Was $15,000 lost in transit. ? By VERNE McDONALD

Walter Hardwick,, B.C.’s $45,000 a year deputy education minister, has been allocated more than $15.000 in the past two years from UBC despite being on leave from the university.

Hardwick, a professor in the geography department, was allocated $7,300 in last year’s UBC budget and The Ubyssey has learned that a further $7,700 or more has been allocated him for this year.

But Hardwick said Wednesday he has received “nothing, ab- solutelv zero” from the university

sincehis appointment to the deputy minister’s position ,in January,

- 1976. At that time he resigned his post

as headof the centre for continuing education, and took a leave of absence from the geography department. For some time he commuted between the university and Victoria, fulfilling com- mitments he had made and “phasing out” his activities here.

According to .the geography depqrtment, he has not taught classes since a t least last October.

Arts dean Robert Will, when asked Wednesday if Hardwick still

performed any .duties here, said, “he’s on leave of absence, he’s working in Victoria.”

He may be gone, but he’s not ,

forgotten. The UBC financial statement for

the fiscal year 1976-77 lists his salary as a tenured full professor at something over $38,000, notes that he is on leave, and allocates him $7,300.

It is not known how this figure was calculated. But it was ap- parently not enough.

According to information received by The Ubyssey Wedn- nesday, he is allocated more than

$7.700 this year a six per cent in- crease.

According to Hardwick, this is a six per cent increase of nothing.

“I’ve received zed-ee-ar-oh, nothing. I don’t know what this is about,” he said.

He said that although his leave of absence ends this January, it has been agreed he will not return to active teaching until September, 1978 a t the earliest.

“It wouldn’t help anyone for me to come back in the middle of the year,” Hardwick said.

He said that he will probably not

receive any money from the university until that time.

“I am giving some lectures in urban studies 200 this year, I’ve agreed to, but I’m doing them gratis.”

The Ubyssey was unable to learn why the budget allocations are there, or even more important, what happened to the money after it was allocated.

But it has gone somewhere because there is no mention of a $7,300 surplus at the end of the year, which would be the case if it had never actually been paid out.

A planned expansion of the UBC medical school has been postponed until at least 1980, medicine dean William Webber said Wednesday.

Webber said the university has put off plans to double enrolment in the school because the Social Credit government has not given sufficient guarantees that funds will be available to operate the school.

He said Vancouver’s four teaching hospitals must decide how to divide the $50 million allocated by the federal and provincial for expanding medical teaching facilities before the UBC expansion can go ahead.

And UBC wants assurances that the provincial government will increase the unhersity’s operating grant when the expansion takes place so the medical school can pay professors, staff and other operating expenses.

Education minister P a t McGeer announced in March 1976 that the government would build a 240-bed acute care hospital on campus and double the size of medical school enrolment to 160 from 80.

McGeer predicted the enrolment would double by fall 1977 but last N o v e m b e r a d m i n i s t r a t i o n president Doug Kenny said the enrolment would not double until 1979.

But Webber said Wednesday the indefinite,y, although he hopes ASSHOLE OF UNIVERSE s i t s in middle of construction site for new, equipment.

Meanwhile, construction of the new hospital is running smoothly and is slightly ahead of schedule, assistant hospital administrator David Bird said.

The UBC English department is launching an attack on one of the roots of the student literacy problem - bad teaching.

Department head Robert Jordan said the department is considering setting up a program in English skills for English majors who plan to go into teaching.

The program “will be an effort to break into the vicious cycle and give more effective literacy skills to thestudents who will be teaching i n s c h o o l s .

“If some of the deans are not doing what the board approved I can assure that it will be brought up a t the next board meeting and I’ll also ask about it on Monday when I talk to Dr. Kenny.”

Report By MIKE BOCKING

The provincial government should spend $100-million to im- prove post-secondary education facilities, says a report released by the ministry of education. The report, by UBC professor Brahm Wiesman, urges a major con- struction program to upgrade Lower Mainland community colleges and vocational training centres.

“Facilities for post-secondary education in the Lower Mainland have never been adequately funded since the establishment of the community colleges,” says Weisman, a professor of com- munity and regional planning.

