Feds leave frosh unlubricated by Judy HoIIands Imprint 8taff The Federation of Students’ decision to not include small packages of lubricant gel with the condoms in frosh kits has left the Sexuality Resource Cetitre well lubricated and confused, Early in August, Al Wadley and Lynn Acri, co-ordinators of the Sexuality Resource Centre, along with Peter Myers from the Health and Safety Resource Net work and Dave Empey of the AIDS Awareness Commission, approached the Feds to suggest that a package of lubricant accompany the condoms in the frosh kits. Wadley says using a lubricant with condoms decreases the risk of breakage and increases sensation, which could encourage more students to use condoms. Overall, he says lubricants help to further protect people from pregnancy and STDs. The Feds initially approved the request and agreed to help cover part of the cost. Thirtyfive hundred small packages were ordered, at a cost of seven cents each, for a total of $245. Two weeks later, Wadley was informed by Federation of Students that the lubricant would not be included in the frosh kits after all. “At the time I was disappointed,” Wadley commented, “but I recognize that people have strong views regarding sexuality.” Tim Collins, vice-president (operations and finance) and Dave McDougall, the orientation coordinator, told Wadley that they had received extreme objections about ‘inclusion of the lubricant from over 25 people. He was told some people objected te it as they felt lubricant promotes homosexual behaviour, and others that it d@es not benefit Lesbians. He addressed /

these concerns in a letter to the editor, published in this issue. It was Wadley’s understanding that the Feds changed their minds because of these objections. “It seemed to me their major concern was avoiding a controversial situation.” When asked about the reversal latef, Tim Collins said the condoms in the frosh kits were already lubricated. He said the’ lubricant which was ordered by the Aids Awareness Commission was not spermicidal, and that if it had been they would have included it. Collins said they felt frosh would “abuse” the tubes oflubricant, adding that, “it wasn’t the people complaining that was my biggest concern, it was that students were aware of what they are getting, because if you spend that much money on something, you want to make it a good product .” The frosh kits do contain pampWets explaining how to use both condoms and lubricant. The packages-already ordered will be distributed from the Sexuality Resource Centre, and during a sexual awareness week planned for early fall, when the Feds are trying to get “Sex with Sue”, the QIOT radio show in which Sue gives sexual advice over the phone. The Feds plan to distribute spermicidal gel with condoms in next year’s frosh kits. Collins said he thought, there would be “too much abuse (of the lubricant) in the first year. With long term planning, it will make .it more effective.” , According to Walter Wilson, education director of Aids Committee for Cambridge, Kitchener-Waterloo and Area (ACCKWAj, the Feds should have included lubricant with the condoms in the frosh kits. “Con-

dom failure is caused by improper use’, and improper lubrication is a major problem,” he told Imprint. Proper condom use includes putting some lubricant inside in the tip and also lubricating the outside, Wilson explained that extra lubrication increases sensitivity and pleasure for both partners. He emphasized the need to change negative feelings about using condoms to help promote safe sex practices. Most important is that extra lubrication protects against condom breakage and thus protects people from STDs, particularly AIDS, both Wilson and Wadley stressed. When asked if it was a good idea for Feds to include lubricant. in next year’s frosh kits, Wilson responded: “Yes, next year is fine. But what about this year? ,Are this year’s students not important enough to be educated to prote.ct themselves? This is a big opportunity for the Federation of Students to show that they care.” Concerning spermicidal lubricant, Wilson had some serious reservations. He said this type of lubricant is very difficult to find in Ontario. He would rather see the Feds promoting something more’available to students. Wadley was unable to find spermicidal lubricant in any of the several drugstores he checked. Wilson said spermicidal lubricant is most often bought in large tubes. “Can you imagine a girl going to Fed Hall trying to fit this large tube in her purse? It is not very discreet .” Spermicidal foams, used in combination with a condom for contraceptive purposes, are more effective than lubricant, Wilson stated.

Paper recycling BY Judy Hollands Imprint staff The university has made a minor step forward in its recicling efforts. Starting in September, Plant Operations will extend its fine paper recycling program, while plans for recycling of pop cans, glass, and nedspaper are no further ahead than they were last November. Currently UW separates fine paper (which includes bond, stationary, computer printout paper, photocopier paper, tablet sheets and white envelopes without windows) from other wastes. Rudy Molinary of Plant Operations explained that whereas before they were focusing on high output areas, “we are now zeroing in on individual offices.” The new fine paper recycling effort is run on a voluntary basis. Departments which want to participate request boxes for individuals so they can deposit their recyclable paper in a main white box in their area. The white boxes are collec.ted and taken to Central Stores, where they are taken away by a contractor for processing.

expanded

Meanwhile’, . other recyclable waste produced on campus -. over 110 tons a year -continues to be dumped tit local landfill sites, Plant Operations and Laidlaw Waste Systems Ltd., are still trying to work out a campus recycling system. According to Rudy Molinary, the main problem is finding funding for the program. Efforts to implement a recycling system at UW have been underway since February 1988, when the Waterloo Public Interest Research Group (WPIRG) began campus-wide recycling. The WPIRG program ended when plant operations informed them that Laidlaw Waste Systems Ltd., the company holding the waste disposal contract with UW, was interested in recycling. It has been nearly a year since the WPIRG program was stopped, and the university is no closer40 implementing a system to replace it. The university’s tardiness has frustrated many groups and individuals on campus, causing some people to set up their own recycling projects, The Turnkeys are running newspaper, tin and, glass recycling in the Campus Centre, using the same bins WPIRG used

to use. In contrast to other recycling at UW, chemical waste recycling is established and working well. Scott Nicol is departmental manager and senior storage keeper in charge of treating and packaging all chemical waste generated on campus (that does not include radioactivq. waste). Nicol explained, “we take chemicals from originating labs who have no further use for them and if they are reuseable, match them up with other labs which need them.” This effort reduces the amount of waste which must be disposed of, and also reduces the amount of chemicals the university has to buy. They also distill solvents to make them reusable and encourage waste segregation (the separation of non-ch.lorinated chemicals from ones cojntaminated by chlorine). Their efforts reduce the total volume of chemicals which must be incinerated. The chemical waste recycling program was started six years agd, and has improved and expanded ever since. They now classify and safely ship almost all chemical waste produced on campus.

The growing concern on campus for getting students to make informed choices in sexual matters has prompted an imaginative alternative for this year’s orientation week. . Instead of the traditional “sex talk” given by the nurses at Health Services, frosh will be treated to a play comtiissioned especially for them on the subjects of sexual awareness, birth controt, pregnancy, sexual harassment, date rape, sexually transmitted diseases, AIDS, and alcohol abuse. 5 The Twin Cities Theatre Company was commissioned this summer by the Federation of Students, Student Life Committee, Dean of Students and Health and Safety to write Single and Sexy, a play specific to .the students of Waterloo focusing on the issues ,and choices that are characteristic of being a fro&, a *student and sexually active, “It has been a lot of futi,” says Wendy Farrant, the facilitator for the company. “We’ve approached the play from a collective point of view, This has allowed us to draw from our personal experiences in order to create material for the script. “The eight actors in the compariy have developed characters who represent types of people who could be at risk in sexugl situations because of their backgrounds, personalities and experiences. Since these subjects tend to be considered socially we’ve incorpoemt;arrassin& ratdd as much comedy as we can to break the ice - but we cbnstmtly have to . be aware of the

a-nd ‘sery? fine line between being truthful without or -. - being _-overbearing being funny without saying anything.” Farrant adds, “Learning about sex should be entertaining, As a group the collective has made the encounters with these issues positive, optimistic, ,and informative. There are always choices and options in life and it’s the right to know about ’ individual’s them and to exercise them before a crisis evolves. The only thing we don’t give are the answers.

you have to come to them yourself, “Hopefully our most substantial accomplishment will be to encourage communication. One of the strongest directives that Health Services gave us was to show that communication can clear up a lot of misconceptions that can lead to mistakes.*’ Single and Sexy is being shown in the Theatre of the Arts on Thufsdav, September ? at lo:30 a.m. Everyone is welcome.

COMMENT

Exploring’ the . politics of sex

’ .

Lubricant seems to have turned out to be too hot to handle for the Federation of Students, Plans to include packages of it in the frosh kits have beep scrapped - after they had given it the go-ahead, and the Sexuality Resouice Centre had ordered 3500 tubes of the slippery stuff. Imprint was unable to establish the exact reason for scrapping it. The Feds started out saying that they had received too many complaints about it. They are now saying that because it was not a spermicidal lubricant, they did not feel it was necessary, as the condoms were already lubricated. However, information from the Sexuality Resource Centre, the Waterloo Regional Health Unit, the Ontario Ministry of Health, and the AIDS Committee of Cambridge, KitchmrWaterloo and Area all confirmed- that: 1) the more lubricant you use with acondom the better,, as it reduqes chance of breakage, and 2) if you want a spermicide, a foam is recommended over a lubricant. Did the Feds research their decision before they made it? It appears not. VPDF Tim ColIins mentioned the lubricant’s cost as a rea- 4 son for canning it, saying that if ‘tyou spent that muchmoney on something, you want to make it a good product.” First off, the lubricant was not expensive. At seven cents a tube for 3500 tubes, that only amounts to $245. Furthermore, health organizations have pointed out that spermicidal lubricant, which the Feds deem a “good product” (Collins said they would have used it if‘they could get it] is not a good-product. It’s hard to find, an irritant to some women, potentially harmful for anal intercourse, and not anywhere near as effective as spermicidal foam in preventing pregnancies. So why the interest in it? Perhaps they needed to find what would appear to be a rational,. concrete reason for dumping something they expected would be controversal. There was a big uproar when condoms were put in the fresh kits four year? ago. Were the Feds reluctant to deal with a potential lubricantuproar? Is the idea of making sex more pleasurable too much for them even though lubricant aIs0 makes it safer? Apparently, the Feds received complaints that including lubricant in the frosh kits would promote homosexual behaviour. It .could only be perceived as promoting homosexuality to those who are uninformed as to its use, These people are probably the ones who should receive the lubricant, along with the pamphlet that explains its benefits to anyone who uses condoms. So frosh, if you want to be sexually active, but are concerned about pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases, drop by the Sexuality Resource Centre in the Campus Centre for your sample tube of lubricant. They’ll look out for you even if the Feds won’t. Flew Macqueen

Although I don’t know what percentage of lubricant is currently purchased by homosexuals, I do know that lubricant has important potential benefits for heterosexuals. I expect that the majority of new students are heterosexual, and therefore the heterosexual populatiori would have benefitted most from the inclusion of lubricant. Another objection was made by students who identified themselves as lesbians. They stated that putting lube in the frosh kits was sexist -lubricant benefits male homosexuals, but not lesbians.

To the editor,

in the section

Last year, we published a number of editorials. However, with such a diverse staff, it is difficult to publish editorials that truly reflect the opinion of the paper. We have also found readers prefer signed pieces. Therefore we have recently been publishing comment pieces. Cornmeat pieces are signed editorials. They reflect the opinion of their authors, not that of the whole staff. Columns are pieces that appear in each issue and address a particular topic. Some are opinion piecesi and some are published more for their information value. Currently we publish the columns The Sexual Errquirer, To Your Health, The Voice of Treason, Focus on Feminism, and WPIRG. In order for Imprint to publish a column, we ask that writers bring us five column submissions. We post these in our office for a week, and at the following staff meeting, discuss the column with the writer. Voting staff members (determined by their contributions to the paper) then vote on whether or not to accept the column for publication. The material that appears in the columns is not dictated by us; but “sanctioned” by us, so to speak. The opinions expressed in the column are those of the author, not the newspaper. We occasionally bring columns in for reviews if we feel they are not fulfilling our expectations, or becoming problematic. I am sure you are all familiar with letters to the editor. If something gets you going, write us! However, don’t forget that letters to Imprint cannot exceed400 words without special exception by the editor, Fleur Macqueen. They must be typed, doublespaced, submitted by 6:OO p.m. the Monday prior to publication, and include your name, discipline, and phone number. You can also e-mail us letters (we prefer it!) at Imprint@watmath, bring them in in ASCII format on floppy disks, or type them here in our office, located in room MO of the Campus Centre. If something in the foru,m pages gets you going, don’t blame Imprint as a whole 2 we’re only trying to give people a forum for If something bothers you, write or expression and discussion. come in and see us.

