds me. WELL, FINALLY IT'S showtime. The night of the concert has arrived and I am partially excited about the show and partially anxious about ID at the bar. I go in by the north end of SUB and find out from some fairly hefty students that the way in is at the south end. I am not about to argue the point, so I go around to the proper door and wait in line. No sooner does the show get going when some people start jumping on stage. It's not long before another bunch of oversized students comes to chuck the unruly fans off. Tough luck for them. The rest of the concert goes on as scheduled without hassle. After the show I see a friend carting some beer down a hallway. She asks if I enjoyed the show, and tells me that Bruce Paisley had said I was nosing around his office one day. "You want to know more, right? Just let me finish my load here." She returns and we continue our chat. I mention some of the "students" looked a bit large and mean at the show. "Yeah, well, sometimes we have to order out if the bands wants extra. Between 10 and 20 people handle peacekeeping duties, and also make sure no one goes where they're not supposed to," she says. She explains that staff at concerts are divided between Programs members and AMS club members hired for the show. What do Programs people do? They get the occasional freebie, but the work involved is substantial. "Programs staff put up posters on and off campus and Bruce takes out ad space where necessary. Programs people also handle ticket sales at the door, the guest list, stamping hands, the coat check, and bar duties. Depending on how big the venue is, there's about six of us at every gig. We can't all volunteer for every show, and we can't work all through the night, so we do shifts." I noticed that if I don't get moving soon, I will be sleeping in the foyer until the buses start running again. I thank my friend for the info and start out the doors. I began thinking of who I will meet backstage one day, and seeing all the good gigs. All in all, getting a good break from school, pitching in so we can all have a good break. Just scribble down that time and place — half past five, Tuesday afternoon, SUB 230A. I can't forget it now. Maybe it's not as much fun as group sex, but it beats the laundry anytime.

She suggests students bus it to school or walk to avoid paying Patrol supervisor Terry O'Brennan says the patrol officers are not evil creatures who sit waiting to catch their unsuspecting victims.

Driving is restricted on University Boulevard between the old bus loop and West Mall, and on Main Mall between Sedgewick library and Agronomy Road.

Drivers caught in these areas will receive a fine of $25. Violations for parking in illegal zones J will cost you $10. But wait, if you really want to shell out some cash, after your third unpaid ticket your car will be towed, with the total cost of tickets and towing reaching about S55. Parking stickers can be purchased for B-lot at minimal cost. If you don't feel like making the daily hike from B-Lot, you can purchase a more expensive preferred parking sticker for A, L or C Lot if you are in third year or above. Students should register for these lots in April to ensure they can acquire a spot, O'Brennan says. • October Homecoming Week From October 15 to 19, students will have a chance to take part in Homecoming week. The purpose of the week is to increase student awareness of their role in the university, to emphasize the influence students can have on government, and to encourage future involvement of students in the community. Through the week, various activities reflect the theme of student involvement and how it has made a difference in the development of the university in the past.

WWMMM^ Stories by MONTE STEWART With few exceptions, the UBC Thunderbirds have gained a reputation for excellence. Last year, two UBC teams won national championships while several others won conference and tournament championships. The women's field hockey team recorded its second consecutive national crown, becoming the first field hockey squad to register back to back championships. The men's ski team won its first ever national title. However, there was one rather ominous aspect about their victory. You see, they captured the U.S. title by winning the National Conference Ski Association final at the thriving metropolis of Boulder Springs, Colorado. Like the men, the women's ski team won the regional finals. The men's volleyball team fell just short of recording a second straight Canadian title by losing to Manitoba in the finals. However, the volley 'Birds did win the Canada West crown and Paul Thiessen was selected as UBC's male athlete of the year. Cathy Bultitude, captain of the women's basketball team, earned female athlete of the year honours while other athletes also gained individual recognition. Jody Blaxland, who scored the winning goal in the women's field hockey team's 2-1 victory over the University of Toronto in the championship game, was named CIAU athlete of the week last September. Simon Hoogerwerf set two indoor track and field records. f.ki^/3 The intramural sports program at UBC is one of the finest in Canada. Boasting such events as the annual "Storm the Wall" competition and the Arts 20 relay