The rapid growth of suburban areas and the provincial govern- ment’s desire to expand vocational

training makes the program necessary.

The program will take a t least six years to complete, says Weisman.

And because “this is an unac- ceptably long time to provide the services that a r e required, con- tinuation of- certain makeshift arrangements as well as the provision of additional temporary accommodation are recom- mended.”

The report suggests dividing the Lower Mainland into six “primary service” areas, named Capilano, New Westminster, Langley, Rich- mond, Surrey and Vancouver.

Each area would be served by one muti-purpose campus, except Vancouver which already has three.

The campus centres should have 300,000 square feet of floor space, Wiesman says, “to provide an adequate level of diversity and the opportunity for some program specailization.

But they must “avoid excessive size that leads to highly impersonal institutions that require complex administrative institutions,” he says.

The report recommends the B.C. Institute of Technology continue to specialize in higher technology education, but not duplicate programs which can be offered at other centres.

The Burnaby Vocational In- stitute and the Vancouver Vocational Institute should con- tinue to provide vocational training, the report states, “but

their role as the primary location for vocational training should diminish as these programs are developed by the proposed multi- purpose institutions.”

The program’s largest ex- penditure would be in New Westminster.

The report recommends buildings a permanent centre in downtown New Westminster with at least 300,000 square feet of floor space at a cost of $23 million.

A centre of similar size is proposed f o r Whalley at a cost of $22.5-million.

Richmond would have a campus centre of 180,000 square feet and woulduse an empty school on Sea Island for special programs. The

0 the minimum standing for transfer from another university into second year or higher be 60 per cent in the most recent year of rtnrlics:

0 a student with a normal courseload who passes all courses but achieves an average below 55 per cent in the commerce courses be considered a failure on the year ;

Fulton says part-time ‘wave of the future’

The part-time student is the way of the future, dean of women Margaret Fulton said Wednesday.

“The traditional 18 to 21-year- old male university student is now almost non-existent and the part- time, drop-in and drop-out student is the way of the future,” Fulton told students in a speech a t the bookstore Wednesday.

“Students Feel that UBC is like a supermarket. They walk through and collect credits in academic information but never receive a genuine education.”

Fulton said education is a life- long experience and the university structure hastochange to meet the demands of career-oriented part- time students.

“We have to learn to free up the system to help get a life-time education, not just academic knowledge,” she said.

Reacting to proposed amend- ments to the Universities Act which would limit student repre- sentation on university governing

bodies to full-time students, Fulton said she supports the idea of part- time student representatives.

“Students a r e taking a year off universityand then dropping out to do career research and when they return they know what they want and what they need,” she said.

“These students are the way of the future and the university should recognize this.”

Fulton emphasized that women are a part of the changes:

“Because women are different the structure must change. Society has been structured by men for men and the system has been for the support of men. With the breakdoyn and restructuring of these systems men will also be freed.”

Fulton said the dean of women’s off ice is “an ombuds service” and a place to register complaints.

The office, currently located in Buchanan 456, will likely be moving to Brock Hall next year or sooner.

centre ,would cost a total of $14 million.

Remodelling of existing centres and use of portable buildings makes up the remainder of the project costs.

Weisman urges the governmknt to avoid the construction of monument-style buildings at these centres .

“Many of the temporary and makeshift arrangements the colleges have used in recent years provide a non-institutionalized adaptable human scale of building.

“Permanent buildings are liable by comparison to become ar- c h i t e c t u a l s h o w p i e c e s , monumental, inflexible and less inviting. . . this should be avoided.”

New name not helping former NDU

NELSON - (CUI‘) Notre Dame University is dead. Long live David Thompson University Centre (DTUC).

The battle cry of the people of Nelson? Not exactly. According to David Thompson student spokesman Steven Whitmore, DTUC was stillborn.

Legislation concerning the futureof DTUC has been held up in the legislature. Bill 68 has only received first reading and is in committee.

“David Thompson is only a name,” Whitmore said.

