Morris Hall dosed this year by Jeff Hodd

Adding to the confusion that nor mally precedes every school year, Morris Hall will be closed this year for renovations. All Faculty of Arts teaching assistants who, up to now, have had offices in the building, will be moved to other areas of the University, as will such other projects as the Tuesday Night Cafe, the Burney research project, the McGill Observer (a literary publication), the McGill Register (a publication of Mcgill History students), the McGill Literary Journal and the McGill History project. The reason for the renovations is to accomodate the Department of Islamic Studies which will be moving into

Morris Hall some time in the following year — perhaps as early as April or May 1982, according to Mr. C. Adler, Assistant Director of Physical Resources. At present, Islamic Studies occupies the eighth and ninth floors of the Stephen Leacock Building. When these floors are vacated, the Department of Philosophy, which presently* has its offices in the Bronf man Building, will move into this area. Accordint to Mr. Adler, there are basically two reasons for the shuffle. The first is that the University wants to relocate the Departments of Islamic Studies and Philosophy into the buildings which house their respective faculties. The second "and_far more important reason is that the suddent

How much time does fitness take? Let's put the issue of fitness and time iri perspective. The illustration here de picts one week. As you can clearly see, there are 672 squares. Each square rep resents a fifteen minute p erio d -4 per hour....96. per day....672 per week.

How not to get fit O nce and for all we’d like to clear up a few m isconceptions about fitness. None of the following ap proaches represents a sensible way to get fit: L T h e "drive you rself til you drop" approach 2. The "more it hurts the more it works" approach. 3. The "make up in an hour for what it took you ten years to lose" approach. The plain fact is that exercise does not have to hurt before it is doing you some good. Real gains start long before you reach the pain barrier. If you want to get fit, you have to get active. Do it...but don't overdo it. This is the sen sible approach to fitness. And it works.

Society ‘Veeps’ discuss priorities by Anne MacLennan

"I think it's time that students became 'militant' about a lot of issues that are happening. I think thé Students' Society is the vehicle with which to organize that opposition to present government educational policies and also towards the generally archaic structure of this university. I think that's the direction the Students' Society should be moving in, rather than seeing itself as a business oriented organization," says Richard Flint. Flint is one of the new executives of McGill's Students' Society. As VicePresident for university affairs bfe seems to think the time for student militism and activism is at hand. Flint is one member of the executive of the Students' Society which has recently set out its tentative goals in the first "Executive Committee Report". Their program for the coming academic year is an ambitious one. Two of the key elements of this program are a higher profile for the Students' Society and a greater degree of participation from the student body. Richard Flint indicated that the Students' Council should be "tied hand and foot" by the wishes of the students who elected them. He theorises about the democratization of student par ticipation, hoping to make it a reality. The result of such actions would be mass meeting or general assemblies of students at McGill making decisions affecting themselves and their Society. This type of movement would mean bringing the Student's Society out from its hiding place behind the elevators in the Students Union Building, onto the campus in general, according to Flint. Paul Smith, Vice-President for external affairs, agrees with moving the activities of Students' Society out onto the campus-at-large rather than restricting them to the Student Union Building. He puts participation in crease and communications on high priority for the coming year. As V.P. External Smith's program could have an important effect on the lives of students at McGill. He is responsible for the McGill Student Tenant's Association which is still in the planning stages. This organization would hope to provide information regarding leases, sublets, conditions and locations of apartments in the city. If this project is successfully realized, it might deal with such problems as the renovation of the McGill student ghetto that is slowly forcing students out of the area. An Internal Com m unications Committee is also being formed in the External Affairs department. This is a new committee whose job is to inform the rest of the campus about issues of interest, such as South Africa and El Salvador. This goal would be achieved through a series, of debates, guest speakers and other activities.

