SIR GEORGE WILLIAMS UNIVERSITY OUR HANDBOOK! VOL. XXX SEPTEMBER 16 , 1966 No. 2 WAIT TIL YOU SEE Loyola Handbook Seized by Council In an unprecedented move on Monday, the Student Council of Loyola College seized 2,900 copies of the student handbook. The alleged reason for the sei- zure was that the publication con- tained attacks on a number of the college’s officials, including the ins- titution’s president, Patrick G. Ma- lone, S.J. “The Loyola .students Lower House released the Handbooks yesterday. Included in the book is a statement by that body.” Handbooks traditionally serve as an introduction for the student to campus life, including facilities, programs, and other activities. The Loyola handbook included such captions as “Introduction — Loyola is an English-Catholic old- age home” . Another said “Students associations are failing in their so- cial responsibility’. Regarding the President of the College, “Father Malone is trying very hard to build a university image in order thaf Loyola obtain its charter; he has succeeded in creating an American High Schooll’. Editor Henry Sobotka charged that Council’s action was unconsti- tutional and motivated by the pre- sumed opinion of the administra- tion. “The handbook” , Sobotka con- tended, ‘tried to get to the root of problems plaguing many universi- ties, including Loyola”. Sobotka added that only the Board of Pub- lications had the jurisdiction over the Loyola press. - The seizure action resulted in an emergency session of the lower hou- se — the school’s student assembly. A motion ratifying Monday’s move passed by a vote of nine to five with two abstentions. A motion censuring the Student Board of Publication was also pas- sed with clauses calling for swift reorganization of the Board. In another meeting held Wednes- day evening the Lower House de- cided to release the handbook with an accepted motion of censure. The motion states that the edition of the handbook “departs from the traditional format by emphasizing issues that the student will likely encounter in college’.

The brief was prepared by Ste- ve Goldberg and Vic Melnikoff during the summer at the re- quest of the council. The Ombudsman is a student whose sole purpose is to bring about an agreement between dis- puting factions of the student body. These disputing parties could be student organizations or the. students themselves. The om- budsman’s jurisdiction is two- fold: first, the ombudsman will mediate and resolve infringe- ments suffered by a student or a student official at the hands of a student organization; second, he will also resolve complaints by a student organization aginst a stu- dent or student official.

Loyola H andbook Seized by CouncilIn an unprecedented move on
Monday, the Student Council of Loyola College seized 2,900 copies of the student handbook.
The alleged reason for the seizure was that the publication contained attacks on a number o f the college’s officials, including the institution’s president, Patrick G. Malone, S.J.
“ The Loyola .students Lower House released the Handbooks yesterday. Included in the book is a statement by that body.”
Handbooks traditionally serve as an introduction for the student to campus life, including facilities, programs, and other activities.
The Loyola handbook included such captions as “Introduction — Loyola is an English-Catholic old- age home” . Another said “Students associations are failing in their social responsibility’.
Regarding the President of the College, “Father Malone is trying very hard to build a university image in order thaf Loyola obtain its charter; he has succeeded in creating an American High Schooll’ .
Editor Henry Sobotka charged that Council’s action was unconstitutional and motivated by the presumed opinion of the administration.
“The handbook” , Sobotka contended, ‘tried to get to the root of problems plaguing many universities, including Loyola” . Sobotka added that only the Board o f Publications had the jurisdiction over the Loyola press.
- The seizure action resulted in an emergency session of the lower house — the school’s student assembly. A motion ratifying Monday’s move passed by a vote of nine to five with two abstentions.
A motion censuring the Student Board o f Publication was also passed with clauses calling for swift reorganization of the Board.
In another meeting held Wednesday evening the Lower House decided to release the handbook with an accepted motion o f censure. The motion states that the edition of the handbook “departs from the traditional format by emphasizing issues that the student will likely encounter in college’.

tions might have been unjustly damaged.
Mr. Sobotka is also the editor of the Loyola news.
Loyola College is presently the' subject o f intense study by the government. There is reason to believe that several smaller colleges will be joined with it to form a larger and more complex University.
Ombudsman brief given to council
A brief outlining the proposed duties, powers and privileges ofa student ombudsman was presented to the council of the Students’ Association during W ednesday’s meeting.
The brief was prepared by Steve Goldberg and Vic Melnikoff during the summer at the request of the council.

