These were described by adniinistration spokesmen as threats and unreasonable. ThenCAUT brought forth a second four-part suggestion: (1) that an external committee be set up to examine the entire university structure (2) that a second committee examine the tenure deci- sions (3) that the trusteeship be suspended, and (4) that the entire Academic Freedom and Tenure Brief (which covers the wholeareaofthe rightsof Free Speech) be reviewed and re-interpreted. The administration countered with an offer to form an externalcommittee that should examine only the PSA Dept., and report to Dr. Strand alone. This was rejected . by the PSA Dept. as futile and ridiculous. Over 700 PSA students and faculty met onMonday, September 22, and voted 20 to 1 to call a strike vote for the following Wednesday if the administration did notagree at least to negociate concerning their demands. Strand and Sullivan remained amazingly hard to talk to, and the strike wenton.Nineoutof fifteen professors stopped teaching classes, and many others gave discussions only.

Editorial: RON KIRKBY Whether we realize it or not, the crisis at Simon Fraser University will deeply effect the lives of everyone at Wic., probably in detrimental ways. For if the PSA department loses its fight with the SFU Administration and Faculty, then it will certainly be disbanded and dispersed, a result which will m e h the end of any kind of serious educational innovation in B.C. for years to-come. The fight is essentially over the nature of education: what it will be, what it is supposed to be for, who is to be benefited by it and in what ways, and s o on. ORTHODOX WAYS The SFU Administration and most of the Faculty obviously believe be carried on inorthodoxandtraditional thateducationshould ways, for traditional ends: the producingof cadres of trained middle and high echelon managers and technicians for the advanced industrial state. The PSA department, on the other hand, believes that education should serve the real interests of the people of this society: most importantly,theinterestwe all have in discoveringthesources of the of social andeconomicinequalityandinjustice,thecauses so often by modernindustrialsociety, massmurdercommitted and so on; and so serve the interest we all have in finding the remedies forthem,howeverradicalandfar-reachingthoseremedies might be. BATTLE LINES DRAWN is literally a fight to the death. What PSA wants is simply to be left alone, so it can do i t s work. What the Administration wantsis an end to the PSA department as it now exists; andit is apparently prepared to use any means necessary for achieving its end, including, potentially, the use of the armed might of civilsocietytothrow the “troublemakers”out into the street. Make no mistake about it: the PSA departmentdoescreate it has totell the truthaboutsociety;andit has taken trouble: seriously the mandate of the assembled Faculty, a year or so ago, to democratize and deczntralize the University. And so now students in PSA have parity with the faculty in that most crucial of all de-’ cisions: who shall be hired, fired andpromoted. The r e s t of the CRAIGDARROCH Facultyat SF’U see studentself-determination as a real threat.

For, whether we know it or not, ourfate, as a n institution, and particularly as human beings, is tied intimately to the fate of PSA. To support PSA is to support those who really care aboutwhathappenstotheworld,and who have a fair idea of how to stop our endless stumbling from catastrophe to disaster. To support the Administration at SFU is to support those who are bent on maintaining the status quo, and therewith the modern disasof t e r s of alienation,deathandthemechanizationanddomination men by men.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER The British Columbia Union of Students (BC,uS) got together last weekend (at the Devonshire Hotel), I think.

And for the f i r s t day,that’sabout all it was a group of elitists getting together for a little chat. The Union has been in troublesinceearly August, when UBC shafted the rest of the Union by going ahead with i t s own election plans after telling the rest of the universities, as Well as the general public, otherwise. UBC’s External Affairs director, Mike Doyle, had not believed thattheotheruniversitieswereupset‘with UBC’s cenductconcerning BCUS, although Bob Hickey had frequentlytold-himthat we were.

He is a mentat very sensible speaker, not resorting to radical jargon or hystrionics. H i s opinions of what’s going on at SFM can be found elsewhere in this paper. The next day we assembled as, I think, the Union. BCUS passed a motionopposing n i l forms of commercial merchandising on the campus, and recommending all B.C. institutions of post-secondary education join Western Student Services (WSS). We then urged negotiationsbetween PSA andthe SFM administration, as outlined by the CAUT.