Paul Smith feels that this is the time for movement and change. He says, "Last year was some kind of unspoken turning point, when people just started to get involved... the apathy is dying". The VP for External Affairs also spoke about the CEQ-initiated "Semaine du Mouvement étudiant" scheduled for November. It is hoped that McGill will participate fully in this protest against such things as government educational cutbacks which face the whole McGill com munity. Another part of Smith's program is to strengthen ties with the Montreal community. The expansion of the day care center was one of the proposed projects, award this end, however it has been temporarily stalled. The university has permitted the expansion but the government has put a halt to all such projects across the province. One of Richard Flint's pet projects is to establish a cooperative library and research centre, which will be located on the fourth floor of the Student Union Building. This library would be used and run by students.

The centre would provice its members with materials such as pamphlets, magazines and books that are not readily available at the usual sources for students. Flint hopes the library will be able to carry material on student organizations, South Africa, El Salvador as well as feminist and gay literature. The "Executive Committee Report also calls for many improvements of existing policies and functions. However, the most apparent change in policy is the appeal for greater student participation and involvement. Flint summed up this sentiment in his closing comments, "It's the kind of thing that a lot of people have got to get involved in; if people want to take control of their Students' Society they've got to do so. If I may quote that great socialist, James Connelly who once said, "The great only appear great because we are on our knees — let us rise". I think in some way that's an apt saying for the Student's Society. The Students' Society only appears to be above our heads, because we are on our knees. Maybe it's time we rose up and took control of it."

Program board revamped Tell your

by Gisele Delente This year McGill's Program Board broadened its scope so that it now encompasses Welcome Week, Winter Carnival, the Speakers' Committee, Activities Night, and General Programs such a Mao Koffman's concert on October 28 at Pollack Hall, and a Halloween Dance at the Union ballroom on October 31. It also has its own publicity and finance committees to work on every event. Rather than having last , minute volunteers to organize each committee ‘for the various events, there are now per manent chairmen in charge of the activities, so that volunteers need no longer be doomed to mass confusion. They can turn to the, Program Board as a sort of information centre, and use the experience of the chairmen. According to Adrienne Jones, Chairman of the Program Board, the new executive is strong, dedicated, and creative enough to handle all of the activities that now fall under the jurisdiction of the Board. Bruce Hicks, Vice-Chairman of the Speakers' Committee, has an im pressive background in organizing events of all kinds, including speakers programs. He has been chief organizer çf the IWlitical Science Students' Association and a member of the ASUS Speakers' Association. Miss Jortes feels certain that this experience will enable the speakers program to become the best on campus, and will bring a political flavour to the Program Board. Bruce plans to organize debates between political figures, and will bring in personalities from the en tertainment world as well. Paul Mason is Vice-Chairman of General Programs and has experience in organizing entertainment at McGill dating back to 1978, including a Doug an the Slugs concert, and a Bette Midler film festival. According to Miss Jones, he intends to bridge the gap between Welcome Week and Winter Carnival by organizing more events in this period, since this is often a time of apathy on campus.

Outside of the Program Board are Earle Taylor and Cathie Sheeran, the staff advisors. Cathie Sheeran is the acting Liaison Officer to the Dean of Students, and Earle Taylor is the Students' Society Program Director. Keith Hennessey is the Board's voice on the Council and is V.P. Internal of the Students' Society. Miss Jones says that the one thing now needed to make the Program Board work is a large team of volunteers who will contribute time and ideas to the Board's activities. You can work as little or as much as you like on any of the activities, and may get so involved that you may be the next chairman. The Program Board office is in room B07 in the Union, and the phone number is 392-8976. Anyone is welcome to visit the office or call Adrienne Jones any time for more information.

