——— — SS eee The DKFA is occupy- ing Douglas College ad- ministration offices this week in’anh attempt to force administration into some sort of agreement regarding the recent labour dispute. Faculty members are taking turns in this silent vigil. Ten faculty members oc- cupy the fourth floor in two hour shifts, on a rotating basis. Peer Impressions on Boycotts The administration is a joke. I’ve been through strike negotiations--- they think as long as they don’t deal wjth it, nothing will change. It’s wonderful to see students so involved and caring about the quality of education since it effects them. If students believe in it, they should get involved. There are al- ways some who won't get involved. The only way I’m going to be- come concerned is if they go on strike. My teachers are great---all my classes are going ahead right now. It’s stupid, griping about the quality of education and missing classes. Faculty are employees and employees don’t say who gets hired.This is a political issue and the student society should stay out of it. I don’t know anything about it, so I can’t say anything. It’s: important that students get involved without missing their clas- ses. I do think that it’s good to sup- port faculty this way. I agree with students getting in- volved and trying to prevent the strike so that no one will lose out. They're trying to take so much away from us as students and our teachers. Less qualified teachers means less qualified students---it just makes: it harder to get a job. We miss one class, we can make itup. This way we are in control of the strike and we can go to class any time we want to. But if the faculty strikes we have no control. We miss two weeks, we miss the whole semester.
