Fed AGM next week by Dave Thomson Imprint staff All full-tims undergraduate students who have paid their Federation of Student’s fee and are interested or concerned about the operation or finances of the Federation are encouraged to attend the Fed Annual General Meeting this Tuesday, November 26 at 7:30 pm in the Campus Centre Great Hall, If you have paid your Fed fee, you are entitled to vote on their proposed budget, bylaw changes, and other issues that may come up. One of the main items is approval of the Federation’s budget proposal, which will likely contain cutbacks of funds to many of the Federation services and boards. Although the notice of intent revisions to the

Board (see Nov. 15 issue of Imprint}, including changing the name to the “Gender Issues Board,” that proposal wiIl be withdrawn at the meeting and a different amendment put forward. After meeting with some students and members of the Women’s Centre, Vice-President, University Affairs Lsa Brice decided that it would be better to simply incorporate a “Gender Relations Commission” into the Board. There currently are three cornmissions operating under WIB: Safety, Events, and Campaigns. Brice said that the idea stemmed from the positive feedback they received after doing acquaintance rape seminars in the residences at the beginning of this term and a desire “to get more men involve< with educating other men about what women’s issues are.”

WIB Chair Kim Creed hopes that the commission will help lo “increase dialogue between sexes.” She said &at its mandate will include the conducting of acquaintance rape seminars, getting more men involved, and educating people about the different socialization that each sex goes through when growing up. As well, the commission will be co-chaired by a woman and a man.

inmwse diu&gue between the sews The rest of the proposed bylaw changes are just housekeeping measures that are a result of a restructuring of positions within the Federation of Students, according to &ice. If you plan to attend the meeting, remember to bring your student card, and show up before 7:30 pm to register as a voter.

Social acceptability by Dave Thomson Imprint staff Guelph Provincial The Courthouse was packed with reporters and supporters last Friday, November 15 for the ongoing saga of whether or not Gwen Jacob is guilty of indecent exposure. On July 19 of this year, Ms. Jacob took her shirt off on her way home 4rom school, and was arrested by police after they received a complaint. ’ I The tweand-a-half-hour trial began at 2:15 pm last Friday with the Crown Attorney Owen Haw calling arresting officer Sergeant Robert Mullin to testify. When questioned about why he arrested her, he stated that she was only arrested because she was a woman, and that “I don’t believe it is morally right for a lady to walk around with her breasts exposed.” Sergeant Maurice Obergen and Officer Ilona Wicinski, who were also on the scene, gave testimony stating that they felt it was not socially accept. able for women to walk around in public without wearing a top. All of the officers conceded that they would not have charged a man for walking around without a top on. Mrs. Dianne Pettifer, the origina complainant, stated that “I think it’s rude and disgusting.. . totally disgustUpon cross-examination .by ing.” defense lawyer Jeff Wright, Pettifer was asked what the difference was between women baring breasts in public and in strip joints. Her reply was that “it’s their job” in a strip club and therefore airight, but “not in a public street.” Ms. Joanne Snacr, a neighbour of Pettifer’s and another witness, elicited laughter from Gwen’s supporters when she stated her belief that “a woman’s breasts are meant to be with her husband.” Snarr also suggested that the sight of a topless woman wasn’t appropriate for children on the street. The defense called Gwen Jacob to the stand to state her view of that day’s events. It didn’t differ much from everyone else’s, except for a couple of coIourful embellishments. She testified, for example, that Mr. Pettifer sat down in a lawn chair with a beer, and yelled to her “turn around - I want to see if they’re better than my wife’s.” When asked by Crown Attorney Owen Haw why she removed her

Orr describes dangers of education by Teresa Kennedy Imprint staff Seventy post-secondary students from campuses across Canada came together at the University of Waterloo to share ideas about environmental concerns on campus during a “garbage-free” conference from November 15 to 17. The theme of the second annual Canadian Unified Student Environmental Network (CUSEN) conference was “Campus as Biosphere: Re-evaluating Our Education.” Over the weekend, students discussed ways of healing and controlling damage done to the environment by looking at campus life as a microcosm of the world. Workshops centered on such issues as food, water, energy, materials management, landscape design, the classroom, and crosscuItura1 education. During the conference, participating students exercised environmental responsibility by eating vegetarian meals produced locally, and using cloth napkins and Tupperware dishes. Most meeting rooms used during the conference were naturally illuminated, and C USEN provided fuel-efficient transportation for local outings. The conference kicked off last Friday morning when a pane1 of representatives from four student networks: Environmental Youth Alliance, Canadian Student Pugwash, Youth Working Group on Environmental and Development, and Youth ‘92 Secretariat (Canadian Youth Foundation) met in the Great Hall of the Campus Centre to discuss student activism, After the panel dis-

cussion, Dr. David Orr, Director of Environmental Studies, Oberlin College, Ohio spoke on “The Dangers of Education.” Orr, who initiated the “Campus as Biosphere” concept, set the tone for the conference in his talk by placing higher education into a greater social context. 01-r compared the current environmental situation to World War II, saying that we are waging war against the natural world and that “we are winning the environmental crisis” through ecological holocaust. Orr cautioned students against the dangers of accepting the educational system without exercising social and described three skepticism, dangers, The first danger Orr warned against was of being trained to be “more clever than wise.” He cont-rasted “fragmentary and short-term” cleverness with “systematic and longterm” wisdom, encouraging students to develop long-range sensibilities that will help them visualize the effects of their immediate -actions with respect to the environment. Orr described the second danger of education as the tendency of students to look for a career before receiving a calling. “You can’t find a calling inside a career, but you can find a career within a calling,” Orr said. The final danger Orr mentioned was one of relevancy. “Everything is fundamentally relevant,” he said. “Earth’s vital signs are not good.” OK told students that they need to learn to think in patterns and systems in order to find solutions to environ-

Gwen Jacob: ‘1 didn’t behave any differently with my shirt oif than I would with my shirt on”. Check out the stick-person with breasts, on her t-shirt. Photo by Dave Thomson shirt on that day, Jacob responded that it was a hot day and “I decided 1 would be more comfortable without a top on, so I removed it.” She added that “I didn’t behave any differently with my shirt off than I would with my shirt on.” Jacob disputed Haw’s references to female breasts as sexual organs, arguing that they were mammary glands signifying the maturing of a woman as well as a secwndary sex feature, such as body hair on a male. Jacob performed very well under cross-examination, forcing Haw to backtrack, make clarifications, and establish the meanings of different words or phrases (such as”organs”or “errands”). When ‘Haw asked her if

female breasts had sexual connotations, Jacob replied: “So do my feet.” At one point, Haw became somewhat flustered and asked her if she was deliberately trying to misunderstand him. Near the end of the day, Judge Bruce Payne was attempting to clarify what Jacob perceived as the difference between women showing their breast5

in public

and in a strip

joint. When Gwen replie@ that men pay money to see it in a strip joint, Judge Payne responded: “but if they hang around Gordon street, they can get it for nothing.” The trial will continue,and likely con elude un December 2.

The University of Waterloo’s annual journal of student writing has a new look. Begun in 1982 as P~~~h<lu.s,changed in 1987 to Orllirru, the publication has a new name and editorial stance for 1992. Titled Phomk A Fkstivd qf Stuthr Wn’tittgc this year’s journal will be accepting writ&n material of all stripes. Shirley Moore and Tammy Knezic, this year’s editors, are looking to make the publication accessible to the whole university community. ‘Traditionally,“says Moore, “we’ve concentrated on poetry and short prose pieces, but this year we’d like to open the book to other types of writing.” Not sure what UW students want in their journal, Moore and Knezic are expanding the format of Phumiv to include creative non-fiction, criticism, even graffiti. “Basically, anything written,” says Knezic. PhucjL~ will also be accepting original artwork and photographs. Under pressure from the Federation of Students to make the pubtication accountable lo the entire student body, the editors encourage students in all faculties to contribute. Over the nine years of its history, the journal has been an important outlet for UW’s student% creative juices, providing WV’s writers a first opportunity to see their names in print.

George Elliot CIarke, a UW grad and author of I4+lltrll ~illls, a collection of poetry focussing on Acadian blacks, was published in Po&rrrs in 1983. Submissions can be sent to the Fed Office (CC235), care of Shirley Moore and Tammy Knezic (CC235). The deadline for submissions is December 20,1991. Phocwix will be available in local bookstores and through the Federation of Students in late Februarlp or early March. *a-

On October 25, 1991, Ortiijrc), the English Society and the Writer in Residence Program hosted Bloodcud Aphonms, a new literary journal of short fiction based in Toronto. Billed as workshop and reading, the evening provided student writers a chance to meet the editor and publisher of a serious literary publication, Tim Palezcney and Same Hiyate, and two of its featured writers, Gary Levy and Christine Slater. The evening progressed to the Grad House for cigarettes, beer and talk of writing. Those interested in more of the same are encouraged to attend the weekly writing workshops at St. Jerome’s hosted by the English Society and Greg Cook, UW’s writer in residence. The workshops are held Wednesday evenings, 7-9 pm in room 221 at St. Jerome’s.

Dear Stuck

There are two things that you can do to prevent this in the future. First, include all the tenants’ names on the telephone and utilitv bills. This shows that you are not the only person legally responsible *for paying these bills. Second, make all tenants sign an agreement stating that they are responsible for paying all the long-distance phone calls that they make and their share of the utilities. This should assist you in proving responsibiIity of others to pay the utility bills.

If you need a lawyer’s help but can’t pay for it, you may be able to get Legal Aid. Legal Aid pays for all or part of your lawyer’s fees depending c)n your financial situation. Most sbdents are eligible, You can apply for Legal Aid at 50 Queen Street North, Suite 830 in Kitchener. Call 743-4306 first to make an appointment. Once you have obtained your Legal Aid certificate you may choose any lawyer who will accept your case. If you are ineligble for hgal Aid, there is another alternative, called duty council, available at the court house on the day of the trial. Duty councillors are lawyers in the first seven years of their practice who must spend a few hours a week offering their services for free at the court house. They will take your case, but they won’t have a chance to prepare for it. Good luck in court.

The most rt~asonnhit~ prictx is the eas\ part! C~mip~~rt~ our prices at Sc~;ops, the Campus Shop, the Bomber, and Fed Hail to anywhere else. The difficult part is the best possible product. Who defines “the best possible product”? YOU DO! There are several ways for us as an organization to find out what students want. Some decisions are based on instinct or trial and error while most decisions are made based on market research, such as focus groups, surveys, competitor observation, market trends, and reviewing customer and staff feedback. We, the student, own this corporation. The Feds are here to represent you and see to your concerns. If you feel uncomfortable telling a server what a great or shitty job they did, and you don’t feel comfortable discussing it with the respective manager, for Murphy’s sake come up and talk to us! Well even offer you a coffee. Listening to customer feedback or dealing with customer complaints is the most effective methti of measuring our success at meeting your definition of “the best possible product.” I don’t mind reading feedback in the paper, but it would be much more constructive if the Feds were included in the distribution of both appreciative and critical letters.