“We have approximately 7 5 students with virtually nothing. We have no student services, no housing, no bookstore, no recreational facilities and no third and fourth year courses,” he said.

NDU was a privately-run university until this.summer when the provincial government took it over after much controversy and amid protests from Nelson rcsidents.

Renamed the David Thompson University Centre, the university is designed to provide access to university programs to interior residents.

According to admissions director Martin Brown, DTUC has no third or fourth year courses and students wishing to complete their NDU degrees will have to go elsewhere.

“Students wishing to complete their NDU degrees can receive extra grants of up to $2,500 to go elsewhere, depending on need,” Brown said.

“The situation is confusing to some students, but for the most part they a re being taken care of,” he said.

Third and fourth year courses might be reinstated at DTUC some time in the future, according to Jim Bennett, executive assistant to B.C. education minister Pat McGeer.

“It would have to be up to the interior programming board, but it is possible,” he said.

The interior programming board is a Ihiversities Council of B.C. committee which will be recom- mending a program of courses for the enterior, to be offered by coastal universities.

DTITC’s administration at present, is actually a satellite of Selkirk College. But Whitmore said Selkirk doesn’t want DTUC in its current structure.

“The administration is a mess- up and muddled mostly because they (Selkirk) don’t want to look after it (DTUC) but have to because the government has o:= dered it,” Whitmore said.

Brasses' raise will hurt UBC

Some people never learn, do they? W,hen the UBC board of governors handed

administration president Douglas Kenny and his four vice-presidents $2,400 salary increases last year, the public reaction was not positive, to put it succinctly.

I . And now they've done it again. With the latest $2,176 increases, Kenny now earns $64,576 annually and vice-presidents Charles Connaghan, Michael Shaw, Eric Vogt and William White each fetch $56,976. Hardly poverty cases.

The board could not have come up with worse timing for the increases if they had tried to. The university is making massive cutbacks in the face of the Social Credit budget squeeze, and students are shelling out a t least 25 per cent more tuition.

It 's so obvious it hardly bears repeating. The decision comes a t a time when this university's

public image is a t a low ebb, a t a time when it is under fire for mollycoddling academics. This is going to be some help.

The public image really began, to crumble last fall when the first wage increase for the Kenny crew was revealed. Then came revelations of academics earning wads of money on the side, with university equipment. And now this.

The board of governors are the same people who helped set the administration line in dealing with UBC's clerical workers. Almost two years ago, their strike was broken and-they had to settle for meagre wage increases which were rolled back by the anti-inflation board. The clerical workers wanted to receive pay any skilled person would receive.

Because they are mainly women in normally low-paying secretarial work, they are paid less than others with fewer skills.

But because they don't have the ear of board members or aren't buddies like the Kenny crew are, they got shafted.

Hold down inflation, they told the workers. How come they forgot it when dealing with the Kenny crew?

Board member George Hermanson tried to rationalize the increase by saying university presidents have to be paid well and Kenny's wage is far from the highest in Canada.

Doesn't it make your heart bleed? It's difficult to believe that any job, unless it involves laying one's life on the line, would have difficulty drawing good people for $64,000.

It's this senseless keeping up with the Joneses mentality that is partially responsible for today's tight money situation. And anyway, why should the board be concerned about attracting new people? Kenny and the vice-presidents, as far as we know, aren't planning on leaving soon.

The board minutes note that Kenny "advised" the board about the increases before leaving the room during the deliberations. Sure, Kenny probably said, "Aw shucks, we don't need it, but if you really want to know . . ."

Such stupidity will give the Socreds more fuel in their defence of their tight-money policies on the universities. In the end, these wage increases may cost a great deal more than $20,880.

And students, if the past is any guide, will wind up footing the bill.

I've got In the past two years, the flow of

information around campus has slowed to the pace of chilled crankcase oil. And in the same period the amount of news stories embarrassing the administration has increased greatly.

Are these two things related? You bet they are.

Information blackouts, especially from governments and public institutions, are usually disquieting a t best. And when newspeople stumble across stories which people would want to hide, the uncomfortablefeeling gets worse.

