en&on -no Last week it looked as though there wo”~dd be a final agreement on binding arbitration in the dispute between the Canadian Association of University Teachers and the Board of Governors of Renison College over the firings of Profs. Hugh Miller and Jeffrey Forest. T-his week negotiations continue and no one is’willing - to make any comment. Anticipation that a final decision would be made stemmed from letters read at the arts faculty council

Feb. Il. The letters were from UW president Burt Matthews and the CAUT, and asked the council to defer any discussion on Renison until the two sides had had a final opportunity to come to some agreement. Also, local CAUT rep Prof. Mike McDonald to&d the chevron last week that CAUT would have to get an assurance ttiat Renison was serious about having an academic arbitrate on the academic issues. He added that if Renison did not agree to that then

settlerhent /

CAUT would cease negotiations and release a public statement on the progress rn-ade and why negotiat ions broke down. Up to that point Renison’s opinion had been that they would not be able to get a fair hearing from an academic and were only concerned with the legal issues of the two case?. The “last ditch”’ meezing has come and gone and negotiations continue. What was agreed at that meeting no one will say. But it

Task force shims NUS OTTAWA (CUP)-The national Union- of Students (N-US) was refused entrance to the meeting of the federal-provincial task force on student aid here on Feb. 13. NUS had sent a letter requesting an opportunity to address the meeting to speak in favour of seating student delegates on the task force. Hilda Creswick, research secretary for NUS, made it no further than the ground floor of the confers ence centre where the tas$ force was meeting. - She met briefly with task-force co-chairman R.J-. Lachappelle and G.M. Davies, together with Robin Skuce of the department of secretary of state. They informed her that the task .force, set up early last fall to review and recdmmend broad changes in student aid for future years, did not . have the authority to seat students as members. -Any decision on whether stu.dentS could sit as members, they said, would have to be made by the Council of Educatiofi Ministers. The council, which consists of educatiqn ministers from each province, has a standing policy of not al)owing for “professional group” representation on sub-comtiittees. According to the task force chairman, students are a professional group. They suggest NUS

set?d a written request to the Council about student representation. The two co-chairmen and Skuce stated that they-saw a need for student input into student aid policy changes, but were less emphatic about actual participation on the task force.

“I think it would be foolish for the federal government to implement any ichanges in student aid without a good deal of discussion with students”, said Skuce. “We are intending at the appropriate time to consult students”, said Lachappelle, adding that NUS would at least have the chance to present a brief on the task force recommendat ions after they are formulated. He also said that secretary of state Hugh Faulkner, is prepared to meet with NUS about student aid if NUS wants a meeting. Hilda Creswick later said, the meeting “wasn’t very encouraging,” but added that NUS would take the adviqe of the co-chairmen. She said NUS would send a letter immediately to the Council asking that students be seated on the task force, “because that’s where the real changes in student iid will come from.” She also intends to ask that the Council make available reports and records 6Fthe task force for study

by students. SFfa‘r the task force, which meets in closed sessions, keeps all records- “confidential”. Creswick feels that NUS can not make a very effective contribution to the deliberations of the task force by pre’senting a brief to the Council,-particularly when NUS is unable to know what is being discussed and decided at the meetings. Maurice Richer, the CEM secretary general, said in a telephone of interview tha t the de cision whether to seat students on the task force as either members or obserHe said the vers is “political”. NUS request will be forwarded to Council chairman -Thomas Wells, Ontario Minister of Education. According to Richer, Wells could decide to refer the Guestion to- the next CEM meetingi scheduled for Farly June, or he could contact other ministers to find out their posi$ons on student representation. The NUS campaign to get students seated on the task force has been supported by the Ontario Federation of Students and the newly formed Atlantic student federation. NUS has also requested member campuses to write to their provincial governments urging support for the seating of student representatives on the task force.

\ so .far _ -

seems that a definite decision on whether the two can agree on t’he form and substance of arbitration has not been reached. Chairman of Yhe Renison board of governors, Mr. W.T. Townshend, would only say that “after lengthy discussion each side agreed to meet again and that at that time we would each, have a proposal to make. ” “We have made progress,” he added. CAUT officer, Prof. Iirn Stevens of Guelph, said “I don’t want to make any- comment in case I jeopardise negotiations.” The n’ext -meeting between the two sides is tentatively* set for March 5. Should they then agree to go to binding arbitration Stevens

feel’s that by the time all the details are ironed otit actual arbitration would not take place until well into April. By that tim6 students will be leaving for the summer recess. Renison students, concerned about the firings, might have to leave before a-final decision is reached. It is unlikely that they would even know what details were to be considered at the arbitration since it is not CAUT policy to make such things public before the hearings. knd one such detail would be whether the terms o’f the arbitration would guaran_tee the reinstatement of the two professors should the final de- , cision favour their case. -neil docherty