So, please make us directly aware as well, Both the Bombshelter and Fed Hall have made changes in the past to meet student wants. The Bomber introduced Rock ‘n’ Roll Wedncsdays, free matinees liktb Mike Something and Paul Jamt3, allowing feet on chairs, Alterna Gvtl Tuesdays, pub decor, and the barbeque and deli bar, Fed Hall introduced pool tables, darts, and games, thcb shocltvr whet+ the draft express, coat check, nightclub lighting, and lunch and banquet service We, the studtlnts at Watt&q art* incredibly fortumtv to own and operate two pubs which art’ both recognized among the- btbst ttw student pubs in Canada.

l cont’d. from page 3* mental problems, and that “a sense of wonder is critical to saving anything.” He toid students that the “way Iearning occurs is as important as what you learn,” and encouraged development of the whole person rather than just the analytic mind. In his talk, Orr described the campus as a system. He told students that they can aid environmental recovery by learning about their campus and starting the healing process there. Orr said that by reducing global problems to a human level, solutions can be found that wilI “ripple through the system and solve other problems.” “Economics is not an excuse to avoid doing what is right,” he said. Campuses have great buying power, he said, and that can be used as a leverage to change. Orr also said that

the “campus as biosphere” concept has to extend to the curriculum for change to occur. Urr described changes as “not cosmetic, but fundamental changes in learning on campus.” Orr concluded by encouraging dialogue on and among campuses, telling students that we have to be able to “name the problems before we can solve them.” The first CUSEN conference took place last year at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, and began the dialome for a national network of post-secondary, student-based environme& groups. CUSEN now acts as an environmental information and resource cenke through which students across Canada can share their knowledge and skills, For more information about CUSEN, please contact Birch Behmann or Colin Umbach in the Fed Office, phone 885-1211 ext. 6299.

Woman grad student pleased with fidd by Indira Geer * special to Imprint

“You can really do what you want to do. You’re the one who really limits yourself, not your environment or the people around you, but you, yourself.” These inspirational words are Kathleen Fraser’s motto about her career in science. Fraser, a 24-year-old Ottawa native, is a recent graduate of the University of Waterloo who is determined to finish her master’s degree in mechanical engineering by next April. Right now, she is completing the last of four required courses and plan on writing her thesis fairly soon. The topic of her thesis is natural convection heat exchangers. This has applications. to solar domestic hot water systems such that solar energy can be used to heat domestic hot water tanks. A system like this is currently available but with a longterm pay-back of ten years. Fraser is working on improvements that will optimize the efficiency of the system. To do this, she writes a computer simulation program to approach the problem and then performs some physical experiments to validate the simulation program. Fraser prefers graduate studies to undergraduates studies. why? “There’s flexibility in that you direct your own studies,” she says. “you’re under the care of your supervisor and even though your interests have to coincide with his, there’s still room to direct your own studies. You’re in charge of your own project. I guess I see it (grad studies) as being halfway between undergrad studies and an engineering consultant.. . you can think of it as being a project manager for one big project.” Fraser decided to pursue graduate studies because she found she ivanted more in-depth knowledge and experience in mechanical engineering before starting in a job situation. But what about the stress level? “‘Graduate studies is really an excellent environment,” she responds. “The stress level is comparable to undergrad but it is more self-inflicted. You know your deadlines and what you have to get done and it’s up to you. It’s all what you make it.” And grad versus undergrad courses?“The grad courses have a heavier

interesting as a result. You choose to take the courses that you really like and you have more time, as opposed to an undergrad level, to study.” Fraser is funded by her supervisor through a National Science and Research Council Engineering (NSERC) grant and recommends to any student who would like to pursue graduate s&dies, but who do not qualify for NSERC or an Ontario Graduate Scholarship, like herself, to get involved in a fourth-year research project that could possibly lead to a potential master’s thesis. If you show your supervisor that you can do the work, most probably he or she will fund you on a graduate level. Aside from grad studies, Fraser is involved in a soccer team that she says loses more often than wins. She emphasizes that the stereotype of grad students being workaholics, stuck in the library in the wee hours of KatMeen Fraser workload but it’s because you have to . the morning is a fallacy.

fireside chat by Peter Brown One of the only things that Imprint and the Federation of Students has truly in common is that we are both corporations, and are thus subject to a strange beast called the Annual General Meeting. This is a session to which all fee-paying undergraduate students are allowed, and even invited, to attend. Of course, not many do, Only a handful of interested citizens usually show up to peer at the requisite financial statements and bylaw changes. You’ll have that chance next Tuesday, November 30 at 7:30 pm when the Federation holds their Annual General Meeting in the CC Great Hall. Imprint doesn’t have half the work cut out for us that the Feds do, since our quorum (something around 20) is easily attainable with just our staff, while the Feds need to lasso 50 unfortunate individuals to hold the meeting. This is why we can hold ours in the comfy confines of our sumptuous off ices, while they must comedown from the mount to the Great Hall of the Campus Centre. Even unsuspecting studiers at the dark perimeter of the room sometimes get handed voting cards - and all hell breaks loose if attendees get bored halfway through and decide to go AWOL. You see, if the number of voting members falls below quorum, the meeting cannot continue. Let’s see, what else do you need to know? Well, there’s the door prizes. Of course, I’m talking about the past meetings that I’ve been to. Perhaps, in this age of fiscal restraint, such perks will be eliminated. Why not show up and find out?! One of the main activities at any general meeting of a corporation is the tabling of a financial statement for the past fiscal year and a budget for the current or future one. For those of us who do not regularly attend student council -meetings, this is a great opportunity to look at the books of our student government, if only to place the recent dust-up about the Safety Van into perspective. How many of you know how much the Federation of Students receives in fees each year or the size of its budget? Of course, there are other issues that are decided at general meetings. Any changes to bylaws of a corporation must be approved by the membership of that corporation - in the case of the Federation, Imprint, and WPIRG, this means you, if you’re a full-time undergrad who has paid all of these fees. Last winter, Imprint ridiculed the newlyelected Federation executive by pointing out that getting more votes than your opponent in a Federation election didn’t really mean much when only 17 per cent of eligible undergraduate voters actually cast a ballot (ya, so we supported the losers . . . so what?) Well, that’s nothing compared to the power imbued in the people who go to a general meeting. The Federation’s quorum of 50 people represents about one-third of a per cent of the 15,000 full-time undergrads and it is this 50 people who can approve changes to the bylaws of the corporation. As recently as a year ago, those potential bylaw changes would have determined who became the Fed president after John Vellinga resigned. If there is a lesson here, I hope that I am neafing it. By ig.noring student politics altogether, you are failing to involve yourself in

decision-making that can affect your quality of life as a student. And that, as they say, is that.

When Abbie Hoffman, ’60s activist, founder of Woodstock Nation, and leader of the Chicago Seven, was found in his apartment back in 1989, dead of an apparent suicide, the &w York Times reported Abbie had told one of his friends that he found the 1980s “irrelevant.” Having spent most of the ’70s tinderground, hiding from a drug charge, Abbie was at the time of his death enjoying a bit of a revival. He had appeared with Amy Carter, daughter of the former US president, protesting the CIA’s involvement in Central America and was working with members of his rural community to stop large scale - development projects. This was Abbie’s turf, bringing people together to fight the system. But by 1989, it seemed to Abbie that his life’s work was for naught. The system had won. Abbie was destined for the fringe, his vision of a new Jefferson-styled social justice relegated to the history books. The Republican machine had rolled to a third straight decisive victory in 1988, pulling into its ranks a whole generation of college students. Abbie was distraught. Woodstock was enjoying a revival, celebrating: its 20th anniversary, but Woodstock Nation was still a utopian twinkle in a dreamer’s eye. Back in the Sixties, there had been a will for social change, It wasn’t only hoped that the world would become a better and easier place to live in, it was expected, demanded. By the late-Eighties, what Paul Simon called “the age

reactionary twist on that still-as-yet-unrealized hope for a better world. A higher standard of living now meant “read my lips, no new taxes,” not less poverty, fewer rapes, equal opportunity regardless of gender, class, or race. Social violence, in fact, rather than decreasing over the past 20 years, has increased drama tically. The Great Communal Dream of the Sixties collapsed into the Decade of Selfish Gluttony, the Reagan Eighties, Bush’s New World Order. . Now we know the Great Communal Dream wasn’t all it was cracked up to be, right? Or it would have lasted. We’d all be popping LSD with our morning coffees and walking outside to tangerine trees and marmalade skies, right? All would tie groovy, but it ain’t. So what happened? In 7%~ Efecwic K&-Aid Acid Tust, Tom Wolfe recounts the adventures of Ken Kesey, author of Onto b&w Over the Ctwkw :s Nat, and the Merry Pranksters, Kesey’s band of happygo-lucky proto-hippies. The Merry Prankster hip and hop and drop acid, stage happenings, and freak as many square people as they can find out around California. Wolfe, his own social vision outlined in his attempt at at Dickensonian novel, 7%~ Bor@~ qf thr Vanities, treats Kesey’s band with light satire . . .

“They’re off on their own freak,’ Hassler continues, ‘and it may not look like much, but they’re starting to transcend the bullshit. There’s this old trinity, Power, Position, Authority, and why should they worship these old gods and those forms of authority “1 Transcend the bullshit?

The need for this plan is nuta reflection of the Party’s poiicies, but rather to guarantee the rejection of racial extremists. Youthful political parties, like Reform, can sometimes attract such types. Yet Reform will continue to reject racism. Reform party policy explicitly rejects the inclusion of race as a poIicy criterion. This is reflected in our constitutional and immigration policies. I invite Mr. Atwal or any other individual who is skeptical about the policies of the Reform Party to examine the party objectively and in greater detail before coming to such superficial conclusions as was contained in the article.

By the time I get to Manitoba To the editor,

Mea culpa b the editor, I feel I must respond to last week’s feature ditorial as the focus of the article was placed In Federation Hall. The rea1 problem was not tith Federation Hall, but with me. I peronally take responsibility for the event that occurred at Federation Hall on Thursday, November 6,1991, and it was by no means a eflection of Federation Hall as a whole. When ne author of the letter, Emily Sutherland, tated “Fed is F***ed” she should have more ccurately stated “Adele, our server, did not ;ive us satisfactory service.” Correct me if I m wrong Emily, but that was the poirlt of the Stter. I sincerely apologize for my unprofessional ervice that day. I was admittedly more conerned with preparing the bars for Homeoming weekend than I was in providing you nd your friend with the quality service rederation Hall management expects from heir employees, May I point out that a more effective manLer of dealing with any problem you or anybrie else has with or at Federation Hall is to discuss it with a manager. These individuals vould be more than willing to listen to your oncems and are obligated by their position o take necessary measures to rectify any problem situation. And just so you don’t get the impression hat 1am that unprofessional all the time, I was Jso the server at the last Imprint staff dinner reld at Federation. I am assuming that you vere there as you are a part of Imprint staff. At hat time I was complimented for the good ervice I provided, so I hope I haven’t totally uined my reputation as a proficient Jarstaff.

Tua culpa ro the editor,

For the last few years we have read the section and it always seems to be filled with complaints from angry patrons >f Fed Hall. These complaints are soon FolIowed by some sort of response from the Door Staff along the lines of last week’s “No SorilIas Allowed.” Typically the patron was ticked out for no apparent reason and the zIoor staff says that either the person was too drunk to remember what happened, or that if 101.1would waIk a mile in their shoes then you Nould understand. On the Friday night of Homecoming we ‘volunteered” to assist with the MIC/WIC 3ub at Fed. On Thursday night Chuck cllcMullan outlined what we were to do and low to do it. At this time he emphasized that Nhatever actions we would have to take should be with the utmost courtesy. We both vegan our shift with open minds as to the whaviour of the staff. At the end of the night we had both deternined that the door staff were (for lack of a wtter word) a bunch of gorillas. On repeated xcasions we observed the type of behaviour hat the door staff has denied, including :hrowing people out for just falling down Nhile showing no signs of drunkenness, has;ling people, argkng with patrons, and nstigating an argument to the point of not illowing someone into the establishment. One other “verbal altercation” arose as a mkon attempted to retrieve his coat and tried o explain to the staff member that he had lost lis ticket It seemed apparent that the staff

imprintforum

membtir had only to explain that Fed Hall policy was not to hand out jackets unless a ticket was shown, instead the staff member seized the moment and treated the patron as il he were a small child. The patron described his jacket, this action served only to draw more retribution for not having left ID in a pocket. An action rich in courtesy this was not, and the thought that this staff member is a supposed academic peer of ours just makes us cringe. Now neither of us were drunk and we were “walking a mile in their shoes”, so these arguments can not be used against us. Another of the typical arguments used is that the door staff is just following the liquor laws of Ontario. Why does Fed Hall seem to have so many more difficulties than other bars as a result of this legislation? Maybe Fed gets the ‘riff raff’ that are unacceptable at other bars. Maybe Fed should be more willing to listen to their clients, who knows maybe a more courteous approach would remove red ink.