Richard Pinnock, Vice-Chairman of Finance, fulfills duties including preliminary budgeting, cash control, and bookkeeping. Miss Jones says he also will be working to relieve the apathy on campus by encouraging pep rallies, and getting student club members to actively use word-ofmouth advertising. Bruce Williams, Vice-Chairman of Publicity, plans to use several ad vertising methods that will entail more than handing out fliers and putting up posters. He had developed the Program Board and Welcome Week logos, and plans to use buttons, t-shirts, balloons, and attacks on students at registration. He will also be organizing various contests such as dance marathons, and plans to advertise off-campus as well as on. Caroline Stamegna and Ronnie Segal, newcomers t c programming at McGill, are Co-chairmen of Welcome Week. Due to the Program Board's experienced executive, students who have never been involved in organizing activities such as Welcome Week can do so, and can turn to the Board for information and help whenever necessary. Angele Mullins and Maisie Chung Co-chairman of the 1982 Winter Carnival, and plan to make it a ten-day carnival as in 1980. Traditional events such as a ski trip, ice sculptures, and a big final concert are all to be included, well as several surprises that are, now in the works.

Now that I’m here, what do I do? by Tribune Staff Barbara Montgomery is a Senator, a Governor, and a Councillor. Though elected to the latter, Montgomery was acclaimed to the positions of Graduate Student Senator (academic) and Graduate Representative to the Board of Governors. It is not, she readily admits, vast commitment to McGill student politics which motivated her extensive involvement. Montgomery's political career was prompted by curiosity and a firsthand look at student apathy, while she held the position of Chief Returning officer two years ago. "There were bitter conflicts over some positions, and absolutely no interest in others. I realize how easy it could be to obtain a position, despite how difficult the red tape and the election process made it seem.'' This year, as a candidate, Barb

events given in exchange. Aspects of the Executive's declared aim toward prom oting social responsibility seem to bother her. "It's nice that the Students' Society is politically aware, but does that really have anything to do with their jobs? And, should we assume it does, how do they know how anyone else feels? Have they ever canvassed anybody?" While trying to obtain the necessary signatures for her nomination — a job which she describes as unbelievably frustrating, considering post-graduate opinions of the positions — Barb Montgomery claimed her only qualification was curiosity. Now she has added to the list a strong voice when needed, many brewing ideas, and a commitment to communication. The last item gives her away. Mon tgomery is no longer a novice.

Montgomery has discovered the reason behind much of the indifference — at least within the graduate faculties. She believes the interests of grad students have been ignored for so long that they no longer see their representatives as anything more than figureheads. Montgomery believes that this situation might be somewhat alleviated were the various governing bodies at McGill more integrated. Considering her unique situation, she seems to be in a particularly good position to see this done. Montgomery would like to see a more student-oriented campus. Of the goals defined by the new Executive, she considers continued quality and consistency of services among the most vital. She suggests using volunteers to maintain these if necessary, and would like to see free tickets to Stud/Soc.

by Tribune Staff Have you ever needed just one staple to keep all your term paper notes together but the guy on duty in the Library wouldn't let you use his stapler? Have you ever been totally fed up by some professor who is never in her office when she's supposed to be and this is your fifth trip up to the ninth floor of the McIntyre building? Wait. Don't give up hope. This old boat called McGill can be rocked and Uncle James won't even turn in his grave. Yes, thanks to some student radicals in the late 60's who dared to suggest that students participate in governing the University, McGill students have representatives on the University Senate and the Board of Governors. These people were elected to represent your views in the policy making process at McGill so if you have a beef and following normal channels doesn't produce results, use your political clout. You can contact the student senators or governors by leaving a message with your name and phone number in the Students' Society General Office, room 105 or the Student Union Building. They'll give you a call as soon as they can. If at any time your constituency does not have an elected rep in office, direct your inquiry to one of the ex-officio student representatives.

Provincial legal aid - know your rights If the applicant qualifies for legal aid, the director of the office will issue a certificate to that effect. The ap plicant's case is then forwarded to a legal aid lawyer or,^if the person prefers, to a lawyer in private practice who accepts the case and is on the list of "participating lawyers" who accept legal aid mandates. In the case of an emergency, a temporary certificate may be issued although the final decision regarding eligibility has not been made. If one's application is refused, one may ask to have the decision reviewed

of the legal aid office so decides. The maximums themselves will vary depending on such factors as the marital status of the applicant and the number of his dependants. Provincial legal aid is not available for certain procedures. Notably, legal aid will be refused where the applicant is suing for a specific amount of money. Regardless, an application should be made for should one lose one's case, legal aid may cover court costs incurred. Additionally, legal aid is not available to contest parking violations.