OSAP: no raise in loan ceilingOTTAWA (C-UP)-The Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) said Feb. 12 that the Ontario Student Aljsistance Programme will not raise loan ceilings next year. They also say that the Ontario government will recommend to the treasury board that living allowances go-up from the present $32-a week and that lessened parental contributions be required next

said Carolyn Kendrick, an OFS researcher. Speculation remains that the Conservative government doesn’t w,ant to alienate the student population more than it already has, as it will probably be holding a provincial election this year. However, if they are re-elected they could raise the loan ceilings. + s “The whole programme totally ignores al! the issues we and other students across the province have OFS says they were told that been raising”, Kendrick said. would be the proposil and plans “The whole programme is unac-’ would be outlined by Minister of ceptable.

Jock fees hiked Without student. referendum . OTTAWA (CUP)Students at Carleton University ma!y pay 60 per cent more in athletic fees next year without a referendum to approve the increase. . The fee change from the present $30 to $50 annually has been recommended by the Carleton Athletic Board, and will now, be consi. dered by the university’s Board of Governors. According to those employed in the athletics department, the fee increase is needed to avoid an estimated $110,000 deficit next year. Some of the student representatives on the athletic board have expressed the opinion that few students would support the increase if it were put to a referendum. It is claimed that there is no time for a referendum. The athletic I board, which received the budget for review two weeks ago, has to make-its recommendations to t.he Board of Governors without the delay a referendum would produce, according to one source. . At a meeting held,Feb. 7, to discuss the increase, a plan was pre’ sented by the administration which would have seen fees go from $30 to about $41, with a cost of living fee increase to be used in future years. But an alternate proposal from student representative Dave Dunn that would see the fee immediately increased for next year to $50 for students and the creation of a user-group board to review changes -needed in the programme, was accepted., The intent of the proposal, according to one source, was to accept the inevitability of a fee increase while attempting to set up a Student controlled body to see what aspects of the athletic programme need changing.

s stage‘Trot’ talk as.

The Federation of Students will bring back to campus a polrtical speaker who was banned last week by members and sympathizers of the Antilmperi~list Alliance (AIA). Tom Reid, spokesman for the International Spartacist Tendency, was prevented Feb. I 1 from finishing a speech on the “revolutionary strategy for Canada” by close to 30 followers from Al A who claimed that his sole reason for talking was to split their organization (which numbers from 30 to 50 members). They then endorsed a motion banning “Trots” from campus. But according to federation official Shane Roberts the banning of the “Trot?” was a “silly motion” as AIA doesn’t have the authority to bar people from lecturing at UW; Only the federation, which represents UW students, can deny a person or a group speaking privileges, he said. He wa,s backed Wednesday by members of the federation’s board of education who-unanimously voted to invite Reid to speak again at UW and pay up to $22 for his travel and publicity expenses. Roberts also said that the ‘“campus should nit be closed off to bolitical sects’: who want to impart th_eir views to the academic community. ’ Other board members expressed concern over AIA disrupiing Reid a second time and ways to avert such a development. Board member Assan Makavora said that the campus security should be called in to eject troublesome elements but other members were hesitant as they didn’t feel the situation warranted such action. Finally it was decided that federation officials should be present at Reid’s next talk to insure that there’s an “uninterrupted session”. However, if AIA members continue to disrupt meetings then they could “forfeit their right to York on campus”, Roberts warned. The banning of the “Trots” arose midway through Reid’s speech when AIA member Marlene Webber introduced a motion calling f&r such a measure as she affirmed that the Spartacist Tendency’s sole aim in politics was to enter groups such as AIA and “leech” off them. Webber was supported by Jeffrey Forest, also an AIA member, who added that “Trots” should be eliminate~d as they are “CIA agents” or should be booted out of Canad+,The Spartacists-consider themselves to be “true” Trotskyists-i.e. those who identify with Leon Trotsky’s harsh criticisms of the “Stalinist clique” which took over the Soviet Union after Lenin’s death. The meeting then degenerated into a fracas which was later described as “political infighting” by a participant. The “political infighting” involved AIA member John Stafford pushing the chairman of the meeting and trying t-o snatch some pamphlets from the Spartacists’ literature table. -john

