Brian Schnarch w ithdrew his question asking students to pull out of the Federation Etudiante Universitaire du Quebec (FEUQ) yesterday. Schnarch's student-initiated question was pulled in light of a separate cam paign set up by Students' Society (SSMU) VP External Karla MacDonald, which asks students to give SSMU a m andate to continue in FEUQ. Schnarch feared a possible conflicting result from confusion of tw o separate referendum questions dealing with FEUQ. "Student Council initiated a second referendum creating a great deal of confusion," said Schnarch. "We d o n 't w ant confusion- we just w ant to pu 11out of FEUQ." MacDonald welcomed Schnarch's move. "The reason w hy the Council initiated a question w as to clarify fFEUQ policies]" sa id MacDonald. "I think the question left is clearenough for students." Voting in the referendum and SSMU general elections continue through this Thursday.

The Black Students' N etw ork (BSN) of McGill University is continuing its struggle to raise aw areness of a proposal for a Black Studies P-rogram at McGill University. The proposal has been rejected twice from the McGill History departm ent, but BSN Representative C hantal Thomas feels that there is a large enough student interest in black history to support the program. "The history departm ent argued that they couldn't be sure if the course w ould attract significant interest," explained Thomas regarding the last proposal rejection,"Since we have hundreds of signatures from McGill students w ho are interested, we d id n 't feel this was a valid argum ent." A panel of speakers will attend a C om m unity Forum entitled "The Challenge of Black Studies" which will be held W ednesday, March 11.

C o n s t r u c t io n h o ld - u p a t C u r r ie G y m Construction at the A rthur C urrie G ym nasium has fallen behind schedule. Delays caused by exam period, technicalities w ith the building perm its and cold w eather have backed deadlines up a by at least six months. "The original deadline was supposed to be September '92, now that's been moved back to late w inter ’93," explained James Stewart, Athletic Rep.,"It's conceivable that it might even be later than that." Problem sarising from 19S4 cost estima tes, which have since doubled, translate into a huge money shortage for the four-phase construction project. The esti mated 58,000,000 shortfall for the first two phases is hoped to be partially compensated bv the 21st C entury Fund, but the end point of C urrie construction seems elusive. "Every student shou Id be upset about it,"stated Stewart,"Every time vou turn around there's another problem."

M c G i l l A t h l e t i c s B o a r d : 1, R e d m e n l o g o : 0 , ( F ) The Redmen logo has been finally and officially term inated. Last week, a decision was m ade at a meeting of the McGill Athletics Board after student concern that the logo, which depicts a Native person w earing a headdress, endorsed stereotypical views of Native people. "I think that most people in athletics are disappointed to see it go," stated Ear! Zukerm an, Publications and Com m unications Officer of McGill Athletics,"We d id n 't feel that it was intended as a stereotype o ra racist type of logo. O neof the football players, w ho is of Indian descent, even had the logo tattooed on his body." Present contention about the racial connotations of the Redmen nam e has also arisen but the logo and the name arc seen as separate issues bv Richard Pound, chairman of the Athletics Board, who firmly stated that "unless we find historical evidence which establishes that the Red men nam ccam c from other than the color of McGill's uniforms, we intend to preserve the traditional name for our mens' tea ms." It is not known w hat will replace the Redmen logo, or if it will be replaced at all.

1- 8 0 0 - i t ' s - F E U Q Fédérations Etudiante Universitaire de Québec (FEUQ) will be offering a new service for students w ho need help with their Quebec financial appeals for loans and bursaries. A 1-800 num ber will be installed in the FEUQ office where a bilingual representative will be available to take calls. As FEUQ delegates prescntlv hold positions on the provincial governm ent's loans and bursary appeal committee, representatives should be able to handle all student inquiries. The line will be open all year round during regular FEUQ office hours. Architecture representative to Council David Gruber, lauded FEUQ's posses sive political savvy. "It's a blatant attem pt to bribe voters,"said G ruber,"but it's not a bad idea."

Home, e x p e n s i v e h o m e : C K U T Negotiations are underw ay to charge CKUT an unprecedented 518,000 rent. The new rent would fulfill the Student's Society of McGill University (SSMU) fall m andate to charge all non-SSMU organizations m aintenance fees. At a meeting iast week, council member Alexandra Clark, Arts Rep., voiced concerns that CKUT, being a fairly young organization, w ould be unable to pay for the rent but VP Internal, Alex Johnston disagreed. "CKUT has had 7vears to organize their finances, their original lease was made in 1985. This charge is not rent, it is our policy (SSMU) to charge m aintenance fees and CKUT has several ways that they can pay for it." Johnston recommended governm ent loans and bursa ries, or a student fee raise referendum, to generate funds. Johnston insisted that: "The Student Society cannot be responsible forthc financial m ism anagem ent of CKUT."