By McGill Legal Aid Staff

If a person is within a certain income level, he may have a right to free legal services from provincial legal aid, a service of the government of Quebec. This free legal service includes both the judicial and extra-judicial fees of a notary or lawyer, court costs, as well as the costs of a bailiff, stenographer or expert. Generally, the request for legal aid is made to the legal aid office nearest to the residence of the applicant. However, another office may accept the request provided the applicant can establish a valid reason for not having applied to the office nearest him. An individual qualifies for legal aid if his weekly salary is below the ap plicable maximum and if the hiring of a lawyer would deprive him of his means of sustenance. One's ability to get legal aid also depends upon the amount of property one owns, its convertability into liquid assets, the amount of in debtedness and the nature of the legal services for which the request is being made. Family allowances and student grants are excluded from the calculation of gross weekly income and those who receive social welfare benefits are automatically eligible for legal aid. In certain exceptional circumstances however, a person whose gross income exceeds the applicable maximum may still qualify for legal aid if the director

by a review committee. This must be done in writing within 15 days of the refusal and delivered to the president of the "Commission des services juridiques". In case of doubt as to one's eligibility, one should check with the provincial legal aid office in one's area. For more information about the law, please contact the McGill Campus Legal Aid Clinic, a service sponsored by the McGill Students' Society, located in Room B20 of the Student Union Building, 3480 McTavish Street.

Course Guide system improved some changes that will, its editors hope, be viewed as improvements. The 1981 'Guide' includes reruns of previously published evaluations of courses that were not evaluated or offered this year. This feature was added because many departments alternate their course offerings from year to year. The result is that the evaluations of courses that are alternated appear only in years the course is not offered. This rerun feature also helps the student who is looking for an evaluation of a course taught by a professor who was on sabbatical the previous year. This year his evaluations from the year before are included, so that students will have an idea about his courses.

by Anne MacLennan The Arts and Science Undergraduate Society Course Evaluation Guide is the only publication of its type at McGill that has been available with any consistency in the past few years. The 'Guide' has been compiled in one form or another since 1964, and it has ap peared in its present complete form since 1977. During these years it has met with a variety of obstacles such as lack of cooperation and objections from students and staff as well as the high cost of production. The standard features of the 'Guide' have- been a statistical breakdown of responses to the questionnaires and accompanying blurbs. This year's edition however, has

This year the departments were also given a chance to look over the written blurbs before they were sent to the printer. This way they would be able to eliminate any errors and they could also give the professors of the department a preview of the evaluations for their own records. The English Department, however, did not choose to make use of this op portunity. The 1981 'Guide' has been available to McGill students and staff since August 18th. For your own copy of the 'Guide' please contact the ASUS. They will be distributed as teh ASUS table during registration and in the lobbies of the Arts, Leacock and Student Union Buildings.

The Canadian Student Movement As a McGill student, you are part of what is generally known as the "student movement". This refers not to a bodily function, nor to a psychological disorder, but to a socio-political force. And that means that students as such, have particular needs, concerns and claims which "move" them ultimately to join forces and organize. Your Students' Society is an example of suclran organization. But students are organized on even broader bases — both provincially and nationally. In these contexts, you are likely to hear a lot about the National Union of Students (NUS) and the Rassemblement des associations étudiants universitaires (RAEU). RAEU is the Québec Federation of University Students and was organized in 1978. McGill has always played, and continues to play a very important role in this political organization. The McGill Students' Society was in strumental in RAEU's formation and McGill students have always held positions of responsibility in the executive of the organization. The McGill Students' Society pays $8,000 per year in membership fees to RAEUra fee which far surpasses any other member organization fees except Concordia which also pays $8,000 per year. Furthermore, RAEU benefits (as McGill does) from having its head office in our very own University Centre. This heavy involvement in the formation and support of RAEU translates into opportunity for McGill students; opportunity to weigh heavily in the Quebec student movement; an opportunity which should not be