race, this university offers an expansive intramural program in team sports as well as individual competitions. Continued on page 48 INSIDE UBC URALS All students are welcome to compete in the sport — or sports — of their choice. Varsity athletes may not compete in their sport but they are eligible for any others. In the past two years, approximately 20,000 students have participated in the intramural program, making it one of the largest in Canada. With such team sports as hockey, basketball, football, and soccer to choose from, students can sign up with their faculty, fraternity, or social organization. Sign-up sheets are usually visible in the areas that you frequent. Individually, students may partake in the various running events which occur on a regular basis. The intramural program allows the serious athlete and the recreational combatant to compete. There are several levels of competition which are in accordance with the players' skill level or personal preference. Hence, if you consider yourself to be a top notch athlete or someone who is just out to have a good time, the intramural program has something to offer you. For further information, enquire at the intramurals office at Room 203 in War Memorial Gym. For results and up to date standings, listen to the Intramural Report on CITR FM 102 (Cable 100). • 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 UBC WINTER SPORTS CENTRE 6066 THUNDERBIRD BLVD. (next to Osborne Gyms) From page 47 Other clubs, like the football and. hockey teams, had good seasons as well. The grid 'Birds — UBC's most famous team — finished second in the Western Intercollegiate Football League while the hockey 'Birds missed the play-offs in the highly competitive Canada West league. There are 35 varsity teams in all — 19 for men and 16 for women. Most teams have junior varsity clubs from which to draw talent when the need arises. Most varsity athletes receive B.C. government scholarships - which cover tuition and books. Try-outs for all teams, except football which has already commenced league play, take place throughout September. If you miss the try-outs, contact the coach or attend a practice. If you do not want to compete for a varsity team, become a fan. Despite the ongoing excellence of the UBC varsity athletic program, virtually every team lacks fan support. This season, UBC is hosting two Canadian university championships including the CI AU women's field hockey championship Nov. 1-4, and the CIAU men's and women's gymnastics championship March 1-2. Remember, admission to all regular season athletic events is free upon presentation of your AMS card (excluding special events and the Shrum Bowl). For team information, students can call 228-2503 for men's sports, 228-2295 for women's sports and 228-2531 for general information.

Edmonton • Vancouver I In search of books I By TOM HAWTHORN Truth struck with a cold, hard slap some seven Septembers ago. At the check-out counter of the old, pre-expansion UBC Bookstore, a fellow student from Geography 101 was forking over a double sawbuck and a fin for the required text, something like the sixth annually revised edition of Our Friend Dirt. I wasn't about to part with $25 worth of groceries from my hard-earned student loan for one lousy 400-page book. Only an all-day sucker would cough up those kind of bucks to line the nests of a couple of comfortably tenured Yankee profs. I decided to scram from the scam. cursory (and compulsory) thumbing through. But what I did end up learning about geography came from an unrecom- mended little gem I found on my own with a title something like Ten Little Drumlins. That's the one true joy of university: finding fascinating books to devour like so much cold pizza. So, friend, make yourself a barley sandwich, stick your legs up and stop panicking about the' new semester. Picture yourself trying to match the hole that ten-spot is burning in your pocket with the gaping hole in your library. Here's where to fill it. There are a dozen fine book stores 'j\^^^^^^^\ Hil .^j^^Pr 'w^ *^1&S^ faf%^ My $25 was safe now, but I still needed a copy of Our Friend Dirt. I checked the phonebook for Books-Secondhand. Listed first was A-Aaabaca Book City at 1247 Granville, where on the second floor in the science section was a third annually revised edition of Our Friend Dirt for only $3.50! Sure, I spent a good eight months trying to match up pages with the newer text — as far as I can tell, a revised edition means they've changed the page numbers around — but at least I knew I hadn't been taken in by a blatant ripoff. Have you ever read a textbook? Didja enjoy it? Me neither. Even my bargain copy of Our Friend Dirt received only a 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 stares (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, Duthie's will INSIDE UBC have it. To check if they have a ticular title on hand at the u 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 you know.) 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 term. Roll up your sleeves and wade in. The cranky people of the Book Mantel have set up shop at the bottom of the big hill at 2553 Alma. 