Parking Appeals and Enrolment Highlight Board Meeting

In an otherwise pedestrian, work-a- day meeting of our Governors on 1 March, two topics discussed or re- ported on are of some interest to the University community as a whole. The first, a temporary change in parking appeal procedures, drew noted op- position from Floyd Hodgins and other student members. The second, a report from the President, described the ebb and flow of registration in several Faculties.

“I appeal unto ...”

It was recommended to and

approved by the Board that there be a temporary suspension of the tortuous and expensive appeal procedures contained in the most recent incarnation (May 1984) of the Traffic and Parking Regulations. The replacement of a Parking Appeals Committee and its secretarial support, over half a full-time position (the incumbent is retiring), by a person designated as a “Parking Appeals Officer,” it was believed, would greatly streamline the process and save a fair bit of money. Students’ Union President Hodgins objected even to a temporary suspension of the “democratic” principle of a Parking Appeals Committee, citing the damage done by “temporary” dictators in the recent past. That argument was not persuasive.

In essence, when reading Sections 6.3 & 4 of the Regulations, appellants should substitute “Parking Appeals Officer” for “Parking Appeals Committee.” While that person’s decision will be binding, the official may use discretion in passing an appeal to a final arbiter, the Associate Vice-President (Facilities and Services). There is no plan for a satellite hook-up to University Hall at this time.

University of Alberta

“Significantly down...significantly up”

The President reported on student enrolment. Asking who could have predicted the events of recent years, Dr. Horowitz noted that new first- year enrolments are “significantly down” from last year and that, as expected, registrations in upper years and graduate programs have increased markedly. The cumulative increase, as of 14 February, is in the range of 0.65 percent.

However slight the increase, coming on top of huge increases in recent years, the effects are still quite noticeable. Several examples were given: The Faculty of Physical Edu- cation and Recreation has experienced a 9 percent increase in full-time enrolment and a 20 percent increase in the number of its part-time stu- dents. There are 7.5 percent more graduate students this year than last. Rehabilitation Medicine is up 5.5 per- cent; Agriculture and Forestry has 4 percent more full-time students. Nurs-

ing, on the other hand, has experi- enced a 13 percent decrease in its full- time enrolment concomitant with a 40 percent increase in part-time regis- trations. The Faculties of Education and Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences have sustained 4 percent and 3.5 percent drops.

The President also noted in his re- port that six McCalla Professorships have been allocated to scholars for the next academic year. Details of these will appear in this bulletin in due course.)

Faculty of Extension Laying on Summer

Youth University.

Do you know someone who is curious, searching and enthusiastic; who ques- tions life, space, the world and their place in it...and is entering grades 9 to 12?

Young people who fit that de- scription could find the program being put together by the Summer Youth University (SYU), Faculty of Exten- sion, the perfect way to spend two weeks in July.

SYU is a new program whose pur- pose is to introduce young people to our University by bringing them on campus and showing them some of the interesting things that go on at a uni- versity.

There will be two two-week ses- sions, 2 to 12 July, and 15 to 26 July. The topics covered will be different in each session and will offered by a va- riety of Faculties and departments. Subject areas are in the process of be- ing settled. Computing science could be one, foods and nutrition another.

Music, geology and zoology are on the list too, as are geography and family studies.

The daily schedule, from 9 a.m. to 4,30 p.m., will be divided into four one-hour sessions, for tours, field trips, labs (including lab experiments, de- monstrations and visits to research labs), lectures, and “invited talks” from faculty.

These will be followed by two hours of recreational sport and fitness train- ing —with the emphasis on recreation rather than on training—in the U of A summer sports camp.

Registration opens on 1 April (when the finalized program will be avail- able) and closes on 3 June. Fee for a session is $135. Each class is limited to 15 and applications will be accepted on a first come-first served basis.

..and Summer Math

A unique, two-week session in mathe- matics is being presented in July by the Mathematics Department and the Summer Youth University, Faculty of Extension.

Intended for young people entering grades 10, 11 and 12, this is a real “math immersion” program. For two weeks, students will be taken out of our everyday world into the chal- lenging world of “measurement”—the basic tool of all science, and the foun- dation of electronics and computing and space sciences.

Students fascinated by that world of

Edward Mozejko, Norman Yates Awarded McCalla Professorships

Edward Mozejko’s recent appointment to a McCalla Professorship gives him a golden opportunity to complete the explorations into the theory and prac- tice of Russian literary Constructivism that have occupied him for the last six years.

Beginning as a modern art move- ment in Russia in the ’20s, and soon spreading to the literary field, con- structivism as a whole has left an in- delible mark on the 20th century, says Dr. Mozejko. It has shaped our 20th century point of view about art and the application of art in life, in indus- try and in technological processes.

Indeed, the relationship between art and technology was of paramount im- portance to constructivists, who wanted to “construct” things that were rational and applicable and so suitable for their intended purposes that a ma- chine or tool, for instance, would be a thing of beauty in itself. Thus, “art” as something separate and apart from practical life would disappear.