I am beginning with

the outbursts

to get fed up of feministrc

accusations that I have been reading in Imprint lately. I have tolerated Michelle Blais’ writing recently but I feel that the letter entitled “Smut” (July 281, by Ann Race, was not completely necessary. I have seen the video that offended her and, quite frankly, I think it is humorous. The barechested women, [and man, as ‘she omitted), had their breasts blanked out of the video (unless she saw a different version than 1). In my opinion this video is merely mocking censorship. If Miss Race was familiar with the band’s music, she would realize that they are more inclined to this type of attitude than one of sexism. I realize that sexism can be a problem. I ofi;ln wonder though, if these feminists have a severe case of tunnel vision, desperately searching for sexism in everything? All of my female family members and friends are strong, independent women who are unafraid of their femininity or when it shows. They need not search in vain for laccusations against men to justify their . strength or hide their femininity: Il. Roberts 4A engineering (7%&e

I was under the impression that they had a lower risk of getting STDs. If I am underestimating this risk, perhaps we could work together next year to provide a package that would promote safe sex among student of all sexual orientations. I find it unfortunate that the values’, attitudes and opinions of approximately 25 people were

imposed upon 3,500 other students. Maybe some of the Iubricant would have been used by male homosexuals - is that a sufficient reason that heterosexuals can’t be encouraged to have safer sex? Al Wadley Coordinator, Centre

Resource

What is a person? To the editor, “Women shall have equal rights and responsibilities as men” First Unitarian Congregation, Toronto, 1645. As the legal minds of Canada struggle to define and/or-create a new person from a zygote (first stage of a new organism developing from the union of a spermatozoa and an ovum], each of us have a vested interest in the outcome. In law a person is defined as “any human being, corporation or body politic having legal rights and duties.” Canadian women gained this distinction in 1918, federally. Provincially, Saskatchewan and Alberta led the way by granting the vote to women in 1916. Ontario soon followed in 1917, but sadly Quebec was the last of the provincial jurisdic’tions to grant the franchise to women - 1940. (Unhappily the Equal Rights Amendment to the American Constitution is still being struggled for). Lest we take these rights for granted, we can irote that until recently, family law in Ontario defined a wife as a “chattle”. Suggesting many duties and responsibilities but few rights. No matterhow much a woman and her partner look forward to the birth of their child, the fact is that from zygote to well into puberty following birth this human organism is a parasite. Prenatally completely dependent on another person for its health and well-being. Postnatally, a child is completely depend&t upon the- intelligence, vitality and support systems that its parents and society are able and willing to provide. To create a person legally from a prenatal organism would have horrendous implications and consequences.

Imagine

you

will this scenario. Anyone involved in procuring or performing an abortion could then be charged with murder or as an accessory to murder. (The way it was!)

Further, a confirmed pregnancy wduld have to be recognized somehow in the nation’s vital statistics. A government agent (a doctor) would have to allocate a number to ensure statistical control. Would a woman having a miscarriage or s$ontaneous abortion have to prove she did not interfere in any way with the health and well-being of this new person? Our various governments having created a new person, dependent on the body politic, could not in conscience, deny an allowance to a pregnant women (zygote rights). Of course in order to ensure the rights of the fetus, bureaucratic regulations could control every waking and sleeping moment of the woman’s and her partner’s existence. hqloreover, a miscarriage would have to be treated as a death, with a funeral service aind formal burial or cremation. Pregnant women would have to be issued dual passports. The bureaucratic nightmares we now have are nothing compared to what could follow. Legalism as being promoted by so-called “Christians” is still based

on a patriarchal-definition

of the nature of deity, i.e. God is male. Union of divine male and mortal’ female to produce superior being.

Few of us want

to see a des-

return to oligarchy and/or potic totalitarianism as norm. We have voluntarily vested too much in the birth democratic and socially just ciety we call Canada.

The awful.truth To the editor, In reference “Tunnel vision: (Imprint+

to your story myth or reality?”

July 283, I would

like to

comment. I am “very pleased” that you discovered that the tunnel rumours are false. Thank you for destroying one of the few “legends” this young university has. I suppose that when you found out there was no Santa Claus, you took great pleasure in telling all your friends and spoiling ilt

for them too? Why don’t you spend your time looking for kids with missing teeth, to tell them there’s no tooth fairy, instead of trying to wreck the “sinking library” story or some other”frosh tales”. Sometimes it’s a lot more fun not knowing the truth. Don’t wreck it for the frosh! Greg Gerard Past Chairman V2 Orientation

Twenty years ago this week (as reported in the Chevron): Radio Waterloo (several months short of becoming CKMS) moves from the Campus Centre to the Bauer warehouse at the north end of campus. Chemical engineering leads the way in giving students a voice on the departmental chairman selection committee. T&I years ago this week: UW President Burt Matthews ( so that’s who that building is named for) accepts plans to build a new, $1.7 million environmenta4 studies building. The architecture program is slated to occupy the new digs. The Residential Tenancies Act is scheduled to come into effect in lOctober to patch loophtiles in the Landlord Tenant Act and the Rent Review Act. Student rights are expected to be strengthened. ip six week trial begins on a university bus system that will ferry students between Bauer warehouse (near Sunnydale), UW and Wilfred Laurier. Five years ago this week: A big public speaking coupe is announced: G. Gordon Liddy (of Watergate fame) is booked to speak in the PAC. - Fed President Tom Allison announces that “Federation Hall is a little behind schedule, but we are shooting to be open by the end of October.” (Good guess, Tom. It actually opened in December.)

BetheFIRBT to Write for Imprinf this ferrn!

I am writing to respond to Ann Race’s letter of July 28, entitled, “Smut .” Anti, on behalf of Federation Hall 1 would like to say that we are sorry you are offended by the video you saw on Thursday, July 13. Although I haven’t seen it personally,t aking your description as correct I would say that it is in poor taste. We subscribe to a video distributor that send us video releases every month which they compile, not what we would choose to buy. As manager I do not censor all the music and videos which we purchase, however I will make one observation,, generally the music in terms of lyrics, and videos in terms of pictures, are rampant with pictures that are offensive. Exploitation of women, men and children is not uncommon and the innuendo is quite obvious (i.e. Guns % Roses). However, if we put ours&es in the position of screening all music and videos that are deemed offensive we would have a difficult time filling a week’s worth of programming, Also I do not feel that censoring is part of our mandate in running Fed Hall 1 our job is to provide food, beverage, service and entertainment awording to the wants and desires of our customers. We do not put ourselves in a position to determine what we feel they should be morally exposed to. Here at Fed Hall the D, J.‘s have a sheet that speople use to request a particular song to be played. When there are numerous enough’ requests the D,J,‘s play it. The request list also works in reverse. Chuck McMullan Manager, Fed Hall

The Voice of Treason The Frosh Primer See the happy parents cry. Boo hoo hoo. They have brought little Sally and little Johnnie to University. Silly, silly parents, Their babies have grown up. Yes, they have grown up and turned into frosh. Better luck with the next kid, Mr. Jones. See young fresh. See frosh drinkSee frosh get kicked out of the Bombshelter after drinking only two beers. Yes, little ones, the dry days are back. The fear of law suits [not to be confused with birthday suits] has made campus bars afraid to give you alcohol for the purposes of intoxication. As if you liked it for the taste! Silly, silly Feds. But have no fear, .I dan heip. There are many liquor stores (and for those of you who haven’t learned to walk yet, liquor delivery services) who will sell you cheaper booze than the pubs, guaranteed, and they will sell you lots and lots. See frosh with lots and lots. See frosh get drunk. See frosh stay drunk. See frosh miss class. Silly, silly fresh. See frosh go home at Christmas and never come back. (Except for the nephew of the head of Admissions] Oh, well. Plenty more where he came from. See young frosh frolic during frosh week. See cute froshette meet nice fresh, See cute froshette take nice frosh home. Who is this rugged GQtype frosh? Why, he is Derek, Cricket’s friend and loyal companion. He is down visiting from Genawa City U. Silly, silly froshette, Oh well, it

might grow back. And I might be elected the next Pope. See the frosh all get friendly. Touch, touch, touch. See the frosh all get spots in their lower regions, Itch, itch, itch. Golly, what a silly sight. See the condoms at the Sexuality Resource Centre. Whoops, too late for Spots! It looks like it just fell off! At least he didn’t die. Better luck next time at Fed Hall. Well it’s class time and our poor frosh has fallen asleep in the second row. Silly boy. He is within the profs throwing range. That’s okay, though, Health and Safety can help your bruised head. I don’t know who can help your bruised ego. Next time sit in the back row or bring your hockey mask and helmet. Say now, silly frosh, don’t forget to buy your very own underground hall passes. You won’t want to leave home without it. And what about your elevator passes for the libraries? And what about that swamp land, I hear it’s going for a steal! And please! Little boys and little girls, pay attention and avoid the confusion. G+L.IL.O.W. stands for Gay and Lesbian Liberation of Waterloo or some such thing so let’s all be aware and full of knowledge so that we can all live and let live. Well, that’s all for this week, I hope this primer will help you through the next few years or the next couple of days, whichever’comes first. See you soon, kiddies. And remember to stay away from the guy in the clown suit even if his lollipops are free.

t/VPIRG - THE ENVIRONMENTAL/SOCIkL ‘USTICE CONSCIENCE OF CAMPUS

FOCUS The Waterloo Public Interest Research Group (WPIRG) is a student funded and directed research and educational organization. We actively investigate current environmental and social problems and mobilize the resources of the university and the community toward their resolution. The organization strives to act as a bridge between the campus and the surrounding community. WPIRG empowers the public to work for social change by heightening awareness of the problems faced b!f our society, and by increasing knowledge of successful strategies for dealing with such problems. Students play a key role in working with local citizens to improve our community. WPIRG has steadily grown in visibility in the community and throughout the university. Popular education programs organized by WPIRG feature workshops, speakers, film series, conferences, popular theatre, and special forums. Staff and student volunteers frequently address classes, community organizations, labour-councils, government bodies, and university associations. ACTIVITIES On campus WPIRG plays a dual educational role: stimulating student interest in current environmental, technological’and social issues, and helping students turn concern into action. WPIRG seeks to understand the root causes of unnatural environmental imbalances and social inequalities. Through research that is penetrating and easy to understand, discerning analyses of crucial issues are provided for the general public. We’ve researched and produced major publications, including a landmark book on acid rain, a thematic text called The Social Impacts of Computerization, A Citizen’s Guich? to Toxic Waste Disposa/+ and most recently A Citizen’s Guide to Waste Reduction and Packaging. Public Interest Reseafch (our middle name) means getting information into the hands of thle general public. Students take part in research projects aimed directly at helping to overcome a social injustice or environmental problem. Our research projects for this year will focus on food hsues and excess packaging. If you would like to work on a public interest research project, contact Kara at WPIRG. For the past 15 years, WPIRG has been building up its Resource Library with a wealth of books, files, tapes, and magazines on many issues including acid rain, waste management issues, energy, community development, native peoples, forestry issues, and water quality. WPIRG is currently comptiterizing its resource centre and obtaining access to information data bases with other environmental, social justice, peace and labour groups. If you would like to contribute to the development of your resource centre by cataloging, filing, and helping other students access information, contact Cal at WPIRG.