The two wage increases given administration president Douglas Kenny and his four vice-presidents illustrate this we1l:This summer and last, when the board of governors gave them the increases, they made a deliberate and low-key effort to keep the increases secret.

But when The Ubyssey revealed both

a secret sets of increases and the commercial press followed suit, the result was highly embarrassing for the university.

In both cases, reporters were greeted with choruses of "no comments'' when they asked administration types about the increases. Only some board members would talk.

I f the board of governors really believes the salary boosts are necessary, why don't they go public ,with their decision when it is made, and explain why?

But since they attempted to deep-six the information, one can only conclude that there were no good reasons for the boosts.

Such logic can be extended to the majority of board decisions, which today are labelled secret. I f the administration depends on a veil of secrecy to hide its bad decisions, the university is bound to suffer whether the secrecy is maintained or not.

Lousy food, high prices

Many students returned from their summer holidays to discover a revised menu at the SUB cafeteria (not a change in quality, which would be welcome, but rather a price hike). In a typically sporting gesture,

the food service implemented the changes without protest, one week after spring finals, when the most vociferous group within the lhiversity "family," the under- graduates, were conveniently out of the way.

An example of the sort of changes is the replacement of the 35 cent budget burger and 70 cent quarter pounder with a less than quarter pound 80 cent hamburger. That same minute bag of french fries has also risen in price to 50 cents. a 67 per cent increase. A simple burger and fries lunch is now over $1, and you get less food than ever before!

Therefore it is now the time to act! I ask The Ubyssey to protect the students by holding an inquiry regarding the food service plan- ning and pricing policies. The revised menu may be justified, or

it may just be another attempt to profit from the oppressed and hungry students by providing low- quality food a t relatively high prices .

Pit pains After spending the summer

away from UBC wandering around B.C. you can imagine my surprise when I returned to the Pit to discover the new price of beer. It's outrageous! Grabbing my trusty and ready calculator I find a 15 cent increase in a 60 cent beer results in a 25 per cent increase in price. Disgusting!

In this age of wage and price controls this showed a blatant disregard for the income of the student. Just because they raise tuition fees by 25 per cent doesn't mean they have to increase the price of the beer by the same amount.

Seriously, if the price increase is needed to prevent the non-drinking students from supporting those who frequent the Pit then okay, but in the meantime let's see some reasons why this massive increase has occurred.

By DOUG SMITH Canadian University Press

Traditionally, immigrants to Canada have been given the hardest work, the worst farmland, the lowest pay and the poorest of living conditions. In keeping with this xenophobic tradition, through which the country has been de- velopedon the backs of people with funny last names, comes the new federal immigration bill.

The bill, which was passed by the House of Commons in July, gives wide-ranging powers to officials of the department of immigration to decide who will be admitted to Canada and who will be deported. The legislation overturns many judicial concepts such as the.right to a hearing, the assumption of innocence until guilt is proven and

Doug Smith wrote this article for The Manitoban, the student paper a t the University of Manitoba. This article is reprinted through Canadian University Press.

introduces a form of guilt by association.

The bill has drawn considerable criticism for increasing the grounds for deportation and refusal of admission. The govern- ment has justified these

.regulations as being necessary for continued national security.

However, NDP MP Andrew Brewin says the government has not provided any evidence that immigrants have constituted a major threat to national security. Brewin says he thinks the government's actions were highly exaggerated and added that deportation should only be used in the rarest of cases. He pointed to the fact that under special anti- terrorist legislation that was passed for the Olympic games, only two people, to his knowledge, had been arrested.

The legislation has been termed "racist, discriminatory and un- worthy of a civilized country" by an advisory committee to the

Quebec immigration department. An immigrant can now be

refused admission to Canada if it is thought that he or she is not a genuine immigrant. Distinctions between counterfeit and genuine immigrants are not included in the bill, and will be left to the dis- cretion of the department of im- migration.

Also included in the prohibited class are those people for whom

Pity the poor peddler ~

there are reasonable grounds to believe they will engage in acts of espionage or subversion against democratic governments. This is coupled with a ban on people likely to engage in, or instigate, the subversion by force of any government in the world.