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. Just around the corner at 3712 West Tenth is Ashley Offill's store, Ashley's Better Used Books. (One can imagine the problems of naming an antiquarian store Offill Used Books.) If you're waiting for a bus to campus at Tenth and Alma, you may as well browse, for at least three buses jammed to the rafters are going to cruise by without stopping. Continuing along Broadway on the not-so express, go past fast food heaven (McTaco's and McDonald's) to the stop in front of Super Valu. Hop off, cross the street and head east to 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 tomes. Once at West Coast, we may as well keep walking. Four blocks further east is the appropriately cat-infested Kitsilano Books, 2887 W. Broadway, a dusty home to thousands of ill-treated books and magazines, many priced too high. Nonetheless, there are a few treats and you get the pleasure of digging them out. If your name is, or once was, something like Tangerine Starflakes, then the New Age beckons at Banyen Books, 2685 W. Broadway, where you can, like, find books on consciousness, metaphysics, tarot, yoga, massage, childbirt, esoteric philosophy (as oppos- ■ ed to the other kind), earth wisdom and planetary transformation. Energy spheres guaranteed left uncrowded. We're almost at McDonald now, but befor we walk the five blocks north to Continued on page 66 From page 66 West Fourth, let's zip to a couple of missed stores along Dunbar. 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, including a swell collection of the incomparable Dell line, as well as Westerns, mysteries, romance and original paperback literature. Collectors is off the beaten track and that's the kind of place to find something dear to the heart. Way down Dunbar, past the theatre, past Stong's, in the world of large, single detached homes is Lawrence Books, 5579 Dunbar, which specializes in used military, history and British Col- hundreds of new and used comic titles. Lots o' good yucks to be had. Killers of orks can find dragons and assorted dangers in the dungeon. And . . . ah, we could do this all day. Perhaps the city's best general interest used and antiquarian book store is MacLeod's Books, 455 W. Pender. MacLeod's is in its' third incarnation following last year's heart-breaking fire at its Hastings Street location, which turned long, tall rows of books (several of which I'd had personal, albeit covetous, relations) into black crisps. Chef Bell — The Cookbook Man is across the street and upstairs at 434 W. Pender. Down the block is Terry Rutherford, Bookseller, 420 W. Pender, home to mysteries, science fiction, some pulps and general fiction. Back across the street at the corner of Books for. women are the mainstay of two stores huddled near Fourth and MacDonald. Peregrine Books, 2950 W. 4th, has many children's books and titles on child care, as well as extensive women's studies titles, while comfortable Ariel Books, 2766 W. 4th, carries books on feminist theory, assertiveness and violence within the family. Go east and up the big hill, past all the sweaty bodies at Ron Zelko (run by the land of people who write more books than they've read, which is to say two), continue on past the Lazy Gourmet, and when you come to 2250 W. 4th, you will be at Octopus Books. 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. Further down the block at 2206 W. 4th is Blackberry Books, a trendy, neonized place attuned to the West Fourth of the narcissistic Seventies. Blackberry is full of calendars, bumf and other high-priced ephemera, and is more a guilty gift buying centre than a real book store. Another branch is at 1663 Duranleau on Granville Island, which, I humbly submit, speaks volumes. Caped crusaders of various vintage fight the doers of evil daily throughout the Comicshop, 2089 W. 4th, home to 66 USED BOOK \ STORE M The Alma Mater Society Used Bookstore is once again in operation for the students who want to buy and sell their beloved textbooks. AMS bookstore workers will take books in for resale up to Sept. 14 in SUB 119. Hours are 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., Mon.-Fri., and 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., Mon.-Thurs. Students can set their own resale prices for the books. Books will be sold in SUB 125 from Sept. 10-24. Hours for bookselling are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday, and 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., Mon.-Thurs. Using a code system, workers will be able to keep track of all sales. Unclaimed books and cheques for books sold can be picked up from Sept. 26-Oct. 5, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Mon.-Fri., and 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., Mon.