Students call for review o f resid en ce B Y RA M R A N D H A W A

The Inter-Residence Council RC) passed a motion supporting cyclical review of McGill’s Resience facilities at an emergency ieeting called last Thursday rening.

Cyclical reviews are investiitions into the operation of a unit f the university. Unlike internal views, however, whichoften look specific issues, cyclical reviews sually possess a broad mandate id aim for a comprehensive exnination of the unit under reew. Cyclical reviews are per>rmed by a review team not conseted to the unit under investigam.

The university has had a cyical review procedure in place >racademic units for ten years. In )87, the procedure was extended i include administrative units.

Last summer, Students’ Sociy (SSMU) VP University Affairs uth Promislow requested cyclical views of university residences, thletics, and Student Services betuse they were the units that irectly affected students.

Although the initial response as favourable, Promislow was ter informed that cyclical reviews f these units would only be per­

formed if they were requested by fully considered all sides of the issue before passing the motion. the units themselves.

“To do a cyclical review means we’d have to produce all kinds of documents. People would have to be taken away from serving stu­ dents.”

Hoover also said that the administration's workload in­ creased by 25% in the last few years due to the addition of Solin Hall, with no concurrent increase in personnel or wages.

Director of Residences Flor­ ence Tracy echoed Hoover's con­ cerns, but accepted IRC’s decision.

“I feel most of our staff already do one and a half to two times their job. That’s a real con­ cern,” she said. “If [a cyclical re­ view is] what the students want, we’ll go along with it.”

Due to the student majority on URC, unanimous student sup­ port of a cyclical reviewwill ensure URC support.

When asked how he ex­ pected student members of URCto vote at the next meeting, Yeghoyan pointed out that that had been decided at the IRC meeting.

“They [student URC mem­ bers! are mandated to vote based on the decision made at this meet­ ing,” he said. “If they don’t, they must answer to their constituents.”

PC McGill down but not out M o d i f i c a t io n s c o n t i n u e t o Cod<

BY IR E N E BLO EM RA D

It’s business as usual at PC McGill, in spite of the federal Tories’ stunning defeat in the recent election.

“Right now we’re trying to stick together and not lose faith, ” declared Nicole Gervais, Vice President of Progressive Con­ servative Students at McGill (PC McGill).

The federal Tories cap­ tured a mere two seats in the 1993 election, after having formed the government in 1988 with 169 seats. Not only did the Tories fail to keep their status as an official party in Parlia­ ment, but they also have large debts from the campaign, with some estimating a loss of over $1 million in Quebec alone.

Despite plans to close the Montreal PC office, Gervais said the club will not be unduly affected by the party’s financial woes.

“The club gets its funds from membership fees, so we dictate our own programs and have our own budget,” she said.

In September, PC McGill had one hundred members, but Gervais admits she is uncertain how the election will affect the club’s membership.

“It will be interesting to see who jump» off the band­ wagon,” Gervais commented.

Nonetheless, Gervais sees no major changes in the club’s future, nor any fundamental policy reviews.

Arnold Kwok, a member

of PC McGill and secretary of the Tory riding association in St-Henri-Westmount, is not so sure things will stay the same.

“There is going to be a redefinition, a major weeding out process. There may be a lot of new blood coming in,” he said.

However, Kwok also be­ lieves that a lot of people will remain faithful to the party.

“Still, the old guard will stay because they don’t like to see the party they supported go down to two seats.”

Another major challenge the Tories face is the rise of the Reform Party. Many analysts warn the Reform Party might be taking over the right of the Canadian political spectrum, thereby squeezing out the PCs. “Anything could happen, ” said Gervais. “Now that I’ve been through that election, any­ thing is possible."

“I think that Reform pretty much has the West, and it is pretty likely that they’ll be there for a while. However, in On­ tario, Manitoba and in Atlantic Canada, our main competition will be the Liberals.”

Kwok said the way to com­ bat the Reform Party is through a redefinition of the party.

“We basically have to re­ evaluate where we stand. Some thought the recent platform was in the right direction, and the party was just defeated. Some say we were not conservative enough while others thought we were not progressive enough.”

Efforts to improve the Code of Student Conduct and Discipline continued last Thursday, as an ad hoc group struck to discuss possi­ ble amendments met for the third time.

