OAD: er 8 REVOLT ON BUR NABY MOUNTAIN Simon Fraser students fight for democracy By KATHY RUSH, SFU Student Simon Fraser University last weekend became the first university in Canada ever to be censured by the Canadian Association of University Teachers. Students and faculty alike are gravely concerned that this action may prevent recruitment of new faculty and may leave a black mark on the degrees of students graduating from SFU. It is clear that unless changes in administration are made soon the university will be formally blacklisted and will become worthless as an educational institution. The censure occurred several months after a CAUT committee Visited Simon Fraser at the facuity’s request to study the problem of faculty-administration relations and to make recommendations. The censure was aimed at the Board of Governors for interference in academic affairs, at the President for failure to carry out appropriate administration, and at both the President and the Board for failure to take steps to remedy the situation described in the investigating committee’s report. After hearing about the censure, the faculty voted to ask for the resignation of President McTaggart- Cowan. The Board then gave the President an extended leave of absence. This is not good enough. Merely getting rid of the President will not begin to solve SFU’s problems. The Board of Governors themselves were also censured. What is needed is a complete restructuring of the university so that students and faculty have main control over their own affairs ‘and OBITUARY Mary Honcharuk A warm tribute was paid to the long years of hard, dedicated work of Mary Honcharuk at a memorial service in Victoria, May 27 by John Chitrencky of the AUUC and B.C. Communist leader Nigel Morgan. Born in the Ukraine in 1909, Mary immigrated to Canada in 1930. She lived in Le Pas, Manitoba where she married Mike Honcharuk in 1941, moving to Victoria that same year. She joined the ULFTA in 1933 and the Communist Party in 1934. Over the last 35 years she devoted herself untiringly to the progressive movement. The PT extends sympathy to her family and particularly husband Mike and son Eddy.

This may require a change in the external structure as well as the internal structure of the university, namely a revision of the ancient Universities Act of 1963. The students have drawn up a list of eight minimum demands: @ Abolition of the Board of Governors as presently structured, to be totally restructured giving the students and faculty majority control. DR. GORDON SHRUM, Chancellor of Simon Fraser University, confidante of Premier Bennett and head of B.C. Hydro, dominates the Board of Governors at SFU. Shrum and other appointees of the Board are there to see that SFU is run in the interests of the big business establishment. This is the underlying source of trouble in SFU. The demand of the students fora democratic Board representative of diverse sections of the community strikes at the heart of the problem. Restructuring of the senate so that it is totally representative of the students and faculty only. This would then become the major decision- making and legislative body of the university. ® Abolition of the office of the president and chancellor as presently constituted and re-. establishment of such offices as necessary on an elective basis by students, faculty and staff. @ Democratization of the department structure along the lines of the CAUT report, instituting the principle of rotating chairmen with term appointments. ® All administrative officials appointed will be ratified by senate as restructured. ® Automatic due process in matters of hiring and firing must be’ instituted immediately. This involves academic tenure, open hearings: on alleged inconsistencies and infractions of person’s rights, ele: ® Public representation of the Board of Governors to be appointed either by community organizations such as the B.C. Federation of Labor, B.C. Federation of Teachers, B.C. Council of Churches, Canadian Council of Arts and Science and or by the public. ® The final demand called for the striking of a committee composed equally of students and faculty, chaired by a CAUT appointee, to supervise the implementation of these reforms. At a meeting of students Monday they voted overwhelmingly to demand the resignation of the Board of Governors headed by Dr. Gordon Shrum, Chancellor of the university. The vote was 1,361 yes and 289 no. This vote shows that students are aware, as are the faculty, that the seat..af the trouble at SFU is the conservative and reactionary Board of Governors appointed by the Social Credit government. Perhaps the CAUT censure was just the spark that was needed to get some action going to change the feudal, top-heavy structure which plagues most of our universities, although not so obviously as in Simon Fraser.