PARTICIPATION WPIRG provides students with the opportunity to get involved. We actively encourage volunteers to take part in all aspects of our 1 programs. Participation in WPIRG can complement your usual work/study load in a comfortable’and meaningful way. You chose the degree of involvement, and at the same time work on issues that promote community interests. WPIRG provides you with the opportunity to organize educa-. tional events for fellow students and the community in our workgroups. Social justice and environmental Workgroup members select topic eventd, speaker&and arrange audio visual equipment. They also prepare press releases, poster& display tables, and handle other logistic details. Talk to Colleen at WPIRG for information on how to get involved., ACT

How many HIV-infected people do you think there are in Wat erloo region ? Half a dozea, twenty, maybe fifty? Try three hundred! According to Larry MacLean, executive director of the AIDS Committee of. Cambridge, KitchenerWaterloo and Area (ACCKWAI, this figure is a conservative estimate. ACCKWA was founded by an AIDS sufferer in 1985, and was run completely by volunteers until it was awarded a grant by the Dntario Ministry of Health six honths ago. At that time, it opened its office at 886 Queen Boulevard in Kitchener, ‘and hired two fulltime employees. They recently hired a fundraiser using money from the Trillium Fund, a foundation which redistributes unclaimed lottery wins to non-profit organizations. ACCKWA plans to use some of its funds to help build an assisted housing project for HIVinfected people. This type of housing project w-ould be unique in Ontario outside of Toronto. This project will give people with AIDS a place to live, and assistance according to how far the disease has progressed. Another major project in the works is an assessment of educational needs of this are& allowing ACCKWA to tailor its programs to the needs it finds.

ACCKWA members are also training volunteers to work one on one with AIDS patients in a type of buddy system: running a support group for people with HIV, another for partners, family and friends, and one for the volunteers who work directly with AIDS sufferers.

A three month pass will now cost students $110.06 ingtead of the regular $130.00a This is the second year the city of Waterloo has given a $10 subsidy for student buss passes.

Linking students past, present and future .

by Josephine Rezo and MelindaAnn Pollard Student Alumni Aesociation The Student Alumni Associatiun (SAA] is a student ruti, volunteer organization affiliated with the Office of Alumni Affairs. The SAA’s mandate is to “link students past, present and future” and it is committed to obtaining a “higher quality of student life.” ’ The majority of volunteers are students in their first to fourth year of studies. We do call upon alumni to help out at events we participate iti, but these alumni originally became members of the SAA when they were students and have maintained their ties with the organization long after graduation. The SAA was the brainchild of Joy Robertg, director of Alumni Affairs. Roberts hired Blair Davies, a fourth year engineering student, during his fall 1984 workterm to *help “create.” the SAA. Davies set up meetings with an advisor from Alumni Affairs, faculty deand, alumni representatives, and members of the administration and student societies to determine how best the SAA could serve the needs of the campus. By the end of its first term in 1984, about 20 students had joined the organization. Traditionally, the SAA participates in every major event on campus.

During the last weeks of July, there were at least three incidents of indecent exposure on the UW campus, which escalated to sexual assault. In the first incident, a man wearing seethrough pantihose exposed himself to two women. In the two following incidents, the man attempted to grab passing women. The incidents took place near the bush areas of the Minota ’ Hagey graduate student residence, where parking Lot “C” is. The suspect is a white male; between :20-25 years of age; between 5’10” and 62” tatl; with a tanned complexion. His hair colour has been described as blond, brown, and black. The suspect wore women’s clothing during the of fences, such as pantihose, a red skirt and a brassiere under a dark Tshirt. There were three reported incidentd, which means there may have been even more. The last reported incident occurred on July 31. >. UW Police are advising students nalt to enter the Minota Hagey area alone. Anyone with any information is asked to call UW Police at 888-4911. UW Police also want to remind people to report any incidents occurring on campus. Last tern& a man confessed to 15 separate counts of exposing himself on campus. However, as the police only had seven complaints on file, they were only able to charge him for those seven. ,

.WelcOme to; UW sports The University of Waterloo has been recognized throughout Canada for its academic prestige for many years now. But what many of you first year students may not be aware of is that Waterloo is also known for its many interuniversity athletic achievements. Since the start of varsity competition at UW in the fall of 1958, Waterloo has collected many CIAO, OUAA, and OWIAA titles in both individual and team sports. There are the great memories of Waterloo’s spectacular CIAU hockey win of 1974 and the many trips to the Canadian championships for Warrior basketball. Last season, th% Warrior volleyball team came agonizingly close to a CIAU title, but settled for fourth overall. in the nation. The Athena squash team captured the OWIAA crown in 1988-89 and the Warrior rugby squad took the bridesmaid role in the OUAA championships. So some of the people in your classes are also athletes that you will see on the court, ice, field, snow, river, or in the pool. The Athletic Department at UW encourages the elite student athletes to try out for a spot on one or more of its varsity teams. Training camp and/or tryouts for most of the fall teams starts in early or mid September. Most coaches have done extensive scoutirig searches for freshman athletes. But there are many talented sports enthusiasts that are missed in the search and later make the team roster. These athletes are called “walk-ons” and are not uncommon in Waterloo sports. First-year students are encouraged to try out for their favorite sport. A list of team meetings appears on this page. If you follow sportd but do not want an active role in these competitive sports, come out and support the teams at their home games as one of the UW fans. You can take in all the action by using your Athletic Season Ticket (which is included with your ID card stickers when you pay your fees]. It entitles you to admission to all Waterloo interuniversity home games up until the playoff 5. There is the exciting Warrior Naismith Basketball Classic tournament in November, at which over 6,000 of the Waterloo faithful fill the PAC to see Waterloo’s greatest spectator sport. Also, any game in any sport between Waterloo and Western is an unmatched rivalry in Ontario. Perhaps playing or watching varsity sports is not your ball of wax, but you still want to participate in a sport on a less competi-. tive level. There is an endless list of sports, instructional or recreational programs, and clubs in Waterloo’s cam us recreation. Pick up a campus recreation brochure for detai Ps. Also, we have a slogan:here at Imprint Sports: “Those who don’t play, write.” Why not betiome an Im rfnt s orts writer or photographer? There are many sports to c R oose Prorn, so come down to Campus Centre room 140 and sign up early.

When the graduates of the class of ‘89 left this past spring, they left not only with degrees, but the honour of being the last students to see a Warrior football win as undergraduates. The memories may not be vivid, but the Waterloo Warriors beat the Toronto Varsity Blues on a rainy Saturday afternoon at Seagram Stadium on October 13, 1984. Since then, the Warriors have gone through 30 regular season games, some with scores that were agonizingly close, without a win. But the light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter. Head coach Dave “Tuffy” Knight, along with his assistants Chuck McMann and Ken Hussey, visited 125 high schools in Ontario this past spring to recruit rookies for this season. “It’s the best crop of rookies that we have had in the last two years,” said an enthusiastic McMann. Here is a uick rundown of the 1989 footba 9 1 units: Quarterback: With some experience behind him now, Brian Lenart will be the starting pivot and Mike Wright will be his backup once again. Waterloo also has depth with sophomore Andy Oliver and rookies Mat Radovan and David Sharp. Knight feels that this unit is much stronger than last year and, with a bit of donsistency, should capitalize more on offence. Runnin Backs: Knight has moved R alfback sensation Orville Beckford to the fullback position, joining veterans Gene

Chartier and Owen Earle, This move should strengthen this area to its maximum potential. With Beckford shuffled back and Dave Ropret moved to slotback, one would think that there would be big holes in the tailback spots. Not so. Freshman T.J. Diehl, a Port Credit native, was outstanding at tailback in high school. He will join second-year player 21;s Chartier in the starting Receivers: Knight is worried about how “green” the wide receivers are. Star receiver Kevin Dutcher will not be returning this season. Dutcher had nine receptions for 118 yards in 1988. Apart from veterans Paul Martin and Joe Jeffrey, this unit is almost all new players. Tight end seems to be ;a11 set with veteran Brian Rayner and Geoff Sansom. Size is the only concern here. Second-year slaver Craig McLennan has iho”wn great- improvement in camp over last year. He will join veteran Brian Abele and rookie Mike Sesek at slotback.. Offensive Line: For the first time in two years, this unit is showing some strength and size. Marshall Bingeman returns for a fourth season with Waterloo. Veteran Greg Daughton will also be valuable since he can play either guard or tackle effectively. Other vets vying for spots on the line are Jeff Smith, Ken Wilson, and Marc Lajeunesse. There are also rookies showing potential. Defensive Line: This crew looks stronger and finally has some depth. Mike Lane, Mark Yarmel, Henry Stachurski and Mark MacCormack are all returning.

Im ressive lineman Len Willems wi 1 challenge for a osit ion. Three ‘other rookies aP so look good. Linebackms: This is definitely the most superior group on the entire team. Two time all-Canadian Dave Shaw will anchor the defense ofice again. Solidifying the backfield are veterans Paul Kilby, Bob Casey, and Dave Brush, along with sophomores Jeff Lake, Ross DePalma, and Rob Proctor. Four rookies also look impressive. Smmlary: The secondary unit is a disappointment according to Knight. Two freshman hopefuls did not show up for training camp, leaving a gaping hole in this area. To add to this, Larry Vaughn and Bohdan Woschuk have graduated, and cornerback Paul Meikle broke his leg in the summer and may not e be 100 per cent. Veterans Rich Chen, Mafk Loisel, and Blair Greenly will try to solve the problems, -along with second-year players Paul Moffat, Steve Futyer, Scott Hyde, and Bill Campbell. Impressive rookie Lionel Felix may be the savior in this unit. Kicking: Peter Tchir had a banner year as place kicker last season and will return to the job in 1989. But, as. of yet, the Warriors have no punter and are in dire need of one. If you have any experience in this area or are maybe even a soccer player with a strong kicking foot, please notify coach Knight as soon as possible. For now, T.J Diehl and Mike Rymer will rotate the position. Overall, the team is much stronger than last year,’ especially on offence, due to the

mountain dangerous

Mountain bikes equipped with cantilever brakes are potentially hazardous, the product safety branch of Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada warns consumers, Cantilever brakes are a new system of brakes found on most mountain bikes in which each of two cables, one on either side of the tire, activates a brake pad through an arm connected to the fork of the bike. The two cables join into one main cable above the tire. Together the cables form an inverted “Y” above the tire. The rider activates the main cable through a brake lever located on the handlebars. The danger occurs if the two cables operating the front brakes shake loose from the main cable and catch the knobby tires used on these bikes. This could result in the bike stopping suddenly and its rider being hurled over the handlebars, risking serious injury. Racing bikes, on the other

bikes flaw

hand, are equipped with sidepull brakes. The hazard associated with cantilever brakes does not exist with these brakes. A failure of the single vertical cable which activates the sidepull brake pad calipers will not jam the wheel. Some Canadian bicycle manufacturers, in consultation with Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada, have agreed voluntarily to add a special restraining device to the front of mountain bike frames to prevent the brake cables jamming the wheels. The device could include a reflector at its front end. In the meantime, mountain bike owners are advised to take. their bikes to a bicycle shop where this device can be installed, The cost is only a few dollars and will ensure saferriding for mountain bike riders. For more information, please contact your nearest office of Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada.

Director of athletics

Totzke to-retire. after 33 years UW’s only director of athletics, Carl Totzke, wiI1 retire from his position on October 1, 1989. “I ve enjoyed my time here at Waterloo, but after 33 years I think it’s time to pursue other interests and alternatives that have been growing in importance,” said Totzke, 63, adding, “The athletics department has grown steadily, sometimes spectacularly, during the 60s and 70s when the university was also in a period of rapid expansion.”