Kevin McDonald Mike Cash

Mea culpa To the editor,

Well, I’ve finally done it. All the stupid things I’ve done in my life have finally caught up to me. I went and got myself arrested. Like most people who’ve made it to university I’ve been inclined to drink when I go out to clubs and parties. Well it was on one of these nights when my inhibitions had left me that I took it too far. I broke the law. It was Halloween night and I had gotten waisted at my place. Don’t ask me why because to this day I don’t know what caused me to do it but I ended uptaking some glasses from Federation Hall and slipping them into my coat pockets as I was leaving. I remember being patted down on my way out but I had my coat in my hand so they never checked it. It wasn’t until the cops stopped me as I was walking home through the parking lots on Phillip Street that it actuaIly dawned on me that I had these glasses. The cops stopped me because as I was walking through the parking lot I stumbled through a parking gate. A few seconds after I broke the gate arm off, the cops drove up and arrested me. Well I’m sure you can imagine how an engineering student would feel being faced with criminal charges since someone with a criminal record cannot become a professional engineer. Needless to say that I was realIy scared that I had ruined my whole future because of something stupid like this. Well the poiice ended up only fining me for the cost of the guard arm but they left it up to the manager of Fed to see if he wanted to press charges. I went and talked to him the next day and he decided to not press charges but instead, I was to work at Fed for two nights. This was to compensate the manager for his glasses and to send out a message to other people who knew why I was there. Although this might sound strange, I’m actually @ad that this whole incident hap pened because the way it turned out, this whole ordeal really made me reevaluate my I’m not saying that 111never drink 1 morals. again or that I’ve become a saint but I feel that I’ve become much more responsible and con- 1 I scientious about everything that I do.

This letter is in response to the article entitled “Friendly Fascists” (Imprint, Oct. 18, 1991) dealing with the Reform Party. Mr Atwal’s article is a gross distortion of the history, policies and leadership of the Reform Part)l. The foundation of the author’s argument rests upon hJr. Gairdner’s “association” with the “executive committee of the Ontario wing” of the party. This claim is unequivocally false. The members of the national Executive Council from Ontario are Robert Armstrong, Colyne Gibbons, Reg Gosse and Jack Hurst. Mr. Gairdner has no formal association with _ the party. Thus, Mr. Atwal’s attempt to indict the Reform Party based upon some “association” with him is baseless. Further, the claim that the Party ti racist is unfounded. The Reform Party has developed a plan to ferret out any persons advocating or promoting racist attitudes. This plan was developed in conjunction with minority ethnic and religious groups; namely, the Calgary Jewish community, the Vancouver Chinese community, the East Indian community of Winnipeg and the aboriginal community of Beaver River. This plan has four components: - election and support of Party leaders who reject racism; an invitation to members of racial minorities to examine Party ptilicies and consider active membership in the Party; - rejection by Party Assemblies and Constituency Associations of any policy proposals which would discri&&e ggainst people on the basis of race; - questioning of potential candidates for

name to the “Gender Issues Board.” Many women will say “will women’s rights be pushed to the back burner - becoming a non-issue?” This wilI not be the case - the continuing issue between the two genders will always be - Equality! By changing the name, there is a possibility of increased involvement from women and men who may believe women’s groups are extremist or radical. Many universities, ie. Brock and Cuelph, have established Gender Issues Boards. Surprisingly they have massive support from the students male and female. VVIB’s mandate for the year, as stated by the WE5 chair in the Aug. 30 edition of Imprint: “WIB is committed to equality between males and females from all walks of life.. , changing social structure is not an easily done task - it requires the cooperation of both sexes.” Let’s make a truly representative statement by changing the name WIB to Gender issues Board. To have one group supporting one sex is alienating the group who need to be educated and is at the root of the problem. Change the name of WIB to GIB. If anythin& it will create curiosity. Curiosity will lead to involvement. Involvement will lead to education, will lead to change! Isn’t that the goal?! I am not attempting to change the structure of WIB - I just want it to be more representative of all that are concerned* Shun McLean Chair, Human Rights Board

1am writing to respond to the above article that was anonymously placed in my mailbox. Thank you whoever left it. The article dues a great job at illustrating the kind of suppression that women have experienced throughout history. Never-the-less, I must clarify my position on “women’s issues” as well as the “women’s issues board” for the person who must have heard part of a story. The prejudice and ridicule that women continue to face must be stopped. Women’s Issues Board is an excellent organization which is working hard to educate and enlighten men in this area. However, my area of concern is not the mandate of WIB, but the name ‘Women’s Issues Board” (and other women’s groups). For years women have banded together striving toward equality of women and men. This something that needed to be done. There are hundreds of women’s organizations for basic Human Rights. Is it time that both men and women work together toward equality? Equality is not strictly a women’s issue. Physical and sexual abuse is not just a women’s issue - in all cases the issues involve men and their attitudes toward women. It is time for women to help men become more involved in their impaired attitudes. WlB can increase men’s involvement in the movement toward equality by changing their

All across Ontario, as “citizens” in rural and urban areas cast their ballots on a cold November day, a hint of winter cast a pall in the grey skies. And in the most important municipal area, the City of Toronto, law and order and economic renewal were speciously mandated. To the Grey and Stale, the victory celebration must have sounded like a symphony of democratic music orchestrated by the will of the people. Oh what a big lie. We are no such entity as a “citizen” in the twilight of our century, but merely parodies of a Hellenic ideal. We are but Platonic shadows, populating some bureaucratic nightmare of Orwellian dystopia. We are abstractions: constituents, voters, taxpayers, or in the cynic’s eye, economic slaves, “dupes.” Inorganic as the world we live in, our affinity is no more than that real, metabolic, face-to-face arena of the body politic, but as sporadically selfinterested monads, sycophantic to the core. We fecklessly drown amidst the faceless tyranny of statecraft and its hypostasis in the nation-state; our own Cambodia with its itinerant corporate killing fields. That democracy and republicanism have become confused into a representative democracy, divests the former of its latent means to attain a broad human freedom and eternalizes the hierarchical slant of the latter. Indeed, the former loses its meaning as it is absorbed by the latter. The history of ideas is crushed under the weight of commodities acquired by the egotized individuai whose neurotic personality rebels in senseless violence or ambivalent quietism. And the light of citizenship is extinguished as the human-scale thatis the city vanishes like the first snow flakes of winter,

Murray Bookchin suggests the “elusive citizen” did exist. If we hold onto the vision of democratic Greece of two miIlennia ago, the medieval communes after the fall of Rome, the New England town meetings of the 176Os, or the sons L&~Z~Y of the Parisian radical sections of 1793-4, it may be our only chance of pulling back the elusive citizen peering over the empty abyss. By recognizing the inequalities that existed contemporaneously with those instances - for example, the Athenian treatment of women, slaves, and outsiders we can bring forth a truly effective democratic praxis. If anything these municipal elections underlie the importance of our institutions and the powerlessness of the enlightened individual. The lobbyists and self-interest groups are not reflections of our complexity of modem society nor the grassroots democratic empowertient it fosters, but the pervasive irrationality of our times. We need not be the mass of men and women whose lives of quiet desperation closes out this century with -I a whimper.

The meaning of what forms the material reality of a city is quickly receding with the agricultural and natural lands that urbanization “concretizes” with its icons of progress. This material reality, the self-sufficient individual, united in an ethical community with other individuals, encompassing the gamut of human nature, j ts proclivities, and its eccentricities, is need to viscerate the polis. That this imperative is lost on the social engineers and the representatives of our will, is scary.

Animals have no rights by Sandy Atwal. Imprint staff Being a vegetarian or a vegan is the latest manifestation of political correctness to plague the university community. It is an issue that simply will not go away despite the fact that it is unfounded morally and logically. A fine example of this is Phillip Chee’s column last week “Meat is Murder.” I know Phillip; he was in a class of mine a few years ago, and he is an intelligent, amicable fellow, which is why it pains me to see him being sucked into the big vegetarian lie. To be a vegetarian is a personal decision; it is one made by many intelligent people everywhere and one that (it seems) is gaining acceptance. But what it is not (and what it pretends to be) is a morally correct pattern of behaviour such that under it eating meat can be likened to eating people. C hee’s article used the old anthropomorphism method (“Charlie” the Tuna, “Bessy” the cow) as well as an appeal to the authority of Thoreau, neither of which hold their weight under even light scrutiny. We’ll deal with the question of it being more efficient to be vegetarians later but the big, important question before us right now is why we should attribute animals the same rights and respect that we attribute to humans. What reason do we have for giving animals any rights at all? The answer will necessarily be tied to our conception of morality and why we shouldn’t just do what we want. There are two basic answers as to why we should give other people rights and to avoid any complicated terms I will simply call them answer one and answer two. In both of these closely related answers, we can apply morality to people, but neither of them apply to animals.

Answer one is a respect for other people’s freedom in that our freedom is our property and you can’t crossover into the boundary of that which is mine. Morally, this translates into “I should be able to do whatever I want so long as it doesn’t interfere with your equal right.” I respect these rights because of the person’s ability to think, reason, et cetera. I don’t attribute these rights to a rock because it’s a thing; it doesn’t have anything of value to respect. If vegetarianism is to be considered a reasonable thing to do, then we must somehow attribute these people-freedoms to animals. The reason why we ~11 ‘Eattribute rights of liberty to animals is simply because animals don’t illustrate the ability to make decisions or have anything of interest to let us give them said freedom. Cows don’t have a world-view

intellectual capacity, there’s not ~WCIU$ difference between the average cow, pig, et cetera, or a spider or an insect. Some exceptions might be made for a few dolphins and my friend’s dog Stoker but even that’s questionable.

But say we consider the almost nonexistent case that they do have the ability of self-reflection. The second situation is that our morality depends upon an agreement, perhaps unstated, between people to respect each other’s rights and a sort of contract is made up to show exactly what the morality is that they are talking about. Guided by selfinterest, this (theoretically) protects us from the people’s unrestrained desires. But the key here is a contract made between two

Deathfor no reasonis dinner

with which they can deliberate the meaning of their bovine existence. They don’t consider their past or their future and so they’re not losing all of their “future” when I kill them because they don’t have one in any real sense. There’s not enough to them upstairs. They can probably think and feel pain, but why should that itself matter? There’s nothing that can juse us giving them rights. There’s nothing I have to lose by killing them and a full stomach to gain by eating them. Simply being alive doesn’t preclude my bequeathing them any rights or else we’d have to include vegetables, trees, and other living creatures. In terms of relevant (in the moral sense)

individuals. If one party, for example the pig, can’t communicate what he wants and how he wants to be treated then there’s no reason why we shouldn’t fry him. I know all of this sounds inhuman, and you’re right. Animals aren’t people for both of these very important (but not my own) reasons. The above two moral theories (perhaps recognizable as Libertarianism and Contractarianism if I haven’t totally butchered them (no pun intended)) aren’t specifically designed to leave animals out of the picture. The reason they do so is simply because moral theories CWI i be applied to animals, not that I personally choose to leave them out.

