Following the recent Supreme Court decision striking down the “rape shield” law, women’s groups and other women’s rights activists across the country have expressed outrage and shock at what they view as a step backwards for the women’s movement. One such protest, organized by the Kitchener-Waterloo Sexual Assault Centre, occurred last Tuesday in front of the County Courthouse in downtown Kitchener. It was attended by approximately 200 women and men, according to Jes (Connie) Gollotti, Executive Director of the Centre. The large crowd of protesters marched around in front .of the Courthouse shouting phrases like “stop sexist judges” and “yes means yes and no means no.” Gallotti said the protest w& organized to show outrage and anger

The decision to overturn the law is seen by. GaIlotti as men attempting to take. away women’s rights, which reflects the growing strength of the women’s movement.

Kolenko; the first registered can.didate for Waterloo city council in Columbia ward, said she can offer “a new pmpective” to council. “Some of the complaints I’ve heard about council is that the councillors are mostly middle-aged. Being younger, I can give a different viewpoint.” said Kolenko, age 25. Kolenko graduated from the Conestoga College business studies program this spring before entering the political science department of the
Issues Kolenko include recycling landlord and tenant disputes and the lack of safe bicycle paths in the city. The townhouse complex on Albeit street where KoIenko lives with her husband, Iganc, Iacks a recycling program. “lf we don’t have it, I wonder how many other complexes don’t have it. I think council should pay more attention to recycling. I also think uptown Waterloo could use recycling bins.” Another issue that bothers Kolenko is the lack of bike paths and trails. “Waterloo has two urtiversities. Lots of studenti ride bikes because they can’t afford cars. Council should do something to make safer bike paths and trails. We should also try to get a better working relationship bet-

The candidate said that since she and her husband rent their townhouse while most council members own their own homes, she could “offer a new perspective on landlord and tenant problems.” Kolenko hopes to take courses
“directly related to council” if she wins a seat. While anticipating leaming more about local politics at university, she said politically she can’t label herself either a liberal or a conservative. “At this point, I couldn’t pick a national party I’d piedge my allegiance to,” she said. Kolenko doesn’t see this as a potential problem though, because “Waterloo doesn’t run on party politics, Iike Toronto.” Kolenko also seems unconcerned that her age wiIl be a disadvantage during the fall election or on council if she wins. “I’ve never had a problem working with anyone of any age, even 20 years older than me,” she said. “I just want to get my job done and ‘work to the best of my abilities.” KoIenko will be holding a “meet the candidate” charity event at Columbia Lake on August 25, complete with a barbeque and entertainment for families and children. She hopes to widen her visibility with this event and looks positively at her chances of winning a seat on Waterloo city council. ‘7’m optimistic. I’m doing this because it’s a lot of fun”

Open twenty-four hours a day,.the They Desk is located directly across from Scoops and are .an interesting combination of an information desk and a service counter. That is, you give them your student cad, and they will open up many of the various rooms students may wish to use (described more below). As well, they are generally helpful people who can assist you with aIrno& any problems you may have. They also have quite a stock of magazines you can read, tools to fix your bicycle, etc. In the corner of the CC closest to the Math and Computer building (the giant cement block) you wiIl l3nd the Bomb&eIti, one of the many oncampus pubs.

Club
bperanto is a planned language intended for the purposes of interethnic and/or international communication Dr. L L Zamenhof, a PoIish ophthalmologist, published the first grammar and vocabulary of the language in 1887. Today the language is read, written and spoken by users in over 110 countries. Zamenhof designed the language to be easy to learn and use. Its alphabet consists of 28 letters, 5 vowels and 23 consonants. Its grammar follows 16 rules with no exceptions. It is spelled as it is pronounced. There is no gender for nouns or adjectives. The verb system is simple and regular. With all of these advantages, Esperanto can be learned in a fraction of the time required for any other second language. Can you read the following:
Up to 80 teams from the KitchenerWaterloo region will compete in nine zany “OIympic” events throughout the day, involving anything from twisted party-type games like passing a ball under your chin to your teammate while blindfolded to testing your athletic superiority by run&i through a maze of tires while balanc-