A native of the K-W area, Totzke joined the staff at the University of Waterloo in 1957. An outstanding high school athlete, Totzke played football for Waterloo College and later the McGill University Redmen. He also played for the Kitchener Dutchmen for four years.

outstanding

athlete

Totzke served as head coach of the Warrior football team from 1958 to 1976 with a 27-45-l record. He was also director of athletics on a part-time basis

while writing sports for the K-W Record. Currently, Totzke is coach of the Waterloo golf team. During his tenure at UW, Totzke has used his administrative skills in many areas of endeavour. He has occupied administrative positions in the Ontario-Quebec Athletic Association, the Ontario Universities Athletic Association and the Canadian Interuniversity. Athletic Union. He has served as president of the CIAU longer than any other individual (197% 73 and 1984-86). “Overall, I think that we’ve been able to make a very positive contribution to the university and the campus life of the stu-

dent,” commented Totzke. “From the beginning our goals have been to encourage a broad program of activities for all the students from the beginner to the

a positive contribution elite athlete. Currently there are about 38 interuniversity sports and from 70 to 80 activities in the campus recreation program,” he said. UW athletes have brought 74 provincial and national championships home to Waterloo. “We’ve had some excellent coaches ,and some very compe-

tent administrative personnel and I think the department and our programs are in good shape. My moving on will allow for further growth and development within the department.” Adding to his lengthy list of duties, Totzke served as convener for mlany clinics, conferences and competitions both locally and nationally. He participated in numerous international excursions by CIAU athletes including student games in Turin ‘70, Moscow ‘73, Israel ‘77, Lake Placid ‘80, andJapan ‘87 to name a few. Totzke’s repiacement will be named before the end of September.

money& Columbia playing fields will be busy over the next eleven days as Athena soccer team hopefuls take to the fields, with tryouts starting on Saturday, September 2, and continuing through to Monday; September 11. The team will be without some familiar faces due to graduation and workterms, including last season’s co-captains Sarah Brown and Linda Hartjes. The returning, veterans have already attended a weekend training camp on August 26-27 and look in shape and ready to play. “We are expecting the team to be quicker this season and we have several good first-year forwards coming in who should add more scoring punch,” commented head coach Lynn Hoyles. Two exhibition games have been scheduled. The first is on Sunday, September 10 at ll:Ob a.m. against the University of Guelph on Columbia Field 2. The second pre-season game will be played at Varsity Stadium against the University of Toronto on Thursday, September 14 at 8:00 p.m. So come and cheer the Athenas as they start their fifth season of competition in the exciting OWIAA West.

Bars n Pubs

pretty easily

Graduate House - Definitely worth shelling out $15 for a membership if you’re an undergrad - or sucking up to a grad student to sign you in. The cheapest beer on campus {maybe even in town), a cozy atmosphere for discussin’ and philosophizin’, and hordes of acoustic guitar-wielding folkies on the weekends. We Imprinters personally recommend their ample pitchers of sangria.

The Husther Hotel - Hot wing& pizza, homemade beef, almost ten big TV screens, and even peelers during the day, all in one building in Uptown Waterloo next door to the Princess Cinema. Formerly the Kent Hotel, the Huether is a personal favourite hangout and meeting place; check out the Brew Pub Museum and restaurant for a good and affordable menu, the Speakeasy billiards and games rooni, and the main floor for a real salt-ofth’e-earth bar atmosphere. heard too Flipper’s - Haven’t much from this notorious grungehole lately, but in past months and in its former incarnation as The Backdoor, this hole in the wall has played host to countless bands, poetry readings, and sundry other events of an artistic bent. The Highlight Club - Haven’t heard too much from this place lately, eithef, but worth checking into for Kitchener’s answer to The Bamboo if it’s reggae, hiphop, or dance music craving. At 220 King East in Kitchener. Stages - This is K-W’s most overtly high-tech dance/singles club with a more than ample supply of chrome, acid-washed denim, and self-applied chemical& where the hemlines are tight and the morals are loose, but they occasionally have marginally fun theme nights and decent bands - you can count on Blue Rodeo a couple of times a vear. On Kinn Street in downtown Kitchen&

‘1, 1989

Pop The Gator - Ever wonder just where those bars are that are always on beer commercials where everyone is going wild and whooping it up? Well, one of them is on Queen Street South in Kitchener and bills itself, quite justifiably, as Canada’s Blues Hotspot, featuring the greatest names in soul and blues, including the perennial favourites Buddy Guy and Otis Clay. Hoodoo home Blues moved Hoodoo back bands

Lounge - Formerly the of the Southern Ontario Association before it to Pop The Gator, the Lcunge is apparently in business with rock every weekend.

Hotel Waterloo - More infamously known as The ‘LOO’, the Hotel Waterloo houses a marginally classy restaurant, Chadd’g, and Taps, the watering‘hole favoured by Laurier students, jocks whose chest measurements (in inches] exceeds their IQ& and their attendant women. But the booze is cheap and it’s

Phil% Grandson’s Place - Sandwiched between Marty’s and Stanley’s Burgers is Waterloo’s stab at an alternative music club; surprisingly enough it works, even if there are a few too many jocks and black-clad wannabee gothics during the school year. Try out their extensive menu, but go for the music on the weekends and watch Imprint’s Hip Happenings section to tiee who:s playing Wednesdag nights - the last year has featured the likes of The Dream Syndicate, The Cruesomed, and Nomeansno. The Grand If you have too much class to set foot in the Doll’s Houst?, yet another local strip-joint, you can go around the building to Huggy’s, an otherwise run-of-the-mill, tawdry singles bar except for the hilarious tribute bands and the soonto-be-resurrected (we hope) Tuesday night Amateur Strip Night where you can say “hi” to our favourite waitress, Pani, and perennial Amateur Strip champ, Jumpin’ Jack Flash. Highlands Anyone who, listens to 4107 has probably heard of “the Highlands in Cambridge.” Formerly “Ballingers”, many big names have played here including Iggy Pop, The Alarm and Northern Pikes, The Olde English Parlour - Emulating a British pub atmosphere, the Parlout, on King Street near Erb in Waterloo, is a place where you can play darts (remember to bring your own) and drink warn& dark beer by the mugful. It is expensive by student standards and attracts an older crowd. The Parlour has live entertainment which usually consists of someone playing a guitar and singing or someone playing the piano. The Bombshelter - University of Waterloo’s warhorse, The Bomber is the preferred alcove for a couple of beers (or pitchers] after (or instead of] class. Rock ‘n’ roll nights pack The Bomber every Wednesday and special events take place year-round, including the infamous, sodden Green Beer Bash every St. Patrick’s Day. Weekends feature some of the best in Canadian music: 13 Engines, Change of Heart, and Cowboy Junkies all put on great shows in the past year. The Albion 2 The glorified broom closet on the second floor of one of Guelph’s most notorious dives is Guelph’s answer to the Cabana Room and the Apocalypse Club rolled into one. Not only the biggest names in Canadian independent music roll through here, but -also, such international alternative kingpins as The Chills and False Prophets.

Time Club - This would seem to be Cambridge’s answer to the Big Bop, a huge danceifunhouse with different levels and dance floors playing different types of music from 60s psychedelia to hip hop, and filled with little rooms out of the blare of the speakers. The Twist - A converted roller rink that has served as an underage cIub for some time, The Twist is apparently in the process of obtaining a license and word has it they will be bringing in some big-name acts in the none-too-distant future.

Lulu’s - The longest bar in Canada lives at Lulu’s. If you want to check it out, be prepared for drunken middle aged swingers and Ronnie Hawkins, Oh yeah, don’t forget to wear your sequined headband. and meat Ruby’s - Danceteria market aptly describes this nightclub. It’s the kind of place where the dudes line up around the dance floor ogling the chicks before they make their big move. If you want to check out the actiofi, it’s on King Street North at the Waterloo Inn.

Fed Hall - One of UW’s claims to fame is being home to Canada’s largest student pub. Club Fed gets some of the hottest acts going, so strap on your bodgie boots and dance your feet off. Remember, if you are a UW student under 19, you can get in but you will not be served any alcohol. .

Arpdm Dugout- - Styled as a sports bar with big-screen sports going all the time, Arpo’s would seem to be an odd venue for hardcore shows, but such bands as Toxic Reasons have laid waste to the stage recently. Ort: Scott Street (near Market Square) in downtown Kitchener. Shooters gles bars Shooters sity and specials

On Queen Street in downtown Kitchener. The Record Store-The best prices for new records, cassettes, and CDs in town are, surprise, surprise, in our very own Campus Centre. You can also find a huge variety of hip and/or offensive T-shirt#g, loads of bargains, and even make a personalized special event if you can’t find what you’re looking for. Keep your money on campus and J. J.‘ll love ya, Dr. Disc -’ One of the busiest stops on I<ing Street in Kitchener, especially on Saturday afternoons, Dr. Disc is usually filIed to bursting with speciald, imports, magazines, representing the whole spectrum of music. Watch the Funboard for new arrivals and the trivia question if you know it, you’ll land yourself a ten per cent discount. Wordsworth Books - They have a much better selection than a typical Coles or W. H. Smith. Wordsworth recently expanded to become new and improved, so they are better than ever. It still. isn’t as good a bargain as buying second hand books, but for new books it’s great. It is on King Street across from Water:loo Town Square. Encore Records - Kitchener’s original used record store has moved into a spacioud, airy new location on-Queen Street to enhance their selection of used records, cassettes and CDS, as well quite simply the as rental CDs best around. Princess Cinema - If you buy a membership, this is the best movie deal in town - and the most interesting. The Princess is a repertory cinema offering a great selection of foreign,filmS, cult classics and box office blockbusters. They also host live acts about once a month, including performers such as Andrew Cash, Located behind the Huether on Princess Street in Waterlod, this cinema is a must for dedicated filmgoers.

Kitchener-Waterloo is not exactly a seething cauldron for bands to brew in; K-W can barely support the few venues it has. Local musicians are thus caught in a quandary: is it hard to be in a band here because there are few venues, or because there is little interest outside the university, or does the former cause the latter, or the latter the former? Excepting the blues hot spot Fop the Gator and the yuppyidinosaur graveyard Lulu’s Roadhouse, local bands have the pauper’s choice of basically only the two UW venues, Club Fed and the Bomber, and a few real world joints, such as Phil’s Grandson’s Place, the Huether Hotel, and once in a while the Princess cinema. But, bucking the odds, K-W has spawned a few bands of note. The following list is by no mean? complete. Ken and Bri I only know of this duo from a tape that they sent to Imprint, Contrasts. It is on sale around the region, but they won’t be playing live around here in a while as Bri is studying in Rome and Ken in Stuttgart. Sort of New Age, sort of folk, sort of Pink Floyd, it is interesting in that it takes a direction different from most. If this is your thang, check it out: they do it as well as anybody. Gordie Gordo and the G Men There is something cosmic about these guys. The first time 1 saw them was exactly a fortnight before the summer solstice, and the second was exactly on the date of the lunar eclipse. In fact, they left the stage exactly eleven minutes before the apex of the eclipse. Unrelated? It is up to you to decide. However, the first time you see them, gentle reader, you will become as dependent as I on them. You will need to witness

again their aural sacrifices and the Pink Furry Guitar: you will need repeat exposure to the diabolical Sweet Angel Honey Baby. They are Ii ke heroin to me. Describing their music is foolhardy, if not impossible. Mister T Experience comes close, though, to mapping their hard edged power pop. Humourous and nasty, Gordic Gordo and the G Men are chiefly responsible for our continued existence. Gord)~ Ramble Returning students may know this outfit as Garden Bower Gord Bolan (the patronymic] go1 a new drummer and changed tht name, but he and partner Pau: Weiler made sure the trio3

The cosmos and Gordie Gordo

sound remained the same. Interestingly enough, the word ramble is a perfect explanation of their sound: mellovv, drifting, and owing a lot to the Velvets and Meat Puppet& though I have no idea if the latter was actually an influence. They have released two albums and a few tapes as Garden Bower. Very good on vinyl, but bring a friend and a deck of cards if you see them live; they rival the Cowboy junkies for stage presence. Music to talk by. Jizmo Jizmo, a synonym for aesthetic terrorism. A lifestyle: mind fuck. Shunning the past and ignoring our doomed future, Jizmo ruthlessly lives the now, forging concensus reality as they step on toes and crush skulls. Not art, not pretty, but necessary. File under: life. The Rhinos The Rhinos take a bit of jazz, a bit a funk. a chunk of humour,

and serve it on a platter of solid pop rock. No categories here; they play everything from their crowd pleasing punk rave up Andy to acoustic renditions of Jacques Brel compositions. Danny Michel sort of fronts the Rhinos, although the band appears seamless and in no need of leaders. But Michel is a hell of a showman and this, combined with the band’s deft song writing and obvious musical talent, raises the Rhinos well above the average bar band with jazz pretensions. I really like this band. Some Cliches Wither This is the brain child of late night CKMS man Frank Fowlie. Some Cliches Wither are a free form jazz band (mind you - my knowledge of jazz and jazz categories is embarrassing] and they gig around the area on occasion. They have at least one tape out and have a cut on the CKMS album, A Giant Leap of Faith. In fact, it was Fowlie working in tandem with CKMS music boss Jacquie Bruner who put together that CKMS product. From this list of bands, both the Rhinos and Gordie Gordo also have

and die. “I _ am _ the __last- person in the world to call for music that is more approachable; I believe musicians should play how and what they want. But if you want to be different (read: boring), be artistic, or else I am forced to call it what I think it is: uninspired pretense.” Judge for y ourself, but be warned.