-Thurs. AMS president Margaret Copping says the volume of books sold this year will be about twice as much as last year. Copping adds the store is especially useful for finding required texts such as English 100 books. "It's a really convenient way for students to sell their books and buy them. And it saves students the trouble of putting up notices." INSIDE UBC Homer is Fahrenheit 451, 353 W. Pender, with its stock of architecture and art books and magazines. A few more steps east and we're at A. J. Ainsworth Booksellers, 321 W. Pender, a dark and musty place with surprises. Cheap paperbacks are displayed on a table outside. Right next door and up the stairs is Mclntyre's Books, 319 W. Pender. A bit to the north in Gastown are two excellent antiquarian stores: Colophon Books, 407 W. Cordova, for Canadiana, literature and natural history, and William Hoffer, Bookseller, 58-60 Powell St., for literary first editions and other fine books. William Hoffer, bookseller, is a true character, but one suspects he suffers fools not at all. You have been warned. While you're around the Strip, visit the Vancouver Women's Bookstore and Centre and its new location at 315 Cambie St. A good way to spend an hour downtown is to buy a magazine at the Women's Bookstore (recommended: Kim nipeg s Herizons or if you read French, Quebec's stunningly successful La Vie en Rose), then take about ten giant steps to the Triangle Restaurant. Raise your consciousness over a bagel and cream One block south on Hastings, upstairs at 311 actually, is the Spartacus Educational Society, a not-for-profit alternative bookstore staffed by volunteers. Its locations, odd name, and general other-worldliness can make it an uneasy visit, but it most certainly is worth a browse. Has a particularly notable selec- tin of anarchist titles and magazines. Whew. My feet are sore, my pockets empty and my arms throb from carrying these fershlinger books around and still I j haven't had a chance to tell you about the joyishly bookish trappings of Ahrens Book Store, 756 Davie, just around the corner from the unwieldly book towers of A-Aaabaca Book City, 1257 Granville, or of the remaindered titles and magazines selection at Manhattan Books and Magazines, 1089 Robson at Thurlow, or of the midnight madness of the Mall Book Bazaar, 850 Granville Mall, or of the cut-rate remaindered selection and free coffee at the Book Warehouse (called the Book Whorehouse by some in the trade) at 632 W. Broadway, between Cambie and Heather. Nor have 1 told you about People's Co-op Books, 1391 Commercial Drive in the heart of the Red Belt, where commie books come cheap, or about the cheapie reference books at the bottom of the stacks at The Bookstall, tucked behind the Marine Drive McDonald's at 1425 Clyde in West Vancouver.

Hal's, with its selection of functional, inexpensive furniture, caters to poor students. There are chairs from fi dollar fro $20, desk/dressers from $40 and single beds from $40. The only problem with Hal's is that it's probably closing in October to become part of Recollection. Recollection, at 2507 West Broadway, has plenty of oak chairs from $25, but not much else in the way of furniture. This may change when Hal's closes. •re at 2930 West 4th (there was no n the door, but it's next to Black Swan records) has some interesting fur- l tacky chesterfield and chair could run you as little as $45 and a filing cabinet (sans one file drawer) could cost is little as ten.

Broadway, has a good selection ranging from the functional to the ultra-tacky. Imagine, if you will, a bar with fake zebra fur on it or chairs with grey hair. Wonderfully ugly. With two floors, it's large enough to have a fair bit of furniture on display at any given time. Another option is the Salvation Army. There are Sally Ann thrift stores at 3310 Dunbar and 2845 W. Broadway. The Broadway store has the better selection of the two — plenty of interesting furniture, lamps etc. — and the prices are about the same as the second hand It's important t mber with all these stores that their ii stantly changing.

Futons are portable sleeping they're cheap, reasonably comfortable 1 From page 67 I about six, tugging on his mom's skirt chanting — "Hey mommy, hey mommy, I see something you should buy." Some of the tables are run by professionals but for the most part, the sellers are people trying to get rid of their old wedding gifts. Prices are often superb (i.e, a lamp could cost as little as $1.50) and remember, one person's garbage can make another's living room. With this philosophy in mind you could also keep an eye on the Buy and Sell, and of course, there are always garage sales. Another alternative is to "do it yourself." If you're mechanically illiterate, 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" book case 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 apiece. 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."

Most of the futon stores are fairly close to UBC, (How can anything trendy not be within a stone's throw of Kitsilano?) but a lot of them aren't in the Yellow Pages so here's a short listing. • Seventh Heaven, 1642 W. Broadway, $94 for a single. • Futon to Sleep On, 2173 W. 4th, $95 for a futon kit (if you want to make it yourself) and $24 for labour (if you don't). Total price for a single is $119. • Western Futon & Fabrics, 4388 W. 10th, $70 for a kit plus $20 for labour. Total price for a single (this service is provided for those of you in arts) $90. • Dream Futon (which has no address but advertises itself on campus through handbills) sells singles for $74. Their phone number is 254-7832. A word of warning about futons, as they are made of natural materials they need to breathe or else they get mouldy. This is why most futon stores will also try to sell you a frame. The frames generally cost as much, if not more than the mattress.