Many of the classics of world literature have been translated into Esperanto. Hundreds of books and periodicals are published every year in the language. There is recording and broadcasting activity from the world over. It is a living language, used in carrespondence, telecommunications and travel. Meetings, conferences and congresses take place almost every day. Much of the activity is coordinated by mostly volunteer organizations working at the local regional, &ional and international levels. Part of the purpose of the Esperanto Club at UW is to raise awareness of and provide access to this world. But first the language has to be learned. The Club has organized a free beginner’s course for the fall on Thursdays from 200 until 8:30 in MC4062, beginning on Sep tember 19. Yourself The text is “Teach Esperanto” by Cressweil’and Hartley ($14.95) and we recommend the accompanying. dictionary, “Teach Yourself Esperanto Dictio~ry” by J.C. Wells (9.95). Both are available at the UW bookstore. No registration is necessary. As well, a chat hour to practice the language will take place on Tuesdays from 1230 until 1:30 in the Modem Languages Building cafeteria, be&inning on September 10. Esperanto was never intended to replace national languages but rather to act as a bridge between speakers of different languages. That bridge is needed as never before. On the one hand, communications technc&o@es are bringing people from ali over the world into ever closer contact. On the other, linguistic and ethnic tensions are on the rise. Esperanto offers an approach to this problemwith is proven but too littleknown in this part of the world.

fireside chat by Peter Brawn In a couple of weeks, you will have forgotten Frosh week with the shock of 8:30 classes, four-hour labs, and endless work. Here are some thoughts that I hope you remember two weeks from now. Universities are institutions produced by our society, so they must have been created in our own image, so to speak. This means that the same hierarchical, male-dominated, and success-oriented ideas that pervade our society can be found here as well. Here at the University of Waterloo, we have a world-class reputation for excellence in technical, especially computer-related, fields and in the area of co-operative education programs. Because of this, the links between the ivory tower and the so-called real world often seem totakeon thedimensionsofanumbilical cord. Some go so far as to refer to us disparagingly as a “corporate” university where it isasiikelytoseesomeone wearingasuit as a tshirt and jeans. That’s not exactly true, except perhaps while strolling through Needles Hall during co-op interviews. But it is true that UW exists in an economic context, probably more so than for the average university in Ontario. While the government’s share of funding for postspondary education is constantty contracting, universities are constantly seeking new sources of income. For Waterloo, with the links that we have with corporate Canada, grants and equipment in exchange for corporate research is the natural and logical way to maintain and expand the research and teaching opportunities that our technical departments can provide. For undergraduates, this meanstwo things. First, that liffle that you will be exposed 10 in the next four years will be new. New to you maybe, but certainly not new to your professors. That’s because the rules that grant tenure and other promotions to professors has little to do with you undergrads. Teaching is an extremely low priority as far as the university is concerned; the number one priority is research. And how does one conduct research? With grants. From where? The government or corporations. The second significant thing for undergrads is related to the nature of university enquiry. A common perception of the difference between colleges and universities is that the former are more technical and the latter more theoretical. Colleges teach one how to do something, whether it be designing a circuit board, managing a hotel, or program a computer. Universities, on the other hand, aren’t just about how; they are also about why something happens; first prrnciples are more important than details The tendrils of university / business cooperation is blurring this difference. This is because behind the philanthropic, moneygiving visage of corporations there lies one Intent: profit. Pure scientific research does not produce short-term profit. What does produce short-term profit is short-sighted applied research, the kind that attempts to find the fastest, best, cheapest way to perform some technological task or process. Is this inherently bad? Of course not environmental technology rs just one example of the social utility of this kind of research. But the ultimate motivation for the corporate sponsor is the tmprovement of their product+ not the advancement of science and certainly not the education of undergraduate students. The only way, if any exists, that undergrads can
counteract

is by

for a
more
prominent role for teaching. Demand that your professors do a competent job of preparing for lectures and complain like hell if they don’t. Fill out teaching evaluations at the end of courses and ask your department chair what the hell he or she does with them. Above alt, don’t accept mediocrity in teaching; learning is why you are here.

Cartoon fan speaks out To the editor, Although I am currently off-campus this term, living and working at home in London, I try to keep up with the current issues of Imprint whenever I am in Waterloo. A minor criticism of our paper that bothers me that Imprint doesn’t seem to actively seek and encourage the submission of student cartoons that are representative of the talents of our student body at UW. After reading copies of other student newspapers from other universities, and seeing weekly cartoon stil% in them, I had to wonder if we also have taleny ted people who could contribute cartoon submissions to our student paper. It is my belief that a newspaper serves two purposes: to inform and to entertain. Cartoons, especially student cartoons, can often achieve both goals with their use of wit, sarcasm, understatement, and the clever analysis of issues and concerns. Surely there must b severai talented, creative students on our campus (or offstream) who would like to see their artistic endeavours in print. Jason Sack 2AEnglishm
Applauds nudity To the editor, 1 would like to applaud Gwen Jacobs, the University of Guelph student who walked bare-chested down the street earlier this sum-
l
mer. The fact that a woman cannot walk barechested without being arrested while her body can be exploited for the viewing pleasure of others is wrong. I am appalled and outraged that a woman’s body is not her own. It is sick that g breast, intended for the feeding of infants, is considered criminal if appearing ifi public. Yet, the general public can walk into just about any variety store to buy-pornographic magazines which exploit women and their breasts. These materials turn women into body parts and objects which serve one purpose sexual gratification, primarily for men. It is time to give women’s bodies the dignity and respect they deserve.

