    BellAcclaimedBut Speaks

    Student Counci l for 1965-66 wi l l bestart ing of f wi th every thing goingfor them. We wi l l have a new con-st i tut ion, we wi l l have new blood onStudent Counci l and we wi l l have alarger s tudent body. The people whoare elected to Student Counci l shouldbe people w i th intel l igence an dini t iat ive. There is no longer anyplace on our Student Counci l for thepet t iness and apathy that has markedits action or lack of action in thepast . Hav ing said this much, w hatcan I say for myself? I have bee nacc laimed and there is real ly not muchI can do about that fact. This is notto say that I take my responsibilityas a member of Student Counci llightly. On the contrary, it is a re-spons ibility that carries with it agreat chal lenge and surely anyone whois wi l l ing to accept a nominat ion isindicat ing his wi l l ingness and even(we should hope) his eagerness toaccept that chal lenge.

    I t is my hope that Student Counci lwi l l m ake good use of hinds ight(weve made the mis takes-we haveonly to learn f rom them), and makea determined ef fort at fores ight inplanning and organizat ion.

    One thing that I feel wi l l contributegreat ly to this is a more uni f iedStudent Counci l . I have representedRenison Col lege o n two prev iouscounci ls and in that t ime I have ha dthe overwhelming impress ion that inspi te of the interest shown on my partI was, in fact, a n outsider. For thatmat ter , Student Counci l has neverbeen a very cohes ive body. Admit ted-ly , Student Counci l is the place fordeba te and constructive criticism ofproposals brought before i t, butcertainly a great d eal more can beaccompl ished by a co-operat ive ef fortat good planning and organizat ionand less dissent ion over personal andfactional interests.

    Bear, in to the classroom, i t could restore the professor-student re lationshipthat is now disappearing; in many universi t ies. Having studied how mosteffectively to use te levision on campus, a committee of universi ty academicsand administrators set up by Ontar io universit ies has agreed that on-campustelevision is an advantage which has been proved by several Canad ian uni -versities. The University of Toronto, McMaste r, McG ill ,and the Universityof Water loo are among those al ready using TV. Scarborough Col lege, now underconstruction, wi l l be the f i rst Canadian universi ty bui l t to uti l ize te levisionteachihg methods.

    The te levision committee, under the chai rmanship of Dr. D. C. Wi l l iams,vi t ie-president of the Scarborough and Erindale campuses of the U. of T ., ispreparing a report to guide universit ies using te levision. .A critical shortage of university l.ecturers was forecast by the com mitteeof Ontar io universi ty presidents in a 1962 report to the provincia l government,

    It is hoped that te levision wi l l help face th is shortage by, in effect, br ingingthe lecture back to the smal l group of students. Students say they feel closerto the professor watching h im on a large screen tha n si tt ing in a huge lecture_hal l star ing at h im from a distance. T imetable clashes could easi ly be avertedby viewing video-taped lectures and students would benefi t by having accessto the best lecturers. ,* * *;

    In an unprecedented move, the Senate of the University of Victor ia hasapproved student representation in the administration of the, University. Inan announcement last month, the Senate stated that i t had approved a reso-lution permi tt ing any administration committee to appoint student repre-sentatives. Student Union President Ol iv ia Barr called the move incredib le. Shepraised i t as a great step forward in g iving students a greater voice in theuniversity s future p lans and a greater interest in i ts administration. RegistrarR; J. Jeffe ls echoed these words wi th h is statement that the S en&es decisionwas in recogni t ion of the universi ty as a communi ty of-scholars and teachersworking together.. Al ready plans [have been announced to appoint studentsto three administration committees: the C?mpus Planti ing- Comm ittee, theAthletics Faci l i t ies, and the Centennia l Program Comm ittee.

    answer to th is question. Of 1163 students asked to ansyer questionnai res forthe survey at UBC , only 100 replies we re received by the survey director.At the Edmonto n campus of the Univers,i ty of Alberta, there were only 284repl ies from the 794 students asked.

A major problem is posed inOntar io by the student who appl ies to several universit ies, is accepted atseveral, and yet registers at only one universi ty wi thout noti fy ing the others.This results in empty p laces at universities. The central adm issions system,proposed by Universi ty of Water loo registrar A. P. Gordon, w ould a l lowstudents refused by one universi ty to be noti f ied of vacancies on other campuses.

    Sheikh Abu Zahru, a professor of Is lamic law at Cai ro Universi ty, is amember of a group advocating new interpretations of the Koran in the Islamicrel ig ion. One of the changes th is group is urg ing is an end to polygamy. Godorig inal ly permi tted polygamy to, help Moslems solve many problems thatcould not be solved otherwise, said Abu Zahru. But a Moslem was requi redto have strong reasons to commit polygamy. Lust is not a suff ic ient reason.
