CFS launches membership campaign at UBC By ROBERT BEYNON

The Canadian Federation of Students is working hard to pass the membership referendum a t UBC this November, an organizer said Thursday.

Duncan Stewart, a student council arts representative, said CFS is officially striking a commit- tee to begin a pro-CFS membership drive at UBC Wednesday.

“CFS isn’t behind in its cam- paign,” Stewart said.

He said CFS had to waste energy organizing people and working with student council before beginning a n official campaign aimed at the stu- dent body.

“We (the new committee) will be starting a massive publicity blitz Oct. 10 which will utilize posters. pamphlets, speakers, forlums, CITR and The Ubyssey,” Stewart said.

A major delay in CFS’s original plan was student council’s unwill- ingness to take a stand on whether

LBC students should join CFS, he said.

CFS originally thought council would make a decision in August, he said. “But now it looks like they will make no decision at all,’’ he ad- ded.

U.S. government’s support for Nicaraguan contras who regularly attack villages inside Nicaragua,

there. MacMichael said the situation is

Despite these contentions sur- rounding the AMS’ budget pro- cedure council spent only part of one session discussing the issue.

Finance director Hollis 9 aid the budget committee must design the

money, which means expenditures on Whistler are justified and large expenditures on the AMS’ external affairs department are not.

But in a time of serious cutbacks students’ money may get the best return in an active lobby in the pro- vincial legislature. Hollis said these are matters of personal taste.

But the AMS has ignored serious- ly discussing these matters of taste. They are in a hurry to keep the AMS operating and to get that

budget to get the most return~for its budget out.

MacMichael said he is bound by the secrecy act not to reveal state secrets, and his entire preseniation is passed by the C.I.A.

“I have an excellent attorney to help me stay out of jail,” he added.

MacMichael has come under at- tack from a number of people in- cluding Ronald Reagan. Secretary of State George Shulz said “he must be living in some other world.” MacMichael said he is not concerned by such criticism, adding the U.S. government must prove his analysis is incorrect.

~ Remrt’s anti-union bias attacked By PATTI FLATHER

The DreCi2crlt of UBC’s teaching assistants union attacked as anti- union a new report which says TAs will unionize more in the future.

Horacio de la Cueva said Thurs- day education dean Daniel Birch’s c o a u t h o r e d r e p o r t e n t i t l e d “Teaching Assistant Unionization: Origins and Implications” con- tributes to the administration’s at- tempts to weaken the TAU.

“The report perceives TA unionization as a problem that should be solved and not necessarily in a friendly way,” Cueva charged.

“They (the authors) complained a lot that labor laws in Canada are too lenient in allowing TA unions to be formed,” Cueva said.

One part of the report, which recently appeared in the Canadian Journal of Higher Education, says T A union negotiators have made demands consistent with “a radical student world view.” Examples given were “autonomy and academic freedom in T A duties, Protection against discrimination, retribution and harassment for po l i t i ca l , soc i a l and s exua l reasons.”

Cueva said he is angry Birch con- siders these demands radical.

Cueva also said the report, coauthored with Simon Fraser Univers i ty p rofessor Rober t Rogow, gives ideas for busting T A

unions. The report says TA unions would have more problems if anti- union TAs mobilized more.

UBC’s TA union is five years old and has yet to go on strike. The TAU is open shop with more than half its TAs belonging to the union, Cueva said.

Birch was unavailable for com- ment.

Cueva said the report’s anti- union tendencies are part of an overall university attempt to break TAU communications channels and weaken the union.

The TAU lost the right to compel attendance at orientation meetings in last year’s contract in exchange for “a mutually agreeable informa- tion letter that should have gone out with the registration package,” Cueva said.

But the TAU and the administra- tion failed to agree on the letter’s content so the dispute will go to ar- bitration Nov. 8. “There has been no means of communication bet- ween the TA union and the TAs,” Cueva said.

The TAU’S contract expired Aug. 31 but UBC Employee Rela- tions officer Pat Brown said a com- mittee has been struck. She added she did not know when proposals will be ready.