The Silhouette McMaster University___________ McMaster University has fired a tenu red professor as a resu 11of com plaints of sexual harassment filed against him. On January 22 of this year the Senateand Board of Governors met separately and endorsed a hearing committee report that said the be haviour of the faculty member cre ated a "hostile, offensive and in timidating work environment" for students and staff. It also said his "unethical aca demic beha vi ou r im pa ired | h is | u sefulncss as a member of the univer sity".

Those outside the hearing comm i ttce knew nothing of the investigation or the allegations until a public relations news brief was released early in February. The hearing committee was struck in the fall of 1989 after several staff and students placed com plaints of sexual harassment. Hearings were conducted within the university between February 1990 and March 1991 and on November 29 of last year the hearing committee report was completed. The professor's name is not being released. "It is not a question of hiding anything," said Arthur Heidebrecht, provost and vice-president academic, who said it was the uni-

versity's employment policy and the protection of the complai na nts' identities which prohibited the re lease. "Nobody wants to see this sort of thing at the university. We all feel very badly for the victims." "The university did take this very seriously... With the seriousness of these incidences and the increased awareness in the community there is a strong receptivity to this case." "1 hope we don't see more cases Iof sexual harassment] in the uni versity, but I'm not so idealistic to think that we won't." The hearingcommitteewasmade up of full time employees who had to use the employment policy to investigate the allegation since

Though Jones said he thought te process could have been speeded up, he called the action a major move forward, and a sign that the university was stepping forward to deal with a problem found in all aspects of society. v

McMaster hasnosexual harassment policy to deal with these cases. Heidebrecht said this slowed the process down. "Better |slowing down] than destroying someone's career or damaging the persons involved." Dylan Jones, McMasterStudents Union president called the univer sity's action positive. "This shows a clear statement that the university will not accept that kind of behaviour." "On the other hand the sheer

The Gazette University of Western Ontario Reductions in first-year enrol ment at some Ontario universities and thecurrcntrccession will make it harder for high school students to get into university, according to London secondary school guidance counsellors. " 11is al read y pre tty com pc ti ti ve," said Peter Ccndron, ncad of Wesministcr Secondary School's guidance department. "And [the cu ts to enrol men 11a re going to ma ke it even more competitive." Gendron said the high cost of living away from home will likely prevent many London high school students from applying to out-oftown schools. He said this will put more pressurcon Western and other southwestern Ontario institutions.

But the enrolment cuts may be one of the few options left for some universities since government funding will be increased by only one per cent this year, says Tom Collins, Western's VP-Academic. "With McMaster now, other people will be jumping on the bandwagon for 1992-93," Collins said. McMaster University anounced that it will cut its first-year enrolment by six per cent next September. H o w e v e r, C o llin s sa id W e ste rn c a n n o t re d u c e first-y e a r e n ro lm e n t b e c a u se it n e e d s th e tu itio n fees a n d p ro v in c ia l fu n d in g to m a ita in its o p e ra tio n s. W e ste rn a d m itte d 4,086 first-y e a r s tu d e n ts this year.

McMaster is not the only school trimming its enrolment. Waterloo will cut 10 percent from next year's

first-year enrolment. And Laurier announced last week it will cut its first-year numbers by 275 places— a 16 per cent drop. "Universities just cannot keep taking all the students when they do not have sufficient facilities, faculty or staff," Collins said. York's VP-Institutional Affairs says these cuts are a sign of things to come. "Universities will have to reduce enrolment to a point at which it is commensurate with government funding," Sheldon Levy said. York will axe i ts first-year total by 8.3 per cent. University of Toronto President Robert Prichard also predicted a 10 per cent drop, or 600 students, in first-year admissions at his school. x

Ray Hunt, head of guidance at London's Lucas Secondary School says the number of students from his school applying to universities is signi fican tl y a own from la s t year. Hunt said about 150 Grade 13 students have applied to universi ties—down about 25 per cent from the norm. Some of the students have changed their choices of universi ties to schools at which their cur rent marks are more competitive, Huntaddcd.