The still bare trees provide a natural windbreak to the still icy winter breath. Although the sun is just about to recede and allow the now faint, but waxing white disc in the eastern sky to fulfil its part in the beauty of the diurnal cycle, I cannot but marvel that the landscape still looks like it belongs to barren winter; spring is officially a week old. I file through in my mind aII the clichs that seem appropriate: the temperature magically rising in concert to pant cuffs transforming into short cuffs; spring ephemerals blooming in a myriad of delightful colours; hibernating animals groggily awakening from their deep torpor. What I experience is the muddy and quite slippery earth, no longer a solid water trap, instead. Maybe this divorce from the Atural world, that has become pronounced in modernity, also severs with it the ties to time and rhythm. At this latitude, spring does not truly arrive like it says in those pictured story books of memory, until the cross-quarter day between the equinox and solstice, traditionally the May Day of Europe. It is saddening to realize that the New World has never truly celebrated the importance and meaning of this day, whether it is the change in the calendar from winter to spring, or the experiential manifestation of pink flowers and newly unfurled green buds of an apple tree. V&at I know of it is lodged deep in the recw of my mind, a cursory TV image of children circling the maypole or the column of Soviet armour sweeping across Red Square. Of course it does not seem to make sense to engage in fertility rites when we are no longer an agrarian society and myth has been replaced by “scientific methodology.” But as each generation layers a new veil of forgetfulness on the Gaian corpse, it heralds the day when even black cows become meaningless. The honking of Canadian geese overhead is a hopeful reminder that it need not be this way. And as the treesresonate with the Arctic draft that glances a cooling stroke across my neck and cheek, I am reminded of the words of poet Kathleen Raine: “It is not birds that speak, but men learn silence.” m-p-