Suburban Distortion I haven’t listened to their second tape, Semi-Detached, since I reviewed it last fall, So, why think of new nasty things to say when I have the luxury of quoting myself? “The plodding drum machines combined with little instrumentation and a dirge for a voice are more fit for a perverted requiem than for music they claim has been compared to the Velvet Underground.

Once again it’s Fall in the Twin Cities and this year the accent’s on FUN. Maybe you are in darkness and black confusion as to where you can go to get your share of “kicks”. Fear not, I will serve as your guide. Like the elder brother 1 never had, I’d like to think of myself as beacon, serving to part the depths of inky blackness and leading you to your deserved reward. Each year, in the second week of September, the Village Green plays host to a big free outdoor concert. So on Tuesday, the 12th Kim Mitchell will do his (ob-

Federation Hall is the biggest student pub in the country (or something like that). For such a big venue, you need some big names. The dniy confirmed act ai Fed Hall so far is The The, on Wednesday, November 1st. The The will be touring to support the Mindbomb album, the lineup now includes ex-Smiths axman Johnny Marr. But rumors are flying, names like Public Image Ltd., with Gene Loves Jezebel(!); and perennial student fave’, Billy Bragg, have been mentioned.

Another ascendant star in the entertainment firmament, Cowl boy Junkies are pencilled into the Humanities. Theatre sometime this Fall, but nothing’s certain, so don’t quote me on that. Besides Fed Hall, the other main campus venue for live music is the Bombshelter. Nestled in the Campus Centre’, the ‘Shelter has hosted some groovy windigs in the past. The future iooks even brighter! Two weeks from today, Vancouver rock monsters, Sons Of Freedom drop into the ‘Shelter for muscular post-punk noise mongering. Not to be missed. Another guaranteed good time will be had by all when our old friends, National Velvet pummel our eardums with some sinuous guitar grinding on September 22nd. Then’, less than week later’, .on the 28th some big stars will stumble in - yes, the Dead Milkmen! The Court jesters of punk, it seems the Milkmen get bigger with each day.

The Treefrogs This folk rock outfit recently opened for The Men They Couldn’t Hang at Phil’s and by all accountls held their own on stage, winning new fans in the process. Described by their lead singer as “a cross between Box Car Willie and Ratt, with a little bit of the King thrown iti,” their hybrid sound can be heard on their tape, Live at Lloyd%, and on a new forthcoming five song tape. The latter should be avaiIable when this copy of Imprint arrives on your front porch, or in your hedges.

Another renamed band. WX used to be the Weathermen, but then Peter Stathis wrote them a letter asking for their Black album and they replied nicely that he was referring to a British band, the Weathermen. After the red faces subsided, the GueIph Weathermen picked a new name’, one that was mysteriously founld on the back of their debut album cover, though they were still the Weathermen then. You guessed it: they have an album out and it is a good one at that. While the album is dark and brooding, WX come across as a different band live. They have much more of an edge on stage and are quite entertaining.

by Derek Weiler Imprint staff Pe$haps 1989 will go down as the year of the “wacky cover”, what with the Lemonheads’ Luka and Dinosaur Jr.% Just Like Heaven. And now, we have a couple of LPs featuring a whole slew of alternative acts trashing classic tunes by some of rock’s elder statesmen, Believe me when I say, this is the kind of stuff record reviewers live for. To fall in love with The Bridge, one need only look at its track listing. Dinosaur Jr. doing Lotta Love? Pixies doing Winterlong? Nick Cave doing Helpless? College radio programmers actioss the’land have no doubt been spirited to Nirvana. So let’s get it on record: The Bridge is one of the gems of the year. Not surprising&, the most fun cuts are the irreverent ones. Take, for example, Dinosaur Jr.‘s baffling evisceration of Lotto Love, w-hich began life as a charming little love song. Enter six-string serial killer J. Mascis’, splattering guitar blood everywhere. Similarly, The Flaming Lips attack After the Goldrush like a wild animal, biting huge chunks out of it. What is surprising is that a number of the bands on The Bridge play it straight. The Pixies’ Winterlong, Henry Kaiser’s medley of The Needle and the Damage Done and Tonight’s the Night, and Victoria Williams’ Don’t Let It Bring You Down are all delightful, clearly the work of genuine Neil Yo-ung fans,

L Loop’s Cinnamon Girl and Nick Cave’s Helpless straddle the line, somehow retaining all the spirit of the originals’, while still bearing the distinctive stamp of their performers. (And by the way, just hearing Nick Cave utter the line There is a town in north Ontario is something of a recording event in itself.) Add some fine tracks by Soul Asylun-& Nikki Sudden and Sonic Youth, and The Bridge comes up as a revelation from beginning to end. Even if it didn’t contain some spectacular performance& The Bridge would still be invaluable simply because it offers updated renditions of the work of one of rock’s finest songwriters. The Byrds tribute, though, is a bit of a disappointment. If The Bridge offers us the '27 Yankees of alternative rock, there are just too many bush-leaguers on Time Between. Of course, the best stuff is truly remarkable indeed. Dinosaur Jr. (them again!) turn in a surprisingly straightforward version of Feel Q WhoIe Lot Bettef, except they’ve got some mystery geek singing on top of the track (the mystery geek also makes his presence felt on Lotta Love). Thin White Rope’s Everybody Has Been Burned bubbles and roils like a vat of acid

that’s threatening to explode in your face. Miracle Legion offer a countrifed romp thiough Mr. Spaceman. Also noteworthy are The Chills’ Draft Morning and Nigel and the Croses’ Wild Mountain Thyme. (Nigel and the Crosses are alternative rock’s answer to the Travelling Wilburys, consisting of R,E,M.‘s Peter Buck, The dBs’ Peter Holsapple, and Robyn Hitchcock & the Egyptians.) There’s lots tif other highly listenable stuff on this LP, from bands like Giant Sand, The Primevals and The Moffs. But not much of it really grabs me the way it should. Maybe. it’s the material; the Byrds could never touch Neil Young anyway. ,Oh well. One truly brilliant compilation album a year will do. Give Time Between a listen on CKMS or something, but rush out and buy The Bridge if you have to spend your lash penny.

With this album -the 8-52's have succeeded in maintaining their status as an aberration which means they’re still potentially subversive, Don’t count on finding much subversion on this album though. Cosmic Thing is an incredibly formulated, conservative release for a band which once gained its fame by making waves, Overall the album sounds like it should have been released about five years ago, and the band look pretty much the way they did a decade ago. Don’t buy this album if you’re shopping around for interesting new concepts, new techniques and brilliant ideas. If you’re’ looking for insightful lyrics, or just an all around “good” album

you’re reading the wrong review. Howevef, don’t despair over the demise of the B-52's yet; if you’re looking for something rather silly and somewhat nostalgically refreshing you’re looking in the right place. Considering the recent death of guitarist Ricky, it’s rather surprising that this album is as upbeat and happy as it is.. Conversely, considering it was produced by Nile Rodgers (of Chic) and Don Was (of Was (Not Was)) it’s not too surprising that it ended up being badly overproduced. With Cosmic Thing the B-52’s are still as silly, shallow, cheesy and optimistically naive as ever; and something about that attitude is still refreshing after ten years of being exactly the same. With the recent wave of prop& ganda music it’s kind of nice to find a band who have absolutely nothing to say about anything. Cosmic Thing is a nice upbeat album for a lazy summer day. Nothing on this album will shock you. Nothing on this album will offend you. Nothing on this album will try to change your life. This album is a lemon which will make you think a lot about lemonade, and may even put a smile on your face.

by Derek Weiier Imprint staff It began innocently enough, at a swamp in rural North Carolina. The noxious slimewater was also used as a dumping ground by the neighbouring town of Charlotte. Her& the town’s detritus accumulated: the rotted, stringless bodies of ancient acoustic guitars; cracked shards of vinyl that were once Led Zeppelin record albums: godawful spandex clothing that even the Salvation Army refused to take. Then one dagl, after a paperwork snafu, the local nuclear power plant began channelling its radioactive waste ‘into the swamp. Not long afterwards, on the proverbial dark and stormy

night, a great bolt of lightning struck this wretched bog, and a te-rrible genesis began. As the rain poured down relentlessly, a hu e rock ‘n’ roll beast rose up an fi shambled out of the muck. The monster had a name: I am Fetchin Bones!, it cried, Strangely though, as the beast went out and prowled the earth, no one seemed to notice. Yes, it’s true. Despite their being one of the very best bands in the US:, despite their having been signed to a major label (following the release of the indie gem Cabin Flounder in ‘851, Fetchin Bones remain criminally overlooked. With a little luck, the band’s new LP Monster just might change all that. This is the most accessible, listener-friendly Fetchin Bones album yet (not only is it the first Bones disc to be released on CD, it’s also the first to include a lyric sheet]. Happily, though, they’ve sacrificed none of their integrity or quality. Fetchin Bones’ savage roar of old is captured on tracks like Spot and the ferocious Love Crushing. For the most part, though, there’s a new sense of wistfulness and lighthearted-

ness, exemplified in the almost lilting ballad Deep Blue. The vast majority of the songs are sustained tension’, rather than uncomprotiising rockouts of the past. Quibbles? Well for one’, Ed Stasium’s sparkling-clean production isn’t really suited to this band. The guitar doesn’t snarl, the bass doesn’t prowI, the way they should. Only Hope Nicholls’ caterwauling voice - always the Bones’ most distinctive feature - really survives this

scrubbing and polishing. And the album’s lightweightedness - although it certainly provides a fine introduction to the band’s wtlrk - will inevitably disappoint longtime fans. But enough of this critical evaluation shit. If you’re a fati, you’ll undoubtedly buy this LP no matter what I write. If (to move on to the far more likely scenario) you’re a stranger to the Bones, then it’s time you made a move that’s long overdue. Buy this album! Buy This Album! BUY THIS ALBUM!

This gets my award for the weirdest concept ever sold to a major label this’year. Prince to score the music for Batman??? I could think of about three hundred thousand other choices (like Shadowy Men from a Shadowy Planet, or even Jim ThirlwelI, for Chrissakes), but the stupid thing is that it works incredibly well. God knows it shouldn’t, but then agaiti, life is full of surprises. There’s only eight songs on the album, and one of them really sucks. It’s -called The Arms of Orion, and, aside from being meaningless, is a duet between His Shortness and Sheena (Do I Ever Need a Career Boost) Easton. it is too sappy for words, and it’s not even dirty, which is the only way that I’ll ever listen to a Prince ballad. But the other shit is messed up. This kick-ass funk is the best thing Prince has done since the Sign o’The Times thang. Songs like Trust, .The‘..Electric Chair and Scandalous (slow, but filthy beyond belief and steamier than watching Body Heat five times in a row) really latch themselves into yo’ brain. But the absolute killer track is the lead single’, titled tritely enough Batdance. It is Prince’s finest funk mess-ter-piece ever. The best place to hear the track is in your favourite dance hole, ‘cos it changes time signature no less than four times, which really pisses people off on the dance floor. Snippets of dialogue float in and out; sampled noise and banging permeates the music;

Unfortunately, you just know that all those little bat-weenieg, frothing at the mouth over the whole Batman explosioti, are going to line up in droves to buy this just ‘cos it’s got the Batman logo on it - slo you might have to kick a few of them in the head to ‘purchase this record.

songwriter, guitarist and sole member of The The has been playing in bands since age 11. His influences include Syd Barrett, Throbbing Gristle, The Velvet Underground, Cabaret Voltaire, Foetus and The Residents. He claims his music is a sport of modernized form of the early blues; that what he’s doing is what the early greats of the blues would be doing if they were just sta.rting out today. Lyrically he prefers -to deal with the darker side of human exqstence. Believing that peopies’ thoughts randomly intermix the personal and the globaI, his lyrics tend to flirt simultaneously with international crises and private disaster.

