Student society responsible

 

Pubbers damage Surrey campus

by Dan Hilborn
' A group of unidentified
people did extensive dam-
age to the Surrey campus
last week during a student
society sponsored pub night.
Teh student society was
told by administration that
unless immediate change s
are made to pub policy there
may be no more pub nights.
At a multi campus council
meeting Monday night
Kevin Hallgate, student
society president, told coun-

    

cil that the administration
was expecting shorter hours
and/or no hard liquor ser-
vice at future pub nights
because of the incident.
Several suggestions wer
made in that direction by
various council members

including opening pubs at
7:00 instead of 4:00 and only
serving hard bar from 8:00
onward.

A meeting was set for
Wednesday

morning

  

Helen Casher, chairman of the Douglas College board, and mayor Jim Tonn of Coquitlam cut

Volume IX Issue VII

between Hallgate and ad-
ministration to discuss the
future of pub nights on
cempus.

C ist of repairing the dam-
agei, which has yet to be
decided, will come out of
student fees because, acc-
ording to Hallgate, ‘‘The
privilege of holding pub
night is ours and so are all
of the responsibilities that
go with it.”

Council also mentioned
that problems at pub nights

the ribbon at last weeks Coquitlam campus Open House.

have so far been restricted
to the Surrey campus.

Two security guards were
hired for the night, how-
ever, both assumed the pub
was scheduled for Saturday,
not Friday, and by the time
they realized their mistake
they had no means to con-
tact the student society.

At a pub night the week
before on the New West-
minster campus, someone
stole an unknown amount of
beer tokens. Bill Carvell,

NAIT Nugget censored by council

EDMONTON[CUP]--The
student council at the Nor-
thern Alberta Institute of
Technology is telling stud-
emts what they can read.

The council has set up
publications board to control
what the student newspaper

the Nugget, prints. The
board is screening the
Nugget’s mail and

confiscating communication
with Canadian University
Press (CUP).

CUP is a cooperative of
Canadian student
newspaper, of which the
Nugget is a member.

Janet Bougie, editor of
the Nugget, was told by the
board that she will be fired
if she prints any news from
the CUP news exchange
package.

The Nugget, as a CUP
member, agrees to follow a
statement of principles

which prohibits printing any:

sexist or racist material. It
also states student papers
should be free from press-
ure by student
governments.

Last year the council for-
ced the Nugget to pring
sexist material, as a result,
the Nugget’s CUP member-

ship was jeopardized.

The council disagrees
with the CUP definition of
sexism.

‘‘What our students con-
sider sexist is not
necessarily what others con-
sider sexist,’’ said board
chairperson Linda House.

The board voted to with-
draw from CUP last June
because it felt restricted by
CUP policies, said Hause.

Bougie is opposed to
leaving CUP.
“‘The council simply

wants to exert total control
over the newspaper’’, she
said.

The council may face a
lawsuit for breach of cont-
ract with CUP and its adv-
ertising affiliate,
Youthstream.

The Nugget is obliged to
run all advertisements sent
to it by Youthstream. The
council has refused to run
all ads.

If the Nugget withdraws
from CUP, the council will
lose about $3000 in adv-
ertising revenue.

Hause said she is going:to
sell local advertising, but
Bougie says previous att-
empts to do-so have been
unsuccessful.

New Westminster
chairperson, estimated ab-
out a quarter of a coffee tin
was taken.

 

At a meeting Wednesday
morning between Kevin

Hallgate and the Surrey
management group it was
decided that future pub

nights at that campus will
begin at 7:00 and if any
further incidents occur pub
night privileges will be sus-
pended.

No Snack
Shack

expansion

By Pat Burdett

The expansion of Mucha’s
Snack Shack in Richmond is
probably not going to take
place because the restaurant
staff cannot handle the extra
work that would involve
cleaning the extra area,

Frank Zajicek, the owner
of the restaurant, said that
he had. originally planned
the move to accomodate the
extra students that use the
cafeteria at lunchtime.

“But I only have two
people working for me and
they have just enough time
to clean the tables I have
now. IfI got the other area
I would have to hire another
person.’’

He also said that there
was a problem with lost
plates and cups that would
probably get worse with
the addition of an extra
room.

Zajicek said that he has
not abandoned the idea of
expanding and might be
willing to go ahead if some
way could be worked out to
have the students clean the
area themselves.

But he doubts this would
happen. ‘‘I read in the
newspapers that the stu-
dents on the other campuses
leave their cafeterias in a
mess. The never clean up

after they eat.’’