I M oderating the movement

E d ito r ia l

Dare it be said? Feminism- of the immoderate kind- has a few glitches. Although the goal of equality for women is impera tive, some means of achieving equality still have significant flaws. Equal pay for equal work, and the minimization of gender as an issue are admirable inten tions. Feminism also works to free women from oppression and the fear of aggression, at tack, harassment, or rape. Most importantly, feminism purports to respect people as individu als, and notas objects or things. Sadly, in pursuit of these goals, some techniques of the feminist movement are ham pering their realization. The tendency of some femi nists to use the same techniques

of victimization or censorship that they oppose is extremely dis turbing. Groups like single-sex fraternities and sororities, regardless of their relevance or appeal, have a right to exist. The recent activities of some individ ual members of McGill fraterni ties might demonstrate a chilling lack of concern for women, but to condemn fraternities as illegiti mate is a violation of their right to assemble. This condemnation si lences a group on the basis of gender. One of the complaints of femi nists is the historical lack of voice for women. To refuse men's or women’s groups a voice because of the sex of their membership is equally discriminatory, and in complete opposition to the feminist ideal of equality.

Letters to the E ditor A n d w ith a n iro n ic a lly o p p o s e d 4 8 -y a rd rush... To the E d ito r U nhappy readers, l bring news of an earthshattering crisis! I just happened on the Entertainm ent section of the February 19th Trib. Consternation! Pandemonium! Ashen faced, I flipped to the sports section, realizing w hat had taken place: THEATRE WRITERS HAD BEEN SENT TO THE FOOTBALL GAME!!!! And as for the tw o theatre reviews, well, judge for yourself: Kim Rvgiel, w ho reviewed The Im portance of Being Earnest at Players' th eatre, correctly adm its that she found the production "confusing." And indeed, one feels for her. After deftly sum m arizing the plot of som e other play, ahe begins her analysis. "Disparity'occurs," she asserts with typically razor-like insight, "between the dialogue and the setting. " The poor dear, perhaps unfam iliar w ith such a radically new idea as costuming out of period, is bewildered by the facLthat "Victorian diction and... period references clash with the... flashy m odern costumes." Thus disoriented bv a sim ple costum e choice, one can imagine her state when confronted with the inversions of gender and sexuality that are central to the production. She can merely re-articulate her "confusion" with the resulting "disunity." Manv audience mem bers, including myself, have found these dualities in setting and gender though-provoking, but the presence of more than one o n stage elem ent at a time seems to have sim ply overloaded Ms. Rygicl's cerebral circuitry, stopping any deeper insight dead in its tracks. Da vid North (thesecond reviewer) takes a safer rou tcand, saying less, makes proportionally less of an idiot of himself. In fact, he says next to nothing at all about The Love of the Nightingale. After assuring us that he got the message of the production (distinctly more than Ms. Rvgiel can say) ho spends the rest of the review w ondering w hy the playw right, Timberlakc W ertenbcrger (fries and a shake with that, please), "added" a "peripheral chorus" to the

Worse, perhaps, is the inability of some to accept criticism, dis sension, or even a diversity of opinion, which might be con structive or stimulating. A cynical response to legitimate criticism is disrespectful. Men like those a t the Gender-neu tral Debate last fall are shouted down or labelled misogynist by some in sweeping generalizations. McGill's own 'A Place for Ethan’, regardless of its efficacy, should have been applauded for making an effort in the interests of feminism, instead of ridiculed. Responses like this discredit the feminist belief that people should be respected as individuals re gardless of gender. Perhaps more telling is the attitiude displayed to women by some feminists.