you down to room H-359, where, if I have not explained myself adequately in the follow ing article, you will further be able to discover the meaning of Seminar.
W ell then, what is Seminar? It is international. By this I mean that it involves people from all corners of the world. But it is not international in the political sense. Rather it is international in scope.
Why have a Seminar? To discuss m ajor current problems on an intellectual level and to try and comprehend situations more fully. Seminar does not expect to com e to any definite conclusion on the topic under discussion, nor will it attempt to. The problem that we have chosen is much too topical and current for any logi
cal agreement to be reached.What is the topic? The Mili
tary in Contemporary Society: Organized Violence in Modern Nations States. What we will attempt to discuss this year are the implications that the military has both in the national and international fields. As, for example, how much military equipment, such as uniforms, rifles, tanks, artillary, aircraft, ships, and munitions, affect the economy of a nation. Or again, how much influence does a General have in the decision-making o f a country. And, as a final example, is there a significant rise in militarism throughout the world, and if so, why. These are, o f course, only some o f the questions which will be discussed during the week of

interested. University students from Canada, the United States, and from a variety of different countries throughout the world. In the main, these students are third and fourth year undergraduates, but a fair number of graduate and post-graduate students also attend. Thus, the people who come here are of the highest caliber possible.
What do delegates do? Every delegate who participates in the Seminar is required to present a 2500 word paper on a topic, which is assigned to him. Then during
regular discussion sessions. As well as preparing research papers the delegates attend lectures delivered by speakers carefully chosen by the Seminar. These are men of reputation, and all are experts in their respective fields.

The Liberal Club of Sir George expects to send as many as 60 members to the Senior Liberal Conference to be held next month. This goal was expressed by the Georgian Liberal Club president, Emil Fattal.
Since next month’s conference will be the last one before the Leadership Convention to be held next year, Mr. Fattal feels that it should prove extremely interesting to members and provide a valuable introduction to the Liberal Party of Canada.

“ Our main objective this year is to get more o f the members involved in formulating policy ’ ’, he explained,” and the way to do it is by getting them involved with the Party.”
“ In the past the Liberal Club of Sir George has had only a few members sitting on the Policy Committee and this has tended to reduce the role of the average member. W e want to change that situation in the coming year.”
Mr. Fattal emphasized the

“ If we disagree with the policies of the Party, we will say so.,” he explained.
There have been no definite committments from prominent Liberals to come to Sir George this year, reported Mr. Fattal. “ We have, however, approached Paul Martin and some other noted speakers in this regard. At present we are awaiting their reply.”

The Students’ Association is Y O U ! It is as simple as that.
You become a member of the Society by virtue of your eligibility and admission to any of the four faculties of the Day Division of Sir G eorge W illiam s University.
A s a member of the Association, you pay fifteen dollars in fees. This is the extra Student Activity Fee which , is tacked on to your bill at registration. The other 15 dollars per student goes to the Athletic Council, and forms a part of the financing o f the Athletic program.
How is this money spent ? W h o spends it ? W h o supervises its spending ? How can I, a stucjent at Sir George, benefit from my fifteen dollar investment ? W e hope to have some of the answers to these and other questions in the fo llow ina space.
THE COUNCIL OF THE SAThe Council ot the Students’ Association
is the popularly elected body that you have indicated should organize, administer and present a program of extra-curricular activity for your benefit.
This council is composed of eleven members elected from the Student Body. Each' Spring. They Are:

Secretary of the Society Treasurer of the Society
Clubs Commissioner

THE FACULTY PRESIDENTS These Faculty Presidents are elected from
their respective faculties at the same time as the other Council members are elected. The Faculty Presidents have the dual role of conducting the program of the Faculty which they lead as well as sitting on Coun cil. The Constitution does not provide for any other duties, but leaves them the time and the freedom to devote to faculty business. But their function on Council as formers of policy is one which is necessary to the smooth functioning of Council.
The Executive Council, on the other hand, has its respective spheres o f interest more or less defined bv the constitution.
LEO N ARD W O L M A N Treasurer
throughout the year, and generally oversees the administration of the budget.
SECRETARY OF THE SOCIETY Accepts all petitions, briefs, and other
documents presented to the Council, and makes sure that these are ava ilab le to the society. Records and posts all minutes of council deliberations, and keeps the records of the society in good order.
D E N N IS RATCHEFF Clubs Commissioner
The Treasury Board
Although the Council of the SA is ultimately responsible for the adm inistration of the finances of the Society, they obviously are so occupied with other equally pressing matters that they have formed a Treasury Board, under the direction of the Treasurer of the Society, to handle the expenditures, budgeting, and other m anagement of the Society’s finances.
This board scrutinizes and approves all budgets of all organs of the Society, ond presents these finished documents to Council for approval.
It is also charged with the responsibility of looking into any irregularities which might arise, and of bringing these to Council’s attention.
The composition of this board is as follows; the Treasurer of the Society as Chairm an, the Administrator as Secretary, the President (or Vice-President), Clubs Commissioner and Publications Commissioner as members.