She said the union knows why its letter was rejected and refused to expand.

Jobs need filling Many work-study positions have

not yet been filled, UBC’s awards director said Thursday.

Byron Hender said interested students should go to the campus employment centre and see the re- maining jobs posted there. He add- ed he could not say exactly how many of the 600 jobs remained.

“But i f we go beyond our present $6OO,OOO budget (to finance the jobs) the UBC administration said we may be able to get more money yet,” Henders said. He said in previous years the work-study pro- gram has always gone over budget.

The program creates on campus jobs for students, with a maximum loan who need more money.

Hender said this year the max- imum allocation receiveable by a student has increased from $2,000

to $2,500 and now out of province students requiring more money are also eligible for the UBC program.

He added the awards office is late processing work-study forms because they have more jobs this year than last year. “There are 200 m o r e w o r k - s t u d y p o s i t i o n s although the provincial government cut the program this year,” Henders said.

The provincial government cut $100,000 from its allocation to the program but UBC has increased its contribution by $500,000. Work- study therefore had a budget of close to $600,000.

Work-study organizer Sheila Summers said she was so busy pro- cessing work-study forms she could not take time to discuss how many people the program has accepted.

The UGC allocates government grants to Britain’s universities and colleges.

The report said academic plann- ing has been disrupted, morale has been impaired, thousands have been denied access to university and confidence in the government has been shaken.

The UGC report added univer- s1.ties require a five million pound ($8.2 million Canadian) funding in- crease to update laboratory equip- ment that have become obsolete.

Further cuts would result in the closure of a t least one university, the report said.

But British education secretary Keith Joseph earlier said further cuts to the university budget cannot be ruled out.

In the last three years Joseph’s m i n i s t r y r e d u c e d s t u d e n t pl.acements in Britain by 20,000 at a time when demand for higher education reached record levels, the Guardian said.

Britain’s post-secondary system is largely controlled by the national government which sets student

quotas. Another organization, the Na-

tional Advisory Body for Local Authority Higher Education, said the level of polytechnic and college enrolment should not be allowed to fall below current levels, the Guar- dian reported.

UBC education professor Murray Elliot, who recently studied at Cam- bridge, said morale there was poor. Elliot added teachers wages in Bri- tain are very depressed. But he said he could not draw similarities bet- ween Britain’s post-secondary education situation and B.C.’s.

Student's lefts The concept of student rights has come a long way since the 196O's,

Unfortunately the concept has not come far enough. Student rights are often pushed aside as irrelevant, or not solicited for the sake of expedien- cy. Student autonomy over their affairs is seen by many as an impractical dream to cast aside for efficiency's sake.

when students fought long and hard for a say in their education.

Recent examples of this trend are happening at UBC and at other Cana- dian universities. UBC housing's new rules banning parties Sunday to Thursday were imposed with little consultation with students, then perfected over the summer when few students are around. Housing claim- ed most students support the stricter rules but gave no proof this is SO amidst strong evidence to the contrary.

Another close-to-home gem is found in education dean Daniel Birch's report on TA organization. He brands union demands as "radical". They ask for autonomy and academic freedom, and for protection from discrimination, retribution, and political, sexual, or social harassment. These demands are not radical - one wonders if Birch opposes these rights because they come from mere students, or in principle.

Other recent cases abound which are depressing. Student journalists were denied press accreditation to see the Pope and also to Alexander Haig's speech to the Young Socreds. Obviously the right of the Pope and the Socreds to censor the media is valued by the powers that be more than student rights to freedom of information via alternative student press. And let's not pretend the commercial press is not biased.

Perhaps more alarming for the students of one small Quebec CEGEp is the installation of cameras checking on vandalism - read - spying on students. Students were not asked how they might feel about being spied on, that was apparently unimportant. After all the only reason the CEGEp is there, ultimately, is for the students. Of course the students don't like it and no one quite knows who approved the camera purchases but that doesn't matter since students wield less power, and might makes right.

Also disturbing was the reaction of the university of Toronto's arts and sciences dean after students occupied his office protesting the quality of education. He met with the students, which was very nice, but, as he left he made it clear nobody would change his views in half an hour.