Mind Bomb is yet another brilliant piece of work by one-man band Matt Johnson. Whereas previous The The albums tended to be albums to stand up and dance to, this one is definitely an album to sit down and listen to. Mind Bomb is somewhat more One - man man relaxed, less musically aggresI sive, and more smoothly produced than was The The’s previous album’, Infected.

We are damned by our impotence in trying to affect any sort of meaningful change. We don’t know the game, but we are trapped in it. We want to understand, we want to work with it and mold it, but Reality is a jellyfish with poisonous tentacles. And it is controlled, but not by us. We are doomed and damned, threatened and terrorized. As I write these few impoverished words, forests the size of P.E.I. are being chewed away by human termites with their mechanized teeth.

Are you?

The giant machine of the music Industry has pacified us into the pleasure seeking imbitiles we are. Pane et circensis omni. Our only hope is to sift thr’ough the tonnes of placebos sent our way to try to discern the true musicians who have slipped through the Industry’s controlled dam(n). The mere thought of such infiltrators causes the Industry to further their techniques: for every Pere Ubu that bites the finger in the dike and escapes, they send another pop Messiah to visit the new neighbourhood, the Shopping Mall. Discounting the chance that Pere Ubu are agents of the enemy in this war of pacification versus

pop model, but the results sound like they used Japanese language instructions: nothing is where it should be and it looks weird, What a way to flaunt the Industry. The battle is far from over and the danger is just being realized. It is never too late to rebel with a raised fist, to take a stance. But only those who still own their souls may join the fight. Good luck, fellow warriors.

Do I recommend the book? Certainly. I can think of no better way, twenty years from now, to recreate the mood of the lecture halls than ’ to casually flip through the 84 pages in this book.

First Year University: A Survival Guide Ontario Institute for Studies Education 59 pages

by Jeff Smith Imprint staff Concerned about how to survive the socio-economic miasma of university life? Well, the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education has produced a guide book-to try to help you through the hardest parts. Organized as a collection of anecdotes, written by a group of survivors, the Survival Guide attempts to depict the glories and pitfalls of the higher education experience. While many of the stories are useful, I found an unpleasant number of articles which are little more than pointless griping.

- KNA>PSACK WEEK

One such piece, entitled My Iife with Biff, simply complains about Biffs punk lifestyle and lack of interest in his studies. Biff failed eleven of twelve courses and he smellerd bad. Is this useful information to the Waterloo neophyte? Do we learn any valuable life-lessons from Biff? If you are of the opinion that you can ignore your work and still pass then you are already too far gone to be saved by this flimsy warning. While the Survival Guide addresses many of the highs and lows of the lifestyle that you are embarking upoti, .its two most salient points, if followed, can save you the $8.95 cover price. 11 Remember you are not alone. By making friends with the other fro&, you can band together to overcome many of the hurdles. There is strength in numbers. 2) Many schools organize some kind of big brotherlsister system to give you access to an upper year student who can guide you through the real-life pitfalls that none of the Administration literature will admit to.

Take advantage qf this opportunity. Learn from the mistakes of those who have gone before you. Beyond these two points, the book becomes a collection of reassuring anecdotes, Unfortunately, there are no stories from people who didn’t make it through the system. The drop outs could probably provide much more useful advice than the graduates. In summation’, I would most strongly recommend the Guide for people who are seething with pent-up anxieties about the impending year, I’m not certain that it will. soothe any of those fears, but it: will put them in relatively realistic perspective. But since you are already on campus, you can just follow points one and two above and skip the book. You already have access to far more expertise than the Guide offers. First Year University: A Survival Guide is available from the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, at 252 BIoor -Street West, Toronto, (426) 926-4723.

Beginnings can be both exciting and frightening. A beginning is a time of changes and a time of choices, and beginning your life as an independent person will involve these choices. There may be opportunities available to you that you’ve never had before, and you’ll be making a lot of decisions. Many of these decisions will affect the person that you are and will become. Some of the choices and new opportunities are going to involve your sexuality - what you feel and how you express yourself sexually. Choices about your sexuality may be new and unfamiliar to you. You may start to hear voices real voices toti, not imagined ones. You’ll hear the voices of society, the media and the books you read. There’ll be the voices of your peers, of a close friend, and even the sound of your own voice. You probably have heard many of these voices already. Still, you may be surprised at how different they can sound in a new environment. Some will say that sexual intercourse is special - that it is sacred, a gift, or an emotional need. Others will say that sexual intercourse is an appetit& or a physical need - something ex, citing and inviting, Most of the voices will say that sexual intercourse is part of being an adult. Each person will have his or her own ideas about sex. However, what you perceive sex to be will influence the decisions you make regarding your sexuality, especially your choice to be sexually active or not. There is a choice. You can choose not to havesex and feel good about it, Some voices will say to you that a person who does not have sex is abnormal.

sex is understandable to them if the opportunities aren’t knocking on your door. But denying yourself of free and available sex’, to some, is like going on a diet at Christmas. If sex is what you’re looking for, it’s always available somewhere, but it is never free. In a sexual encountel’, you may exchange needs, ,talentg, cash or caring, but there’s always an exchange. Some exchanges are more satisfying than others.

People do decide to abstain from sexual intercourse, and for a variety of reasons. For instance, you may choose not to have sex: 1. When you’re not able to distinguish your sexual needs from your other needs. We all have needs; at times, many of them. Because your sexual desires can get entangled with other needs, it can be confusing and difficult to separate the two. The need to be loved, to be wanted and to belong are basic human needs and part of sexual intimacy. But they can also be discovered without sex. Some may reach for a warm body when what they really want at the time is a warm heart.

2. When you’re feeling pressure to be a successful adult by having an active, exciting sex life. Being successful has become very important to the contemporary man and woman. However’, you can often lose ‘your personal definition of success at the expense of adopting a definition reinforced by society and the media. A definition of success that you’ve created for yourself will lead you to the sense of fulfilment and happiness that the word success implies. Such a personal definition involves knowing what you want and going after those things or qualities in an appropriate manner. Success with your sexuality involve! making responsible decisions in your own and your partner’s best interests. 3. When you’re not ready to sexually express your appreciation of your partner and your relationship. Each couple needs to develop their own style of being together. There’s no right or wrong way of relating to one .another. What is important is finding a way of relating that allows both partners to feel comfortable and natural. You can still enjoy closeness and pleasure as a couple without intercourse. There’s always outercourse - ways of giving and receiving pleasure and gratification without the worry of an unplanned pregnancy or a sexuallytransmitted disease. Holding, kissing and mass aging can be a part of outercourse. Intimacy is a meaningful part of living. It is only when you equate intimacy with sexual intercourse that it ‘is difficult to imagine a happy relationship without sex. Intimacy, howevet, involves .much more than the actual act of coitus.

Birth Control Centre changes name by Al Wadley

Sexuality

Resource

Centre

Effective September IT, the Birth Control Centre (BCC) has been renamed became the Sexuality Resource Centre [SRC). There will be no major differences in the operations of the BCC and SRC - the name was changed to more accurately describe the services that were already being provided by the BCC. One problem with the old name was that some people thought the BCC only had informa’tion about birth control methods. However, we also had information on sexually transmitted diseases, AIDS, planned and unplanned pregnancy, reproductive health (i.e. premenstrual syndrome), sexual assault, fertility, sexuality and sexual dysfunctions. Student volunteers at the Sexuality Resource Centre will continue to provide information about all of the above topicg, including birth control methods, Another weakness of the previous name was that the Birth Control Centre was frequently mistaken for ‘a Birth Control Clinic, Volunteers were often asked if we did pregnancy tests or dispensed Pills. We will be glad to refer clients to campus and community organizations where they can obtain such services. Hopefully c1ient.s will no longer be surprised when we say we can’t do these things ourselves. Our information and counsel-

This is especially true of a relationship that involves sharing oneself sexually. Single people who choose to abstain from sex often find they have more time and energy to devote to other things. Living a more autonomous lifestyle can be a time of productive activities, self-growth and pleasure. The decision to be sexually active or not .is a personal choice. When you make your own decisiond, you’re more likely to understand them, and be able to communicate them to others when it’s necessary, such as when anoth.er person is affected by a decision you make.

The other difference is that the Sexuality Resource Centre has a resource library that can be used by students researching papers or essays. Library books that can be signed out for a week and vertical files that can be reviewed in our office or photocopied. The Sexuality Resource Centre is operated by the Federation of Students and is open to all students and members of the Waterloo community. Feel free to visit the SRC to do research, to satisfy your curiousity or to get the information and support you need to make a difficult decision regarding sexuality.

You can also write down your questions and send them to us through on-campus mail. If you give us a return address (with or without a name) we will send a reply. We recruit for volunteers at the beginning of each term and, because this is the start of the term, we want you!

“Step -- by step, inch by inch”

Use condom (Sexuality

Resource

Centre)

If you are concerned about sexually transmit ted diseases, AIDS, or unplanned pregnancy - you should be using condom sense. The first step in practising condom sense is buying them. Latex condoms are recommended because they provide protection from both pregnancy and STDs. Natural fibre condoms (i.e. lambskin) are not as good at stopping’ the transmission of viruses. Many brands of condom are lubricated. As long _-as a female does not have an allergic reaction to a lubricant, the Iubricated

condoms would likely be more pleasurable for her. Some condoms (i.e. Shiek Elite) have spermicidal lubricants that provide additional protection against STDs. A condom with a reservoir tip will be. less likely to break during ejaculation. Condoms are available at drug stores, convenience stored, the Campus Shop in the Campus Centre, and the Village I and II tuck shops. Single condoms can be purchased for $I from dispensing machines in the washrooms at Fed Hall. the Bombshelter - ---- -------and ---the Campus Ce&e. The Sexuality Resource Centre (CC208) has

se use it. Using contraceptive foam as well as a condom is a good idea because when the two are used together, their effectiveness in preventing pregancy is similar to that of the Pill. Condoms do not have to interrupt your sexual activity males can insert the foam for their girlfriends and females can put the condom on their boyfriends. Many couples have made this an enjoyable part of their foreplay. Males using condoms for the first time might want to practice by themselves before using them with their girlfriends. It doesn’t take long to get used to condoms - be safe.

a limited number of condoms for free distribution. Once you have purchased your condom, the next thing to do is make sure that they are carried and stored safely. Prolonged exposure to heat, sunlight or friction can weaken the latex and increase the chance that the condom will rip or tear. Coat pocket& knapsacks and purses are good places to carry condoms (as long as they are protected from purictures). Wallets or pockets of tight pants are not good places for condoms. The diagrams printed on this page shows wha’t to do with a condom once you are ready to ir

“I always us? a!ubricated condom, I don’t nebd to use any lubricant, right?” =Not necessarily. “Lubricant is only used for anal intercourse, right?” - Wrong again. A lot of people have heard about lubricants such as K-Y jelly, Lubafati, and Mucd, but don’t really know about its benefits. This article discusses how lubricant can make sex safer and more pleasurable for any

sexually

active

individual.