Although members specu­ lated that modifications would be ready for senate approval after three meetings, a fourth meeting will be necessary. Irwin Gopnik, Dean of Students and chair of the group, emphasized that allowing sufficient input and debate was more important than rushing through the amendments.

“I want everyone to feel as

though they’ve had an opportu­ nity to voice their opinion,” said Gopnik.

Some of the issues raised at the meeting involved access to computer accounts and incorpo­ ration of suggestions made by the Legal Information Clinic (LIC).

Concerns were raised about the problems involved in tracing computer mischief.

Re: Russell Bennett’s letter (“In­ stitutionalized...*, Novem ber 23-29).

N obod y is perfect; that’s hu­ man nature. By extension, n o organi­ zation form ed by human beings can be irrefutably p erfect It is therefore unrealistic to exp ect every single o n e o f W alksafe’s volunteers to be be­ yon d reproach, even w h en it com es to issues o f w o m en ’s safety. Rather, it’s important to consider whether Walksafe is doing its best to avoid accepting volunteers with ignorant view s.

Mr. Bennett sp en d s three-anda-half paragraphs o f his letter detail­ ing the insensitivity and ignorance o f his ex-roomm ate, “Peter” (a Walksafe volunteer), towards w o m en ’s issues.

I’m c u r io u s to k n o w w h e th e r Walksafe w a s m ade aware o f this at that time by either Mr. Bennett or any o f “Peter“’s other acquaintances. If not, WHY NOT!?

W alksafe d o es vigilantly inter­ view all potential volunteers, but no degree o f screening can be 100% effective. The responsibility should then rest on ou r shoulders to inform W alksafe sh o u ld s o m e o n e "slip through”. It’s not a perfect situation, but this isn’t a perfect world.

I must also question h o w Mr. Bennett concluded that W alksafe’s “mem bers d o n ’t understand w h y ex ­ actly it is that their services are re­ quired.” Isn’t this a rather broad statem ent co n sid erin g h is letter sp eak s o f o n ly o n e ill-qualified W alksafe volunteer?

In any case, let’s all strive to­ wards perfection, rather than e x ­ pecting it o f others.

In Montreal, “th e p ow ers that b e ’ gave in to a fascist m ob w h o sh outed d o w n a professor w h o had b een invited to speak. Shame!

I d o n ot agree w ith the profes­ sor re: sexual perm issiveness, and h o ld n o op in io n o n th e matter o f recalling ch ild h ood trauma. Yet, I w ou ld , to u se the o ld adage, d efen d to the death anybody's right to sp eak his or her m ind, an d so sh ou ld w e all.

Apparently, sin ce the rise o f militant fem inism and other “p oliti­ cally correct’ m ovem ents, it is dan­ gerous to exp ress certain op inions, w h ich are quickly called racist or sexist, prom oting hatred. What a con ven ien t w ay to silen ce dissent­ ers!

This is a far cry from w hat students w ere taught in the '50s w h e n I studied at University o f T o­ ronto. Professors like Marcus Long told u s that in a free society, o n e has the right to b e wrong; that all o p in ­ ions, ev e n the m ost unpopular o n es, m ust b e listened to and then rebut­ ted through rational arguments. W e w o u ld n ot h ave dream ed o f su p ­ pressing free ideas b y m ean s o f yells, w histles, rattles and other boor­ ish an d m ean fascist tactics.

Analogous...

In her N ovem ber l 6 th co m ­ mentary o n the Bobbitt case in W ash­ ington ( “Fighting back: o n e cut above the rest”, Nov. 16-22), Catrin Morris m akes a valid point o f h o w marital rape an d date rape victims often h ave little legal recourse d u e to inadequate legislation and b ecau se th e nature o f the crim e m akes it difficult to p rove in co u rt H ow ever, the rest o f her c o l­ u m n m akes little sen se. A lthough sh e includes a disclaimer, her co m ­ m entary is a justification o f Loreena Bobbitt’s cutting o ff her h usb and ’s p en is w h ile h e slept, on the grounds that it w as self-d efen ce from marital rape. Catrin Morris tries to illustrate the w orthiness o f Bobbitt’s actions through a stick-up analogy: “If so m e­ o n e h o ld s a gun to you a n d d e ­ m ands your wallet, it is d eem e d selfd efen ce to grab the w ea p o n from the attacker. But if so m e o n e rapes you ... is it m alicious w o u n d in g to

d issever h is w ea p o n — his p en is.”