The second in a series of lectures concerning International Women’s Year-was presen!ed Tuesday at the Kitchener Public Library. Waterloo alderwoman Mary Jane Mewhinney , and Lorraine Mansfield, a trustee on the Waterloo County Public School Board, were invited to speak on “Women in Politics”. Mewhinney first gaie an outline of her own history as a politician and related how she had evolved from her nursing career to her present political consciousness. She then spoke briefly about Agnes Macphail, . ‘Canada’s first female member of parliament, who saw herself as a pioneer in the male-dominated institution of political administration. After Mansfield went into a lengthy personal history attempting to \ _. present an evolution towards her present political outlook, which is con= servative in relation to Mewhinney’s. She felt that “some women libbers , lost a little grace through lack of good manners”. The ensuing discu,ssion consisted bf reasons why women aren’t involved in politics. Some felt that the society had impressed upon women ‘that it was their duty to look after the family, thus inhibiting any interests outside of the hotie. A woman’sppriorities and duties in the home would strongly determine her choice of career. The lecture was attended by about 40 women, predominantly housewives. The alidience was fairly reserved and the discussion was conducted in an orderly fashion. -diane ritza

Renison

d-ispute

Tom&r, warns senate

Senators arriving for Monday’s senate meeting were remiided of their obligation towards the “Renisofi.dispute” b-y several picketers from the college who appeared outside the senate chambers. Although the picketers did not take their protest into the senate meeting, the Renison issue was brought student-federationUP when president-and-senator Andy Telegdi rose to thank university president Burt Matthews foF his involvement in the dispute. Renison principal-, John Towler then used that opportunity to introduce and read a speech that he ob_viously had prepared in order to cout$er the demonstration that he expected in senate. . The speech- although showing signs of immaturity on the part of Towler and condescention towards senate by Towler, did succeed in alienating several senators.

_such as “under the affiliation agreement. 1 .Renison retains complete and autonomous right to manage its own internal affairs with regard to hiring, retention and promotion of faculty members. . .” and the tact that Towler proposed that a supreme court judge be brought in as a single arbitrator, indicate the level qf thinking that he is capable of. Towler then went on to state that he was not “willing to believe that, you as senators would allow yourselves to be so manipulated &motivated-iri a spirit of academic blackmail and revenge so as to penalize Renison students and faculty by ruining their college. However, you may be pressured to act in this unethical way.” Telegdi took strong exception to Towler’s statement that “the

overwhelming majority of students and faculty are happy-. . .” cduntering that it was the’role of the federation of students to represent the students and that in fact the overwhelming -majority of students were not happy with the situation at -Renison. Telegdi also strongly attacked Towler’s comments that the “Renis_on dispute” was “a matter which is neTither a legitimate COA- tern, nor within the framework of ,-reference for this body (senate)“. Telegdi argued that since it is, in fact,-a University of Waterloo degree that is being offered by Renison, it was indeed a matter of legitimate concern for senate and that it was a very important issue that senate must see resolved in t’he near future. ._ -randy

The speech also confirmed that Renison is-only concerned with the legality of the matter and is not ‘concerned with any academic or moral justification. Statements

Uganda slams cbrrespondhts /

OTTAWA (CUP)A government statement released by the Uganda High Commission here accuses foreign journalists of being spies, and threatens the safety of relatives of Ugandans abroad who say bad things about the motherland to the press. The officidl statement, bearing no date, and w.hich quotes an unidentified military spokesman, states: “It .is sad to ‘note that most of the w&em newsmen who come to Uganda in most cases to seek an interview with.His Excellency the President normally come with the intention of spying on behalf of th&r imperialist masters, especially the British.” The military spokesman said, “This must stop.” He also commented on an interview given by Mr. Wakhweya, Uganda’s former Minister of Finance, who recently fled the country. The spokes’man took issue with a statement made by Wakhweya, that Uganda had received no foreign currency payments since last Novetiber and was nearing the state of bahkruptcy. The spokesman refused the charge by asking: “How could a country like Uganda with not a single dollar in foreign currency go to the extent of ordering more than three hundred lorries at the cost of three hundred I thousand five hundred shillings each?” _ ’ As for Wakhweya, the spokesman said that he “is becoming Uganda’s enemy number one.” He. accused the former minister of having “smugg1e.d a lot of the Ugandan tax-payers money abroad” during his four year term, and said he is now “trying to coyer up his evil de.eds.” According to the release, the military spokesman made it “gategoritally clear that the relatives of such exiles will be the suffere’rs if such propaganda is not stopped.” The military spokesman ended his statement with a stem warning that “These people have ‘to pull up their socks. They have to wake up. This is the last warning to Wakhweya and his collaborators. The same last warning also goes to those ihternational newsmen who seek interviews tiith His Excellency the President of Uganda.“-

Pacifists battle army display, VANCOUVER (CUP)A v ancouver mall was ’the s&ne dfa peaceful anti-military protest last week (Feb. 3) when members of a, Canadian Armed Forces recruitment campaign set up a weapons display * Two yancouver-area citizens armed w’lth leaflets, posters, and peti-\ tions set up a table opposite to the army, anxious to state their opposition to military spending and the public display of weapons. Although the soldiers were attracting more attention, the protesters won the battle for signatur& 205 t’o 15. Leader ofthe protest, 56-year-old Claire Culhane, a veteran anti-war campaigner, said she was incensed at this kind of display. “The first thing I saw was some five-year-olds being shown how to load and unload a gun.” Culhane said the officer in charge told her he appreciated her viewpoint, but there was “nothing he could do.” The protestors had signs reading “Train useful skills, not killing” and “Canadians need houses, not guns.” Their petition read @part, “We protest military displays in public centres. We protest children being instructed in the use of military hardware.” s Major Gerry Gangtir, in charge: of recruitment for the re&ent involved, said recruitment displays are often set up in public areas‘such as shopping malls ‘and schools .