Yes, you've just had a wonderful meal; yes, there is no tax on clothing and fashions, some from Montreal. But do you remember the good things when a badly-handled turn at a corner lands you squarely on the left side of your posterior, bringing you cheek to concrete with the pavement? • Winnipeg, Manitoba. This is a civilized city, with an auspicious cultural centre. So why is it that if you arrive here on an early Sunday morning, cold and hungry, you're out of luck: there are no cafes open, and the Winnipeg Sun makes The Province seem like a pulitzer prize- winning newspaper. By air, rail, but not bus, winter travel makes sense. This is a time when travel discounts are plenty, even if you do not book ahead, and hotels offer reasonable rates. So why wait for summer, when what you need after the gruelling Christmas exams is a well-deserved vacation break? First things first, though: and that means common sense decisions and planning. Start at least a month before the departure date. You can arrange your holiday through agencies like Canadian University Travel Services (CUTS, in SUB). But it is also adviseable to make A guide to cheap travel to and from the hippest places around inquiries yourself: don't rely on agencies to offer the best rates. Also check out the bulletin boards in SUB and across campus for students selling cheap tickets for various Canadian destinations. If you're tempted to take the train, VIA Rail, to more than one Eastern destination — say, any place east of Winnipeg — discard the thought immediately. VIA's system-wide pass, usually the best way to see the country, is not in effect during the peak winter travels. The best deals are offered by the airlines; and CP Air and Air Canada have youth fare that offer 50 per cent off usual rates — for students 21 and under. Under this discount, a one-way trip to Toronto this fall and winter is about $175, return $350. Once you choose a central location — perhaps Toronto — do not restrict From page 69 yourself; visit other cities such as Montreal and Halifax, as well. Consider using that location as a central point to leave excess baggage for a pick-up later on your return to Vancouver. But we're getting ahead of ourselves. What to pack? The absolute minimum, with room to spare in the backpack or medium-sized suitcase, or perhaps both. Start by considering what you want — and half that; now you have what you need. A large wool or leather coat is a must; so are leather boots or shoes for formal as well as informal wear. If you wear contact lenses or glasses, take an extra pair or a recent prescription. Also pack a few books and a small radio or Walkman, all of which are in- dispensible at times. Take a journal as well, for recording the trip. If you're undecided about your destinations, pay a necessary visit to the bookstores and the library to look at travel guides; a good guide is Fodor's Budget Canada, about $10. This 250-page book offers worthwhile pointers about Canadian provinces and cities. It also makes clear that if you intend to travel between nearby cities—Toronto to Montreal, for example — taking the train is the best bet. Despite the prohibitive cost of taking the train between long distances, short-distance train travel can work out in your favor. For example, the seven-hour night trip to Montreal from Toronto will save you the cost of a hotel room as well get you to your destination. Toronto is a natural stopover, as well as a good place to use as a central stopover; Montreal is accessible from here, as is New York. While in Toronto, stay close to the university/Chinatown areas for inexpensive meals as well as temporary accommodation. The YMCA on College Street is a bargain at $20 a night; meals should cost no more than $10 a day. Student rates at the theatre and museums make^this an ideal centre for enjoying the arts. At some repetory cinema, the bills change every night. Rely on the excellent subway and tender heels to get you around the city and the ethnic splendor of Bloor Street. You haven't lived until you've spooned Haagen- Dasz ice cream on a clear winter night in the village. While Toronto has it share of stores for shopping, Montreal is the fashion capital; even the department stores carry eye-opening clothes. St. Catherines is the street to be on for this excursion. Other stopovers: McGill University, the Olympic Village, and Old Montreal. Some of the Montreal fashions can be found in Halifax, which must be the friendliest big city in Canada. Skip the Y, and stay at the Carleton on Argyle Street. The street-level pub here is a natural place to strike up conversations (and more) with the natives. Everything is within walking distance in this city. As for meals, buy groceries and stock up for at least two meals a day because of relatively high prices at restaurants. But a fine place to eat is The Silver Spoon, near the Carleton, which serves the most memorable spicy wine soup.