He is the Council member who cares for many other areas of activity that arise from day to day which do not have particular/ relevence to any other position. He also assumes duties and responsibilities delegated to him by the President of the Association.
PRESIDENT OF THE ASSOCIATION As the Chief Executive Officer o f the
Society, the President is ultimately responsible for all student’s Extra-curricular activity. He is the official representative o f the Student Body in its external contacts. A s the Chairm an of Council, he directs its work in reaching its goals. A s President he is an exofficio member o f every Executive in the Society and also sits on the University Council on Sudent Life as well as the Athletics Council.
A side from those responsibilities set out in the Constitution, Mr. Luciano assumes duties and responsibilities com parable to a business executive.
To lessen the burden of the office, the Society Constitution provides him with an Expense account for use on Society business, and a room in the Y M C A residence
area so that he will be ava ilab le for quick consultation. The Society has, in past years, also payed part o f his tuition in an effort to lessen the financial burden.
The business of the Society, whose budget now reaches $60,000 anually, now presses upon the President to such an extent that the Society might have to provide more funds to lessen the increasing burden of student affairs. Mr. Luciano has voiced the possibility that in future the Society might find it necessary to offer the President a summer job to a llow him to do the research and preparation of Student Undergraduate Society business on a full-time b a sis during the summer. This w ould a llow him to do the research and preparation necessary for informed leadership.

The Publications Board is composed of a five-man Executive, the Editors of the major publications listed above, and the Executive Vice-President, Who is responsible to Council for the Publications feoard.
This organ of the Society spends a higher proportion of the Student's Undergraduate Society Budget than any other single organ. It also solicits revenue through advertising which appears in the various publications, and this money makes up part of the Publication's budget.
THE G E O R G IA N is one of the largest financial items o f the University. This year’s budget estimates have allocated $10,000 of SA funds to the Georgian, and advertising is expected to yield the other $16,000 of revenue which is needed to finance the Georgian for the academic year.

