     at Sunday's council meeting the issue of political 
     
     stance was again tackled. the student union was asked 
     
     to take a stand on El Salvador, but it was pointed 
     
     out that council had no mandate to make statements on 
     
    
   
   
    
     world issues on behalf of the 
     
    
   
   
    
     students . the question

     however, the student union will not deal with political

     Dear Editor 
     
    

    
     Everyone realized the 
     
     exam season is almost upon 
     
     us, but I wonder if our 
     
     university administration 
     
     realizes that another 
     
     season is upon us. The 
     
     most important season in 
     
     the Christian world, the 
     
     Easter Season, is here. 
     
     With the importance of 
     
     this event, I feel the 
     
     exam schedule should have 
     
     been better composed. 
     
     Although the university 
     
     chapel is well staffed 
     
    
   
   
    
     . Apoihei’ic 
     
     Dear Editor: 
     
    
   
   
    
     This is presently my 
     
     5th year at this university 
     
     and never have I seen such 
     
     poor response in students 
     
     unwilling to get involved 
     
     with the Student Union. 
     
     It's a shame that the two 
     
     most important positions 
     
     on council be elected by 
     
     aCclamation: the President 
     
     and Treasurer for those of 
     
     you that don't know or care. 
     
    

    
     Personally, I feel 
     
     that they will do an 
     
     adequate job, but should 
     
     they fail, you have no One 
     
     but yourselves to blame. 
     
    

    
     I for one would not like 
     
     to see this happen. 
     
    
   
   
    
     and run, nothing short 
     
    

    
     of one's community and 
     
     Family together at 
     
     Easter is desired. With 
     
     an exam on April 18th, 
     
     only a few of the resident 
     
     students will be able 
     
    

    
     to attend Easter worship 
     
     with their families. One 
     
     extra day would not have 
     
     made that much difference 
     
     to the exams, but think * 
     
     of the differencein 
     
    

    
     one Easter celebration.

     Prerogative 
     
    
   
   
    
     because both the union and 
     
     the university have a great 
     
     deal of potential if you as 
     
     students take advantage ' 
     
     of what you have to work 
     
     If apathy on this campus 
     
    

    
     continues to grow, the student 
     
     body here is going to suffer. 
     
     The union does more for 
     
     you than provide a Main 
     
     Event once every two weeks, 
     
     but if you're willing to 
     
     stand by and watch tuition, 
     
     residence and other fees 
     
     rise, then that's your 
     
     prerogative

     to Ontdo each other in,   as. 
     
    
   
   
    
     they spend three-quarters of  hour quibbling Over pay, 
     
     while the disappearance of $425 in the first week of 
     
     classes is breezed over in three minutes. the art of 
     
     listening seems lost as soon as one enters the Barn 
     
    

    
     at 6:30 on Sunday evenings. concentration upon a thought 
     
     to be presented excludes the current train of speech so 
     
     that one perscn often repeats words just uttered by 
     
     another body. one really begins to ponder the maturity 
     
    
   
   
    
     of people who spend three hours observing the antics 
     
    
   
   
    
     of a mouse trapped in a support post. 
     
    

    
     as for the executive itself - well, two out of three 
     
     ‘ain't bad. to the untrained eye, "King" Brown and 
     
     "Tight Wad" McAleer were the only mo bodies in activity 
     
     down there in the Barn. Neil MacKenzie can owe thanks ‘ 
     
     to David Brown and the Engineers for getting CIMN into 
     
     the Library lounge and other obscure spots on campus. 
     
     Sue Parlee seems to have quite adequately fulfilled 
     
     the role of a socialite, but Imfortunately she was not 
     
     elected for that job. it is a sad thought when one con— 
     
     siders that the vice-:president spends more time at 
     
     Gentleman Jim's than she does in the Barn. 
     
    

    
     despite balancing six courses and the job of treasurer, 
     
     Johnny T. W. seems to have survived the year. granted, 
     
     next year's treasurer will have more work to do as a 
     
     result of the student union restructuring, he will still 
     
     have a hard time filling Johnny's shoes. ' 
     
    

    
     and as for Bram, well what can one say that hasn't 
     
     already been said? you may bitch and complain all you 
     
     want, but that guy has spent more time investigating 
     
     the administration and faculty of this university than 
     
     has any student of recent years. it is a damn shame that 
     
     he will not be back next year to manifest some action. 
     
     at least he has added some character to this place and 
     
     boosted our image in other universities across the 
     
    
   
   
    
     country.