Lubricant plays an important role in increasing the effectiveness of co’ndoms in preve,nting sexually transmitted diseases and unplanned pregnancies. Adding lubricant to a condom will reduce the amount of friction between the vaginal walls and the penis during intercourse, which in turn decreases the risk of a condom tearing. Insufficient

is one cause. of condom failure that could easily be eliminated. I The use of lubricant can also make intercourse more pleasurable for both females and males especially when using condoms (latex is not the same as skin). Although the condom might already be lubricated, that does not mean there is enough lube to make intercourse pleasurable for the female. The more lubricant there ig, the less friction [and more pleasure) there will be. When condoms are used males can also directly benefit from lubrieant. If a drop of lube is placed in the inside tip of the condom [before it is placed on the penis], this will allow the condom to move freely over the head of the penis during intercourse. The fact that lubricant can increase the enjoyment of condom lubrication

An important thing to know is that full-time students can have their pills paid for by the UW drug plan. Note that males whose girlfriends are not at Waterloo cannot claim -the cost of their partners’ prescript ions. If you have a prescription filled at a local pharmacy, you would pay a service fee (about $4) although the drug plan will pay for the actual packages.

’

Full-time students who have a prescription from a doctor at Health and Safety (on campus) can get their pills there without paying any service fee. In order to get a prescription from Health and Safety, you would have to have a complete physical (even if you have had one within the last year). The physical would include an internal (pelvic] examination and the doctor will also take a family medical history. This will ensure that the Pill is an appropriate method of birth control for you, Health and Safety is located off Ring Road across from the Campus Centre. Appointments can be made b$ calling 888-4096; be sure to ask for a “long” appointment. If you ever want any information about alternative methods of birth control or potential side effects of the Pill, talk to your doctor, Health and Safety or visit/call the Sexuality Resource Centre: CCZOS, 885~lWC, ext. 2306.

The amount of natural lubricant produced will vary depending on factors such as hormone levels and degree of sexual excitement. Sometimes nature could use a little help. One potential side effect of the PiI1 is that it can decrease the amount of natural lubrication in the vagina. If this is the case, lube should probably be a regular part of intercourse.

The information in this article is based on the U W pamphlet “Sexual Warassment is not u CompIimerit.” It is important that people understand what constitutes sexual harassment. Sexual harassment on any level humiliates, insults, and threatens the . victim. Any time someone is forced to endure unwanted sexual attention, whether it be lewd comments or coercive intercourse, when acceptance of sexual advances is a condition of education or employment, when rejection affects grades or performance evaluatioti, or when unwelcome sexual advances interfere with the recipient’s work, there is due reason to register a complaint of sexual harassment against the offender. No one should have to endure this.sort of intimidation and disrespect, Sexual harassment ranges from unnecessary touching or patting, verbal abuse, leering, demands for sexual favourg, to insulting remarks directed toward members of one gender or one sexual preference. Victims of sexual harassment do not have to be in a position of aca-

The victim of sexual harassment is not to blame because harassment is imposed sexual attention - the harasser is responsible for the abuse and the abuse must be stopped. A victim of sexual harassment should document any encounters with the harasser, keep noted, pictures and write down dated, incidents, and names of witnesses. Witnesses will serve as ‘a vital resource if charges or complaints are laid. The victim may al& cliscover that others are suffering the same abuse. Most importantly, the harasser must be informed that his’ or her actions’ are unwanted and offensive. Often a letter or a verbal statement to the harasser voicing these opinions will stop the abuse. The Sexual Harassment Officer can help you with the letI ter. Complaints should be registered with the Sexual Harassment Officer or with the department or faculty con-

Although chlamydia was only recently discovered, it is already the most prevalent sexually transmitted disease (STD) and is rapidly spreading. It is especially serious because many people 1410 have chlamydia do not have any of its symptoms and are therefore unaware of havin it. Chlamydia affects both ma Hes and females regardless of sexual orientation. In males, chlamydia can cause inflammation of the urethra. If this is left untreated, it can lead to inflammation of the testicles, which in turn can cause sterility. Some studies have found a connection bet ween chlamydia and Reiter’s syndrome (an arthritislike condition). In femaleg, chlamydia is far more serious. The infection usually starts in the cervix and can then spread .through the uterus into the Fallopian tubes. This can cause scarring in the tubes severe enough to cause infertility or increase the risk of ectopic

pregnancy (tlhe embryo develops in the fallopian tube instead of the uterus). Chlamydia can also result in pelvic inflalmmatory disease (PID), an inflammation of the entire female reproductive system. PID can lead to sterility, spontaneous abortknd, stillbirth and, in rare cam, death. Chlamydia. can be passed on to children during birth if the mother is infected, This can result in eye problems or pneumonia in the children. Generally chlamydia doesn’t let you know that ou are infected until it is esta 6 lished and irreversible damage might have occurred, It is estimated that 60 _ to 80 per cent of females and up to 30 per cent of males have no symptoms -- no scratches, no blemishes, nothing. The symptoms that do show up in females include itching or burning in th.e genital area, vaginal discharge, dull pelvic pain and bleeding between periods. Symptoms for males include painful urination and a watery discharge from the penis. lf you think that you have any of these syrnptoms (or that you might have had sexual contact with someone who does), you should see a doctor immediately. Specifically request a chlamydia test because it is not included in the standard test for STDs. It is important to note that chlamydia often occurs with gonorrhea. If you have (or have had) this STD, you should be checked for chlamydia as well. Chlamydia is treated easily and quickly with antibiotics such as tetracycline. You should also inform anyone with whom you had sexual contact in the four to five weeks before the symptoms appeared that they might be infected. Chlamydia is one of several STDs that are prevalent at the moment. Other STDs to be concerned. about are syphilis, herpeg, trichomonad, venereal warts and crabs. Ariy potential symptoms such as unusual discharge from the genitals, painful urination, sores, rashes, abdominal pain or itchy genitals should be checked out with a doctor. Early detection of sexually transmitted diseases can often make them easier to treat and will also decrease the chance of passing on a disease to a partner. You can reduce the risk of getting STDs by using a barrier me- ‘. _ thod of birth control-[condom or diaphragm) even if you are already using another method. Spermicidal, foams (i.e. Delfen) and condoms (i.e. Ramses Extra) that contain nonoxynol-9 pro.vide additional protection. Even though many sexually transmitted diseases can be cured, here is sne reason why you should avpid getting them in the first place. A recent study suggested that the risk of being infected with HIV [the virus that causes AIDS] is higher for people who have had genital ukera iions due to otherSTDs.

landlord tenant advice The name df the Legal Resource Office (LRO) has been changed to the Landlord and Tenant Informatian Office (LTIO). The office is still staffed by student volunteers, and the Federation of Students still funds the operations. The name change, however, occurred to assist you, the clients, in understanding what services the LTIO provides. The office still houses many informative materials about different aspects of the law (which tiny client is welcome to read], but the focus of the office is, as the new name suggests, to assist students and me-bers of the community in u tderstanding their rights and bligations as landlords and-ten lnts. Thk volunteers are trained each term in the fundamental aspects of Landlord and Tenant law. They are not, howevet, trained lawyers. They provide

their clients with correct adirice about particular legislation in the area of landlord and. tenant law, and each case is treated with strict confidentiality. If you feel that your legal problem is too colmpleg, or it doesn’t involve landlord and tenant issued, please do not hesitate to inquire at the LTIO anyway. Another service the office provides is a complete and current list of resource numers that you can call in order to obtain professional aid regarding your particular problem, Therefore’, do not wait until your problem develops into a crisis; visit the LTIO in the Campus Centre, Rm. UOB, during office hours (posted on the door), or call 888-4634. Also, if you are interested in volunteering,, fill out a volunteer application form in the Fed Office, and place the completed form in the LTIO mailbox located there.

Pub-

This year (1989) marks the 32nd anniversary of the founding of the University of Waterloo. Thirty-two years ago last ]I.& 75 students gathered together on the campus of what was then Waterloo College (an affiliate of the University of Western Ontario now known as Wilfrid Laurier University) in the city of Waterloo. The original 75 were entering a new university-level engineering program’, the first in Canada ever offered on the “co-operat ive” principle according to which students alternate between their studies on campus and related jobs in industry, business or the public service’, every four months. Seen in retrospect, the attempt to establish a school of engineering within the Kitchener-Waterloo community becomes readily understandable. The “twin cities” of Kitchener and Waterloo had, over the years, acquired a diversified industrial structure

which included the electronics, plastics and rubber industries, utilizing state-of-the-art technology. The ’50s were years of intense new interest in technology development; the Soviet Union had just put the first man in space;

proceeded to their degrees. Soon, however, they began to realize that not only did the co-opsystem give them the opportunity to earn their way through school, it gave them superior educations, since what they learned in the classroom could be supplemented by workplace experience, as they went out on their work terms. The new program flourished and the build-up of the needed faculty expertise included not only those who could teach engineering . . . but science and mathematics specialists as well. Before long the new program threatened to swamp the small (400~student) college that had spawned it and perhaps inevitably, rifts occurred. The Associate Faculties determined to go its own way independently. Early in 1958 a new 235- acres was purchased at what was then the northwest corner of the community. Much of it involved what was known as the Schweitzer family farm. Plans for new buildings began to be drawn up and moves were made to create a new and completely separate institution’, today’s v university of Waterloo. 1958, the first _ By December, building on the new campus was open’, still known as “engineering 1.”

was thus founded in a social climate of hope and optimism . . S when it wasalso beginning to be recognized that Canada could very-soon have vast new needs ’ for technological expertise, on a scale not previously dreamed of. 1 The founding president, .I. G. “Gerry” Hagey, at that time president of Waterloo College [a small, Lutheran church-owned college affiliated with the University of Western Ontario) had become imbued with the spirit of progress and with the idea of launching a co-operative engineering program. His enthusiasm was shared by a number of industrial leaders in the community, including Carl Pollock, the president of the largest electronics&related company in Kitchener-Waterloo (Electrohome) and Ira Needles, president of one of the three major rubber companies (B, F, Goodrich) and himself a graduate of a- co-op university in the United States, many years earlier. That the venture would be successful beyond the wildest dreams of its founders soon became readilv apparent.

In 1962 the university was physically expanded to approximately 2,000 acres, with the purchase of the 750-acre “north” campus. Renison College (Anglican) and the University of St. Jerome’s College (Roman Catholic) entered into agreements of affiliation and federatioti, respectively, with the new university in 1960. (St. lerome’s had long existed in the community, having been founded in 1864; prior to federation with UW it had been affiliated with the University of Ottawa.) Both colleges proceeded to erect building:3 on the west side of the new campus. They were followed by St. Paul’s College (United Church), in 1963, and Conrad Grebel College IMennonite) in 1964.

The co-operative programs attractpt! unusually iarge number.. from across the province, as wpli as from the Kitchener-Waterloo area itself. Housing became imperative; it was not until 1964 that the young university began to plan its own student housing - known today as the “village 1" complex. Rapid growth continued throughout the ’60s. By 1967 at the end of the first decade the University’s undergraduate student population num,bered almost 5,000; the graduate enrolment was 750 and there were 384 f acuity. The faculty of mathematics was formed in 1967, followed by the faculty of human kinetics and leisure studies, which grew out of the sch.ool of physical and health education. The faculty of environmental studies took form in 1970.

history at ’ ,Waterloo, Continued from page 24B (pure and applied), health studies, behavioral studies, social studies, the humanities, languages, the artg, the environment, and the urban environment . . That the University has been highly successful is to be seen in the fact that today it has more than 25,000 students including more than 15,500 fulLtime students; it has approximately 800 full-time faculty members, and close to 2,000 full-time support staff. l

ple as developed by Waterloo is successful is undeniable. Today, Waterloo has more than 10,000 co-op students.. . more thanany other university in the world.

It is the fourth largest university in Ontario despite the fact that Kitchener and Waterloo together are smaller than cities such as Toronto, Hamiltoti, Ottawa and London, and despite the fact that there is a neighboring university (Wilfrid Laurier) in Waterloo. The reason Waterloo has proved so successful is primarily, the appeal of the co-op system, The fact that the co-op

Moreovef, the co-op education concept is now being applied in dozens of other universities, community colleges and even high schools, across Canada. A second major reason for the University of Waterloo’s success relates to the decision‘, made early on in the institution’s history, to allow its students to “hands-on” experience have with the computer.

princi-

Back in the late ‘505, when the university had its beginnings, the computer was just beginning to come into its own.. . beyond its use as a machine for the keeping cf accounting records. Computer modeling - involving complex phenomena of all types - and computer decision making were still on the threshold: but the future had becqme clear enough that Waterloo’s innovative professors felt the best way to equip students for it was to permit them to work with computers directly.

than the truth?