Points west of Winnipeg (and points east of Montreal) seem like a fast forward blur when you're travelling on the train. Western bound, the most exciting spectacle is the Rocky Mountains, so a train ride from Edmonton or Calgary to Vancouver is a must. Enjoy a stopover in Banff, if possible. A word of caution: trips to the U.S. can be risky — primarily because of the current exorbitant exchange rate. But it's still possible to spend a couple of days in New York City, for example, without losing your plaid shirt. The best way to go from Toronto is via Buffalo, N.Y., with Peoples' Express, the el cheapo airline, to Newark, New Jersey. A shuttle to New York City from Newark takes 20 minutes.

The board is responsible for the management, administration and control over the properties, revenue, and business affairs of the university. This means that the board approves budgets for operating and capital expenditures, tuition fees, salaries, and other subsidiary services such as student awards, housing, food services and counselling. In addition, the board appoints the president, vice-president, deans, and members of the teaching staff, and has the power to set enrolment restrictions on admissions to the university and to individual programs. Finally, although senate has the responsibility of approving programs, academic policies, course changes and requirements, the board must approve all senate motions before they become effective. As such, board serves as the final check and balance in all university af- Except in unique student board members i voting power. However, the student reps can be effective in transmitting information to board regarding student issues and student viewpoints, and in making students and student groups aware of issues at the board level that concern By being persistent and well prepared, student board representatives often have the chance to affect policy in its formative stages. However, the effectiveness of your representative is directly ' proportional to the support that you give them as a concerned student body. If you experience problems with tuition fees, student aid, housing, services, programs or anything else, you should bring them to the attention of your representatives. If you wish to make or resist a policy change, you should be prepared to write letters to the board expressing your views. There are several issues upcoming this year that will be of direct concern to UBC students. Firstly, the operating budget may be cut again by five per cent. This will mean tremendous pressure on the administration to raise tuition fees again next year. Also, faculties and departments will be under pressure to cut programs and lay off staff. Finally, many extra-curricular activities and services may be cut. The time to be informed, involved and to express your concern is now before these decisions are made. The board representatives live in the Alma Mater Society executive offices and they can be reached at 228-6101 or through AMS executive secretary Terry Jackson at 228-3971 at If'y you have not yet become the victim of,*\ a program elimination, course cancella-'j$ tion, lousy prof or an increased class size, '•'.> jUSt keep Waiting, yOU Will.

There has been a great deal of information written about birth control that is . often confusing and difficult for individuals to understand in relation to their personal feelings and attitudes and their individual needs and wants. Each method provides advantages and disadvantages that should be fully considered when one chooses a method of contraception that will be the most effective and comfortable for their particular lifestyle. Before choosing any one method, an individual or couple should obtain enough information to make an informed choice. The following is a brief outline of birth control methods aimed at providing a basic understanding of what each method is about. There are other resources available which can provide more comprehensive information. The resources can be found at Student Health Services, Planned Parenthood, your local drugstore (written material), the Women's Health Collective, the Preventative Medicine Centre and Serena B.C. (fertility awareness). There are three basic methods of contraception: oral contraceptives (the Pill and the mini-pill), barrier methods, such as the condom, foam, diaphragm, cervical cap and various spermicidal preparations, which work by creating a barrier to prevent the sperm from reaching the egg, and some also by killing the sperm. Lastly, there is the I.U.D. which doens't fit into either group, and no one is too sure how it works. THE CONDOM The condom, which is the only effec- I five method of birth control available to men, is presently enjoying a new surge in popularity. A recent MacLean's article reported that 45 to 55 percent of Canadian couples now use the condom, either I exclusively, or in combination with another device. It is usually made of latex, (hence "rubber"), but there are I also condoms made of sheep's intestines available, which are popularly considered to be better because they transmit heat. How It Is Used The condom is placed over the erect penis before any penile-vaginal contact. Unless a brand with a resevoir tip is used a half inch space should be left at the end of the condom, in order to hold the semen. Lubricated condoms are available, but if the condom is not lubricated never use vasiline, as it causes deterioration of the rubber. Instead use saliva, or spermicidal foam or jelly. The penis should be withdrawn after ejaculation, making sure the top is firmly held in order to prevent slippage or leakage. Advantages: 1. Fairly cheap, easy to use, readily available. 