346 King Street, W. Kitchener, Ontario Campus Court - next to UW 140 University Avenue, West

The pains of including animals in such theories might be illustrated by one small example. Even if we decided to give animals rights, we would then have no allowance for domestication. If they have rights, they have the right to be free from enslavement by people. If the scope of this doesn’t seem at first evident consider that to not kill animals at all would leave us helpless to control packs of animals that would starve themselves into existence as is happening in Canada’s north as we speak. Vegetarians can’t have it both ways. If we give animals rights then we give them rights that fit into some applicable framework or we just have special pleading. Finally, there is Chee’s “buying hamburgers from McDonald’s kills the rain forest” theory. While it’s not evident that that is even true or important, it’s certainly not something which would make us start eating celery for a living. After all, driving cars creates poflution. Using fluorescent lights sucks out your vitamin D. Printing books destroys some trees, and so on. Everything we do has a hazard to it and right now people want Big Mats and it’s their choice. It’s your choice to try and inform them and let them make their decision, but it’s not up to you to make that decision for them. People are allowe their own choices no matter how ill-conceived we may think them until it can reasonabty be proven that those decisions are affecting us. As a final word, just so the Imprint readership not think me a callous coldhearted bastard, I don’t like the idea of animal experimentation, or the thought of factory farming and Peter Gabriel’s “Shock the Monkey”video sot-t of freaks me out. But the point, which I think is an important one, is that I realize this is an emotional reaction. I do not delude myself into thinking that animals have rights. Every individual must make up their own minds for themselves and other people’s freedoms must be respected and not railroaded by pseudo-ethics.

Before you start, get into the right frame of mind. Many students looking for summer jobs send resumes, do some telephoning, then hope for the best (I did).

what their client wants. The sanw is true in the job search; you must define the needs of a prospective employer as well as your own needs. The first step in any successful search is to assess yourself. What do you enjoy? What don’t you enjoy? What skills and abilities can you offer an employer? What do you do well? Also, assess your needs: do you want a job in a certain field? In a certain city? How much money would you like to make? Would you like to start your own business, or apply for an overseas job? Answer all of these questions in order to find out what you can offer to an employer and what you want from a summer job. However, remember to be flexible; don’t confine yourself to a specific area of interest. Stay open to new ideas. After you have assessed yourself, start looking for the jobs. The Career Resource Centre (Needles Hall, room 2 115) posts positions in it’s summer job binders in six areas: the private sector, government, Kitchener-Waterloo, camping and recreation, painting (managerial and staff) and tree planting* Think of the types of jobs advertised there. Othel similar companies may also be ir need of summer students. The Career Resource Centre also has a part-time job board (beside the Centre) which may provide leads on part-time summer jobs.

A University of Waterloo researcher has discovered a process that could double the performance of silicon chips found in personal computers and consumer electronics. Prof. Chettypalayam Selvakumar, with the Information Technology Research Centre at UW, uses “conventional technology” rather than the much more expensive methods now used to make silicon-germanium (SiGe) chips. Previously such chips have been created using specialized technique such as molecular beam epitaxy, requiring equipment that costs upwards of $2 million. Selvakumar, an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UW, is supported by ITRC, the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council, and MicroNet, a federa network of centres of excellence.

A University of Waterloo student is one of 10 winners in the annual General Electric Canada Inc. Awards in Engineering Design and Innovation. Jan Krasnodebski, a Canada Scholar studying at UW, will receive the award valued at $1,000. The winners have an “outstanding academic record and have demonstrated exceptional abilities in product and process design dnd innovation.” Dennis Williams, GE Canada chairman, said innovation is the “cutting edge of global competition and Canada needs more of its bt-igh test young people in science and technology to ensure design and engineering breakthroughs.” The GE corporate awards are in addition to the winners’ $2,000 annual Canada Scholarships under a federal program to attract more of the country’s brightest students into undergraduate science and engineering studies.

Exhuming McCarthy by Bryan Smyth special to hqmint Just as soon as US President George Bush proclaimed the end of the war against Iraq, he promptly declared a new war at home. But rather than soldiers with Patriot missiles and cluster bombs, Bush’s new domestic war would instead be fought by media pundits and conservative ideoloees from the lectern and in the press. It was to be an ideological assault against a newly found enemy: “the politically correct” (PC). “(P)olitical extremists roam the land, abusing the privilege of free speech, setting citizens against one another on the basis of their class or race . . .“, Bush said in a May 4 commencement speech at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. He continued: ‘The notion of ‘political COTrectness’ has ignited controversy across the land. Although the movement arises from the laudable desire to sweep away the debris of racism and sexism and hatred, it replaces old

The editors of these publications could not have been surprised, then, when the Washington Post reported in 1987 that ‘The college campus, which a quarter of a century ago became the spawning ground of civil rights activism, now seems to be breeding a new and especially distasteful racism.” Nor in 1989 when the National Institute Against Prejudice and Violence recorded racist incidents against minority &dents, including physical

assauhs, at 125 US campuses. Earlier this year, a student named Douglas Harm made the headlines. Hann was expelled from Brown University in February for tiobting that university’s “hate speech” code. He had tried to provoke a fight by shouting at students: “Fucking r&eels.. . What are vou. a VW

,

And in Mu&an ‘s, Stephan Thernstrom of Harvard University expressed the attitude of beleaguered conservative academics: “(PC) is a new McCarthyism. It is more tightening than the old McCarthyism, which had no support in the academy. Now, the enemy is within.” This idea has been growing in p ularity since Abn Bloom’s 1987 bestseller 3 e Ching of the Amerdcan Mind. Bloom argued that radical movements .from the 1960s are to blame for the de&ning quality and crisis of higher education today. Then in 1989 former L US Education Secretary William Bennett threw the issue into prominence by challenging Stanford’s change in core reading for fresh, which required students book from outside the Western

abortion information, and fuiding for homoerotic art, he also proposes to exempt religious schools from the legislation - leaving, for example, the rights of pro-choice students at schools such as Georgetown and Marquette unprotected. “(Hyde) wants to protect the kind of speech you hate: racist, homophobic and sexist kids of things. He represents the extreme right. . . the people who put the Reagan Revolution in place . . . and they’re coming out for free speech for themselves,” said Jay Miller of the American Civil Liberties Union. Right-wing acrob&ics over free speech, combined with the erosion of affirmative action programs and federal funding cutbacks, have seriously altered the character of US higher I *. eaucauon.

prejudices with new ones. It declares certain topics off-limits, certain expressions off-limits, ‘even certain gestures off-limits.” How much hypocrisy can one person represent? Bush continually sets new standards. When he exploited the Willie Horton hype during the 1988 presidential election, and nowadays when he aggressively attacks “racial quotas” in affirmative action legislation, he doesn’t scruple against “setting citizens against one another on the basis of their class or race.” Nor do Bush’s attempt to ban flag-burning

or to ban ment for seem to off-limits,

funding from the National Endowthe Arts for so-called “obscene” art qualify as declaring “certain topics certain expressions off-limits, even certain gestures ofG.rnits.” And what about the Rust v. SuIlivan decision reached in May by the US Supreme Court? They upheld the infamous “gag rule” which bans employees of federally funded health clinics from even mentioning that abortion exists as an option for pregnant women. If asked point blank about abortion, .they are required to utter the following: “the .$roject does not consider abortion an approp riate method of family planning.” Yet Bush, vatiant defender of “free speech,” threatened to veto moves in the Congress to overturn that decision. What is it then that Bush is endorsing? Obviously a very conditional form of “free speech,” one which would demand substantial ideological conformity over certain issues such as abortion rights, affirmative action, “racial quotas,” family values, and patriotism (ie. Columbus quinticentennial mania) - the stuff of Bush’s 1992 re-election campaign. The practical upshot of not “abusing the privilege of free speech” is the toleration of intolerance. Bigots rejoice in this sort of mixup, which has been fostered on US campuses since

rushed to “his” cause. But the issue is much larger than ?iinn; he merely provided a vivid focal point around which they could mobilize to shift the blame for racism and bigotry from its perpetrators onto

its victims. Jeffrey Hart, a Dartmouth professor, was more critical of Hann’s victims than Harm himself: “We are in danger of creating virtuosos at taking offence . . . people who can find a pea of offence under eight mattresses...” Such trivialization of bigotry is a hallmark of anti-PC hysteria. An all too common complaint is that “special interest groups” are too sensitive. Eugene Genovese believes that “sensitivity” is now a code word “fsr the promulgation of a demagogic political program” ’ and he calls for “counterterrorism” to combat thq PC influence. lv~~~wuuk discovered that “PC

Roger Kimball contributed Radicals to the debate. The “radical

ethos of the sixties has been all too successful,” he lamented. Controversial changes to the university, such as declining standards, curricular changes, new hiring procedures, and enrolment demographics represent “nothing less than the occupation of the cen-

ter by a new academic establishment, the establishment of tenured radicals.” How many “tenured radicals” do you know? The facts belie KimbaIl. In a survey of 35,000 faculty members in the US conducted by the Higher Education Research Institute, 40 per cent described themselves as “moderates”, 37 per cent as “Iiberals”, and 18 per cent as conservatives. cent identified themsehes

In his recent and much-heralded book flhwtl Educuhn, Dinesh D’Souza acknowledged the upward trend in racial incidents. “American campuses have seen an apparent explosion of bigotry in the past few years,” he wrote. But how does DSouza, founding editor of the Dartmouth Review and biographer of Jerry Falwell, account for this? The Hyde-like policies of the Reagan-Bush administration? Quite the opposite. He explains away people like Douglas Hann as someone who was never at ease with affirmative action programs, modifications to curricula, and multicultural awareness campaigns. Because of such programs, a “new censorship” pervades today’s campus, according to D’Souza. They need to be questioned, “but whites cannot really bring them up.” Hence the racial outburst: “When legitimate ness are

Second, having succcthdcd in the first stage, they can justifiably call for special measures to deal with the PC menace that is narrowing scholarship and curtailing fry expression: for example, cutting affirmative action programs, shutting down “grichvanccb factories,” no concessions on thcb canon, cutting minority studies programs. Con~idcr in this light a snippet from Ellen Schreckcr’s N(I Ivory Tower : “Senator McCarthy . , . promised that he would be ‘going into the educational system’and would bo exposing ‘Communists and Communist thinkcbrs’ _. a srbrvicp that hta claimed was one of ‘trying to promote frcudom of thought and cxprr3sion in ct~ttc~:tl.“’ Sound familiar? ‘Thcbspcctre of McCarthy is indeed roaming the land these days, but it is not a bunch of soft t&ties masquerading as an insidious new “thought police.” It is the antiPC cruhadc its,utf which should be called “The Sitenccrs.” Like McCarthy, D’Souza and the anti-K crusade arc’ backed by the governmvnt of the world’s most powerful nation. And thv major media too, which easily switched from bringing us the inverted world of the Gulf War to bringing us the inverted world of campus politics. To portray a loose net of activists who challenge the conservative ideas on campuses as the new McCarthyism is nothing short of D’Siouza toocriticixzcs speech ct)d~~s. But his position bctmys a striking rescmbtancc to that of those vtbry administrators that hcbaccuses of buckling btbncbc>th the PC drhmands. For D’Souza argutbs that scaparatc organizations like Black student uni(!ns, women’s centrcs, and gay and lesbian groups have become “institutionat grievance factories” through which activists seek “the moral capital of victimhood.” D’Souza goes on to demonstrate the skills of inversion that have propelled him to the head of the anti-PC crusade: victimhood becomes a “Ultimately, truncheon with which minority activists may intimidate non-minorities - thus the victim becomes the victimizer while continuing to enjoy superior moral credentials.”