Well, maybe that's understandable. How long would it take students to influence UBC's board of governors

to change their fiscal minds on tuition fee increases? Ten thousand peti- tions later? And counting.

Students can no longer assume their rights to a say in their own educa- tion will be considered. They must demand to be heard, and demand loud.

U of T protests low funding TORONTO (CUP) - Students

who staged a dramatic 24-hour oc- cupation of the arts and science dean’s office at the University of Toronto last week in protest of underfunding are pleased with their efforts.

“ W e w o r k e d f r o m t h e grassroots, and we raised con- sciousness,” said Ava Szczurko, one of the spokespeople for the 25 occupiers. “We told people that the education system is in crisis.”

Fiona Keith, another spokesper- son for the students, said the “spontaneous” action brought together many students who had never publicly demonstrated their concerns about post-secondary ac- tion.

“This was the first time any of us had taken part in an action of this kind,” Keith said.

The students, carrying banners and marching through hallways in the arts and science building before reaching the dean’s office, began the occupation at noon Sept. 20 and stayed through the night until noon the next day. A sign saying “Oc-

cupied” was posted outside the of- fice.

Whi le g roups of s tudents negotiated with arts and science dean Robin Armstrong about their demands, students in the building and all over campus distributed leaflets and collected more than 3 0 0 signatures on a petition supporting the action.

“Underfunding, a problem for a decade, has now produced a crisis in education in Ontario,” said a statement released by the occupiers. “Classes are overcrowded and qualified students are being denied access to courses they need in order to complete their requirements.”

The students demanded the arts and sciences dean admit the faculty is severely underfunded and that the measures taken to alleviate the pro- blem undermine students’ right to a

cluded balloting, a sign-up process where students get the courses they want on a first-come, first-serve basis, limited enrolment in certain programs and the redistribution of funds from one financially strapped department to another.

They also wanted the dean to ex- tend the deadline for enrolment in arts and science courses, which he later did.

After two negotiating sessions, dean Armstrong acknowledged that some attempts by the faculty to cope with underfunding are “band- aid measures.” But he quickly add- ed that they do not in any way im- pede a student’s education.

Emerging from his office after the sessions, he said: “We don’t really have any different viewpoints (than before). My mind is not changed in half an hour conversa-

quality education. The measures in- tion with everyone.”

The Thunderbird football team has obtained receiving help for the remaining portion of the 1984 Western Intercollegiate Football League season.

Tom Vlasic has registered at UBC after a brief stint at the University of Wyoming. The Notre Dame graduate was considered t o be the best college prospect in 1984. But. much to the chagrin of several B.C. football mentors, he opted to head stateside.

The Wyoming club wanted to red sirt Vlasic this season, a process whereby a player practices with the team but does not play any regular season games. With the loss of receivers Bob Skemp and Bruce Rainer for the balance of the seson and Rob Ros for the time being, Vlasic will see action this Saturday when the 'Birds host the University of Saskatchewan Huskies in an afternoon contest.

S u n s h i n e a n d b l u e s k i e s tournament to prepare her team for highlighted a weekend of field this weekend's Canada West tour- hockey action as the UBC women's nament in Calgary.

cond in the tournament.

Although Doves dominated play in the first half, scoring both of their goals, UBC fought back and played a strong second half, creating several scoring chances-. But the 'Birds were unable to put the ball in the net.

Coach Wilson said she was disap- pointed with the loss but not with her team. "I think the team played . . . better than I thought they would. They're a very young team and they have a lot of growing to do," said Wilson.

The UBC coach used the weekend play to refine the technical aspects of the 'Birds' game. Even though the UBC team is hosting this year's CIAU Championships in November and is guaranteed a berth in the play-offs, Wilson and the team are working extremely hard at being seeded first in the West.

The University of Victoria is the main competition in the Canada West league. The Vikettes will be vying for a first place finish. A strong rivalry has developed bet- ween UBC and UVic and as a

result, sports fans can witness top- quality play whenever these two teams meet.