This legislation could bar people who had opposed the Chilean junta or the regime of Idi Amin. If the legislation had been in effect in the 1930s, it would have allowed the deportation of refugees from Nazi Germany, because many of them were likely to advocate the destruction of the German government.

The legislation is frightening not only in the way it appears to cut out many political refugees but in the way decisions are reached on the basis of mere speculation, rather than any hard proof. A person merely needs to be associated with such a disapproved group to be deported. Association is another term that is being left to in- terpretation by the authorities.

A person can be deported if he or she falls into any of the above described prohibited categories. It will be possible for the minister of

A suggestiQn put forward last year is to put the cycle path on the north sideof University Boulevard, which would pose a number of problems. There is also a desperate need f or bicycle racks to which it is possible to properly and easily lock a bicycle.

Most of all, cyclists need some respect from the administration which would go a long way to rectifying the situation. But the. time for passively waiting for this to happen is long over - the time has come for direct protest and the formation of cyclists' groups to represent their interests.

Peltier sentenced for murders OTTAWA (CUP) - General

Custer is dead but his spirit lives on.

activist Leonard Peltier has been sentenced, on the strength of forced testimony, to two con- secutive life terms for the shooting of two FBI agents on the Pine Ridge reservation in North Dakota on June 26. 1975.

The death of Joe Stuntz, a native American killed the same day, has not resulted in any charges being laid.

Eleven marshals and a handful of court officials heard the verdict, while 50 anxious spectators waited outside, denied entrance by Judge Paul Benson. In rendering the verdict, Benson

ruled irrelevant testimony in- dicating the FBI had used threats of murder charges and life sen- tences to obtain affidavits against Pel tier.

Before the sentencing, Peltier

issued a statement predicting the judge’s verdict of two consecutive iife terms. “You are about to perform an act which will close one more chapter in the history of the failure of the United States courts . . . to do justice in the case of a native American.”

Prosecution testimony was permitted even after witnesses said they were coerced into testifying by the FBI. The prosecution’s case rested on the evidence of two witnesses, Myrtle Poor Bear and Norman Brown.

Both Brown and Poor Bear presented evidence of FBI misconduct during preliminary hearings before the judge. But Benson refused to let them testify before the jury.

After the shootings, 80 to 100 FBI agents raided the Pine Ridge reservation with helicopters, “16s and sawed-off shotguns. Home after home was invaded for no stated reason. It was in this at-

Mexico government represses workers

MEXICO CITY ( C U P ) - The It also refused to grant a 20 per commercial media are paying cent wage increase and re- little attention to increasing installation of workers f i r e d for government repression in Mexico, participating in previous strikes. according to a summer report from a California-based research group specializing in Latin America.

The North American Congress on Latin America reports says the Mexican government is keeping promises to international cor- porations to hold down wages by using fierce, repressive measures against striking workers in that country. As a recent example, the report

documents a police occupation of a major university, mass arrests and kidnapping of union leaders early in July. It calls Mexican press coverage “sketchy” and says the international press has @nored the event entirely.

Seventeen thousand police took over the autonomous University of Mexico the morning of July 7 and. arrested more than a thousand workers and professors on strike after three months of unsuccessful negotiations with university of- ficials.

The university refused to negotiate with the workers and professors under one contract, hoping to keep the clerical and maintenance workers dividied from the teachersand researchers.

The day before the strike, its principle leaders were kidnapped by plaincothes police agents during a militant march of some 75,000 strike supporters in downtown Mexico City (estimates of the march ranged from 40,000 to 200,000).

Most of the one thousand prisoners werereleased in the days following the occupation, but some strike leaders remained in jail for more than a week.

The strike was settled late in the summer, with the union winning reinstallationand a joint contract, but failing to get the wage in- crease, according to information from the Toronto-based Latin American Working Group.

“lhe Mexican government,” the NACLA report says, “is under strong pressure to keep the workers’movement in line. Mexico was granted a $1.2 billion emergency loan by the In- ternational Monetary Fund in late 1976, under the conditions that it severely restrict government spending in non-productive fields and keep wage increases to a minimum.”