Clever stuff, but untrue. The speech and behavior codes that have raised the ire of certain fairweather friends of the First Amendment do not represent the success of any radical movement. Rather, following several racist incidents on prominent campuses in the late 198Os, anti-racism groups came together and pressed administrations for various svstemic changes: 1 for example, increased and faculty recruitment and minority minority studies programs. Rather than address such demands as raised by the activists, university administrators passed speech codes instead. These have expanded to prohibit expressions offensive to women, racial and religious minorities, gay men and lesbians, the physically challenged, and other groups.

With respect to this, Alexander Cockburn quoted a University of Maryland official in T.w Ntrtiw as saying: “We have a big population to be sensitive to. The university does not want our public spaces to show p&ple’s opinion.” As Jonathan Yardley observed in the Washington Post: “Universities are scared of lawsuits and demonstrations initiated t7~ minority groups.” Thus presidents and deans can offer nothing more than increased bureaucratic power to control ovtsrt political movements on campus.

Such a restricted climate is inimical to nt>n-mainstream positions, And this is cbxactly what the anti-PC crusade is pushing for too. ThcGr tactic invdves two stages:

First, having conjured up a c:ah&ve undemocratic “mcwrmrnt” and labelled it with a cliche, they seize upon the evils of speech and behavior codes, “declining Standards”, and “reverse discrimination”and parhay these changes as the result of the pcs singlemindedly pushing through their p&t-ical agenda.

scandalous. The attack on “political correctness” and university speech codes are of a feather. Both pursue intellectual closure on campus and the squashing of radical student politics. The difference is that speech codes are far more inelegant and inefficient. For the clever myths about thePC bogey, the “victim’s revolution,” and the new “fascism of the left” serve to attract unlikely supporters to what was untii just recently the exclusive domain of rightwing ideologues like Bennett and Bloom. To be sure, D’Souta’s brand of inverted hyperbole is nbthing new. But only in certain social conditions can it catch on and achieve some critical measure of pla’usibility. Thus it was that the anti-PC bandwagon really began rolling during the build-up to the Gulf War, and why presidential endorsement came so quickly on the heels of victory. The most striking theme of the anti-PC diatribes of D’Souza et al. is a desperate attempt to strip student activism of all its achievements and to paint it in ne’er-do-well colours. Thus, when faced with a growing anti-war movement which cwstalized political differences on campuses, the right wing went on the offensive not only to discredit those protesting the war, but also to reassert their exclusive right to determine curricula, to racially and sexuallv ‘harass students, and to hire whichever “old boy” they want without the bother of a political challenge from their students. Similar events have occurred in Canada. Mcrr~lo~rn~:Vran its cover stop three weeks after Bush’s Ann Arbor speech. While there are many important differences in Canada, the goals of the anti-PC crusade remain the same: to close debate once and for all on the concerns of women, Blacks, Aisans, Aboriginals, lesbians and gay men, workers, and other groups. They are not without success, Few people protest L’wO’s heavv-handed persecution of those protesting Phiiippe Rushton. Consider the editorial in Imprint (May 3, 1991), and witness the classic anti-PC mix-up: On the one hand, “there is a large audience for what Rushton has to sav”; thev art‘ “dangerous,” as thev &dd infiuence “immigration, wage equit-v and education.” On the other hand, the& is “the group of ‘politically correct’ protesters”; they too are “dangerous,” as thtv “stand outside Rushton’s classroom, being noisy and ydling angry slogans.” Somehow the plain facts get ignoied and these two factions are considered “as dangerous as each other,” except that the latter is “perhaps even more Liangerous”!

WI-rat if young men were to again mock date-rape campaigns here? In a recent issue of Sor~~~~, Ellen Frankel Paul exhibits the antiPC attitude that is quickly gaining currency. On sexual harassment, she argues that “women need to develop a thick skin in order to survive and prosper in the workforce.” The same logic applies to other groups. The anti-PC message to the oppressed is: Don’t speak out - just put up with it! Don’t work toward an environment in which everyone feeis welcome together - grow thick skin! Silence . . . or else!! Thobe who have been fighting for the rights of womeI;b,qgapIe of coiour, gays and %sA> bins, and’natives should see through this

nonsense.

But as argued above, those who are about free expression should also oppose this right-wing backIash. This means challenging anti-PC spokespeople and exposing their ideas as justifications for sexism, racism, and elitism. It means tolerating no intolerance. And it means actively building a moi’ement to sustain a climate inhospitable to reactiona? “grievance factories,” one that i+.ill drive the PC-bashers back to the caves t\rhere they concerned

The Guelph-UW link: how it works from UW News

Bureau

It’s just like being there. The Electrohome Classroom/GuelphWaterloo Education Link - North America’s first long-distance interactive classroom project that joins the University of Waterloo and of Guelph promotes University unprecedented communication and interaction between the two campuses. And, at the same time, the system eliminates the two biggest complaints about previous long-distance systems: the image of the “talking head” and the distraction of nonreal time image transmission. “Other video systems usually offer only television transmission of a professor lecturing to an unseen class, ” says Guelph physicist Jim Hunt, project manager, “That’s dull and does not allow students to communicate effectively with their professor. This new system is totally different.” The Guelph-Waterloo link is a two-way audio, video and data link between identical classrooms un both campuses. Students can both see and hear their cross-campus counterparts and the PI ‘essor, and conve!se back, Mic waves instanta&3usl) and forth. transmit informatic I from one class to t&b other, very much 1iKe a satellite. Each campus has mirror-image classrooms that can serve as either the source of live inforsuch as a lecture or presentation mation or as the remote room, receiving the transmission. The layout of the classrooms is crucial to the communication process. On a four-tiered floor, desks for 38 students are arranged in pairs, with each desk sharing a 1 Z-inch color video monitor, desk-mounted microphone and video selector panel. On the wall at the front of both classrooms is a pressure-sensitive, four-foot-square “electronic whiteboard” that works with regular dry-erase markers. Lecture notes written on the board appear simultaneously in the remote classroom on all the students’ individual monitors. When the professor erases the board, its contents are stored in immediate memory. At the touch of a button on their desk panels, students can call up the contents of one previous board’s worth of information. The entire lecture and all contents of the whiteboards can be stored in long-term memory as well, so tha: students can return after class to review the lecture. At the front of the classrooms are two 3% square-foot rear-projection screens. In both the live and remote class, one screen is dedicated to graphics. The other screen is the key to classroom integration. In the live class, the extra screen displays the remote class, while in the remote class the extra screen shows the lecturer. For their part, lecturers stand at a hi-tech lectern equipped with a microphone, a touchscreen control panel and monitor that displays the remote class at all times. All control functions are preset; no camera operators or technicians are present or required, “The idea throughout has been to create an electronically transparent wall between two classrooms 26 kilometres apart,” says Hunt. “We think we’ve accomplished that goal.” The classrooms can be set up in three different modes - “discussion, “conference” and “classroom.” In the discussion mode, all microphones are active and students can speak with one another and the professor. The screens project images of the classroom participants and the professor. In the conference mode, all microphones are active and one screen projects only a view of the other class, a set-up that would normally be used for meetings and discussion groups. In the classroom mode, microphones are activated one at a time by the professor’s response to students’ questions and comments. Students must push a button on their console to indicate they wish to speak. The systrm’s computer electronically “stacks” all such requests in the order they are received and the student’s microphone is activated when the professor touches the “next question” block on the transmitter.

Canadian companies are emphasized in the technology, design and equipment integrated into the Electrohome Classroom/ Guelph-Waterloo Education Link System. University of Guelph Prsf. Jim Hunt, project manager, estimates more than 70 per cent of the project involved Canadian firms. “In all cases where there was a choice of foreign or Canadian technology, the Canadian was equal or often better quality and always less expensive,” he says. Central to the project is Kitchener-based Electrohome Ltd, which will be permanent!y inscribed in the link’s name. The international design/marketer of commercial electronic products is a long-time supporter of area universities and an employer of graduate and co-operative education students from the University of Waterioo’s engineering facultv. Electrohome was involved with the project, directly and indirectly, from the beginning. Its large-screen projection systems are state-ofthe-art and its monitors broadcast compatible; and as a community member it has made financial commitments.-

Another familiar resource for summer job searches is the classifieds of newspapers and magazines. However, keep in mind that 80 per cent of positions are never advertised. Keep your eye on the want ads, but spend more of your time searching for jobs in creative ways such as reading articles, networking and personal appointments with prospective

employers.

Newspaper and magazine articles are often neglected in the job search but by scanning articles for news of new openings, retiring personnel, company expansions and mergers, government funding and grants, you may discover a possible opening. Networking is another area often neglected by students. Tell your friends acquaintances and relatives thatyou are looking for a summer job. You may be surprised who that person knows! Also consider informational interviewing. The person you interview may be able to provide you with some valuable information. Once you have located a potential job, take a look at your resume; it is another “marketing tooi” which you must spend time developing. Gear your resume to the job; research the company then show the employer what you can do for them! Make it neat, easy to read and professional. Remember - the average reader will scan your resume for only 30 seconds. When sending your resumes by mail, find out the exact name of the person you are sending it to if possible. If you know an employer you would like to work for, apply in person. The telephone is the “easy way out” but it is inefficient and very impersonal. Try to set up an appointment. If you can’t, hand your resume to the appropriate person. Don’t be content with giving it to the secretary. Follow up with a letter, a telephone call or in person. Lastly, Canada Employm’ent Centres can be a valuable resource and personnel agencies can also find you a job, but remember that agencies usually take a percentage of your wage or require the employer to pay a “finding fee”. All students looking fur summer jobs should consider participating in Career Services free workshops. Don’t miss the workshops on Summer Jobs, Tuesday, January 28, IL30 am to 12:30 pm in NH1020 and Wednesday, March 4, 3:30-4:30 pm in NH1020. Resume Writing. Resume Critiquing, Letter Writing Interview Skills (I,11 and III), Informational Interviewing and Asserting Yourself in the Job Interview are also scheduled for the winter term. Also, Career Services has just completed a ‘now-to” guide for the summer job search entitled “Summer Jobs . * . Getting Started” (both the guide and workshop schedules are available in NH1001 and NH1115) and the Career Resource Centre has books, videos and literature on resume writing, cover letters, the job search, interviewing skills and starting your own business. Of particular interest to students is the “Placement ManuaI” on reserve in the Career Resource Centre, which explores job search techniques in further detail. Above all, remember that the success or failure of your job search depends on your attitude. ‘Be enthusiastic, confident and assertive! Think in terms of selling yourself and search develop effective job strategies. Don’t do a half-hearted job - it will show! Any job search is intimidating and you may wish to put it off. But if you develop t#ective strategies and start your search early, you may lx surprised what job you may find yourself cloing this summer.

Athenas Athena VolleyU.