C o m m u n ic a tio n harriers le a v e frats in th e c o ld To the Editor: Sara Borins' Tower of Rabble article (March 4) proves that frater nity-bashing is still a perenially favourite McGill pastime. She quotes statem ents by' recent 1FC presidents which have discredited the positions of frats and have given her good reason to complain. Ms. Borins' argum ents, however, equally discredit the anti-frat side. She w ants gender discrim ination eliminated in o rd er to end a scenario of male elitist drinking clubs that precipitate sexual vio lence. This is understandable, and, with reference to the grievances about violence, commendable. However, she ostensibly espouses equality as a universal good, but selectively applies it, in the name of 'progress,' to the case of gender mem bership in frats. She has no reason to advocate equality in the case of sorority m em bership because sororities do not threaten the political o r physical condition of women in the way the frats do. Statements by the"McGill Sexual Assault Centre Director, Sylvia Di lorio, quoted in Ms. Borins'article, are furtherexam pies of loaded anti-frat rhetoric. Obviously, the most publicized sexual assault cases at McGill have been (and will continue to be) related to frats, sim ply because they are just that- frats, all-too-casy targets for feminists. She savs that gang rape is more likely' to occur at a frat party. More likely than where? C ert's? F.D.A.? She never says. Remarking that frats are more likely to be involved in gang rape is irresponsible and offensive. Indeed, I w ould be very interested in seeing Ms. Di Iorio's data-gathcring techniques and results. Institutional constraints within frats com pound the female igno rance of fraternities. Fraternities and sororities at McGill (with the exception of KRT) discrim inate on the basis of sex. Secondly, most of them proudly uphold their traditions of secrecy'. Such a two-fold

To the Editor: I think that Sara Borins has finally gone too far in prescribing her feminism to other women. I sat through this w eek's Tower Of Rubble w ondering who the hell she thinks she is for assum ing enlighten ment over all women w ho date or have friends in frats. Oh, I get it! If my friend falls in love with a guy who just happens to be in a frat, she is inadvertently supporting an inherently patriarchal system because of her association therein. No, Ms. Borins, she has fallen in love with a man w ho has fraternal allegiances. You are assum ing false consciousness. Furthermore, a w om an can be tolerant of her boyfriend's extra-curricular activities but does not have to support them. Personally, I do not advocate the IFC or the PMC in any way, however, Ms. Borins obviously took quotes out of context. I am certain that the IFC has much more reasonable explanations as to why it has exclusively male frats, as well as the obtuse. Perhaps it would be more accurate to sav that women should be cautious when attending frat parties: watch w hat vou drink, remain in total control of your situation, abide by your gut instincts. Rape (especially gang rape) does happen in frats more often than in other localities. One can not deny that they also occur in a nvall-heterosexua 1-male setting with a primal mindset. The last thing 1would like to do (since Ms. Borins did it herself in her editorial against a sorority m em ber who works at the Sexual Assault Centre) is affix an ad hominem. Isn't it ironic that she is obviously upper m iddle class, Toronto private school, white and

because Paglia says so. Comments like Paglia’s should not be construed as definitive because she is lumping millions of individuals into one group. While there is power in general izing for the sake of numbers, uniformity of opinion is less im portant than diversity. Women, like men, arc individuals, not categories. If the purpose of feminism is to change the attitudes of the white male mainstream and gain power and equality for all women, the refusal by some feminists to allow diversity or discussion only alienates the people who most need to be reached.

barrier is conducive, to neither com m unication nor co-operation with the larger university community. O utreach program s betw een w om en and frats, such as the one offered by the McGill Sexual A ssault Centre, plus program s such as dorm raps and the Walk Safe Network, work well tow ards bridging this tragic com m unication gap. Of course, simply talking openly one-on-one with a frat mem ber is o n co f the best ways of dispelling the pervading mutual distrust. D avid Ellison Arts U3

elected official representative of the feminist cause. Conse quently, broad statements by anyone that all women feel oppressed, alienated or aren't in touch with their bodies carry no weight. In a recent Time article, femi nist Camille Paglia claimed that Madonna’s "overt and almost pornographic sexuality" is a sign of a "maturing feminism" that has been "an extraordinary influ ence on women". Paglia speaks on behalf of women without benefit of their endorsement or agreement. Madonna as a role model? To some she may be a sexual liberator, but to others she is utterly ridiculous. Yet she is considered an "extraordinary in fluence" on all women, merely

M o re Letters to the E d ito r straight. The virtue of an u p p er class education may be interpreted to indicate that she too supports a form of patriarchy by association. I am tired of uppity feminism in the Babble that doesn 't address the concerns of most feminists rather than those of women who genuinely do not have to be feminists because their socio-economic status already privileges them. My politics do not speak for all women, nor should Ms. Borins'. You are no more enlightened than l or my friend who dates a fraternity member. M ary-M argaret Jones R eligious Studies U2