John Dean-as indeed others-is an American drama? Or was it yet John Dean was undoubtedly the also writing a book, for which he is another attempt to make univermost crucial witness in the shameless drama of Watergate, but he is no hero, he is no seer. He ‘is not innocent, he is proven to be a crook. It has cost the American public millions of dollars and months of agonizing to get some truth in this devastatingly corrupt drama. And yet who stands to “gain” by it-thanks to our colleges and universities and the mass media-the very men who were found to be guilty. If our universities truly wanted to learn and acknowledge the scholarship and perseverance and courage of our public men, they should have invited Bernstein and Woodward of Washington Post who had the courage to take this lid off the Pandora’s Box, or Professor Archibald Cox who kept drilling, till his fall, at the hard rock of decadent,.,, power or Senator Irvin or Judge Sirica who even in their old age didn’t lose faith in the most basic concepts of justice. Perhaps what the universities seek is cheap sensationalism. Not heroes but celebrities, not courage but glibness, not knowledge but frivolous amusement. And out there in the “real” world, there are all kinds of literary, publicity and secret agents -who inthe name of freedom and free-enterprise will give us suckers what they hear us say we want. Of course, people have written about their experiences in jail before: Dostoevski, Mahatma Gandhi, Jean Genet and Eldridge Cleaver. But there is something uncanny when high-class hustlers and criminals-with no political, religious or moral struggle in their acts of crime-are tacitly “honoured’: by the students, professors andthe public by such a huge sum as $3500 for moufhing off what, has already become, in thousands of pages of testimony, as public property. J Students at Guelph and Carleton might think that this was a mere simple fun, but by their action of inviting John Dean, they have helped in the shameful perpetuation of high class hustlers in our economic and public system. Could it be that cancer is growing, not only on the presidency but on our entire culture!

Philip Agee, a Latin American = specialist with theC.IA from 1956 to 1969, told about 300 people at a forum at the University of Toronto that CIA activities are directed against “groups who would.oppose U.S. capital penetration of .their countries.” CIA activities must always be seen within the c’qntext of the prev,ailing economic realities, Agee taut ioned. “‘The real argument is not with the CIA, but with the system of economic exploitation. The CIA is j.ust the, enforcing

In Brazil the CIA spent over $20 million to mtinipulate the 1962 general. election, then supported the 1964 army coup and later helped train the secret police agency which currently runs a brutal police state with many “unspeakable tortures.” After Salvador Allende almost, won the presidency of Chile in 1958, the CIA cooperated with the First National City Bank to finance the success‘ful campaign of rightist Eduardo Frei in 1964 and, of course, helped engineer the 1973 coup in which Allende was murdered.

termed “one of the most terribl’e forces of repression in the world.” “Vietnam was a higher level of the same type of repression,” Agee said, adding that the U.S. decision to co’mmit hundreds of thousands of regular troops was an admission that the CIA’s traditional covert ’ tactics were a total failure. The main factor governing U.S. policy in Vietnam is “the flexible requirement for complete solidarity in preserving approproate conditions for foreign investment by U.S. companies”, he said. Although his activities were directed almost e*ntirely at Latin America, Agee suggested the CIA is undoubte,dly active today in Canada. --““Since Cahada poses such a min/ iinal threat to U.S. economic interests”; he said, “the CIA will likely have only a monitoring function, keeping its finger on the political pulse.” He said it pays special attention to groups advocating economic nationalism and likely reports regularly to oth&r U.S. government agetlcies. Despite the aura of mystery Surrounding it, the CIA is not all powerful and can be defeated, Agee said. As one technique, he announced the formation of a grdup in Washington that will begin “a campaign of solidarity” involving progressive groups in countries where the CIA operates. “We will collect information 6n CIA agents and then forward it to national organization fighting for liberation, who will then take appropriate action to neutralize the CIA activity in their country”, he explained. Recently the group supplied’ sympathetic Mexican organizations with information concerning 37 of the 49 known CIA agents operating-in that country. The information was widely publicized in the Mexican press and, said Agee, “within two days the two top CIA . officers were withdrawn from Mexi ice.”