Athenas shutout Western by Frank

Imprint

Seglenieks sports

The news from the volieyball court the week can be summarized as the good, the bad, and the ugly. The good was the strong defence shown in the Athenas’ three-game sweep of Western last Friday, the bad was the threegame sweep McMaster administered to us this Wednesday, and there is no ugly - it just sounded like a good opening sentence. In the match last Friday against Western in our very own PAC, the play was highlighted by long rallies and fine defence shown by both teams. However, in the end, the stronger Water100 side took the match E-10, 15-8, and 15-10. The first game was started out close with both teams using the first-serve rotation to get into the game. After the game had become 10-9 for Waterloo, our side decided that enough was enough and finished off the Mustangs 15-10, with the final point coming on a great serve by Sue Bylsma. The second game was all Waterloo (boy Ill never get tired of using that phrase) taking a hard fought 8-2 lead in the first part of the game, two notable plays during this part were a cross court kill by Bylsma and a smash up between two Western players prompting the cheer from the audience ‘Western has fallen and they can’t get up.” This was true of the Lady ‘Stangs until Waterloo got up 13-4 and the ‘Stangs came back with four points of

their own. After a time out called by coach Dena Deglau and a quick set to Michelle VanVIiet, the Athenas got the points they needed to take the game 15-8. This game had the longest rally of the night, during which 1 believe every player on both teams touched the ball. The last game of the match found WaterIoo in an unaccustomed position, down by four points and being outblocked. A time-out was all that was needed though, as quicWy afterward the game was tied at seven. Western then rallied to jump out in front by successive scores of 7-9 and 8-10, but those were ail the points which the Mustangs would get this night as the block came back for Waterloo and they won the game 1510. It was quite an even game in the kills department with Sue Bylsma and Carren Hall leading the way with 12, Nicky Campbell close behind with 11 and both Christine Harrison and Michelle VanVliet coming it at seven. Bylsma also lead the team with 18 made serves on the night. ”

After the game, DegIau said that this was the “best the team has played so far” and that “they won with defence.” It was a different story this Wednesday, however, as the Athenas went down in defeat to the best team they have seen so far in the McMaster Marauders, by scores of lo-15,10-15, and 8-15.

Both teams came out of the locker rooms strong putting on a great show of defence and hits. With the score tied at five, the Athenas allowed Mac to steal the momentum and take at 10-5 lead. In one of the bright spots for the Athenas, they came back to tie

the game at 10 in an offensive spurt highlighted by at quick reverse set by Katrina EngIebrecht to Sue Bylsma. Unfortunately, Waterloo could not keep up the intensity needed to stand up to the powerful McMaster team

and they ended up losing 10-15. The second game again found the Athenas behind early as a combination of unforced errors allowed the Marauders to take a 8-2 lead. Again Waterloo had to dig deep to come back, and this is just what they did, closing the score at 10-9 McMaster. Then came the TSN turning point when a long rally featuring some fine defence by both sides went Mac’s Waterloo to lose way causing momentum and eventually the game by a score of 1 O-l 5. Waterloo came to play in the third game, as this time they came out strong matching the Marauders point for point until the score was tied at seven. But McMaster was the stronger team this night as they took control of the game and won it 15-8. It seemed that at times the Athenas could match up with McMaster, but that we could not keep up that level of play for extended periods. Deglau cited the 21 unforced errors as the cause of Waterloo’s defeat this night, which caused Waterloo’s record to fall to 3-2. Now, it should be remembered that McMaster was the pre-season favourite to be first in the division and thus a strong show against them is to be commended, but the Athenas will have to find a way to put together a strong effort for entire match if they hope to be one of the contenders in OWIAA. Next Wednesday, Waterloo will play at Guetph for their last game of 1991, after which they have the Christmas holidays to prepare for rest of the season.

Warrior Hockey

Warriors take Ryerson March east to conquer Queens University by CD Co&s Imprint Sports The Warriors continued their rise to the top of the CIAU hockey rankings last weekend by beating up on a team that has come to personify the term crappy. The Ryerson Rams felr victim to our invading Warriors by losing 10-d at Ryerson. The win for the Warriors improved their season record to 6-2-0, placing them in a tie, poin& wise, with Latier (although Laurier has a game in hand). Waterloo’s national ranking rose from eighth to fifth, while Laurier appeared on the top-ten at eighth. At the other end of the table, Ryerson’s record fell to an abysmal O9. This contest marked the second time these two teams clashed. The first was an exhibition game in Waterloo, where the Warriors toppled the Rams by a score of 13-4. The Warriors man-handled the Rams from the beginning in the last encounter, and the Warriors went into their freezer with hopes of continuing the domination. However, the home-town Rams actually played well in the first few minutes of the game, and drew first blood with a power-play goal six minutes into the contest before Jamie Hartnett got the Warriors on the scoreboard a minute later. Chris VanChef added another one to the Warrior total before the end of the

first period* Ryerson managed another powerplay goal early in the second period, but the Warriors broke this pattern by scoring six goals of their own, incIuding a short-handed goal by John Wiiiams, interrupted only by one Ram tally. Adding to their goal scoring totals were: Tyler Ertel, Mike Orzel, Darren Snyder, and William, with his second of the game. The momentum carried right into the third period, when the Warriors finished off their scoring with Snyder’s second goal, and game MVP Troy Stephens also getting his second. Ryerson managed another goal of their own to fmish the scoring for both teams. The Warriors’ win against Ryerson however, won’t be going to the players heads, considering that Ryerson has been getting the snot kicked out of them by even the mediocre teams in the league. No, it is the four goals against that wil1 stand out after the post-game reflections. Before this game, Ryerson had managed a mere 17 goals in eight games for an average of only 2.13 goals a game, which incidentally, is close to the magic goals against average of 2.00 that head coach Don McKee has been trying to get his team to produce. So, when the Warriors gave up about double the goals that Ryerson has been getting, it is plain to

see that the defense can still be improved. One aspect of the Warriors play that did match, or better, Ryerson’s average, was the offens& The Rams went into the game, giving up an average of nine goals against in their first eight games. Waterloo bettered that average by getting 10.

The Warrictrs will once again be ptaying a winless team the foIlowing week, as they head off to Brock University, to take on the O-4-1 Badgers. These three weeks of playing bad teams, can only help the Warrior’s coaching staff get the

players pIay sharpened before they take on the biggy’s in the OUAA West: Western, Guelph, Windsor, and Laurier. The Warriors first big test after playing in the league cellar will be when the Mustangs trot into town on Sun., Dec. 2. for the first meeting with us. The game starts at 2 pm, so make plans now to come out and watch the Warriors make glue out of the Mustangs.

1,000 fans. the Mustangs that played extremely well beyond their normal output. It was the Warriors that came out onto the court flat and just fell asleep. It was the match that every player has nightmares b volleyball about. There was absolutely no aggressiveness, and plenty of unforced errors by the Waterloo side. As a result, Western cruised to an uneventful 3-O sweep by game scores of 15”3,15-12, and 15-3 in just under an hour. (Just to show you how often the volleyball Warriors have a bad game, the last time Waterloo was swept on their home court was over 12 years ago.) The only signs of life evident of UW in the match came midway through game two. Waterloo’s main attacking threat, offside hitter Jon Tenthorey, delivered two authoritative smashes for sideout at 4-7. This sparked his side to claw back to a 7-7 tie and forced UWU to call a timeout. Western gathered momentum again and managed to keep ahead of The Plague to win game two 15-12. Western power hitter and OUAA all-star Brian Kussner led all scorers with 15 points, including 13 MIS. middle player Ian Fourth-year Heynen topped the score sheet for It wasn’t

The Black Plague Waterloo volleyball Warriors have discovered something that they have never seen before: some competition in the OUAA West division. To start their home schedule, the Warriors faced two possible CIAU contenders, the 1990-9 1 division semi-finalist Western Ontario Mustangs on Friday night, and the McMaster nation’s third-ranked Marauders this past Wednesday. This was the toughest start to The Plague’s home schedule in years, and unfortunately they came out with identical 3-O losses. This puts Waterloo’s season record at an even 2-2, good enough for a tie for third place in the West with Guelph. To make matters worse, the Warriors learned before those two contests that they would be without the services of starting power hitter Mike Fullerton. He is out with a broken wrist and won’t be expected back for at least six weeks. There’s always at least one game a season when a team just has a bad day. For the volleyball Warriors, that day came unexpectedly in Friday night’s home opener against Western

the Warriors with nine points on six kills and three stuff blocks. Improved efforts were definitely shown in the match against McMaster. Waterloo took the Marauders to the limit in games one and two, losing only 15-11 and 15-12. Each game took 25 minutes to play and were just filled with sideouts. Drained of energy, the home side was outgunned in game three by a score of 15-3.

After spending Homecoming weekend in the friendly confines of the PAC, the Warrior basketball team hit the road for a pair of games last weekend. On Friday night, ‘they ventured into the wilds of North York for a tussle with the Yeomen. Saturday, they did a little cross-border stopping and popping, travelling south to play the Lakers - no, no, no. Not those Lakers, the Mercyhurst College Lakers, in Erie Pennsylvania. The Warriors had already disposed of the Yeomen, beating them 104-40 in their first exhibition game of the season. Thus, the Warriors had a fair idea of how to deal with the Yeomen: I control Clive Andevon and Mark Bellai, their only genuine scoring threats, and the game is half won. When the dust had settled, the Warriors had built upon a narrow one-point ha&time lead to beat York by eight, 87-79. The Warriors got a sterling performance from Bruise Duart< kho poured in 29 points and grabbed seven rebounds in only 28 minutes. The only flaw in his peAormance were the eight turnovers he

What lifted them was hot team shooting as they shot 56 per cent (loof-18) from three-point land, and 52 per cent (25-49) from inside the stripe. What has emerged as a chronic weak point for the Warriors flared up again, as they were a paltry 50 per cent from the free throw stripe (7-of14). Besides Duarte’s bundle, three other Warriors hit double figures in scoring, Sean VanKoughnett hit for 15, Pat Telford had a solid game with 12 points and eight boards, and Chris Moore chipped in with ten first-half points.

Tenthorey paced Waterloo’s output with 15 points, including 13 kills, while Halt hammered nine kills, two aces, and a stuff for 12 points. Secondyear setter Shawn Smith put together a strong defensive effort, scraping up five digs to go with his seven points.

behind 14-2 in game 2 because of a barage of net errors- However, they dug down deep inside and pulled out a gritty performance to rally back to 14-12. Spearheaded with a huge stuff block built by Heynen, the comeback effort saw three UW service aces, two by second-year relief man Jeff Stover and another by main power hitter Rene ‘Halt. Veteran middle player smashed one kill down the seam to spark the Waterloo crowd of 800 plus.

losing cause, Clive Anderson hit for 21, while Bellai put in 23. The Warriors put some miles onto the odometer with a trip down to Erie, Pennsylvania to duel with the Mercyhurst College Lakers. The Warriors played some of their best ball of thf exhibition season so far - unfortunately they only played about 3C minutes of it, and Mercyhurst played ‘40 solid minutes. After Mercyhurst burst on top 10-Z three minutes in, Waterloo fough back over the next ten minutes or SC to take the lead at 27-25. The mar+ held solid at two to four points for tht remainder of the half, with tht Warriors taking a four-point margir into the dressing room, 38-34. The game remained nip-and-tuck for the first ten minutes of the seconr half, as the teams traded baskets ant the lead was never more than a hand ful of points either way. With 14:30 t( go/ Mercyhurst led 47-46; with 9:55 their margin was 57-53. That’s whel the lights went out for the Warrior: though, as the Warriors were poun ded 30-13 the fast ten minutes.

Both teams shot the trey we! hitting matching marks of 50 per ten Unfortunately, Mercyhurst’s 50 pt cent came on 20 attempts, as oppose to Waterloo’s ten.

Vanier Cup 27

Battle of the Underdogs matched teams, so this could be the closest Vanier Cup game in five years.

by Rich Nichol Imprint sports This is what Canadian university football is all about. This is what every practice amounts to. This is the fire in the eyes of all players sweating it Out every night On the field and in the weight room from September to November each year.

Here are the scouting each team: LAURIER

GOLDEN

This Vanier Cup could most Iikely be pegged as the battle of the underdogs. Last weekend, Mount Allison knocked off the defending champion Saskatchewan Huskies 31-14 in the Atlantic Bowl, while Wilfrid Laurier rallied to conquer the heavily favored Queen’s Golden Gaels 42-22 in the Churchill Bowl. Both teams have been popping in and out of the bottom half of the CIAU top-ten rankings all season long. They are two fairly evenly

Vanier Cup appearances: VANIER 1966 -

Twenty-three teams have fought a grueling battle and now it is down to two survivors: the Mount Allison Mounties and the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks. The ClAU football championship, Vanier Cup 27, will be played at SkyDome on Saturday, November 30 at 2 pm.

