From Student Society Meetings—Notes

A comment — To understand where
these notes come from you must realize the
nature of a Student Society Meeting. If
you have not been to one you may think ~
that it is all business but this is not so.
The meeting of November 21st was largely
a social gathering, which was adjourned
thirty minutes before it ended.

The meeting of November 28th opened
informally, without even being called offi-
cially to order. Topics discussed:

— The P.A.C. (Program Advisory Com-
mittee) did not meet on November 28th.
—  $§.S.C. (Student Services Committee)
meeting of November 28, Paul Calder
brought up the topic of teacher evaluation.
Paul is concerned that the mistakes of
last year not be repeated. The Society was
asked if students should push for a student
evaluation of faculty? You are the Society,
Students: Should students push for a student
evaluation of faculty? Let the Society
Executive know any Wednesday at 4:00 pm.
at the Helen Pitt. Or drop a line to the ‘‘X”’.
— The “X” was discussed at the S.S.C.
meeting. Paul told us that they are concerned
with the efficiency of the “X”, which is
why the topic was brought up. Points to
ponder: Do people care what the ‘“X” is
visually? Must it be easy to read? The people
at the Scoiety meeting think that the “X”
should run more interviews and try harder
to get information from the ‘horse’s mouth’
rather than print information received
second or third hand. Gordon Moore at
this time brought up a topic that he had
discussed with one of the editors of “X”’,
M.C.L., this being to the question of whether
“X" could tape record a Student Society
Meeting. This received a mixed reaction.

— The meeting was asked what the Society
did besides run the Helen Pitt Gallery.
Some answers: They tried to organize the
monitors and find out if they wanted to
activate for a raise or for better work-
ing conditions. They discuss committee
meetings. The alternate question arose:
What could they do instead? This was in
reference to the amount of money the
Society controls. Could the Pitt be used ina
different way? As a workshop? or could
more activities be arranged for? If the Pitt
was hot open, then what? Refund Student
Society fees? Or? Gordon Moore moved
that the Society allot money to be spent on
a student publication. After a discussion of
the possible forms this could take (i.e.
anti-calendar, catalogue of student work,
discussion of questions, etc.) Bill Rummel
seconded the motion and, with the proviso
that concrete ideas be presented by the
last Wednesday in January, the motion was
passed. So, if you have any ideas... A
budget will then be set, assuming that the
idea receives approval.

— Bill Rennie told us that Tom Hudson
is organizing an Ad Hoc Committee to
consider future audio-visual arrangements
for the college. For information on this
committee and how you may in-put, contact
Bill Rennie. Please do so NOW since this
committee is meeting on Wednesday,
December 5th at 4:00 pm.

What happened with the Board of
Governors meeting?

Our meeting with three College Board
members turned out to bea surprise. At the
end of our discussion we found these
members (Colin Graham, Dawn Green and
Polly Sargent) to be down to earth people
genuinely interested in what students have
to say. They listened closely, taking notes
on the most pressing issues. They are indeed
approachable, meeting every 2nd Tuesday
of each month at the Grosvenor Hotel
(opposite Robson Square). Remember,
these people made a point about reluctant-
ly having to deal with more paperwork
than people.

So they’d be more than happy to have
a refreshing conversational lunch with
students. Ask Tom Kowall for more details.

Correction: In Vol. 2, No. 5 of the ‘X’
you were told that you would be able to
meet with members of the Academic
Council at the Helen Pitt on November 22nd.
This should have read that you could meet
some members of the Board of Governors.
These members are Polly Sargent, Dawn
Green and Colin Graham.