MONTREAL (CUP)-A drop-in centre for women at McGill University will open this week as a place for women to get together. Laurie Fox, president of the Women’s Union says the. centre will be opt% to men but “its focus will be ob women, a @ace where they. can feel important in maledominated McGill.” She said the centre’s aim is “to organize women at McGill., women in Medicine, Law agd Nursing who don’t have much contact with each other. We hope to keep in touch byinviting representatives of the different faculties to the centre.” The centre will have a library offering books. magazines and clippings that will be of interest to women. It will also direct women seeking information to resource centres in the ‘Montreal community. Consciousness-raising groups will be started and a speakers’ program is planned. Of the $8,000 given to the Women’s Union by Students’ So& iety, the centre has been allocated approximately $1,500 towards the purchase of books and magazines. Fox is looking forward to “input from women who use the centre, even.once it’s set up ,physically , as to ideas about what else is / needed.” .

It might be worth noting a couple of things. All workers are exploited to one degree or another. But office workers on the whole do not have to walk past armed guards going to and from work ‘and have a certain amount of freedom in scheduling their work on the job. The coffee break is not a blue-collar institution. It is clear that historically bosses never thought that workers would work without the severest external discipline and control. And they still don’t. In addition-, no matter what all the theoreticians of capitalism may say, workers are treated very differently from anyone else. #The Industrial Division of American Standard has a plant in Dearborn, Michigan which manufactures industrial air conditioning. The company places ads in trade journals urging employers to air condition their- facilities. The office section of the facility is air conditioned. The plant is not. The only thing that makes this situation unusual is that the company manufactures the equipment. But even that isn’t enough to get them to provide for blue-collar workers what office workers, engineers, managers, and professionals now take as a matter of course.

Human needs The reorganization, technological change .and decentralization that characterized the fifties and culminated in the depression gave way to‘new expansion which brought significant numbers of young workers into the industry. These are workers who couldnyt care less about what the union won in 1937. They are not more backward (as the union bureaucrats like to pretend) but more advanced. They are attuned to the need to change the nature of-work, to the need of human beings to find satisfaction in-what they do. It is this new and changing working class that was the basis for the new level of wildcat strikes, for a doubled rate. of absenteeism, for an increased

amount of violence in plants. It is a new working class that no conceivable contract settlement can control or immobilize. Both unions and industry are aware of their problem to some degree. “The UAW believes,” says the Free FVeSs, “that a better-trained corps of union stewards .would be better equipped to cope with these issues and with gut-plant problems, like narcotics, alcoholism, loan-sharking, weapon-packing, pilfering, and gambling.‘ ‘A bunch of armed guards isn’t t-he only-answer,’ said one committeeman. ” , After 33 years of unionism, they have suddenly discovered that armed guards are not the answer.‘To put it plainly, they have suddenly discovered that - -’ armed guards are not enough. The slowdown of automation in the sixties (a consequence of the shortage of capital) has led to a relative stabilization. That is, workers in new install-ations and in old ones -that have been reorganized have now had a few years to work out new forms of organization. The- complaints against the young workers who make up a crucial force in the factories indicate that the wildcats of the past may be replaced, or at least supplemented, by something new. The tightly knit structures of the big industrial unions leave no room for maneuvering. There is no reasonable way in which young workers can use the union constitution to overturn‘ and overhaul the union structure. The constitution is against them; the money and jobs available to union bureaucrats are against them. And if these fail, the forces of law and order of city, state and federal governments are e against them. If that were not enough, the young workersin the factories today are expressing the instinctive knowledge that even if they gainedcontrol on the unions and reformed them completely, they would still end up with unions-organizations which owe their existence to capitalist relations of production. ’ The impossibility of transforming the unions has

been argued by a number of observers. Clark Kerr has noted, without disapproval, that ‘,‘unions and corporations alike are, with very few exceptions, one-party governments .” That is the phrase usually reserved for Stalinist or fascist totalitarian- govemments. But it is not overdrawn. Paul Jacobs has documented this in the case of unions: “A study of 70 international union constitutions the formal instruments that rule a membership 0; almost 16,000,OOO workers, shows among other things that in most of these 70 unions power is generally concentrated in the hands of the international presidents, with few restraints placed upon them, that discipline may be enforced against union members with little regard for due process, and that opposition to the incumbent administration is almost impossible.” And all of this is what young workers are revolting F , against. _ That means that the course of future developments in the factories has to be sought outside the unions. Caucuses and factions will still be built and, here and there, will have temporary and minor successes. But the explosions that are still to come are likely to have the appearance of new revolutionary forms, organizations which are not simply organs of struggle but organs of control of production. They are a sign of the future.

real name of the writer.