Back when the school was called Waterloo Lutheran University, the Golden Hawks lost in all three of their Cup appearances. The closest they have gotten to the big show since then were two Churchill Bowl losses to the British Columbia Thunderbirds, 25-16 in 1978 and 33-31 in 1987. The 1991 Hawks have one of the most potent offences in the country. With 1990 CIAU rookie of the year Bill Kubas at quarterback, Laurier’s air ‘attack is a constant threat. His main targets slotback Ralph Spoltore and wideouts Andrew Scharschmidt and Pat O’Leary are alI having banner years. Anchoring the running game is fifth-year tailback Andy Cecchini the OUAA conference all-time leading rusher along with fullback I? J. Martin, Kubas can also run the ball well when given a hole.

Defence

is a concern

with the loss

of five OUAA all-stars from the previous year. The line features veteran ends Hugh Lawson and Retiardt Keller backed up by senior linebackers Fred Grossman and Jim Burl&t. Tim Bisci and tinny Taylor, the two cornerbacks, have had big games this season for the secondary unit and look to upset at the Vanier. Rich Newbrough, in his eighth season as head coach, would love to win it all, after spectacular upsets of Western and Queen’s.

Well then, your diagnosis is a less than adequate standard of physical fitness. Physical fitness means that you are fit physically, mentally, emotionally, socially, and intellectually. Some moral and experts also include spiritual fitness as well. If you’re slacking, just look at some of the benefits you’re missing out on. High level and prolonged fitness: 1. Promotes, maintains, and conserves your health. 2. Redistributes blood and reactivates all body systems and organs...a greater blood supply to your brain makes you more mentally alert. 3. Ensures stamina for everyday activities and emergencies. 4. Elicits a feeling of well being and alertness. 5. Prevents and delays chronic and acute illness and diseases. 6. Enables you to do a job more efficiently. 7. Relieves tension and allows emotional release. 8. Improves body efficiency: stroke volume of heart and vital &pa&y of lungs. 4. Helps establish and maintain sound muscle tone throughout you body. 10. Enhances ability to sleep. The secret of doing well on your exams? Make time in your busy schedule for a little physical fitness. Only an hour of squash or 20 minutes of swimming can do wonders for the mind and body. And, who knows.. . you might get that A!

Romeo’s not a wimp anvrnore

Crash Burn!

Romeo and Juliet

U W Drama, Theurrv UJ he Arts November

ZO-23,1991

by Tamara Knezic special to Imprint Romeo and Juliet has never been one of my favourite Shakespearean plays. I hate the usual interpretation of Romeo as a wimpy, love-sick, whiny brat. Because I could never sympathize with him, I was never moved to any emotion other than relief at his death. But Darlene Spencer, director of the UW’s production of Romeo and Juid creates a funny, provocative and moving version of the play from William Chadwick’s adaptation. The action takes place in modern-day S&y (to establish the setting the house music is appropriately Italian in flavour). It’s a world full of danger and corruption btit not entirely degenerate - a world that we should all recognize instantly. In last winter’s production of Tartuffe, Spencer proved herself more than capable of directing a seemingly out-of-date play and making it relevant to contemporary audien-

but at no time story. This production does not merely present a tragic look at modern society. On the contrary it is often upbeat and comical. Among the comic characters are Roger Sumner’s Mercutio with his vulgar mind and obscene gestures, Lady Capulet with her nasty disposition, and Romeo with his awkward, love-stricken actions. The Nurse played by Jennifer Clark hilariously tortures Juliet by teasingly withholding information about Romeo and their up-and-coming marriage. The comic moments of the play heighten the emotional impact of its tragic ending. The light-hearted interaction of the Montegues before crashing Capulet’s party, the Queen Mab speech, and the balcony scene where Romeo and Juliet express their love for one another are just some instances where comedy increases empathy towards the young couple and their friends. So that in the final scene the self-destruction of these believable and likeable lovers is clearly dramatic. Romeo and Juliet’s relationship is special in that both characters retain their individuality even after falling for each other. Joel Harris’ Romeo may be in love but he is neither wimpy or whiny. He is especially not wimpy - let me emphasis that again due to its great wimpy. importance not Michelle D’Alessandro does a convincing job portray-

independence and freedom from the confines of her brutal family. The cast’s acting is admirable. Some of the characters that stand out in my mind are Benv&o, Friar Lawrence, Tybalt, and Lady Capulet.

Crash Vegas Bumbshel~t?r November 16,199l by Pauline Olthof and Fiona van der Lug-t Imprint staff

Crash Vegas at the Bombshelter? Unless you live at Fed or the ‘Shelter, it isn’t likely that you would have noticed the little advertisement that there was about this spectacular event. Crash Vegas played at the ‘Shelter on November 16 as a part of “Not Another ‘Green’ Week. Crash Vegas are not strangers to the Bombshelter, last time they played here was in February of 1990. Since that gig they have greatly improved, developing a harder edge. The goup has incorporated more guitar into their songs, and lead singer Michelle McAdorey has developed a smoother and more control1ed voice. Whether by live performance or practice, Michelle has learned to channel her voice to new levels. Those who weren’t fans before the performance became h-IS.

The audience responded well to their new sound. There was excitement in the air as beer flowed from the pitchers and “Red Earth” flowed from the band. Although all the songs were greeted with applause from the audience, this song generated the greatest response. This song captures the lyrical essence of the band appealing to both the heart and the feet of the audience. The minute the fans identified song they jumped from their tables and danced. This set the tone the rest of the evening. The audience became guinea pigs as the band introduced never-heard-before songs, which were received well by the audience. Another new addition to the band was the anonymous bass player replacing Joseiine Lanais. Other band members include Colin Cripps on guitar and vocais and Ambrose Pottie who also plays with the PoIkadogs, on

Craig Mason commands the stage with refreshing confidence in his role as the wellmeaning but not entirely virtuous Friar Lawrence and the slimy, arrogant, despicable, contemptuous, Tybalt is played to perfection by Tim Rogers. The insincere attitudes of the adult characters are epitomized in the role of Lady Capulet, played wonderfully by Nancy Forde* Lady Capulet’s grand entrance illustrates her shallowness nicely as she tears accessory after accessory from her body only to have the Nurse pick up after her. Romeo and Juliet opened this week and is playing tonight and Saturday night at the Theat-re of the Arts, 8 pm both nights. It is 90 minutes long with no intermission. Go see it, it’s well worth the money and the time.

This past week’s FishbonePrimus show at the sauna known as the Concert Hall was one of the more promising double-bills in recent memory. Since either band might well have been able to fill the hall to near capacity without the support of the other, expectations may have been unreasonably high. The jury is still out on Prirnus. They have achieved somewhat of an elite status amongst the underground and, ahem, serious musicians. Having cited both Rush and King Crimson as inspirations, a cautionary reminder of the halcyon days of ELP should be in hasty order to thwart any further non-

sense. It appears more credible to make mention of the undeniable Stanley Clarke / Bootsy Collins / Flea bass-slapping sound which prevails, a sound that may well be their

Photo by Dave fisher strength and, unless they reveal something more melodic, could well seal their fate. For despite their characteristic quirkiness, Primus play funk that bashes with no apparent soul. As a ritual of affection, the Primus fans greet their heroes with a chant of “Primus Sucks!” It’s an inside joke, and not a very humourous one. All endearing sarcastic reverence aside, some wouldn’t be too hard pressed to chant right along with the fans but with substantially less enthusiasm.

It isn’t until about six songs into their set that Primus really begin to get interesting. Unfortunately, in a ten-song concert - including encore such a sudden development leaves a gaping hole as to the band’s creative capabilities and potential. Even more disappointing is the illusion from their sound of visual excitement; on the contrary, supposedly live, Primus are completely static. Fishbone, on the other hand, are anything but motionless. The seven members pounce and_ dart irrepressibly across and above the stage, playing an inspired blend of punk-

runs the gamut from to Bad Brains. Quite often directions that Fishbone the same song conspire to desired focus. Neverthecan be no denying their inventiveness and enthusiasm. Some of that enthusiasm almost got away from them; although the show was generally spared the violent lunacy which sabotaged the recent Chili Peppers show, it certainly wasn’t for lack of trying. Fishbone castigated the stage-front security for supposed abuses whilst a pitched battle ensued, subsequently inspiring the unsavouries to even greater depths of depravity. Fishbone’s opportunistic rant about Rodney King and victims of power was, under the circumstances, clearly uncalled for. Needless to say, Fishbone fancy themselves a political force to be reckoned with. However, unlike many condescending paragons who manipulate music for their own prosaic banality, (if only we had a rocket launcher), Fishbone combine their social conscience with abrasive power and unbridled fun. Their style of funk is more adventuresome and harder than that of Primus, and certainly more tuneful. All in all the evening was a mixed bag, suffering more from false hope and overbearing temperatures than was either bands’ liability.

Stanard Ridgway is likely to be one of the most charismatic and egnimatic

den aspects of almost anything. As a songwriter, he takes these skewed views and serves up a humorous, sometimes spooky, but always entertaining piece of listening. With vocals that seem to emerge through the side of his mouth, Stan Ridgway has a distinctive voice that’s one of kind. In the past, his offbeat wit and cinematic storytelling has been compared to Tom Waits. It’s this style that developed from the music of Stan’s first popular band, Wall of Voodoo.

WATERLOO TaA*Xd

s

The lyrics were odd and they related stories of living working, and finding pleasure in the wild west of the modem day. The music was sometimes odder still with guitar that sounded like Johnny Cash plqying variations of the James Bond theme. Added to this were some synthesizers and an underlying equivalent of an industrial beat (largely due to the use of a modified cocktail lounge rhythm machine). This led to two albums, an EP and the hit single “Mexican Radio” that no doubt everyone has once heard. Well now, Stan Ridgway has come up with his third solo release which continues a line of unique, solid albums. Some of the traditions from Wall of Voodoo have found their way onto his previous albums, the Big Heatand Mosguitoes, but he has tempered the sometimes raw edge with a smoother sound that may contain horns or strains of blues and country music. I’m personally not a country music buff, but it’s in there, ye ferent environment t&t: 6 music is not played. .,i!

Dee-Lite’s “Groove is in the Heart.” I can’t believe I could make such a connection. However, moving on, the next track is “I Wanna be a Boss” which tells a first person story of a man fed up with his small time job. It contains classic lines like “I wanna take a twoweek vacation, 26 times a year (add ‘em up),” but then goes way over the top with his thoughts of a millionaire amusement park on Mars. The song, for the first time in Stan’s career; uses an upfront female vocal on the chorus to which you may find yourself singing along to. So far, the songs are sounding good and thev continue to do so with he next g&&-slappin’, toe-tappin’ track “Roadblock.” It’s the story of a

up a behavioral front before other people. A nice song. However, it’s the tracks “Overlords” and “Beyond Tomorrow” which build on a looming cosmic theme. This is aided by the liner no&s which contain pictures of symbols of the unknown like a ancient cities and manatee, sculpture. The track”Overlords” has a juggernaut pace creating the atmosphere of something immense. It describes the plan of a worker (Stan in first person) to escape from the harsh conditions of a-mining operation on Mars which is controlled by a dictator-lie entity. Another first for Stan. In the process, it coniures up images of the ruddy scene; of Martian ierrain shown ih “Total Recall.”

I don’t know if this Husker Du story is true or not, but it goes like this There were these two American prisoners who were. kidnapped by the PLO or some foreign nation and their captors “tortured” them by play-, ing Husker Du’s first album over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. That story is apt because Husker Du are thanked alongside DRI, Napalm Death, and a couple of other bands on the album sleeve. Also, this album could have been used for this same purpose.