2. It gives some protection against venereal diseases. iramx 3. If the man tends to ejaculate quickly, it reduces the sensation somewhat, so intercourse may be prolonged. Disadvantages: 1. Requires an interruption of sex, as it must be put on at the time of entry. Some people feel that this causes a loss of spontaneity, but many couples get around this by incorporating the use of the condom into foreplay. 2. The condom decreases sensation for the man. Some brands are better, though. 3. A condom can break or leak if not used properly. It can also deteriorate if it is old or has been kept in a warm place — like a wallet or a vending machine. FOAM AND VAGINAL SPERMICIDES What They Are INSIDE UBC These are preparations which are inserted into the vagina shortly before intercourse and work by killing the sperm. Most have fairly low effectiveness rates — foam is the best. But foam combined with a condom is nearly as effective as the Pill, 98 percent plus. The nice thing about this combination is that it allows joint responsibility for contraception, which shows that each partner is willing to pull her/his own weight, rather than callously dump the responsibility on one party. How It Is Used Foam must be inserted into the vagina no more than fifteen minutes before intercourse. Care should be taken to shake the foam vigorously and its applicator should be inserted as deeply into the vagina as it can go. With each act of intercourse another application of foam is necessary. Foam must be left in the vagina for 6 to 8 hours after intercourse. Advantages: 1. Readily available at drugstores, easy 2. Has no physiological side effects, although some women might be allergic to a specific brand. 3. Foam is useful in preventing V.D. and vaginal infections. 4. Foam is a very effective method of contraception, when used together with a condom. Disadvantages: 1. Using foam can be an interruption of sex, unless it is a part of foreplay. Foam must be used each and every time a couple has sex. 2. Foam often leaves women feeling a little drippy, and some people find it to allergic to the sper- be "messy." 3. Women can micide. DIAPHRAGM What It Is The diaphragm is a soft rubber dome- shaped cup which is filled with a spermicidal agent and worn over the cervix. It, like the condom, is also enjoying renewed popularity. The diaphragm is a safe method of contraception that is as effective as you want to make it. There is a fairly large margin for error, but two recent studies, involving hundreds of women, young and old, married and single, illustrated that the diaphragm is a very effective method, with effec- tivenessrares of up to 99 per cent plus. XCo"tinuedonpag9^jf\ ^^t^r^r^^^r^^^^^r^^^^r^f^^^r^ AY ' ' ' 'Fmmpage'83 How It Is Used The diaphragm should be smeared with spermicidal cream or jelly and inserted no more than two hours before intercourse. Once the user has some practice the technique (which is easy to learn) is no more difficult than inserting a tampon, and takes only a couple of minutes. The diaphragm must be left in place for 6 to 8 hours after intercourse. If intercourse is repeated during this time more cream or jelly must be inserted. Remember — the diaphragm by itself is not an effective method of contraception — it works by holding the spermicide in the proper place. Advantages: 1. No side effects. The diaphragm and spermicide is even a recommended medical treatment for DES daughters, who have much higher rates of cervical and vaginal cancers. 2. Very effective, if used with spermicide and if used concistently. 3. Can be fitted at a health clinic. Well- recommended is the Vancouver Women's Health Collective and Planned Parenthood. 4. The use of the spermicidal agent reduces the risk of V.D. and vaginal infections. Disadvantages: 1. The diaphragm must be inserted before intercourse. Some people feel this interferes with spontaneity, but the insertion of the diaphragm can be: a) incorporated as part of foreplay, b) routinely inserted every evening, c) inserted up to two hours before in- 2. More spermicide must be inserted with every repeat act of intercourse. 