All opinions on this page are strictly those of the authors
To shield the plaintiff, Or not find the best defence in pointing out the plain-’ tiff’s past. After all, if the sexual revolution demystified and legitimked casual sex on the grounds that it is just like any other natural urge, why should sex be treated any differently than teeth-brushing?
In our system of Common Law, a criminal charge never means that the accused is guilty; instead, the accused is merely that: accused. He/she has the chance to defend him/her self, and if the case warrants it, even to appeal a guilty verdict But this system is under attack from well meaning and honestly concerned people. It’s all over the papers: the “rape shield” law has been struck down and feminists (how I hate labels) are up in am. The so-called law prohibited a woman’s sexual past from being brought up in rape trials. The purpose was obvious: to stop the victim (usually female) from having to under-go her own trial of morality, or to avoid having the judge and jury siding against the victim on the grounds that she was licentious.
The problem is obviously that until the verdict is, in, no way exists to judge the innocence/guilt of the accused. Thus, striking down the “rape-shield” law is a step in the direction of sounder jurisprudence. Now, the judge is unshackled by n&s and able to judge the relative value of introducing such information. Do not forget - ever - that the judge always has last say in what kind of evidence is admissible. Now the judge is able to do his/ her job. Possibly, the judge can be a meat-head and rule foolishly. Examples of such actions are brou&t up in the papers all of the time - yet, if you read past the rhetoric, you’ll note that they are always the same handful of cases: the Quebec judge, the Manitoba judge, and the British Columbia judge (if you are following the issue, you know the official stories of the three). Perhaps the relative paucity of examples suggests that the problem is not as significant as it is being played up.
The intent was good, but also very disturbing. Such a law might be wise in a perfec( world where everybody told the truth, but the very presence of the law negates this possibility. Ashardasthisis tosay,~~etimes people lie in court. Sometimes people file false charges. And women are people too. So, the “rape shield” law in fact withholds information that may be pertinent to a particular case, and subverts our legal systemzinnocent . Supreme Court Justice until pnwen guirty Beverly McLachIin pointed out, in the 7-2 majority judgment, that the law “raised the danger” thatinnocent people might be convicted.
Yet, Ill still agree that the law change will intimidate rape victims. How can it not? This, however, is a challenge that individual victims will have to suffer through, as unfortunate as it sounds. The right to a fair trial cannot be superseded by the supposed right to peace of mind. - We have to have faith in our judges who, after all, are as human as the plaintiff or the accused. Perhaps we must insist that our judges be made sensitive to the real problems women face in our admittedly male-oriented world. But to deny the accused a fair trial is step back to trial-by-ordeal Or perhaps, the witch hunts.
The “rape shield” law plays on the faulty premise that once rape/sexual assault charges are filed, the accused is guilty. Look at the ruling this way: if the assaulter is indeed guilty, then the courts have no reason to know about the victim’s sexual history,,because all thinking people realize that nobody asks to be raped, and thatthere is no justifiable defence in claiming that “she asked for it.” We are all responsible for our own actions, period. But if the accused is innocent, the plaintiff’s sexual history can be relevant to the case. For instance, a truly innocent accused party may
John Hymers
It is truly sad that the people with-power in this society cannot treat one-half of the population equally. It is further saddening to witness those in power further eradicating what rights that half has struggled for since the word feminism was invented in 1895. What this piece is about, of course, is the Canadian Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the “rape shield” law. This will have the result of allowing a rape victim’s past sexual history to be brought up in court trials. What’s the use? Will they also allow the, defendant’s past history to be brought up as well? If so, it should focus on history of violence. Sexual assault does not involve sex. It is a violent crime. No one questions a mugged person about their past history of sexual relationships. It also allows the stereotype of “yoti asked for it” and that sort of treatment to be further perpetuated, which isn’t even on the playing field as Ear as logical arguments go. People who have their house robbed and happen to have forgotten to lock their front door don’t LA to be robbed. Why society does not seem to want to deal with violence against women is not entirely clear, but it isn’t hard to guess. “Society,” as an organization or populace of some so* is structured such that mostly males hold the positions of power and abiIity to administer that power. No one truly wants to admit that the problem is as larie as it is and males are threatened by the progress of the women’s movement, (They’re even allowed to vote, ya know?) The repealing of this law will also probably cause the ratio of rapes that are actually reported to drop even lower than the ludicrously low one in ten statistic that is commonly cited. Another statistic is that fully one-quarter of the female population is assaulted at some point in their lives by members of the opposite gender. Even if this law was turned over because of some sort of logical “law and order” argument, so what? Doesn’t the importance of the
issue and the wide-ranging effects of such a law warrant any consideration? It is not as if our lawmakers are consistent in regulating various aspects of our lives the rest of the time. The law allowing roadside breathalyser tests and the RIDE program, even though this infringes on individual rights, was deemed to be acceptable via to the “greater good of society” argument. The rape shield law positively affects half of our society, and is not known to have negative effects on the other half. Perhaps this is part of a backlash against feminism. After all, did you ever stop to think about why there is such a concept of “women’s rights ?” It’s be~3use men currently possess most of the societal rights. This would imply that women are fighting for some of these rights to achieve equality, and of course no sector of society tit holds power wants to share any of it. If, however, we are interested in what is best for society overall, special measures should be taken to help empower and aid the goal of equality of the oppressed group. I think that common sense and history tells us that no one likes to voluntarily give up any of their power for any reason. Everyone loves power, be it a promotion, domination, playing mind games, or whatever manifestations it takes. That is why, occasionally, provisions such as the RIDE program, affirmative action, and the rape shield law that may infringe on personal rights but are seen as great value to society as a whole must be legislated. If you recognize that women are equal, such provisions should be seen as measures to equalize the distribution of power and rights. Ultimately, there should be a balance reached, at which point the male population won’t have actually lost any of this; they simply will have been involved in a corrective redistribution of available rights and power, of which they traditionally held the majority.

