I seek the Presidency of Students' Society because I can provide the dynamic, sensible leadership needed to truly represent McGill students' needs. This responsible approachable leader­ ship w ill strive to maintain an open ad­ ministration, fully accountable to all students. It is imperative that new approaches be pursued in eliminating the deficit. I have developed a nin-point program for financial success entitled the "Restora­ tion of Administration Responsibility",

(against motion of honoraria), on the women's committee (versus sexual harassment and sexual discrimination) and in issues concerning cutbacks — library hours and Gerts, fees and dues, student rights, South Africa, course selection, strikes and hikes, the fact re­ mains, your interests are my priority.

•President, Inter-Residence Council The President of the Students' Society represents students on the Board of Governors, the Senate and to the Ad­ ministration at large. In times of con­ stricting budgets, it is essential that the president be able to adequately repre­ sent the academic and non-academic needs of the students. W ith my ex­ perience, I believe I can best fulfill the role which is assigned the President.

stressing restraint as well as concrete, logical plans for the future. I dedicate myself to diligent service on your behalf, and invite your active support in labouring for a brighter future, which starts today.

Goals: "M O R E S T U D E N T S ' S O C IET Y FO R Y O U R M O N EY” I w ill make myself available to students, through regular office hours to discuss any issue of concern. Through the use of regular advertising, I will seek to make students increasingly aware o f the ser­ vices that Student Society offers them. By co-ordinating the efforts of the different clubs on joint activities, I hope to achieve greater results for all concerned.

I share your common beliefs and con­ cern. I, as V.P. Internal, will reject the constant excuse of "budget cutbacks" and make student services my top priori­ ty. I will also fight against education cut­ backs and tuition fee increases. This year, elect a candidate whose experience has shown that his priorities are indeed students' concerns.

D A V ID C U C K M A N Last year I transferred to M cG ill from Cornell University where I gained ex­ perience in decision making and leader­ ship as chairman of the Residence Judicial and Financial Committees, Presi­ dent of Marvin Gardens Cooperative, Business manager of the Cornell Lunatic, Literary editor of the Sperry Journal, and as student advisor. I've been a volunteer at Thomson County Jail, and the Shriners Hospital, and am presently a member of the Senate advisory Committee for the Disabled. I truly care about people and have the strength of character and the energy to pursue my ideals. You need a strong voice for Management — David Glickman.

As management students w e have often attached little importance to the Senate and its role in our University. W e seem to have given up on M cG ill policy, leaving it for others to deal with. This is unfortunate and should not continue. The Senate is a forum for which thoughts and ideas are put into action. H o w can I convince you that I am the right person for this Job and will have your best interests in mind each time decisions are being made affecting you? Should I list my previous ex­ periences, m y character traits? No, I will only give you my w ord that I will.

Do you approve of a Students’ Society Dues Increase as follows: 1) Undergraduate Students $8.85 per semester, one dollar of which shall be used specifically for programming (i.e. Welcome Week, W inter Carnival, Speakers, Conferences, Concerts, etc.), from $16.15 to $25.00 per semester, and; 2) Graduate Students $6.25 per semester, one dollar of which shall be used specifically for programming (i.e. Welcome Week, W inter Carnival, Speakers, Conferences, Concerts, etc.), from $11.75 to $18.00 per semester, and; 3) Part-time Undergraduate Students $4.55 per semester one dollar of which shall be used specifically for programming (i.e. Welcome Week, W inter Carnival, Speakers, Conferences, Concerts, etc.), from $7.95 to $12.50 per semester.

The science students at M cG ill com­ prise a strong and motivated group of in­ dividuals which, all to often, are not heard from. These students deserve the right to have their views and wishes voic­ ed to the Senate as well as being made of issues w hich are being discussed and their implications. Fulfilling such a posi­ tion requires a significant dedication of time. I am willing to take the time which is required to participate in the meetings of committees and other activities of Senate in order to serve the best interests of the University. M ore importantly, however, I will make myself available to hear your viewpoints so that I may serve the best interests of you, the student.

STUDENT DIRECTORY — EDITOR-IN-CHIEF OLD McGILL — EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Old McGill is the hard-cover, 350-page yearbook covering the entire school year.

He or she w ill also decide on other relevant information to be included in the directory. The Editor must be in the Montreal area over the summer.