3. The diaphragm may be dislodged, perticularly in the female superior position. CERVICAL CAP Although widely used in Europe, the cervical cap is new in North America. The reason for the absence of this device is attributed to its low profitability, as it requires little spermicide and lasts longer than a diaphragm. Cervical caps, which are smaller than diaphragms, are made of plastic or rubber, and fit snugly over the cervix. The remain in place by suction. The big advantage of the cap is that it can remain in place, for up to five days and does not need repeated applications of a cream or jelly. It is placed in half and hour before intercourse and must be left in eight hours after the last intercourse. How It Is Used Insertion of the cap is similar to that of the diaphragm — it is a skill that must be properly taught by competent people. [ Advantage) 1. Can be left in place for long periods of time, allowing for spontaneity " 2. Women who cannot wear diaphragms can often successfully be fitted with 3. The slight pressure that the cap exerts on the cervix enhances some women's pleasure. Disadvantages: 1. Some women cannot use caps, either because of an extremely long/short or otherwise abnormal cervix, or because their vaginas are to long or their fingers too short for easy insertion and removal. 2. The cap is not recommended for women with cervical erosion. The effect of the tight fit of the cap on the cervix is unknown. However, it is thought to be insignificant if the n good health and does not leave the cap on for lengthy periods of 3. Caps are available only at limited places: the Preventative Health Clinic at 10th and Alma fits them, and they are very helpful and thorough. A complete list of practitioners who fit caps can be obtained by phoning Planned Parenthood. INTRAUTERINE DEVICE The I.U.D. is. a small plastic device impregnated with hormones or wrapped in copper which is inserted by a doctor into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. They are usually shaped in a T or F or coiled. No one is quite sure how the I.U.D. works. Most researchers believe that the I.U.D. causes a constant inflam- INSIDEUBC inhospitable to a fertilized . Thus, the I.U.D. does not prevent nception; it makes implantation of the g virtually (but not completely) im- rpossible. How It Is Used An I.U.D. must be inserted by a doctor. The insertion can be painful, and often causes cramps for a while afterwards. The user must routinely check the strings after insertion, as I.U.D.'s have a tendency to be spontaneously ex- Advantages 1. Does not involve an interruption of sex, and provides continuous protec- 2. Can act as an effective "morning after" method of birth control if it is inserted within five days after unprotected intercourse. Disadvantages 1. The I.U.D. seems to promote pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). I.U.D. users experience a 3 to 9 times higher incidence of PID than women who do not use the I.U.D. PID is a serious condition. The chances of PID in I.U.D. users increases with the number of sexual partners. 2. The I.U.D. aids the spread of infection as it provides a string for infection to enter the uterus. 3. I.U.D.s have a tendency to be spontaneously expelled. The expulsion rate is 4 to 19 per cent. 4. The I.U.D. can cause a longer, heavier menstrual flow, as well as worse cramping. 5. The I.U.D. can perforate the uterine walls, causing PID and often the need for surgery. 6. The I.U.D. can cause spotting be- 7. I.U.D.s work best in women who have already had children because they can tolerate larger sizes. (The larger the I.U.D., the more effective THE PILL The Pill, and its close relation the I mini-pill, work by suppressing the wo- I man's natural hormonal cycle and I creating an artificial one which prevents maturation of an egg follicle, so ovulation does not take place. The pills (which I are taken daily) are composed of varying 1 levels of progesterone and/or estrogen. I The user simply has to take a pill daily 1 for continuous protection against preg- 1 Advantages. 1.

A good I source is Serena B.C., which has a Surrey office (596-9812). Advantage 1. Completely safe, free of any side ef- Disadvantages 1. Requires a high degree of motivi 2. Requires constant record-keeping. 3. The couple must regularly abstain from intercourse. Maureen Boyd co-authored a manual for the B.C. Teachers Federation on teenage women's health and sexuality in 1981. The manualis entitled The Arts Book. The information here is compiled from research done for that project. (The information was recently revised.) » Disadvantages The Pill is a chemical that does not just affect the reproductive system — its effects are felt throughout the whole body. Over 50 metabolic changes have been recorded in Pill users, and the Pill was recently described in a U.S. Senate inquiry as "a potent modifier of biological function." It must always be remembered that the Pills affects each and every cell in the body in a multitude of ways. Side Effects 1. Weight gain. 2. Breakthrough bleeding. 3. Nausea. 4. Cloasma — dark patches of skin, usually on the face. 5. Headaches — women with migraines should not take the Pill. the e r becau responsible or too lazy to do anything else, you should really think about the •validity of those reasons . . . THE METHODS FERTILITY AWARENESS What It Is Fertility awareness, also known as "the rhythm method" or "natural family planning," involves following the menstrual cycle in order to determine the fertile (or unsafe) days. When using this- method the couple must abandon the notion of "spontaneous sex" because a long period of abstinence is required.