passed up. This challenge continues to be taken up by our three reps to RAEU. They are Diane Bowman, Dave Weiner and Stephan Le Goueff who have an office in the Union (room 406) and are always willing to discuss issues con cerning RAEU. The national student movement is composed of the National Union of Students (political affairs) and the Association of Student Councils (AOSC) as its service arm. Both these entities are to merge shortly to become the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS).

McGill, unfortunately, is not a member of the NUS or AOSC. The reason for this is historical. There exists an agreement between NUS and RAEU whereby "NUS recognizes Quebec's right to self determination". In practical terms, this means that no Quebec university organization is invited to join the national organization and RAEU, and of course, restricts itself to Quebec. Thus McGill's heavy involvement in the Quebec student movement is counterbalanced by its total absence on the national scene.

“Collective” will collect resources

This year the Students' Society has decided to embark upon an ambitious new project; the establishment of a Resource Centre in room 433 of the University Centre Building. The Resource Centre is essentially astreet library and file bank. It will contain files, minutes and newsletters of student organizations throughout Quebec (and the world). Research documents, discussion papers, newspapers of associations, groups and various organizations and.source materials. It ishoped that any document produced (of interest) within McGill will be there for quick reference. Thereshould also be reference books and -pamphlets available as well. We are asking all McGill students groups to support the project by donating materials and, if possible, by donating subscriptions to publications that they consider of value to the

Centre and to students in general. But the real direction of the Centre will be decided by those people who choose to get involved in the project. The Centre will be entirely run by volunteer labour. Each pèrson who wishes to work for the Resource Centre will be a member of the Resource Centre collective. Each collective member will be expected to commit a certain amount of time every week in the Centre. All you have to do is sit in the room, answer the phone and show people how the library works. With any luck we should also have a coffee maker of some kind in the Centre. Collective members will meet every now and then to discuss publicity and projects for the Centre. Whatever particular members wish to see in the Centre they can solicit themselves. There are already certain projects in the air. We are hoping to encourage

Summer job It has been a busy summer at the Students' Society. While you have been away, we have been organizing for the coming year: determining priorities and developing plans of action. Major efforts for the summer have included negotiating with the Dean of Students about Student Services, developing a council of presidents, trying to balance budgets and establishing a resource centre. The year promises to have a more productive CCSS (Committee for the Coordination of Student Services), with monthly meetings and an active student caucus. The Dean of Students has set a meeting schedule (the first meeting is October 1 at 4:00 p.m., in room 203 of the Powell Student Services Building), members will be given an overview of the entire Student Services operation and will be involved in making decisions regarding the $95.00 that all students pay each year for these services. We need active and committed students to serve on the CCSS and its sub-committees; please contact Richard Flint, V.P. University Affairs (392-8971) if you are interested. The council of presidents is

Perhaps this is one of the con tradictions which makes for vitality in the student movement. Perhaps it is from such situations that McGill students derive their drive 'to participate ... and perhaps the situation may not be permanent.

primarily a coordinating/communicating/advisory body, made up of the presidents of the faculty societies, the Inter-Residence Council and the InterFraternity Council. Work over the summer has included developing a Handicapped Access programme, researching student representation on faculty councils and attempting to increase participation in spectator sports. This group has truly been working with the best interests of all McGill students in mind. Please contact your faculty society president to ensure your input in this body. The Students' Society budget for 1981/82 reflects the depressing economic atmosphere that is all too pervasive in our lives. We are trying to accommodate requests as best we can. Please address any complaints or questions to Salim Tharani, V.P. Finance (392-8972). Finally, we have worked to establish a resource centre, which will house inform ation regarding student government (that of McGill, Quebec and Canada), minutes of meetings and subscriptions to periodicals not available elsewhere within the

This is only a glimpse of what the executive has been working on over the summer.

people to loan their books to the Centre so that there will be books as well as documents. This year we would also like to be able to establish lecture notes and essay banks. There will also be an electric typewriter and desks in the Centre which people are welcome to use for non-academic purposes of various types. If you wish to get involved, you can leave a message at the Centre (Union 433) or at the Students' Society General Office. You could also speak with me at any time by claling 3928971 or by asking for me at the Students' Society General Office. The Resource Centre will be what we make it, so get involved and help make it that much better.