I’ve heard of Zom before, and his last album with Naked City didn’t wear out its welcome quite as quickly as this piece of shit. Designed to appeal to the “aIternative” crowd, you may run into people who say they like this. I’m here to tell you that they are lying through their teeth. Besides that, I can’t think of much else to say about this album. It’s sort of

Metallica meets Miles Davis. 01 maybe Judas Priest and Charlie Parker. Well to be completely accurate, it’s John Zom, New York jazz guy meets Napalm Death, New York death metal guys. Although I don’t think Napalm Death are actually on this album, Zom has worked with them before and likes them quite a lot. The album is interesting for about five minutes. Each track is about a minute - 20 tracks which consist of really loud thrash guitars, fast alto sax (courtesy of Zom), some keyboards, drums, and the incessant screaming of some Japanese guy. The liner has some really disgusting sado-masochistic Japanese paintings which are available on limited

The show was one of the best l’ve seen as the band played with energy and were very warm to the crowd. Earlier classics like “I Say Nothing”“I Walk the Earth,” and a whole slew of others off the first album were well received by the crowd. They also did a cool version of James’ “Sit Down-” Only a few songs off the new album H~~rl~~ Lirqyn were done since as of the concert date, it had not been released in Canada yet. The vocalists Tracey and Melissa had on goofy ’60s and ’70s apparel which they seem to own a lot of. The sound was good except for a few power problems. This pop band from England certainly delivers live and considering they packed the house on a night which had Metallica playing Maple Leaf Gardens and Fishbone playing at the Concert Hall, that’s pretty good.

ked by the sadistic parents. What bastards. . The film is plagued by poor casting and writing. The actors cannot repreduce the ghetto cok>quialisms that comprise most of their dialogue and the result feels unnatural and awkward. There are too many leaps of logic and unreal situations, even for a movie that requires you suspend all preconceptions of reality. For example, the children held captive in the cellar cannot break the thin, hastily conshucted wooden cage tnat confines them but when the time is right they come smashing through the stairs in the house’s foyer. The real horror is missed while you laugh at the film’s implausibilities. From early on it is apparent that the film’s intentions are too good - its purpose contradicts its vision. At its roots it is about the poor rebelling against the rich (sounds Marxist . . .), saving mom, and stopping child abuse. Most horror film auditlnces are more cynical than this: they cheer for the anti-hero. That’s why Craven’s other creation, ‘4 Ni~lrtrzw-t) 01 Elm L.trr~~t, lasted six installments. The film must be given credit for administering a few cheap laughs and a few cheap thrills (the somethingfrom-off-camera-jumps-on-camera kind). Essentially, it’s better than anything starring Hulk Hogan. I wasn’t smelling my hand to stay awake.

One singular sensation MetalLica

Muple L.cqfGardem November

15

by Dave Fisher Imprint staff Sink or swim With the staggering amount of critical attention recently heaped upon their self-titled and fifth major release, Metallica’s profile has never been greater. Like their ubiquitous and unavoidable T-shirt assault, they are a cultural phenomenon that refuses to be ignored; none of this has been lost on Spin, Rolling Sfme, &em, Guitar Player, and a vast display of other mainstream publications who have all prominently featured Metallica as their cover story within the past month. One might be inclined to simply slag all of this off as concerted hype. Rather, Metallica’s success has come on their own terms, been anything but sudden, and mostly in the face of all the conventional wisdom of the business. In some circles, they have been misrepresented as a crossover band, but the greater reality is that the mainstream has been compelled to finally catch up with Metallica or lose touch with contemporary youth and music.

On the strength of such concentrated focus, Metallica rolled through Toronto this past week for a twonighter at Maple Leaf Gardens to harvest it’s devoted, perhaps sell a few million more T-shirts, and make believers of the curious. Their performance was an ambitious and solid three hours covering some of the most significant metal of the past decade. Permitting discretion for the lousy venue (where else, short of the EnormoDome, could they realistically play?), the stage and sound was the most forgiving of an arena witnessed yet. Their exceptional homeplateshaped stage was layed out rather centrally and, appropriately, with multiple stage fronts. With speakers and video screens suspended above the stage and monitors submerged below it, there remained minimal clutter to ensure valuable sightlines from everywhere. The entire surface was used judiciously and allowed a natural choreography between the band as they effortlessly slipped from one stagefront to the other. In a genre - heavy metal - with an innate proclivity for excess, Metallica’s grasp of restraint is all the more remarkable. Naturally, they possess all the requisite state-of-theart bells and whistles but never

employ them gratuitously nor pointlessly; the effects are there to punctuate and not overwhelm. Like the solid black the band favour themthe performance is selves in, workmanlike and the delivery a model of simplicity.

after all. It’s my perception that the music often overpowered and stunned the kids and, moreover, Metallica possesses an inordinately qeater sense of rhythm than its fans ;eem to fully appreciate. Neverihe-

for whom the bellsand whistlestoll Surprisingly, the volume level was comfortable and impeccably sharp. More confounding, perhaps, was the relative lack, or reluctance, of thoroughly committed headbanging on behalf of the leathered-up crowd. To be sure, the show was lengthy-and security tight, but this was, MetalIica,

IeSS, Metallica’s influences Motorhead, Sabbath, Priest, Maiden, and Diamond Head - are readily obvious, although never imitative. lndeed, their sound doesn’t merely crunch but rolls, thrashes, and careens with melody and purpose. Witness songs such as “Master of

Puppets,” “For Whom the Bells Toll,” and “One” which move through Wagnerian opus to sonic walls of militaristic fury and bombast. If there’s any singular triviality that endears one to Metallica, it’s got to be the presence of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist James Hetfield. He’s the brains and soul of the band, and physically towers over his fellow bandmates. Since the microphones are shared by everyone, their uniform height (to accommodate the shorter Newsted and Hammett) presents itself as a bit of a problem wherein Hetfield must exaggeratingly stoop down to sing, Whether the resulting posture is intentional or not, (and I’m inclined to doubt it), he’s every bit as natural and cool and graceful and transcendent as either Lemmy or Joey Ramone. No minor feat, he and Metallica have more than arrived.

The oldest profession that so many screen hookers wind up finding their knight-in-shiningarmour and breaking free. (Their colleagues are still walking the streets, but the ones who get out are special, purer than the rest; they don’t really belong with the other trash.) It’s definitely a ball of confusion for Hollywood, trying to tap into the collective unconsciousness. Only very rarely, in films like Morza Lisa and Lizzie Borden’s low-budget intellectual wonder, Working Girls, is it expressed that prostitution is a nasty business. Like Working Girls. Russell’s film investigates the politics of the issue. Theresa Russell, as the lead, is onscreen almost all the time. She addresses the camera at length (giving the film a documentary flavor) and it is her eloquence and insight that informs the picture. She calls herself “a hostage.” She asks us, “Hell couldn’t be worse than this, now could it?” Although she has a slew of horror stories about her clientele and admits that she keeps her eyes shut so as not to see “the hate in their faces,” she also speculates “Something mu&e happened to make ‘em like that.” Everyone in is in the throes of quiet deperation: Rasta, a Rastafarian vagrant, is willing to walk on broken glass for a dollar; erotic dancers grind away mechanically; johns demand the illusion they’re turning their date on; and Blake, the pimp, tries to move up the social ladder by faking sophistication. It is a world without humanity. The movie begins the day after Russell’s character has run away from Blake. She is not doing much business, hiding out in a n;ew territory, and she has a lot to say about her job. We watch her turn down several potential customers because she has learned the hard way to set limits. Flashbacks reveal that the heroine’s training took place within the institution of marriage; she subordinated her needs to her abusive, unfaithful husband’s whims. Finding herself a single mother with no education, she gave up waitressing to be a call girl. She believed she could make tons of money very quickIy, and return to the straight life.

whore

Directed by Ken Russel bY J-if= EPPS Imprint staff “I used to love sex;” recalls th&‘protagor@ in whorcl. ‘4 used to love everything about it.” She doesn’t feel that way anymore, after a few years as a hooker. Prostitution, she tells us, “is not even sex , . . It’s not making love. It’s more like hating.” Because tricks “don’t want sex, . . . more like revenge.” whoop t;hows the underside of “the world’s oldest profession” - “It sure makes me feel old,” agrees the main character - but the surprise is that filmmaker Ken Russell does it without being lurid or trashy. The script, adapted from Briton David Hines’ play Bonduge by Russell and Deborah Dalton, doesn’t use shock tactics to convince us that streetwalking leaves something to be desired. We don’t have to see things that make us writhe in our seats, we just have to think about them. And because anybody who has thought about prostitution seriously has already gotten depressed about it, the film isn’t a downer. It’s encouraging; somebody, f-inally&all;v. is saying what needs to be said. Making the notion of prostitution titillating has always been the big cinematic con. This May, Premim analyzed 12 films featuring ladies of the evening - fiIms such as Imla La Deuce, Trading Places, Risky Busims. and he* Wuman - and found that nine of the heroines quit the business and lived happily ever after, usually thanks to the redemptive love of the right man. Movies usually treat hookers as a dirty joke. Turning ticks is supposed to be cute, and it is assumed that this line of work is irresistible to some women. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. As whore’s pimp says, “They can’t help themselves . . . They’re born with a price tag.“ These depictions suggest that the only two drawbacks to being a whore are prudes’ prejudices against promiscuity, and a job with no possibility of advancement. The contradiction is

Blake (Benjamin Mouton) has different ideas, of course. He convinces her she loves him, because pimps’ tactics are to “build you up and then tear you down.” She even gets a tattoo on her breast at his insistence; he pretends it’s a symbol of their love, but when she discovers all his “girls” have them, she realizes she’s “just one of the herd, branded cattle.“K.atie (Elizabeth Moorehead), a barmaid who helps a wounded hooker when no-one else will, provides RusselI with an idyllic respite. The heroine reads her first book, Animal Farm watches ballet on TV, and learns how lo play SU&~L~; but Blake bursts in and steals her back, forbidding her to read or contact Katie again. Bug-eyed, long-limbed R&2 (Antonio Fargas) keeps re-appearing, and he’s frighteningly eccentric, but his radical views on prostitutes and pimps are the first hint of sanity in any male character. The director manages to people the film with a variety of characters while pointing up the main character’s aloneness. There’s plenty of liumour in whore: snappy one-liners in the narration, the limited perspwtives of some characters, the irony of the illusions everyone is trying to preserve. (“Prostitutes like that have no respect for themselves,” Russell criticizes, Meanwhile, Blake cautions her to take better care of herself, to stop smoking and drinking because it’s dangerous to her health.) The title is a brave joke of its own, a refusal to use euphemisms.

Theresa Russell carries the movie adeptly. Her elaborate performance takes a while to get used to, since her throaty voice does unusual things with the narration, and even standing still she is in constant motion. She isn’t fashion-model thin like Julia Roberts or Roberts’body double, and it adds to the realism of the whole piece. Russell shows us a vulnerable individual with powerful yearnings. She bites hgr nails, gazes through department store windows at luxurious bedroom sets, plays with a yoyo, and has a bruise on her arm that she never mentions. Mouton is sinister and a forceful presence, but perhaps his character is ‘unfairly narrowed. Fargas is fascinating. because even after the film is over, we still don’t know how to take him. It’s exciting that three very feminist movies have come out this year: Ridley Scott’s 7helma and Louise, Henry Jaglom’s Earing, and this film. The topics

covered

(rape,

social pre-

ssures on women to monitor their appearance, and sexual slavery) are as important as they come. It is a shame that none of these were directed by women, but it is heartening that male artists are promoting feminist ideas.