Yuu laugh.

Many times during my stay in Swedea, I asked myself what I was doing here anyway. These people speak funny, the men wear pastel plaid, the taxes are crazy, the beer; and everything else, -is atrociously expensive. To start, I’ve found now, at the end of my stay, that Sweden is incredibly beautiful. As the song goes, it’s summertime and the livin’ is easy. I live on an island called Lidingo (that’s Iead-ingue not Ie-dingo).just outside of Stockholm and now that we have lots of daylight and it’s not raining or snowing, I can Fee miles of forestd, blue, blue (really blue) water, and lots of sailboats from my window. At dusk (about HEHI p.m.

now], a barrage of hot air balloons usually comes over the horizon. There is a long, sandy beach just 15 minutes away from home, and with summer hours at work (we finish at MO p.m.), I get some time to enjoy it. Sweden just celebrated Midsommar, the pagan tradition concerned with fertility. The running story goes that the boys and girls disappear in the forest, and the girls come back blushing. In reality, everyone in Stockholm disappears to their summer homes in the Archipelago. The Stockholm area is actually a grouping of anywhere from 26,000 to 300,000 islands. I’ve been told both figured, and many in betweed, but nobody but the Russians seem to know for sure. Suffice it to say there are lots. 1. Anyway, once on an island, Stockholmers generally make merry by eating lots of traditional foods like sill (herring) and potatis (small boiled potatoes) washed down with lots of aquavit [schnapps or vodka) between singing silly songs. Kids (and some adults too) in white

When I arrived in Stockholti, it was late summer and winter was only weeks away. The last few warm days were just ending, and precious hours of sunlight were visibly diminishing. Because Stockholm is on approximately the same latitude as

about the same or slightly milder than Toronto. The lack of daylight causes’most Swedes to go into hibernation’, go on holidays South, and/or drink like fishes. Be warned if you come here someday that alcohol is: - Very expensive - about $8.00 for a beer and $10.00 to $15.00 for a mixed drink. That’s one beer or-one drink. - A hot commodity that is consumed in amazing amounts by

To make winter more bearable, I did as the Swedes do went travelling. This made me realize two things. One, that Sweden is very far away from mainland Europe (for example, a z&hour tra:in ride to Belgium), and not a convenient base to see Etirope from: and two’, that I’ve hardly seen anything of Sweden or my own country.

Swedes travel to make winter more bearable The strange thing about living in a foreign place is that you do that crazy “hit all the museums and art galleries and other neat touristy places” thing for about a week and theti, exhausted, settle into (some what) normal life. Consequently, now that I’m leaving, I’ve taken a few days off work to see the sights in Stockholm itself. Because so many people live in the Archipelagd, there is an excellent ferry system that operates year-round. In the summer, the “thing to do” is hop on a boat, hop off at any island that looks interesting, and, if you’ve read the timetable right, hop back on after a day Iof hiking. The Swedes have this unique law called ollemans rott which translates into “everyman’s right.” What this means is that anyone can walk around and camp up to three nights anywhere in Sweden.

There are miles and miles of walking/cycling/jogging trails through the forests on my isiand, and if we’d had any kind of winter’, I would have been skiing on them. Unfortunately, the snow stopped sometime in mid-December (just after I bought my skis; some cloincidencej so all we were left with was the cold, the rain’, and the darkness.

The only place I’ve ever seen a “no trespassing” sign is in military areas, of which there are many. This is a great way to see Sweden. It also encourages conservation and it’s not uncommon to see elk, reindeer’, Swedes, and lots of other wildlife on your walks. There are also are lots of parks, walking/cycling paths, and wild areas in the city as well. The geography is very similar to northern Ontario’s cottage country [lots of rocks, watef, and forests), but instead of

ish is not. Swedish is called the “kissing language” because of all the weird contortions you must put your mouth through in order to I pronounce words properly. think it should be called the “respiratory failure language” because Stockholm Swedes use a sharp intake of breath to indicate the affirmative or agreement. On my first few attempts to mingle with the locals’, I couldn’t understand what was wrong

with all these people. I thought they were either having a collective heart attack or had very bad asthma. Swedish is basically easy to. learn’, but being in an Englishspeaking environment at work, I didn’t get much opportunity to practice it. Most Swedes speak almost flawless .English anyway, and are quick to “help” you. by speaking English after your first few words of garbled Swedish. Other foreigners say that the only way to learn Swedish is to-

Trespassing allowed almost everywhere plowing down a whole .forest or blasting out rocks to make space for houses as we seem to dd, the Swedes plunk their buildings right in the middle of everything. You rarely see a manicured lawn here. As for the Swedes themselves, I have to dispel a common myth. Swedes do not speak like the Swedish Chef on the Muppet Show, Jim Henson got it wrong. The Swedish Chef should be called the Norwegian Chef because he sounds much more Norwegian than Swedish. Norwegian

This is easier said than done because Swedes are hard to get to know, I think in the year that I’ve been here, I probably know five Swedish people that I say more than hi to (hej actually]. Swedes are polite to strangers when they are introduced, but rarely make the effort to involve strangers in their lives They have been described as cold, but I think that reserved is more accurate.

Swedish, society is very homogeneous (although they are getting more foreigners all the time and are going through racial growing pains at the moment) and very baby-oriented. Indeed, there are babies and pregnant mothers in mini-skirts running rampant everywhere. Marriage is not a big thing here; the state provides substantial support to unwed mothers and there is no social stigma attached to -kids born out of wedlock. Consequently, when you see wedding pictures in the newspapers, they often portray the happy couple - and their kids. This diatribe would not be complete without a quick note on Stockholm night life. There is not enough to constitute a long note. Sure, there are any major city’s share of loud bars and discos, but there are very few “cool” places where they don’t play

disco and don’t charge you $15.00 to get in, The music scene is underground except for the most recent commercial pop successes, Europe [the biggest thing since ABBA and that’s no compliment), a’nd Roxette. A “live” set at a bar consists of 15 minutes of music; no encore, no second set. People don’t get loose. I’ve been to a few potentially upbeat concerts where the musicians really performed their hearts out, but there was no yelling, dancing, or even a murmur of excitement from the crowds. The crowd at R.E.M. showed more than average rapport. At least a few people were standing up at the front, So what am I doing here? Well, now that I’m on my way home to real pizza and cheap beef, there’s more than a few things I’m going to miss. The language isn’t such a mystery anymore, and though the Swedes I’ve met are few, they’ve become good friends. I’ve gotten used to flat, cheese-less European pizzti, though I’ll never get used to the price of a beer or men in pastel plaid. I could get used to winjers with lots of snow and Midsommar’, when Sweden is at its most magical. It is a tradition I’ll always uphold. Now, if they can just add a little more sunshine to Swedish winters, I might even be back. 1 Jennifer Wain is u 3A Iiterature co-op student cently spent a year on tended work term at Sweden.

The most obvious difference between liberation theology and situationism is the context: the former operates in the Third World, the latter in the First. This difference, t bough, should not mask a very basic similarity between the ltwo. The aim of both is to peel away the official version of reality, and to help people realize what a sham it is.

Liberation theology is extraordinary for a number of reasons. It interprets the struggle of the poor as a class struggle, and thus overlaps into the political sphere. Such a view has been prompted by, among other thing& the new reading of the story of Moses and the Israelites. Liberation theologians see this story as a triumph of a group of

Raoul Vaneigem and various members of the Situationist International. While Situation&m never made much of a ripple in mainstream Western culture, it is considered by many writers and observers to be one of the influences leading to the French General Strike of 1968. The Situationists saw modern capitalism as an attention-diverting project, In Western society, they said, all our desires and spiritual needs had been cornmodified, creating a climate where personal satisfaction

theoiogy is proving to be relatively succe8ssful, at least waking people up to the oppressive reality of their everyday life. It has a large and vigorous grassroots support base and has been embraced by many of the Latin American clergy. Situationism’, however, has not caught on in a very big way in North America. For the rest lof this piece, I’d like to speculate on why this is so. Todd Gitliti, writing in New Perspectives Quarterly on postmodernism‘, says of our time% “Every belief comes pre-

The spectacle is the context in which Western consumerism takes place, and according to the situationistd, it includes almost everything we see around us: television’, the movies, newspapers’, public parks, school& etc. The spectacle diverts our attention away from other people, from interpersonal relation-

wrapped in quotation marks. Shock, now routine, is greeted with the glazed stare of the total ironist. Where there was passion, or ambivalence, there is now a collapse of feeling, a blankness and a knowingness that corrodes any positive principle,” The numb smugness Gitlin writes about could well be the result of the cancer which Allan Bloom said *was sweeping America, which was people’s willingness to believe anything, as opposed to their refusal to be-

birth... nists vis a Lis the Beijing tragedy earlier this summer. The content didn’t vary much, but one comment stuck in my mind like a piece of popcorn husk in my teeth. George Jonas (whd, it should be noted, is one of the most level-headed and sophisticated of the Sun’s critics] mentioned that what happened in China would never happen in a “normal country” like Canada. Jonas’s description of Canada as “normal” indicated to me not naivete or ignorance, but complacency, the conviction that, despite our nation’s faults, its ideolo ical footings had been sound Qy cast. To call Canada normal may seem naive or ignorant, but Jonas, judging on the basis of his writing, is neither, What Jonas was saying is that in Canada’, we have no reason to fear oppression. #As most people view oppression’, this is true. We don’t have armed soldiers wandering about in the streets, we are free to speak our minds and express our opinions, we can take any job we

suffered by tiomen and by minorities, or injustices suffered by labourers in the workplace. The way we know of these faults, howevef, needs to be examined, because our failure to correct them may indicate a flaw not in our process of correctiorl, but in our process of crit icism. In other wordg, our inability to start fixing what ails us may mean we don’t know precisely what’s wrong to begin with. If a fresh perspective is needed (and I think it is), then we’re going to need a method to apprehendjt. The first method I’d like to consider is liberation theology, a primarily Latin American phenomenon, the tenets of which were solidified at the 1968 Latin American bishops conference, CELAM, at Medelliti, Colombia. Liberation theology is precisely that, a theology of liberatiori, a theology which dignifies and empowers the poor and oppressed. Liberation theologians reject the traditional role of the Latin American church as an advocate of inaction and apologist

work,.. economically oppressed people over their oppressors due to the help of God. The theology ‘is also noteworthy because it demands action as part of the salvific process. The method of liberation theology is orthopraxid, a cycle of seeing, judging and acting. By such an interpretatiori, faith without action is meaningless, for true faith, say liberation theologians, demands action. But perhaps the most significant asuect of liberation theol-

negation of cant

ogy is its denial of almost all ideology and its negation of religious cant. This rejection is not really an end in itself, but rather a byproduct of the cycle of orthopraxis. Practitioners of liberation theology use for the interpretation of their situation their own everyday experiences and impressions rather than prepackaged explanations from other sources. The word “pradtitioners” is chosen deliberately because, as a weltanschaunng, liberation theology is a hermeneutic, an

ships, and draws it towards a pre-fabricated constellation of images, sounds and experiences which substitutes for our most basic spiritual needs. The only way to escape this spectacle, said the situationists, was through a societal reorganization which promoted sponateolis creation and the construction of “situations.” Such a reorganization would eliminate the ossified, structured society which stifled creativity, personal growth and spiritual development.

lieve anything! For Blooni, relativism has been the scourge of the West, for it has left us bereft of the ability to make any sort of judgment on the increasing amount of information we are receiving year by year. The problem is exacerbated because we are given the impression that we must keep abreast of this burgeoning body of knowledge in order to be members of the “new global’information order.” In an article in Daedalus, Daniel C. Dennett says “ Common knowledge’ is no

If the situationist critique is correct, then we’re not likely to stop laughing either. John Zerzan’s “Vagaries of Negation” (in Apocalypse Culture) provides a catalogue of Western decay.