Comment être en forme sans faire de jogging Le jogging, c'est très bien. Mais il y a bien d'autres moyens d'être en forme. Par exemple. ..Allez jouer dans le parc, Marc. Faites de la raquette, Huguette. Prenez des cours de danse, Hortense. Faites ce que vous aimez, Aimé, Après tout ...Vous pouvez vous bai gner dans la mer, Orner Escalader une montagne, Charlemagne. Faire du patin à roulettes, Ginette. Ou juste aller dehors, Hector. Et bientôt...Vous retrouverez votre haleine, Hélène. Vous deviendrez un as, Jonas. Vous serez encore plus belle, Isabelle, Pensez-y...Trois fois par semaine, Philomène. Quinze minutes chaque fois, François. L'important, c'est de com m encer, André, Dieudonné et Zoé. Y a-t-il autant de façon d'être en forme qu'il y a de gens qui veulent être en forme? Oui, Louis...et comment, Armand!

Y O U R V IE W by Tribune Staff During a weekend retreat, the Executivre Committee compiled a report outlining their goals for the coming year, and the means by which they intend to achieve those goals.

(See column from V.P. University Affairs). 5) to develop a comprehensive communications program that would enable an exchange of information both within the University and in the outside community. 6) To increase student participation by investigating participatory democracy and using the new Program Board. (See Program Board article). 7) To strengthen the Quebec Student Movement by investigating and developing possible relationships with and among the-following student

a committee to negotiate with the University about funding such a project. 16) To improve student welfare services, and provide new services such as retaining a professional lawyer to represent and/or counsel students, ensuring daycare expansion, and advertising and expanding the role of Ombudsman. 17) To create a liaison with the Presidents' Council, and have regular meetings with the Council, in order to increase and share knowledge about students and the University.

McGill Development Office by Gavin Ross Financial support from the private sector has been essential to McGill from its founding. Support is received from individuals (alumni and non alumni), from corporations, foun dations, associations, and in the form of bequests. In the two capital cam paigns of the seventies, the McGill Development Program and the Macdonald Agricultural Campaign Development Program, proceeds totalling almost $34,000,000 were realized. The McGill Development Office organizes and operates three annual giving programs and ongoing bequest and corporation programs. The McGill Alma Mater Fund provides an op portunity for graduates to support the University and in the fiscal year 198081, gifts totalling $1,430,260 were received from nearly 17,000 graduates. Another annual giving program is the McGill Parents Fund to which non alumni parents of students past and present each year give in excess of $50,000. The majority of these gifts benefit the University's many libraries. Additional annual support is given by

ATTENTION ALL McGILL STUDENT LEADERS

the McGill Associates, members of the business and professional community of Montreal .who did not themselves attend McGill but believe that the University is a most important part of the community. Established as the McGill Fund Office in 1975, the Development Office is staffed to help and advise faculties, schools, departments and individuals on all fund raising activities which do not fall within the scope of the work of the Research Grants and Contracts Offices of the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research. Working in close collaboration with these offices and with the office of the Secretary General of the University the Development Office acts as an operational centre and "clearing house" so as to co-ordinate all fund raising in such a way as to generate maximum benefit for the University. More than 1,000 volunteers around the world assist a small professional staff operating out of Martlet House, 3605 Mountain Street. This building is shared by the Development Office and the Graduates' Society of McGill University.