defended Patricia Gilbert’s letter in last week’s Chevron scolds FASS, “The Peasants’ Revolt”, for being, .among other things, “blatantly sexist” and “intellectually bankrupt”. I’m writing to defend the show, since I was one of the people who wrote it, but the effort is probably unnecessary, since most of the 1400 people who saw the show didn’t suggest, by their applause, that it needed much defending. ML Gilbert misses the point of FASS if she thinks it’s a criticism to call the show cliche-ridden. Of course FASS is full of cliches and stereotypeslthat’s the whole idea. It’s not, intended to be revolutionary. art or social criticism. If FASS is any pa7titular art form (although “art” is probably too grandiose a term), it’s melodrama. The cliches of the clean-cut hero, the beautiful (but dumb) secretary, the oily wicked Grand Duke, and so O’PIwere not, and should not have been, designed- to show utopia or even liberated society; they’re a parody of society as it is (note the word p,arody , please). Ms. Gilbert complains because the show made -fun of radical peasants (students) obessed with -“chairman” vs. “chairperson”. Perhaps she didn’t notice that the show was just as merciless to, among other groups, faculty members (National Research Conspiracy grants), the government (Bill Davis and the-Big Blue Chariot) and the security department (“riding shotgun on tow-trucks”). And as for the *plot of FASS being a “myth’‘-well, what else did you expect? That’s what FASS is there for. Chris Redmond Gazette, Editor

-No reply

After he notes that both the papers and the students opposed the actions and asks the senate to assist him in suppressing the incident, how can it follow that all opposition was destroyed? I agree that it was unfortunate that the - show ended in the -way that it did. However, ideas for a different ending were not presented until Monday, February 3. It is rather late to change anything in a production during a dress rehearsal, so-we had to do the best we could with the material we had. . _ You seem to be most upset that life is treated in a light-hearted manner. “ . . .It was all in fun and we really didn’t mean to hurt anyb.ody.” (Dirty Andy, scene 19). Unfortunately, Aristophanes has repeatedly refused to write for- us, and so FASS is the best we can do with our own, meager talents. Why don’t you attend drama, or read, or study, since you obviously do not want what we can provide. / David Spence, 72035250

‘RAA-

attacked As a student at Renison College, I have come to the Arts Faculty meeting with relevant comments on the situation that has developed at Renison thus far. It has come .

Deadline

for

already accepted at least two Reni%on students graduating this year. May Isuggest that the views held by the RAA are not representative of the total Renison student body. They are especially not those which thold. Members of this Council were told at the last meeting of the Arts Faculty that the faculty hired to replace those dismissed at Renison are somewhat lacking in their qualifications or credibility. It is my contention, as well as ‘Zhe contention of many other Renison students, that the academic quality of the Renison faculty has not decreased or even remained constant: it has increased markedly . Furthermore, I as well as everyone here realize that the procedures followed by the Renison administration were questionable, albeit effective. However we have been assured that positive steps are now being taken that will ensure the following of act cepted prpcedures in the future. Because of the procedures that were followed it is easy for everyone here to empathize with the individuals involved. At the same time though the full perspective of the extenuating circumstances surrounding the dismissals must be realized. When one considers this one cannot sympathize‘with the individuals involved, as it evades the reality of the situation. In conclusion, I have come here today not to name call or back stab, but to indicate to you, the Arts Faculty Council, that a full understanding of the situation ought to be attained before any informed judgement can be made concerning the destiny of the College’s academic programme, and more importantly its students. It is unfor-

’

When I read the “Revolt” letter last week, concerning Fass, I thought I had to reply to its author who was so obviously lacking in a sense of humour. But then I began to think, why should I bother? That letter is so,ridiculous that it doesn’t deserve a reply. So here it isn’t! The Grand Duke

As a member of the FASS company, I may be prejudiced, but I would like to reply to Ms. Gilbert. Most leading roles in FASS were male parts because more men show up for audi’ tions. Inaddition, many of the women pre= fer to sing in the chorus, rather than acting in a major role. The dance in scene 8 was not designed to titillate the male members of the audience. As originally written, the wenches were to be three men dressed as women. However, when the dance was being choreographed,. ‘several women joined in and the-script was changed somewhat. If these people did not ask to be cast in the scene, neither I, nor several other members of the company were correctly informed. As for the affair at Renison; it wasnot stated that the students lost. The line was, “After they fired those tenured courtiers, the peasants got nowhere.?’ At this writing, the students-have gotten nowhere. No action censuring Renison, or reinstating the professors will be taken before the end of the school term. Dr. Pearson was well cast as the Duke of Renison and did an excellentjob. Nowhere does he state that he had destroyed all opposition: “ . . .In short, I eliminated anybody who disagreed with me. . .” (referp ring to the firings).

