g Given that discussion is the backbone of the acquisition of knowledge then why is it so lack- ing here?

My main disappointment is not with faculty

but with students. YES 190!!! You who entirely refuse to speak out and "make an ass of yourself in front of your peers." Instead you would rather_clois- ‘ter yourselvss in a small room turning out highly secret documents called term papers. Is this your means of showing your intellectual and scholastic competence? Then there are others among you who believe in the theory of "God on Earth", who in His multiplicity shows His presence in the form

of college professors; and damned are those who question his knowledge or show their ignorance

by speaking in his presence. why are you here?? To learn, or to pick up a paper crutch, a college dégree. If the latter you are not only wasting our time but mine as well. I am not here only to learn from books and the tongues of intellectuals. I could succeed in this endeavour on my -own. aRather I am here to learn from you. I respect

ou and your ideas, but how can I learn if no one is ready to communicate? You are like unopened books =nd the benefits derived are equal.

LKING AND YOU

Why do you Sit in class contemplating yo r naveh Can't we learn from each other? Dr‘is it tha you feel that I am not fit to share in YOU? knowledge, or is it a sense of domination by 5"fﬁrceful and articulate student, or is it even a sense of enferiority, or is it etc., etc. I think not.; Rather I feel you have a seneevoﬁzdeepair in that you feel you are wasting your time in discussion. Instead you would like some concrete evidence of your work; a paper, so you will feel a sense of pride and achievement.. Why can't you cherish an hour of conversation in which you have been both a learner and a teacher? This, though not concrete, is still a great posSession because a discussion will become a property of your mind which you can share-with others.

MAKE UP I! You must start somewhere so - in your next class say Something, anything! when asked if you agree on a point don't Just nod your head, SAY yes or no. Then tomorrow you will be able to say a couple of words or perhaps a sentence. Then you will be able to communicate,

I will learn from you and in.turn you will learn ~something of yourselves.

always succasful' n his appeal of the decision of the financial aids off- icer.In an appeal,you must provide some sort of proof that you actually need the extra money;i.e.,you are paying rent at home or your parents are not supporting ‘your educational costs. These reasons may or may not be true,but the fact is\ it will be very diffucult

True,it is a tremenddue advantage to post graduate students but,if they are going to be Professional

'gpeople then they are going ‘to be making the salary 'required to repay the loan without having to live in "near poverty»

with regards to the Bursary Program,R.3. Le Cl- air,Financia1 Aids Officer at U.P.E.I. said that the Provincial Government has not yet commented on how the increase in Canada Stu- dent Loans will affect the Government Bursart Program.

Therafore,any celebra- tions which may have occured as a result of¢the anouncem— ent may be premature.0nly time will tell!