If you walk down the main staircase of the Union Building, you will inevitably be faced by CUTS, (Canadian University Travel Service), a welcome addition to the McGill campus this Fall. CUTS, a fully liscensed non-profit travel agency operated by AOSC, (Association of Student Councils), offers inexpensive excursions for college students in cluding anything from Christmas excursions to camping trips. CUTS' Christmas charters are expected to run for a little more than half of the regular

fare but be forewarned. You should book as soon as possible because low prices make travel a very attractive deal and charters are frequently sold out well in advance. It was only last March that the McGill Students' Council approved the proposal to establish a student travel service on the McGill campus. Results have been achieved quickly. The construction of the CUTS office is due to be completed in mid September and CUTS should be in operation soor after.

Activités Night The many faces of SST Typesetting

by Gigi Delente

As registration and Welcome Week come to an end, that time of year once again arrives during which thousands of students, new and old, can be seen milling about inside the Union with bewildered, curious, even crazed looks on their faces. Perhaps a few roving minstrels are found plucking lyres with awesome skill while two fencers in white attack each other with for midable panache. It is Activities Night once again, and, as in past years, one can expect a very informative evening and a possible great time. Nearly all of the clubs and student associations of McGill are represented at Activities Night, vying for the students' interest. While most of the

organizations will content themselves with a modest table covered with pamphlets, flyers, and pictures, others marketing schemes that make them difficult to pass up. Members of the Savoy Society and Player's'Theatre may be found, fully costumed, offering scenes from a play or a musical, while the fearless members of the Outing Club will be climbing the walls once more. Since it can be very hard for a student to content with the offers each club presents to him, a bar will be provided for relieving the mental strain of decision making. September 16 is when all of this will be happening, so if you think there is more to education than lectures and books, don't miss this opportunity to prove it to yourself.

New Bell System by Jeff Hodd In keeping with McGill's long standing progressive interest' in communications, the Student Union Building has decided to add some interesting new items to the string of public phones that presently line the wall outside of the ladies' restroom. These include three new public phones, which will bring the grand total to seven; a twenty-four hour telephone hotline service; and an inside phone that allows the caller to contact any office or department on the McGill campus free of charge. The telephone hotline is, of course, the most interesting item on the list. This phone (the number is 392-8925), will inform the caller of every up coming event at McGill University. It will be, as was already mentioned, in operation twenty-four hours a day. The items recounted on this recorded

message could included such events as dances, parties, guest-lecturers, guestperformers, the Blood Drive, drama performances, etc. In the event that the message is not run or if something goes wrong, one should contact Sadie's by dialing 392-8926. Students who wish to announce an event using this recorded message will be able to pick up the appropriate forms at the Students' Society desk in the Union Building. When the form is completed, it should be returned to the same desk. The message will then be announced during the following week. So, any students wishing to take advantage of this directory of events should make sure to have submitted his or her message(s) a good week ahead of time, in order to avoid any problems. Students are advised to 'be on the lookout' for any upcoming in formation.

(continued from page 1) can now be found on the eight floor in what was the Senate Meeting Room. The new Senate Meeting Room will be on the second floor (both are alsc in the Stephen Leacock Building). The Burney project has found a new home in the Redpath Library. As of yet, the publications and the McGill History project have not been relocated. However, by the time this issue is published these may have indeed found new office spaces. If information is required as to their whereabouts, it is suggested that one inquire at the General Offices of the related departments, which are: English — Arts Building, N° 155, History — Stephen Leacock Building, N° 625. For the 1981-82 year, the Tuesday Night Cafe will be sharing the Player's Theatre with the English Department's Theatre Laboratory. When the renovations are completed on Morris Hall, space will again be provided in the basement for the 'Cafe' and its members. When asked about the general reaction of those displaced, Mr. Adler said, 'I haven't heard much negative feedback, at this point'. However, what kind of feedback is to be expected once the school year has started can only be guessed. Mr. Alder seems to be optimistic and feels that sufficient space has been provided for all while the long-awaited renovations on Morris Hall have been completed.