to my at-tention, and as well to a group of others that this body assembled here today will eventually be passing judgement on Renison Colle-ge with only a partial understanding~of the situation. Certainly there is no more qualified group to judge the destiny of the College than those directly involved. My concern in being here today is not to _ retrace the events that have occured at the College, but to attempt to bring the members of the Arts Faculty Council to an awareness that an alternate position to that of the RAA does exist, which has in the past remained silent or has been biasedly represented. Perhaps it would be best at this point to relate why we have remained silent. It has been our contention in the past that this matter is a concern which should not reflect in any way on our personal academic credibility. We therefore find it incredible that the Arts Faculty Council sits in paternal judgement with power which overrides that of the students of Renison concerning the destiny of the College. Not only this, you are tampering with my own personal future, a privilege that I am not about to relinquish to cyou. The repercussion of statements already made by this body have already been felt as far away as Ottawa, as evidenced by the memo receive&by Renison from Carleton University. It is incredible that a graduate school four hundred miles away has made such a misinformed judgement, while another graduate school of higher status just three blocks away has

tunate, and extremely selfish, that the College and its students have carried tke weight of the results of the actions of three people who fully realized these impli’cations. I earnestly ask you, the members of the Arts Faculty, consider the feelings not only of those who were dismissed, but those of concerned and serious students regarding the-future of Renison College. R.C., D.G., B.M., B.D.S.

petty d It is with utter disgust and great remorse that we write this letter. We quit! It is futile to attempt to make people aware of what is really happening at Renison College. No one is willing to come down off the bandwagon to listen. We have been beseiged in the last few months by cries for “Academic Freedom” and“ ‘freedom now” and “agree to binding arbitration’? etc. etc. . . . .This ,k Bullshit! The RAA no more fights for academic freedom than Nixon fought for peace in Viet Nam, yet many people are sucked in to beheving them. Their hypocrisy, self- _ centredness, mud-slinging-fact-twistingmisrepresentative naivete is to be deplored.

Academic freedom is being used-by certain individualsas an excuse for selfish revenge. These people do not care if the College and its academic programme are scrapped. After all, they have nothing to lose either way. Where the hell is academic freedom when a student cannot voice _ his/her concerns without. being laughed at, jeered, ridiculed and put down by fellow students and faculty who profess to cherish “academic freedom” and to defend it “to the end.” These people probably will defend whatever the hell it is they are defending till the end: the end of Renison College. -Academic freedom has been perverted by the RAA’into petty displays of immaturity and irrationality. They representa minority of shit-disturbers and “radicals looking for a cause”. Wesay piss on their claims to representation and on their demands. They are not seeking truth but attention. One must ask oneself whether the ques‘tion is one of academic freedom or one of job security. Are professors so victimized and defenseless that they must have a special set of rules and regulations protecting them over and above the law? Are they so embedded in the “Ivory Tower” culture that they can’t face the reality of being fired? One questions the credibility of those who would seek ,out and embed themselves in an intellectual world untouched by reality; those who- would hidein the halls of academia behind an intellectual guise, safe within the illusion of academic freedom. I thank the RAA and many of its supporters for the insight they have given me. Only within academic circles can such crap be tolerated (by those who are supposedly the importers of the great knowledge we need to survive and be happy “out there”). I suggest that we have been misled by those who are smooth talkers; those who do not hesitate to employ any and all tactics aimed - at inciting students irrationally for their own personal idealistic gains, and not for the student’s gain. It could only happen on a campus. “Out there” it would probably be resolved by a kick in the crotch. At least that has a tangible and lasting quality to it. It also cures your problem of “binding arbitration” better than Ex-lax. No doubt we will again be put down and ridiculed by the RAA for this expression of opinion. We don’t really care. Brian McKay

The financial crisis facing postsecondary institutions in Ontario can be reduced to the specific problem of revenue and expenditure: who pays and who benefits from the private (students’ tuition) and public (government grants) outlay for’ education in this sector of Ontario. Is it the students alone who receive all the benefits fi-om increased acade+ic and technical education (in the forni<f increased wages and salaries), or does the corporate and commercial sector of the economy share in the educational spillover (in the form of increased corporate profits?) . The preliminary work undertaken in this study, indicates that the corporate sector of the economy receives the benefits of the expansion of the post-secondary educational syStem. ’ While the entire economy underwent expansion in the 20 year time span of our study, the zjncreases were not even in all sectors.