Thoughts upon the video image their rough amateurism is merely 2 low-buck imitation of the corporate technique. Sadly, the independent tide< quotient will continue to b4 marginalized as HDTV emerges witt its higher requirement for technica quality, and the resultant increase ir production costs. Though dissatisfaction has always been a pop commodity, it’s nowhere more ironic than on video channels. hkd Young’s “This Note’s for You,” with its snide anti-corporate jokes, goes unnoticed by a public which has been successively stripped of its a-it+ cd function. The references designed to be insulting are simply recognized as variants on other videos’ corporate references.
by Paul Done Imprint staff In his penetrating “Society of the Spectacle” (1967), French social theorist Guy Debord posited a form of social behaviour control known as “the spectacle,” defined thus: “The spectacle is the moment when the commodity (in this case, the video) has attained the total occupation of SC&I life. . . the world one sees is its {the spectacle’s) world.” The more completely a media fills our sensory spectrum, the less effort it requires from the observer, hence producing a more passive population. Where music once served as soundtrack for other experience, the emerging dominance of the video image as our primary music source continues to focus and limit the range of action which can accompany pop music. Where once, one might have said, “I first heard that song on a date,” or “that song reminds me of a great day we had at a cottage,” most people now would say, “I first saw that video. H and usually videos are watched passively - sitting on one’s butt at home. That’s hardly grist for a wide variety of colourful recollections, is it? With the coming advent of highdefinition Television (HDTV) and 3D-TV, one can fully expect fhe average consumer 20 spend even more time at home watching TV, watching music videos. The result? A more passive, more couchbound population. The consequences for pop music can only be detrimental, The miracle of video TV stations is that they succeed in selling commercial air time between their programming which is constituted of little more than ads for pop product. Take the new Guns‘N’Roses video, ‘You Could Be Mine,” as an example. It’s as single-minded in its commercial intent as the Terminator is in its murderous intent. The GNX video is the latest shiningly cynical feat of crossmarketing it appeared on the soundtrack of Terminator 2 while the thing credits were rolling. The videqfor the song contains segments of the T2 television commercials along with an Arnold Schwarzenegger cameo as the Terminator. And for this, it has been nominated for an MTV video award. At the advent of video as a cultural force, we (critics, fans, consumers) were offered the promise of a whole new palate of po(p)ssibilities. We, of course, were lied to. Any extended video viewing quickly reveals that there are little more than minute differences between videos the techniques, the edits, the use of closeups, the eye-smashing colours, are generally the same from video to video regardless of the arbitrary pop genre into which a song is grouped. This repetition is typical of any propagandist system, according to sociologist Jacques EM, who has ’ offered the most complete and worthwhile definition of cultural propaganda yet.. Iteration helps achieve two of the primary aims of propaganda, according to Ellul: the pro-, duction of “individuals especially open to suggestion who can be easily set into motion” and the effecting of “the creation of an abstract universe.” Since the crushing majority of videos, regardless of genre, are produced by a hati-a-dozen huge corporations, the similarity in technique and purpose from video to video should come as nogreat surprfse. The hypnotic quality of the quick edits and angle-shots is specifically designed to produce a general disposition toward consumption among the audience.
Repeated video watching certainly consumer, the fulfillment of that proproduces a false and abstract mise k as close as the nearest music universe: the images promise store. glamour, success, and heightened * A few independently-produced intensity of existence. Luckily for the videos do appear on video networks
(and Mu&Music must be congratulated for playing more than other video networks, but maybe that’s just to do with Canadian content requirements). Most of the time,
“Stranger than Fiction,” Joe Jackson’s latest video, features’ Joe lollygagging around the house, seemingly irritated by the bevy of babes who get underfoot and block h& view of the TV, & a double-edged ironic cut. While it is evident that Joe is making a hamfisted attempt to ape the video cliche of buxom women, in the video universe which strips images of context, his video is quantatively identical to the direst heavy metal sexism.

Questions about renting? Come to CCLSOB
Know your rights as a tenant What are your rights? With the new school year here many students will find themselves renting. Here is just a small list of things you should watch for.
Key money and deposits Many times ‘Izey money” is disguised as a charge for Mture, draper& and other accessories which are already in the unit. Ontario’s rent review legislation makes it illegal for landlords, tenants, or any person on their behalf to collect or attempt to collect key money. The only deposit a landlord can legally demand is a sum equal to or less than the amount of last month’s rent. The landlord must pay the tenant six percent per annum on this deposit
Here are some particulars to keep in mind when signing a lease: - Read it over and make sure you understand all the clauses - Have any landlord promises put in the lease, and have them initial any \ amendments.
Before you move in, ask around to see how much other people are paying in your building or previous tenants have paid. Call Rent Review at 579-5790 to see if the unit is regi+ tered and what the legal rent is. Ibddated
cheques
Tenank do not have to give the landlord postdated cheques. A person may do this out of their own will for the sake of convenience. Attention: if you have no lease, postdated cheques could be understood as an agreement to a &cl term. This might be in
opposition to your wish to have a monthly tenancy. Privacy Tenants have the right to privacy in their unit, The landlord cannot enter without tenant’s permission, only by giving written notice 24 hours in advance. This is nulled in emergencies or after notice or termination of the tenancy has been given in this case, the landlord has the right to show the unit to possible renters within reasonable hours. Tezminatkmb@eteMnt A lease or other tenancy agree merit cannot be broken by either the landloid or tenant without cause. The only exception to this is that the Want may terminate a tenancy agreement after giving appropriate notice 60 days before the end of a fixed term agreement (usually a ieaSe), a periodic (month to month) or 28 days before the last day of the tenancj in the case of a weekly agreement. Caution: this section gets a great deal of misinterpretation.