Law student fights ticket.patrol That parking ticket you just got

might be illegal, if a UBC law student gets his way. As 41 university patrolmen prepare to get into full swing next week ticketing cars and towing them off to prison at the south end of campus, a UBC law student is preparing a law suit against the university which might prove it

has no authority to find anycne for parking anywhere on university grounds a t any time.

If his action is successful, the university could be ordered to refund all fines it has collected over the last six years, the time under the statute of limitations.

Last March, the student, Ian Tod, said the Universities Act

allows the board of governors to regulate traffic on campus but not to levy fines. The act gives the board power to move cars which are impeding traffic but not cars parked beside yellow curbs or in the wrong parking lot.

Tod. a selfconfessed, many-time offender against the university’s parking regulations first became

“But it is a back-assed way of doing it.” he said. “They should be improving the quality of education with smaller classes and a better student-teacher ratio to ensure students have an adequate level of knowledge.

“?he main reason for these measures,” he said “is because of R lack of money.”

Alma Mater Society president John DeMarcosaid “standards are

already stringent to get into the faculty.”

DeMafco also disagreed with the new proposal to fail students who fail only six units of their course load.

Commerce students regularly take 18 units.

DeMarco said students should get credit for courses they pass regardless of their standing on other courses.

“They are creating an artificial harrier,” said Sandhu, “they are not dealing with the central issue which is teaching quality.”

In other business senate decided not to require French 11 as prerequisite to entering UBC. John Dennison and Peter Pearse moved to change the language requirement from any language other than English a t the grade 11 level, to only French 11.

Dennison said that because french is the other official language of Canada, anyone who reaches university should have a basic, minimal knowledge of that language. The amendment was n a r r o w l y d e f e a t e d .

He said he wanted to charge the daministration with theft at the time, but decided not to because if he lost, he thought the judge would probablyorder him to pay costs for the administration’s lawyers.

Tod has now completed ex- tensive research on the case and believes he can win in court. To back his action, he is seeking financial support from the Alma Mater Society and is also asking help from the Law Students’ Association and from Legal Research, a student-run organization.

Because he will argue the case himself, Tod estimates it will cost no more than $1,000 for all ex- penses, even in the event of an adverse judgement. On the other hand. if successful, an enormous

sum of money could be pried from the university, he said.

UBC traffic superintendent Dave Hannah, said he could not begin to estimate how much money was collected in fines during the last six years. Last year his department issued 25,000 parking tickets, but many of them were not paid.

Tcd admitted the courts will not be sympathetic to his claim.

“chief- Justice Nemetz of the Supreme Court is on the board of governors of the university, I believe. and the case will come before one of his colleagues,” Tod said. “It will have to be an airtight argument or they will find a hole in it.”

While Tod is preparing his court case, campus patrolment are going about their business as usual: 25,000 parking tickets a year.

Towing charges a re up this year to$15from$l2.50. And several cars havealready been towed, although traffic supervisor Hannah says that until next week his ppatrolmen are only nailing flagrant violators. But next week the university will be settled down and his men will ticket at the normal rate, he warned.

Soviet Union encourages age research

SAN FRANCISCO (ENS-CUP) -The Soviet Union is encouraging the research of scientists who want to discover how to help people live for 400 years.

L. V . Komarov, a biologist and vice-chairman of the newly-formed National Committee on the Ar- tificial Prolongation of Human Life, is . experimenting on houseflies, becaqe their short lifespan means that results show up faster.

Komarov says he’s ex- perimentally doubled the life of houseflies by feeding them “magnetized sugar.” Experiments on humans a r e now being designed.

The Soviet Union plans to open experimental “geriatric con- sultation departments” in several major cities. According to one official, “the Soviet Union wants to ensure Soviet people an active, long life, to preserve manpower resources, and the long-time capacity of its citizens.”

Indeed. an acute manpower shortage is one of the main reasons the Soviets a re so interested in prolonging life. How does the average Soviet

citizen fee l about t h e possibility of adding 330 years to his or her life?