increasing 3.2 percent absolutely have only increased6.4 percent relative to their distributive share. While profits, investment and dividend income increased 5.4 perwnt absolutely, th’eir relative share increased dramatically tb 37.5 percent. Corporate profits alone increased 3 percent absolutely and 28.3 percent relative to their dis5 tributive share. There has been much confusion about whether our economic expansion has been real or inflationary ,-and if it has been inflationary who has been causing the inflation. Chart no. 3 indicates that while wages have risen in the commercial sector 64.7 index points from 1962 to 1974, profits have risen by 111.7 index points. The manufacturing sector exhibits similar results. Wages have risen 43.2 index points while profits have risen 90.0 index points. For the same period the real domeitic product rqse by 108 index points to 208.0 as !of September 1974. The consumer price ‘index has risen by 72.2 index points and stands at 172.2 as of September. Clearly, laboui- has been increasing the level of productivity, but its share of the product in the form &f wages lags behind the real price rise and level of growth in the increased productivity. Only corporate profits have increased their share of the expanded productivity. If, by assumption, an expanding economy requires an expanded skilled technical, administrative, professional and managerial labour force, then the ,educatianal sector becomes keyed to the tempo / of economic growth. Chart no. 7 demonstrates that,the corporate, sector’s profit rise is directly correlated to the growth in the number of graduates from -post secondary institutions. Profits in this period of our-study rose by 269 percent and graduates rose

the bbvious connection that, as the real level of productivity has risen it has been in, large part as a result of the increased level of educational training of the/labour force. If the corporate sector benefits directly from education (and their profits indicate that they do) then the obvious question to ask is are -they paying their share of the educational costs in corporate taxation?

Corporate

taxes

Corporate taxes have not risen as fast as thei‘r profit levels. For the period of our stlidy (1954-1973) profits rose 418.2 percent while corporate t-axes only rose 163.6 percent. Wages and salaries rose 391.5 -percent as compared to 688.9 percent increase for personal -in&me taxes. Clearly the revenue raised from persohal income r taxes bear the brunt of educational expenditures in Canada, not corporate ‘profit ’ taxes. Corporate taxes as a -percentage of be- -fore tax profits have declined from 45.3 percent (1954). to $3;4 percent (1973). We have beers speaking’generally with respect to the relationship betwe& graduates of the post-secondary -zducational sector and the private sector of- the * economy. Specific details _should clarify the point: Who really benefits from posfsecondary? Employment statistics for 1970 and 1972, the latest available, give a fair indication of who employs graduates from the post- _ -secondary educational system. The employment pattern seems to be fairly consistent over several years: Of all graduates from colleges of applied arts and technology (CAAT’S) 59.7 per-cent were employed by corporations and other big businesses. Of universitygraduates, 53 percent were also absorbed by the commercial ,,,manufattring and corporate sector. Financial institutions absorbed more than 20 percent of all graduates. Public utilities, and .transport and com. munications industries accounted for 20.5. percent of the CAAT graduates and 12.8 percent of the university graduates emp- _ loyed. -.._

This sector, ’ while not -included under corporations and big business, includes such corporate mammoths as Bell Canada, and the Canadian Pacific (CP) group. Bell is sometimes rriistakenly considered a public service monopoly, and CP is subsidized, for its losses, though both are profit oriented companies. Though the exact employment -figures for such companies are hard to extricate, they account for between 50 and 60 percent of the public utilities and _j transport and communications sector.

It is a’well established fact that the condition of employment with a profit-oriented company1 is that the cost of an employee (wages and salaries) is less than his/her productivity. The company wants to ‘make / a profit. * When graduates are employed in the p_rivate sector, it is very much more to the benefit of the employer than the employee. The graduate’s education is much more % beneficial to the company than it is to himjher. If this wasn’t so, there would be no campus recruiters. Therefore, it is natural to expect th,e com@nies to pay for / this education. L Under the present tax system, the individual bears the burden for paying educational costs. It is imperative that this burden be shifted to those that benefit by it. Since‘ 1966, 50 percent of all students enrolled in post-secondary institutions in Ontario have incurred personal debt ’ through the Canada Student Loan (CSL) plan to,meet their-educational expenses. It would be naive to believe that the student is the main beneficiary under CSL. In 1972-73 the federal government paid out approximately $3 million in interest payments 0n’CSL for that year alone. Interest payments on loans for previous years are

difficult to compare, since. in some cases students have begun ‘payments them* selves. The financial institutions take absolutely no risk under the CSL programme. The government underwrites the programme and pays any collection fees incurred. While the student obtains an interestfree loan for a few years, s/he will take up ‘payments once s/he has left the educational system. Interest payments account for more than half of the total payment made. For example, a. student with a total consolidated loan of only $1040 will make minimum payments of $15, a month. Of this, $8 a month is the interest payment. The other $7 goes towariis reducing the principal sum. It will take 12 years to pay the total amount of the loan. The student both subsidizes the corporate fmancial sector by incurring student loans, and his/her tuition subsidizes the increased technical productivity. Moreover, the disproportionate levels of personal in- . come tax paid to general government re- 1 venue on the part of wage and salary earners is being used to finance the higher levels of productivityjcorporate profit levels. . ,, . - .-