For example, if I sign a lease for the time span being Septembei 1,199O to August 31, 1991 and I: wish not to continue after August 31,1991, I must give wriften notice 60 days prior to August 31,1991, It doesn’t mean that 1can give 60 days notice anytime during the stated time frame and expect to be free from the lease. Remember, your lease is a legally binda contract.Findoutyourrightsandresponsibilities before signing. Rcprinsandmaiu~ce The landlord is responsible for “providing and maintaining the premises in a good state of repair.” The landlord must adhere to all municipal health, safety and property standards. Tenants are responsible for repairing any damage caused by “willful or negligent conduct” by them or their guests and for the ordinary cleanli-
ness of the premises unless the tenancy agreement states that the landlord cleans the premises. A few things in which the bylaws address are: - units in Kitchener-Waterloo must have a heating system capable of keeping an air temperature of 21 C (70 F). Remember, this is for winter! - every property must be kept free of vermin
Roommat@$
Try to get everyone to sign the lease to lessen future problems with roommates as to living arranemenk, rental amounts, and so on. Don’t forget the school year can be very long and commun.i&ion prior to the year might save problems. If you have any hesitations it is better to come by the Legal Resource / Landlord and Tenant Information Office in the Campus Centre 15OB, and see what we can do for you. Are you interested in knowing more about law and how a legal resource o&ice operates? How about becoming a volunteer and gaining valuable experience and knowledge? No previous experience is necessary. Sign up in Campus C&&e 15OB. We also have an answering machine to answer your calls 24 hours a day, 88% 4634.

The Ombudsbuddy by tie kderation
Ol)onneU of Students
The role of ombudsperson originated in Sweden approximately 200 years ago to ensure that citizens’ tights were not being neglected or violated by an increasingly complex bureaucracy. At the University of Waterloo, the CXfice of the Ombudsperson was established in 1982 by the Federation of Students under the same principle - to ensure that members of the university community receive fair and equitable treatment within the university system. Today, the office
offers an independent, impartial, and confidential service to all members at the University of Waterloo who find themselves in a troubled situation, The Ombudsperson assists individuals who are: - unsure of universitv policy, procedure, or regulations, I - unfairly treated by anyone on cam-
pus, - having a problem which requires someone to help mediate a solution or facilitate com=munication, - feeling that university policy has been applied unfairly or erroneouslyf - a victim of discrimination or harassment based on sex, ethnic

Volunteer
if you’re looking for something to fill your spare time this term, why not give volunteering a try? Volunteering is a great way to meet new people, to gain job-related experience, and to feel valuable and needed. The Student Volunteer Centre, located in room 150A in the Campus Centre, has a list of over 150 agencies who are always looking for dedicated and dependable volunteers. The type of volunteer work available is virtually unlimited within the Kitchener-Waterloo area. Whether your interests lie in music, children, or he physically challenged, there’s a place for you. From befriending a child through the friends program to working in a women’s shelter, the opporunities are virtually limitless. Local schools are looking for teachers’helpers (great for those thinking of he teaching profession!) and various charity organizations for fund *hers. Volunteer activities range from business and computer-oriented to tutorng and therapy, through to sports and leisure positions. There are also many on-campus opportunities that are worth looking nto. The Legal Resource Office, the Waterloo Public Interest Research Zroup (WPIRG), and Imprint are just a few of the organizations requiring 1 r’olunteers. For those of you wishing to volunteer but are unsure of what you would 1 ike to do, the Student Volunteer Centre is hosting a Volunteer Fair. It will t ake place on Tuesday, September 17 in the Campus Centre great hall from 310 am to 4 pm with approximately 35 agencies from the Kitchener- Waterloo 2 uea participating. It’s a great opportunity to come out and see what’s availe rble both on and off-campus. So, if you’re looking for something worthwhile and interesting to do, this . .E s your chance!

The volunteer opportunities c ut and get involved; it’s a great feeling!
VPElcome International Students! hernationalStudents Office For first year students at UW, the fall term marks the beginning of a new phase in their lives, one that’s exciting and scarby at the same t&e. It means a new lifestyle whether they stiIl live at home and commute to campus. It means greater demands academically: crammed schedules; tight deadlines; more work than can be done in the time available, a barrage of new concepts and information to ponder, discuss and assimilate. SOCial relationships undergo transformations. Leaving the familiar groups of associates in high school means getting a new perspective on who you are, trying out new social behaviors, spreading your wings. Now, imagine an incoming student who is also coming to a different by
with a different
social struc-
ture, language and educational system. These are the additional challenges facing our international students when they arrive at UW this fall. In many cases, new international students know no one else on the campus when they arrive. In some cases they’re on very tight budgets because of the elevated cost of tuition (five to six times what Canadians pay)* Air fare home is expensive and
they don’t expect to get back to visit family and friends more than once or twice during their stay here. For some, they’ll be studying in English for the first time. UW is fortunate in having about 900 international students (Winter ‘91 figures for both grads and undergrads) from about 60 counties. The undergrads are 3.4% of our total undergraduate student population. Having international students (and visiting scholars, who are frequently older men and women who hold university positions in their own countries and are here for academic upgrading) enriches us a great deal, both in the classroom and Iab, and on a personal basis. The exchange goes both ways. We see ourselves as Canadians through others’ eyes - our strengths, our customs, our idiosyncrasies. Through our visitors, we experience a microcosm of another culture and a different way of being. One office on campus which is designed to facilitate the interaction of WI- international visitors with the campus and the community is the International Student Office (ISO), PM Of Counselling Services in Needles Hall. International students can go there for help with temporary accommodation when they first arrive on campus, with short term financial assistance if