To date, they have been found guilty once--the Straight got a $1500 fine and Dan McLeod was fined $500 as well as being placed on a three year peace bond--and innocentonce.They were found innocent on nine counts of obscenity when the judge ruled that the paper, as a whole, was not obscene. People in the Straight say that the paper has two main objectives atpresent:to showsociety’shypocriticalattitudetowardssex, and to demonstrate that politics is bullshit. One person on the staff called the Straight, “The most vulnerable part of the tip of the iceburg of a social revolution.’’ Straight people are also finding out that a free press is only free so long as it does not attack the morals and power of the ruling class. In aneditoriallastFriday,theVancouverProvince said, “But sees thelawbehavinglikean ass, the in a society that too often interpretation puton thecase by theStraight’s readers will be obvious. It will be that of defence lawyer John Laxton: ‘It is time to bring the persecution of thisnewspapertoan end.One cannot escape the conclusion that itis being victimized, that there has been abuse of the judicial process.’ ’, Dr. Shoenfield, author of the column ‘Hip-Pocrates’, is expected to come up from California to appear in the Oct. 8 trial.

Due to did not mysterious reasons, the recommendation appear at the Dean’s office until August 25. H i s case had simply not been dealt with, and he could not get any concrete answers as to why it had not been dealt with earlier. In a space of three days, from Aug. 25 27, Minskywasinformed of h i s non-renewal (and he received a registered letter on Aug. 27 tellinghimthat he hadbeen fired).

Dr. Brysonreceivedmeimmediatelyin a large Spartanlydecorated office. He hasgrey hair, grey spectaclesand a greysuit. He told melaterhe had been in the mental Health Branch for thirty years, all of h i s professional career. WHAT WE DO TO OUR SICK The C.B.C. newsreported on September12that eightmentalpatientsdestinedforRiverviewHospital werebeiqgheld in VancouverCity Jail. TheMartlet wanted tofindout why theywereinthe jail, who putthemthere,andtogetsomeprofessionalopinions on what happens to mentally distrubed people when they are incarcerated in a jail. I went to Vancouver on the 15th and saw Dr. Demetri Papageorgis, a clinical psychologist at U.B.C. He said that he did not know what thepsychiatricview would be on theeffects of jail onmentallydisturbed people but he suspected that it would not be much more harmful than putting them in mental institutions. PRIVATE PRACTICE LUCRATIVE He said themainbroblem’atRiverview was the shortage of adequatemedicalstaff. He explainedthat i f he couldmaintainthefullcomplement of staff he couldrunthehospital at capacity.Theproblem of staff boils down tomoney he said.“Privatepractice is much morelucrativethanthecivil service So that is where most psychiatrists go. Dr. Bryson explained thatalthoughthecapacity of thehospitalwas 3014 patients,it is running at 2500 duetothestaffshortage. M A I N PROBLEMS He saidthatthemainproblemwithlargemental take disturbedindividualsout hospitals is thatthey of their familiar environments and put them in a large, alien place, where,because of thelargepatientto staffratio,theygetmainlydLcustodial’’ care as opposed to therapeuticcare.Custodialcare,oncevery common,consists of druggingthepatient(theterm used is medication) so that he is no longer harmful to himself or anyone else. Dr. Papageorgis said most mentally disturbed people are potentiallyharmfulonlytothemselvesandthey should be able togettreatmentintheir own communities at smallmentalhealthcentreswherethey could get day care if possible. H e said that it was important to disrupt the normal life of the disturbed person as little as possible, He said itwasgenerally true the longer a person spent in a mental institution, the worse he would be on being released. is reallyquitesim*’Theprocedureforcommital ple,” explained Dr. Papageorgis. ”For example if you thought yourneighbourwasbehavingoddly or being a nuisance, all you would havetodo is callthe call in a docpolice who would investigateandthen tor if they felt there was any substance to your comthought yourneighbourwasin plaint.

Once a person has been certified as mentally ill he has, ineffect,lost h i s civil of the B.C. MentalHealth rightsand is inthehands Service.

