Letter
To the Tribune
I think the time has come to serious ly consider the further continuation of the Student Society Newsletter in it’s present form. If the purpose o f the Tribune re mains to serve the Society by informing members o f matters o f general and specific concern I would state that the Tribune is not living up to this pur pose. The lack o f continuity in issue pro duction from week to week, the finan cial structures which lead to issue cancellation and postponement, and the resulting lack o f editorial direction or identifiable format all lead to a general lack o f any functional realisa tion o f stated purposes. Council must at last decide whether
they want a Newsletter, whether they need a Newsletter, and whether the cost o f producing this Newsletter really outweighs the supposed benefits o f having one. Council must decide whether they value communication over fiscal responsibility. I am not in favour o f any person that suggests the Society has no need for the Tribune. There is always a need for publications at Universities. I am sug gesting that council (and particularly Prez Bruce Hicks) consider less costly formats and other alternatives. So far, it seems, Bruce seems to see the Tribune as a school for wayward junior advertising types. Sincerely,

Beacon on the Hill by Ravi Durvasula
Apathy is an issue given a great deal o f attention by a very small group o f people here at McGill. They remind us that this monster is rearing its ugly head, threatening to undermine the existence o f our campus life. Most o f us who read these reports simply don’t care. At The McGill Tribune, measures were taken by the resident utopian, Swami Todd (alias the Microbiology Minstrel), to effectively rid the McGill campus o f this blight. The illustrious former editor (?) established an Anti-Apathy committee open to the membership o f any McGill student. Concerned citizens o f our campus com munity who wished to fight apathy could join the committee and, by doing so, would have their names appear in the paper. O f course, nobody joined. Now, the Anti-Apathy committee is floundering due to a lack o f public concern. This outcome, I maintain, is not surprising. Apathetic people are the least likely candidates for an anti-apathy committee, unless, o f course, there is sufficient incen tive to join. So, I put forth the following proposals designed to raise the membership o f the committee from its current level o f two (Swami Todd and his mother) to a level o f hundreds and, yes, maybe even thousands: 1) Change the name and scope o f the committee from Anti-Apathy to AntiEverything. The new committee could purport to be against anything imaginable. Thus, it could be anti-establishment, anti-Board of Governors, anti-Uncle Sam, ap ple pie and Chevrolet all in one. It would be leftist, anarchist, subversive and de viant, thus assuring the membership o f the staff o f the McGill Daily. Though the merits o f this are questionable, it would, nonetheless, be a start. 2) Arrange for a provision whereby everyone who joins receives an increase in his or her CGPA o f 0.02. This simple manoeuvre would undoubtably attract every pre medical student on campus. The great body o f them would beat a path to the door o f the Tribune office, bearing letters o f glowing praise written by neighborhood priests, complete transcripts and original essays expressing ther “ genuine” interest in such-and-such a committee. This would swell the ranks o f the anti-apathetic to thousands. 3) Offer a free beer to anyone who joins. This strategy, which accounts for the suc cess o f most blood drives, would surely do the trick. For starters, it would draw the entire Faculty o f Engineering and might even attract those in other, less beeroriented, campus societies. The cost o f such a venture would indeed be enormous, but perhaps the price would be justified by the amount o f apathy alleviated. There are many other forms o f incentive-cum-bribery which could be employed to arouse the interests o f the various groups which make up the campus population. However, all o f these, like the preceding examples, border on the absurd. This episode, like so many episodes o f the past, points to the inescapable fact that apathy, in its quintessential form, cannot be rid o f by idealistic ventures, it exists at all levels o f society, taking its toll at both educational institutions and the “ real world” . So, unless the wonders o f medical science develope a vaccine to cure apathy (which, no doubt, no one will bother to take), it will remain unchecked. People can not be goaded to be anti-apathetic. Rather, they must call upon their intrinsic character themselves to participate in the world around them. The other option is that taken by the majority o f men and women: to remain with head buried deep in the ground, in the classic ostrich position, oblivious to all surroundings.
Peterson was the only other person who knew that A m y Marshall never ate or drank anything in the morning. Thompson found that fact very signifi cant because the presence o f fo o d in the stomach has a marked influence on the effect o f a poison. I f the stomach is empty, the effect will be rapid with fatal results. On the other hand, if the stomach is full, considerable delay may occur in the action o f the poison. With enough time, Thompson thought, Am y Marshall would have been able to be
treated f o r arsenical poisoning. Thompson figured that Stanley Peter son knew that and, therefore, planned to administer the poison when its effect would be most rapid- at a time when Marshall’s stomach was empty. Later, Peterson admitted to killing Am y Marshall in that manner because, as he confessed to Lieutenant Thomp son, I could not live in the same world with her if she was alive. So, you see, I had to kill her. ”

A dimension o f sound, a dimension o f mind, a dimen sion o f sight. You’re moving through a land o f cows and green pastures, of new life and civilizations. You boldly go where no fellow student has ven tured, you have entered Macdonald College. Heon: “ Kathy — what are these things?” Kathy: “ Cows. D on’t worry. I read in an ancient history book that they can’t hurt us.” Heon: “ That one seems to be a fine specimen o f the creature you call a cow .” Kathy: “ That’s a man.” Heon: “ What is he doing there?” Kathy: “ He is one o f a group o f male and female youths participating in a process called education.” Heon: “ What is the result o f this pro cess?” Kathy: “ They try to master the lower creatures and the enviroment.” Heon: “ Let us observe these humans in their social habitat... what is that peculiar form o f interaction?” Kathy: “ In my studies o f earthling behaviour this was called bar room socializing in which people voluntarily transported themselves from a state of

I’m Stephan von Craman, president o f the student socie ty here. Would you like a tour o f our campus.” Heon & Kathy: “ Yes, but first what is this ‘student society’?” Stephen von Cramen: “ It is an organization representing the entire body o f students here (approximately 1000). It coordinates student activities and interests. One such activity is the publication o f a newspaper called “ The Harvest” which is printed six times a year.” Kathy: “ Could you show us one?” Stephen von Cramen: “ Yes, I just so happen to have one here in my knap sack. This issue focuses on two organizations which we call RAEU and ANEQ, they represent student interests in this province o f Québec. Macdonald Campus students have chosen to join RAEU as they feel it is more responsive than ANEQ to student interests.” Heon: “ Do you have any social diseases here?” Stephen von Cramen: “ Apathy is pre sent but I think we’re getting a handle on it this year.” Heon & Kathy: “ Thank you for your informative tour. Macdonald College is a very attractive place. We especially enjoy observing your bar. We definite ly will return again, hopefully with more visitors.” Moral o f the story: have you visited Macdonald College this year? No? Why Not? “ it ain’t far.”