that Iink. English conversation classes are held every Friday afternoon in the. ISO. Orientation to the camp+ and the city goes on informally all year and there is a formal session for all new international students in the first week of the fall term. The IS0 invites international students to drop in with any questions or concerns they may have, to take part in a program or simply to meet the International Student Advisor, Sheryl Kennedy. Any personal issue can be discussed privately with Linda Kellar, the International Student Counsellor. Canadian students are welcome to come to the IS0 as well. Several of the programs rely heavily on volunteers to make them work. English tutors are one example. These are students, in any faculty, who are interested in spending one or two hours a week talking with an international student, providing her or him with the opportunity (which often is not easily come by) to converse in English with a Canadian on a variety of topics and get feedback about using the language. At the beginning of term, new international students need help finding their way to various places on campus and int ,the city, understanding how things operate (e.g., getting a phone and a bank account), and
generally getting filled in on how we do things. Students who can be “first buddies” to new international students are very appreciated. Anyone interested in helping out is

Wholelife training Promises to improve * happiness Self-helpprogrammes have flourished wildly in the past decade. Everything from how to build a better (that concept’s personality, to antithesis) how to drag the most bucks out of somebody else’s pockets and get away with it. A new Waterloo organization Training, called Whole me approaches the self-help seminar idea from a different perspective. Most programmes merely motivate, says Roy Holden, president of the organization. Whole Gfe Training’s seminars will motivate, teach, and help put into practice right away the concepts and principles that the Whole Life Training organizers believe can change your perspective and enjoyment of life. Whole Life TraGng began its programmes earlier this month at the Waterloo Inn. Their first seminar was on the concept of discovering the latent talents within yourself. Whole Life Training organizers believe that each person needs to have greater understanding about themselves, their abilities and their potentials. In that way, people catl become “empowered” to futd meaning and reaI happiness in life. The ?3emhms involve an initial disk” cussion of the concepts or principles involved in a specific aspect of life: it might be how to manage stress, or howtouseneurc+iinguisticprograrnmhg, to give up undesirable habits. Then each seminar inch&s a workshop segment where the principles discuss4 are actually put into practice. Holden is satisfied that this v pnune allows people to leave the seminar not merely told that they ought to be better or do better, but also experienced in certain principles thatcan help them in their specific areasofneed. Whole Life Training a~ with the principles of who&tic therapy (thus, the name, Whole Ljfe Training). In fact, the main presenter at most semiruus is John N.

any disorder, either physical or emotional, is able to be cured or s&isfied bv techniques effective in either or both areas. ‘thus, a sickness or disease can sometimes be cured by a change in attitude; likewise, stre& or some emotional upsets are often discovered to be related to problems with nutritional intake, or food allergies. The Whole Life Training gramme makes people aware 0 p””the sorts of changes they might need to make in their own lives in order to achieve maximum enjoyment, to be happy in their own company, and to fee1 empowered by health in their bodies and minds to achieve their individual goals. For the time being, the Whole Life Trair&ng seminars will be dealing with i&ues ~~mn~n to everybody’i experience, such as stress in iene&I, habit-breaking and habit-forming,

In the near future, Holden says, the organization would also like to create seminars that focus on specific needs. Their first target audience will pro bably be university students, for whom organizing lifestyle and personal awareness in order to achieve higher satis&tion in the learning experience may be an asset. No one is promising miracles, but Holden and Nauss really believe that Whole Life Training can help those who take their seminars to enjoy life, relationships and personal progress in ways that no other seminar programme can dr has ever promised to do.

Board
The Women’s Issues Board (WIB) of the Federation of Students would like to extend a hearty welcome back to all students and staff. VVIB also wishes to clarify its role and present positionat the University of Waterloo. WIB’s primary capacity is to enhance the role of women in the UniversiQ of Waterloo’s community by means of educating students, raising awareness of women’s issues, and encouraging females to participate in governing bodies on campus. In the past WIB has been accused of being a male-bashing or female supremacist organization. To* set the record straight, WIB is committed to equality%etween males and females
from all walks of life. The Federatior of Students recognizes that unfair treatment of women is a social pro blem, not women’s problem. Changing the social structure is nol an easily done task - it requires the cooperation of both sexes. This is why we welcome the efforts of all students, male and female, who wish to make contributions to WIB. The staff of WIB has worked hard to prepare events for the fall ‘91 semester. All interested men and women are invited to participate in such occasions. Watch for upcoming events in, Imprint and on bulletin lxwds. All interested students are encouraged to approach the Women’s issues Board with questions, queries, and concerns WIB can be reached at 885-1211 ext. 6305 or by dropping in at CC 235,