The hospitalconsists of a number of large oldbuildings, complete with cornerstones commemorating past political greats, some with imposing, white, southern mansio? typecolumns at their entrances. The setting is lush and park like. ENTl RE TREATMENT Dr. Bryson said that care and treatment in a mental hospital is only one phase of the entire treatment of a mentalpatient. r c I f he ends up here it is usually because there were not enough resources at the beginning to keep him out. We need more boarding homes, foster homes, and group homes for mentally distrubed people.

RUGBY IN THE- OLD COUNTRY by H o w a r d G e r w i n g G e n e r a l M a n a g e r UVlC rugby club The UVicRugby Club’s tour of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales was more successful than expected. Only two of the six games played were won but every game was a good game and many complimentswere given to us from the spectators, old and young, the officials, serious and jocular, the press, big and little, and, of course, our worthy opponents. We lost our first game to the Old Edwardians of Birmingham 16-11. We were fitter and more enthusiastic in our play, but when we lost Bob Panton with a concussion early in the game our chances of winning became very slim. Nevertheless, we ended the game with a fine try byKen Wilkie. We started our second game against Roundhay, Leeds, with an eye-popping runfromour 25 yard line, everyman handling and Neil Bonnell going round under the post. A few minutes later we were in full flightagain. another sure try in the bag, when NeilBonnellgotcaughtwiththe ball, took a heavy tackle and suffered a double dislocation of the shoulder. Needless to say this took the starch out ofusand though we fought back gamely by the theirvery finewinger name of Somersran for five t r y s in the last twenty minutes of the gameandputupon the wrongend of the 25-6 score. In our third game we had learnt our lesson. We wereplayingvery good teams and we became more cautious. A t the half we were down 9-3 on penalty kicks but in the second half Van Pratt scored t r y after a very beautihl a clever moveby our scrum half David Slater. DavidSlater scored then A1 another good t r y and Foster in the dying minutesof the game galloped over to give u s a 12-9 victory over the Edinburgh Academicals. InDublin, the Wanderers told us they were out to put us down hard. No mercy was to be given and after the first ten minutes it lookedbad for us as we were down 13-0. But then Gary Johnstoncamethrough with a gut tearing effort and our scrum really began to push and set Dave Slater up for another spectacular try. At the half the Wanderers were fighting to retain their 1310 lead.However, their slightly superior scrum workgavethem the edge and they won a very exciting game 27-18. Philip Love, the Dublir: Wanderers President, had intended to leave thegame early for businessreasons, but because we constantly threatened to recover ourdeficit he sat to the end, andwatched usonceagain score the final try. In Cardiffour 20-8victoryover Glamorgan Wanderers proved that we were learning and learning well. It was an inspiring team effort butTedHardyand MikeElcockshouldbe singled out for theirexceptional play. InOxford we ran into Chris Laidlaw, one of the best scrumhalfs in the world,and a really fine Greyhound team. The Oxford paperremarked that the Greyhound‘s will probably never field such an illustriousside again. Nevertheless, our second trywas indeed a beautiful thing to watch and it was no disgrace to go down to such a side 11-6. The hospitality of rugby players is well known the world over buton this trip I found it diffithe genercult to keepupwith osity of our hosts. We met so many exciting and lively people it would require a book to desso many cribe them. We saw famous sights (Westminster Abbey, Coventry Cathedral, the town of Rugby, Edinburgh Castle, the Abbey Theatre, Mumbles, Oxford University, The Guinness Works) it would take more thana book to list them. The tour wasan exciting adventure and all the players who travelled are extremelygrateand ful to every man, woman child who supported thetour in any way whatsoever. Is there a student here whowould scoff at money to the tune of $1660 dollars for attending Universitfl Didn’t think so. Well, Ontario students have a money for students plan that puts B.C. even further back into the dark ages. For example, Jane Chapin, a bhird year philosopb major at the University of Victoria, this year received interest free loans to the tune of $600 and a grant of $1!l60. That’s right people, a grant of $1060. The Ontario government asks you how much money you have, asks howmuch YOU need, then gives you the difference in loans and bursuries. Since nobody is granted loans exceeding $600, the balance is a gift, In Jane’s case the gift was $1360. YOU Notbad considering she’s studying at a University that‘s three thousand miles from Ontario.