Not according to Morris, because Ms. Bobbitt 'c o u ld n ’t play e y e for an e y e an d rape her h usband back", a n d w ith this preferred m eans o f retaliation u n availab le, it seem s Bobbitt had little ch o ic e but to act ev e n m ore brutally than her at­ tacker.

Unfortunately for Morris’s the­ sis, h er analogy d o e s n ot pertain to the Bobbitt case. H ere is a relevant analogy: “If so m e o n e h o ld s a gun to y o u a n d takes your w allet it is d eem e d self-d efen ce to sneak u p on the attacker after th e robbery and m utilate him w h ile h e is sleeping.

But if so m e o n e rapes you , is it m alicious w o u n d in g if you sneak u p o n him after the rape and muti­ late him w h ile h e is sleeping?” Re­ v e n g e after an attack is n ot the sam e as self-d efen ce during an attack, and can n ot b e justified as such. The w orst part o f w hat Bobbitt did w as not su ffered by her husband, but by her; b eca u se instead o f m aking her ev e n , it lo w er ed h er to the vicious a n d sadistic level o f her attacker.

G iven the often lackadaisical treatm ent received b y marital rap­ ists in our justice system , I can understand th e frustration w om en lik e Bobbitt m ust feel. But her ener­ g ie s w o u ld have b e e n better spent trying to ch an ge the system rather than cutting o ff her husband’s p en is w h ile h e slept. T he day w h en it is the norm for victims, like Bobbitt, to se e k violen t and cruel reven ge w ith the ch eers o f th o se lik e Catrin Mor­

Exclusion...

W e b elieve that it is tim e that so m e o f SSMU’s constituents speak their m inds frankly, w ithout the fear o f SSMU’s condem nation.

T o begin, the AUS [Arts Un­ dergraduate Society] execu tive ap­ p lauds the efforts and results o f the initiatives taken by the executive m em bers o f SSMU. H ow ever, the m ost important m andate o f unity an d ’politics o f inclusion’ has seem ­ ingly b een shuffled to the back­ ground.

Let us explain ourselves m ore coherently. Throughout the last few m onths, w e have all listened to grievances by our o w n executive, but m ore importantly, other student leaders o n cam pus, expressing ’con ­ cern’ about the actions o f the SSMU executive. T he general con sen su s is that so m e individual m em bers o f the SSMU execu tive have b een un ­ cooperative, exclusionary and sim ­ p ly difficult to deal with. It appears that so m e execu tive m em bers have b e e n an alogous to the "Orwellian Big Brother Syndrom e”. It is clearly n ot a problem o f political roles and m andates, but sim ply extend s to personalities not con d ucive to pro­

ductive work.

T he adm inistration o f SSMU politics rem inds o n e o f authoritar­ ian regim es, ec h o in g the sentim ents alo n g the lin es o f "We k n o w w h at’s b est for you , s o w h at y o u have to sa y ca n ’t b e relevant." Let u s re­ m ind you that a fundam ental tenet o f d em ocracy is the practicing o f politics o f inclusion, n ot exclusion Lay aside your individual van guards an d s e e that you r persona! u ncoop erativen ess, elitist an d a u ­ thoritarian prem ises are n ot lo o k o u p o n favourably. O p en you r e y e s an d se e h o w you r action s are e x ­ plicitly and im plicitly destroying the faith v este d in you b y your “h um ble’ constituents. Lastly, count o n you r hands h o w m any potential leaders an d resou rces y o u h ave lost, on ly d u e to you r political prac­ tices. O therw ise, you m ay s e e the m ost individually talented ex e cu tive in recent history, m iss its o p ­ portunity to lea v e a p ositive mark o n the McGill com m unity.

W e a p o lo g ize if SSMU v ie w s this letter as ch ea p an d under hand ed . W e o n ly h o p e that it w ill create the im petus to spark so m e f r ie n d ly d is c o u r s e about your organization. Look u p o n it as a p o sitiv e e x p e r ie n c e . B e sid es, so m e o n e had to d o it b eca u se num ber o f p e o p le h ave thought o f it.