Beginnings can be both 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.

opportunities are going to involve your sexuaIity - 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 too, not imagined ones. You’ll hear the voices of society, the media, and the books you read. There11 be the voices of y&u- 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

say that sexual

course is special - that it is sacred, a gift, or an emotional need. Others will say that sexual intercourse is an appetite, or a physical need - something exciting 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 have sex and feel good about it.
Some voices will say to you that a person who does not have sex is abnormal. In their; opinion, to choose to go without sex is out of the ordinary. Going without sex is understandable to them if the opportunities aren’t knocking on your door, but denying yourself of free and available, 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 encounter, you may exchange needs, talents, cash or caring, but there’s always an exchange. Some exchanges are more satisfying than others. People do decide tq 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 tw6. 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 ad+ing a definition reinforced by society and the media. A definition of success that you’ve created for yourself wiII lead you to the sense of fulfillmentand 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 involves 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 snows 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 &f an unplanned pregnancy or a sexually transmitted disease. Holding kissing and massaging can be 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, however, involves much more than the act of coitus. 4. When you choose to be single because you’re not prepared to be part of a couple or you’re enjoying being single. Being involved in a relationship is very time and energy-consuming. This is especially true of a relationship that involves sharing oneself sexually. Single people who choose to ab tain 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 decisions, you’re more likely to understand them, and be able to communicate them to others when it’s necessary, such as when another person is affected by a decision you make. As in any decision, you have to decide how you feel about your decision and clearly define what you want out of it. The voice that should influence any decision that you make

Warrior Football 1991: Ready to rumble Courtesy
UW Athletics
The Waterloo Warrior football team opened their training camp on August 22 with about 40 freshmen reporting for their first taste of interuniversity competition. . After three-a-day workouts and assessments by the coaching staff, the first cuts were made at the conclusion of workouts on Saturday, August 24. On that same day, the veterans, approximately 60 in number, reported for training. Leading the veterans is second-year quarterback Steve Bennct, who hails from King City. Bennet will have a lot of competition as no less than six other players have arrived at camp to contest the QB spot. Returnees Dave Sharp and Dave Ciardullo are two of the six. Gory Adams, a transfer student from Toronto, joined freshmen Brad Chapman (Denis Morris high school in St. Catherines), Kevin Danschinko (Almonte), and Chris Branov (Bluevale Collegiate in Waterloo) as the other quarterback aspirants. Last year, the Warriors rushed for the greatest number of yards in their history, 1,542. Returnee Tom Chartier, QUAA All-Star and AllCanadian, accounted for 1,031 of those yards to vault him past Dick Aldridge for first place in all-time UW rushing after only three seasons. He has accumulated
1,677 yards
in 274
rushes for a 6.1 average. Of course, an outstanding runner needs an outstanding line in front of him. The Warriors’ offensive line will return intact with two exceptions: missing will be taclde Marshall Bingeman and tight end Brian Rayner. The

Each year, the UW Athletics Department makes available season tickets which provide the holders admission to the four interuniversity activities for which admission is charged: Warrior football, Warrior hockey, Warrior basketbalI, and starting this year Warrior volleyball. All fuLltime UW students receive a season ticket when they pay their student fees. Athletics encourages students’ family members, friends, children, and elementary school groups to attend the home events of these exciting high-calibre interuniversity teams. There is even a special price for high school students. To encourage adult members of the UW community to attend UW’s home events, the department has a special price of $30 for a season ticket. To make it easier for two persons to attend, the cost for two season tickets is $45. Season tickets for high school and elementary students cost only $20 and $10 each respectively (adults will not be admitted with these tickets). If a fan wishes to attend any of the home events of the Warriors, the single game cost is $5 for an adult and $3-4 for a Student. Therefore a season ticket pays for itself early in the

Men’s varsity preview
Bask&ball squad plans return to CIAlk byImprint spmtsstab The University of Waterloo men’s interuniversity teams (known by the nickname Warriors) compete in the Ontario University Athletic Association (OUAA), a member of the Canadian Interuniversity Athletics Union (CIAU). There are 16 Warrior teams wearing the Waterloo colours of black and gold. The Warrior volleyball team is also known as ‘The Black Plague,” symbolizing their habit of infecting the opposition’s hopes with their stonewall defence and deceptive offence. Here is a brief outlook on each team:
WARRIOR BASKETBALL Head coach: Don McCrae After finishing 5th in the OUAA West in 1990-91, this year the Warrior cagers should finish in the top three and probably will be nationally ranked.

WARRIOR CROSS-COUNTRY Head coach: Brent Mclhrlane The graduation of provinciallyranked runner Paul Ernst will be a concern this season. Team Mvp Mark Ferguson wiU be joined by some pro-