Letters to the editor...LSD, etcetera...
Dear Sir:The use of drugs — from marijua
na and amphetamines to LSD, DMT and peyote — is now a m ajor con troversy. Psychedelic or “ consciousness-expanding” drugs can provide experiences so impressive and profound that more and more people are looking to them as the most immediate and effective way to deepen personal insight and expand awareness. That these experiences are impressive is a well-established fact with us; we have actively follow ed drug research from its earliest roots and are thoroughly familiar with the enchantments of almost every facet o f psychedelic indulgence. Searching for lasting positive value, however, we concluded that drugs constitute only a subtle escape from the conscious effort that eventually must be made.
Although drug enthusiats frequently turn to Eastern philosophers and spiritual teachings for metaphors to describe and justify their psychedelic experiences, no authentic teachings or guides have ever sanctioned the use o f drugs in the quest of increased awareness and enlightenment. Here the statements of Avatar Meher Baba are pertinent. Baba is a non-sectarian spiritual Master — living now in India — who is acknowledged East and W est as the authority on higher states of consciousness. (For one, U.S. psychedelic spokesman Dr. Richard Alpert recognizes Baba’s mastery in this fie ld ).
When consulted about psychedelics. Baba replied: “ The experiences which
drugs induce are as far removed from Reality as is a mirage from water. No matter how much you pursue the mirage you will never quench your thirst, and the search for Truth through drugs must end in disillusionment. Many people in India smoke hashish and gunja — they see colors, form s and lights and it makes them elated. But this elation is only temporary. It gives only experience of illusion, and serves to take one farther away from reality. The feeling o f having had a glimpse of higher states of consciousness may only lull one into a false security. Although LSD is not a physically addicting drug, one can become attached to the experiences arising from its use, and one gets tempted to use it in increased doses, again and again, in the hope of deeper and deeper experiences. But this can only lead to madness.” *
Our experience corroborates Baba’s statement: drugs of any kind inevitably becom e a blind aliey for self-fulfillment. To rely on external means is to ignore one’s inherent capacity to realize his own greatest potential.
Allan Y. Cohen, Ph.D.Robert Dreyfuss, B.A.Frederick Chapman, A.B.
*In his most important book (God Speaks, 1955, Dodd, Mead) Meher Baba outlines the differences between real consciousness and its multicolored shadows. For further information, write Dr. Cohen, Box 487, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, 29577.
W e uote with approval that the Union Na- tionale governm ent of M. Johnson has “ come across” for UGEQ in the qpestion of the policy o f the government toward the abolition of tuition fees.
It was not too long in the past when this concept of financing higher education was definitely in the ‘socialism ’ class, and thus by most minds relegated to the hacks of their minds as a pie-in-the sky’ idea.
From this announcement by the government comes several other significant facts. Of prime importance to us here at Sir George is the role o f UGEQ in all o f this.
W e questioned the wisdom last year of jo in ing UGEQ. Our main criticism seemed to be that it tended to be a nationalistic french Canada pressure group seemingly devoted only to the uplifting of the french Canadian element in our provincial society.
Sir G eorge’s official attitude was that one o f the main reasons we ever went into the group was to work toward the betterment of education in the province.
With this latest development on the Quebec education scene we have been proven right in our instincts. UGEQ’s main push has been in education — its other activities are secondary.
Another most significant fact to com e from this was the status o f UGEQ itself. In January o f last year UGEQ fought very hard to becom e the bargaining agents for the students o f the province. M. Lesage gave them a good Meal of resistance, but finally, at a press conference at AGEL (University o f Laval), he conceded to a questioner that his government had negotiated with UGEQ over the Beaux Arts strikes, and to him this would indicate recognition o f UGEQ. W e had arrived.
More startling that this, however, was the UN’s reaction to the UGEQ presence. When the Ministry o f Education was contemplating a change in the bursary system, they convened a meeting o f the executive officers of UGEQ with the Education department in Qup- bec. At this meeting the governm ent felt com fortable in negotiating across the board, and indeed solicited UGEQ’s cooperation in selling the new pret-bourses system o f finance.
Despite the absence o f several large student groups from the UGEQ circle, most of whom are from the English Universities, the government felt it was speaking to all students in the province.
The significance o f this is considerable. In essence, we have here a government which judges a student union to be both powerful enough and responsible enough to participate in negotiations at the highest level. This kind of student unionist activity is unprecedented in North America.
For this, Quebec, UGEQ, Sir George, ana every Canadian can be proud.
The Managing Board o f the Georgian announced that Mike Taylor, has been chosen as the Editor-in-Chief for the coming publishing year.
Mr. Taylor was previously the Managing Editor o f the paper. Last year he filled the posts o f Sports Editor, Photo Editor and Magazi
ne Editor.'His appointment was caused by
the resignation because o f lack of academic qualification o f Mr. D. John Lynn.
This appointment must now be ratified by the Publications Board and the Council o f the Student’s Association.

Cali -879-5881DAVE BRUBECK, internation
ally acclaimed as one of the w orld’s forem ost jazz personalities, will bring the Dave Brubeck Quartet to the stage of the Paul Sauve Centre on September 28, 1966, to present a jazz concert in the inimitable Brubeck manner.
Brubeck was born in Concord, California, the youngest of three sons. His mother one of the leading piano teachers in the area, and classical piano literature was such an integral part of young Brubeck’s home life that at the age of five he began improvising themes of his own.
His first contact with jazz wai through his older brother, and at age 13 he was causing a sensation with local dance bands, playing such diverse styles as hillbilly, two-beat and swing.
Each member of the Brubeck quartet, to appear at Paul Sauve Center, has won impressive recognition. Paul Desmond, alto
sax, is considered the w orld ’s number one alto-saxophone player. Joe Morelio, has won one poll after another for drummers in the last several years. Gene Wright joined the quartet in January 1958. W right has been featured with Count Basie, Cal Tjader and Red Norvo before his association with Brubeck.
Tickets are available for the Brubeck concert at Paul Sauve Centre or from Ed. Archambault.
