case in

CUSO is an independent, non- profit Canadian organization, which enables qualified personnell to work in more than forty developing nat—. ions, under the plans and priorities of those countries’ governments and agencies.

CUSO receives a substantial part of its finances from the federal gov-

ernment, the balance coming frOm various organizations, ind1v1duals -

V and all Canadians who participate in the ‘Miles for Millions’ marches.

CUSO began when Keith Spicer, in early 1960, became interested in becoming more community orien- ted.

Since its development, thousands of Canadians have used CUSO as a means of demonstrating their desire to become involved in‘international development.

The key to CUSO planning lies in it’s field staff who maintain the vital link between the host country employers, CUSO personnel, and the Ottawa secretariat. They are directly responsible for the admin-

istration of the CUSO programme overseas and work in close co—oper— ation with government departments and agencies.

' Assignments usually are for two years but from past experience, it has been found that the better part

of the first year is spent in learning 'how the people with whom the vol-.

unteer is working live, what their culture is, and also the language.

More recently, there has been under consideration the possibility of ex- tending the term to three years with

have overheard many refer to the cemmittee as such.

The Education Committee is not a closely-knit clique. This com- mittee is open to all students. If any student does not like the way the committee handles it’s budget, he or she need only to join the com- mittee and offer other alternatives. It isvery easy to join. All one has

Assigned in response to specific request, they represent a wide var- iety of professional and technical skills, including teachers, doctors, engineers, architects, journalists and many others.

There is a need for an organization such as CUSO. Two—thirds of the

_ world’s people live under social and

economic conditions far below the standards taken for granted in in- dustrialized nations. The solution to closing this gap lies in both the developed and developing nations.

The transfer of technical skills is just as essential as money and mat- erials in aiding a developing country to self—sufficiency.

To belong to the RBI. CUSO club, it is not necessary that you wish to be a volunteer working in a

developing nation. An interest in helping others is all that is required.

People are needed in the CUSO club to help make more and more people aware ofit’s existence and aims.

There will be general information at meetings held periodically during the year, with informal question - answer periods. Anyone who is in- terested in finding out more about CUSO is welcome.

to do is attend a meeting.

Last year the Education Com-

' mittee tried to do too much too

fast. It was involved with the Ten- ant’s Union, Farmer’s Union and other outside movements. The committee also did some consider- able work within the University.

In a recent interview, chairman, gMartin Kenny said, ‘This year the 'eommittee is going to direct most of it’s energy within the University. The purpose for this is to get more participation from the general stu— dent body. The committee wants to get all the students involved in the issues that affect them. The committee would like to interrelate the problems of the University com-

election

Once upon a time there was a stu—

‘dent. His name was Rothgar Billigar .(which was one point against him

right from the beginning). Let’s just call him Gar.

Well, Gar finished high school in an average kind of way and joum- eyed far to attain scholarly attri- butes at U.P.E.l.. U.P.E.I. is just a little school where everybody talks to everyone else and every student is really uptight about how things are run. Everyone thinks their school has potential and they all proclaim proudly ‘I’m from.U.P.E.I.

‘ ’ One day as Gar walked to the new

building he felt excitement in the air. The whole campus was buzzing. '

ific long-range projects. mittee will be doing a great deal of research into Co—op Student Housing and the outrageous cost of Student Housing at present. The other pro- ject will be research into the ridic—

Kenny also mentioned two spec- The com-

ulous prices of books and the feas- abilities of a Co—op book store and a seCond-hand book store.

Kenny also stated the committee was going to show films and bring in outside speakers. ‘This should give us a better scope on pertinent Canadian issues.’

Notices of Committee meetings are posted in the Coffee Shop. If you have any complaints attend a meeting - otherwise shut‘up.

fantacy

bzzzzz. Gar turned to one of his friendly, fellow students to find out what was happening. What else could it be?

You are right! It was Student Election time at U.P.E.I.. Now was the time for Gar to break through. He would run for the board of gov- ernors, maybe even for the senate. Boy, was he excited! The Billigar ,faeulty coalition would go down in history.

And here it is never, never time later. Did you know you could be .there with the top dogs presenting your ideas? If you do, letvus know you do. From the looks of things we’d never believe it!!! '