A n e e d f o r o p e n c o m m u n ic a t io n To the Editor: Re: Tower of Babble, March 3,1992 1 w ant to first state that 1 am a fraternity mem ber and I support gender equality, and see no need to justify either position. 1 believe that Sara Borins' attem pt to foster gen der equality is noble, but unfortunately by attacking the Greek system she misses the fundam ental problem which faces the sexes: comm unication. Women and men need to provide a forum for constructive dialogue in order to understand each other. When groups attack one another thev only serve to polarize each other, leading to the formation of stereotypes (with which w e areall too famil iar) and an environm ent for resentment. Can it be possible for men and women at McGill to work w ith fraternities (and other groups) to create a better understanding of the sexes? Should we really bccriticizing women who "tolerate these institutions, by walking into a

frat house?" Docs it seem unreasonable to hope that by having more w omen interact w ith fraternity members, the m isunderstanding with one another can be avoided? Forexample, the Sexual Assault C entrehasgivendiscussionsatour house on two occasions, with both groups greatly benefitting. The feminist m ovem ent cannot continue to serve the con verted. It m ust branch out and actively confront the problems w om en face today by dealing w ith men, especially men by w hom they feel most threatened. Indeed,Sara Borins sum s it u p when she states that "m ost women are able to recognize when somethi ng is sexist, bu t there is often a n inability to fol low u p the judgem ent with action." Some women (notably Danielle Bradshaw) have already begun to act. Where have you been, Sara? Come dow n from your Tower of Babble and let's try to w ork things out! A ndrew M. Costello G eography U3

No-calculation returns

To make things easier, we’ve designed two simpler tax returns that don’t have any calculations.

These optional returns are great for people with straightforward tax situations. If you’re under 65, you can use the “Short.” If you’re 65 or over, the “65 Plus” is for you. Whatever return you use, you should fill out only one.

If you will be moving, write the new address on your return, or if you don’t know it yet, please call us to let us know as soon as you can so we can update your file.

Another important detail is attaching all the slips and receipts that support your claims for credits and deductions. If any are missing, your return may get held up while we contact you for the information.

Lots of people fill out their tax return with great care, only to miss details that can make all the difference. For example, if your address is incomplete or incorrect, your refund could be delayed or sent to the wrong place.

A little s e a s o n i n g I've alw ays had a tendency to be in the w rong place at the w rong time. An uncanny knack to be standing beneath the falling anvil, if vou will. I was hardly surprised then, when the reclassification ker fuffle emerged at the daw n of my term as Tribune sports editor. The 1991 -92 season has been everything but a fairy-tale cam paign. McGill athletics w as dis tinguished bv frustrated players and support staff, button-lipped adm inistrators, and yawning gulfs of com m unication from the very outset. N ot quite the stuff of feel-good stories and happy endings. but isn't this w hat the b u d ding, young journalist craves? Controversy, confrontation and generalized dirt? N ot this cowboy. By far, I'm more of a sports fan than a budding-young-anything. And it is as a sports fan first that I've m andated 1991 /9 2 's Tribune Sports coverage to a broadly based format. As far as 1see it, the topicality of a sport or interest in a team 's season has little or nothing to do with adm inistrative backing. Ac cordingly, that's the way you have been seeing it in the sports pages of the McGill Tribune for the past 8 months. Unfortunately, funding and recognition has a whole kit to do with the success and longevity of a team, or a least it's supposed to. Some of the most tenacious com petition to come out of the Currie Gym nasium this year has been of the market variety, as the excommunicated scrambled to buoy their program m es in a storm of financial strife.

Phj/sical Graffiti BY PA U L C O L E M A N

Sure, it's.hard times all over, especially on this cam pus, but the McGill sports coverage market is a great deal more forgiving. Nobody can om inously wield cam pus sports coverage within such an im potent medium as this. The most threatening ideology presently hanging over McGill athletics is a steady diet of the staple sports. Meanwhile, I've been criticized for bowing to chronic complainers, told that nobody wants to read about anything but football and hockey, and that I've wasted valuable space on lowly clubs and w om en's sports. Regardless of the accounting acrobatics, gym space allocation and categorization atop the hill, this paper caters to sportsfans, not to adm inistration fans. There is no m andate here to m irror the policy of the Athletics Board. Media cov erage and funding are tw o differ ent animals. Tn/iwric sports writers cover sports at McGill, not some sports at McGill. The policy here is 'no policy'. In the event that such a scarcity of resources necessitates one, a for mula may be struck. This year, at least, Tribune readers have been kept abreast of all the perform ances who wear the Red and White. Maybe this time, for once, my tim ing isn't that bad after all. It's just the place part that needs a little work.