Literary constructivists aimed at presenting events and characters so vividly as to be virtually tangible through use of only the most appropri- ate, most applicable (and, if neces- sary, new and invented) words. They

experimented with language in order to have immediate impact on the reader’s imagination—an impact that was to come from concise, direct presentation of the content, in a vo-

* cabulary precisely suitable to the

scene described.

Dr. Mozejko’s study will concen- trate on three major areas: an analysis of the relationship between visual and literary constructivism; an analysis of constructivist literary theory within a broad cultural context; and an ana- lysis of major constructivist writers, which would aim at presenting their writings as a literary movement. The purpose of the latter part of the project is to establish whether there does, in fact, exist a distinct literary style or poetic language which could be called constructivist.

A graduate of the University of Cracow in 1956, Dr. Mozejko obtained his MA and PhD, both in Slavic Lit- eratures, from his alma mater. Appointed to our University in 1968, he now holds a joint appointment as Professor of Slavic Languages and of Comparative Literature. Research grants Dr. Mozejko has received in- clude two from the West German Al- exander von Humboldt Stiftung and one from the Canada Council for re- search on Russian Literary Construc- tivism. Author and translator of a

number of books and numerous arti- cles and reviews, Dr. Mozejko is most recently editor of the book Vasilil Pav- lovich Aksenov: A Writer in Quest of Himself, which will be published this summer.

Norman Yates

The Studio Theatre logo, the mural on the exterior of the Civil/Electrical Engineering Building, the mural in Edmonton’s Centennial Library, and the design of the Chancellor’s gown and the City of Edmonton flag are among the accomplishments of Nor- man Yates. Now, the Professor of Art and Design is bringing his creative en- ergies to bear on “Landspace and the Artist in Motion.” In his paintings and drawings of the last decade, Professor Yates has experimented with multiple surfaces as a vehicle to express spatial relationships. These have concentrated on aspects of visual time, color, focus, figuration extension and the part in relation to the whole.

“As welt as projecting the artist’s response to the actual space of the prairies,” Professor Yates stated in his McCalla Professorship application, “the structure was intended to intrin- sically suggest space as a formal ele- ment of major importance.”

U of T Historian to Lecture

Edward Shorter of the University of Toronto’s Department of History will be the guest of Sociology for several days beginning 20 March.

Dr. Shorter, who has lectured ex- tensively, will present a public lecture at 7:30 p.m. on 20 March in the Tory Lecture Theatre 2. His topic is “The Fall and Rise of Female Bonding in Western Society.” Earlier that day (3 p.m.), he will discuss “The European Fertility Decline in Historical Per- spective” (L-4 Humanities Centre). A third lecture, “Towards a History of the Psychoneuroses ‘Hysteria’ Over the Last Hundred Years,” will take place at noon in 165 Education South, 21 March.

Dr. Shorter obtained his under-

graduate degree from Wabash Col- lege, Indiana, and his post-graduate degrees from Harvard. He joined the History faculty at the University of Toronto in 1967 and was promoted to the rank of Professor in 1977. He was a visiting professor at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton Univer- sity and the Connaught Senior Fellow, U of T, 1981-82.

Dr. Shorter’s books have been translated in French, German and Italian and will soon appear in Dutch and Japanese. His titles include The Historian and the Computer: A Prac- tical Guide, The Making of the Mod- ern Family and A History of Women's Bodies. Dr. Shorter has published ar- ticles in more than 20 journals.0

To illustrate, two rectangular sur- faces which permitted a varying time response to such factors as different locations, seasons, or light during the production, when physically joined to- gether horizontally, equated with the concept of an horizon line; the objec- tive physical join, a surface reality, became an abstraction for an infinity in the final painting.

Professor Yates wants to keep a sense of the important gains made in the understanding of the art of paint- ing during contemporary times and sustain a direct connection with nature. “The primer of this connection between painting and the artist’s ex- perience in nature is the energy related to space,” he says.

Professor Yates has explored the use of other media such as cine- matography, video and stage design but has decided, “for reasons of artis- tic control and finances,” to keep at the exploration of continuous relational change through the medium of painting.

As a McCalla Professor, Norman Yates will attempt to develop further the experience of movement through a variety of environments. Another ob- jective concerns the development of expressions on different modular structures to determine the effect upon his perceptual experience of the environment in relation to movement. He also intends to explore within the spatial context the intuitively based grid, a process in which the structure is permitted to be more spontaneously adjusted in relation to expressive need.

A native of Calgary, Norman Yates received his early education in Regina and his art education at the Ontario College of Art, attaining first class honors in 1950.

Canada Council Senior Arts Awards were bestowed upon him in 1967 and 1975 and he received the City of Edmonton Performing and Creative Arts Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Visual Arts in 1972.

Professor Yates was awarded the 25th Anniversary Queen’s Medal in 1977, an Alberta Achievement Award for Excellence in Art in 1979 and a University of Alberta Service Award in 1980.0

President’s Interim Advisory Committee on Women’s Issues Invites Participation of Campus Citizenry

Last November, President Horowitz moved to create a means by which “matters which concern women at the University of Alberta, and which are not being addressed by specific bod- ies” might seek definition, discussion, and eventual resolution. This is the President’s Interim Advisory Commit- tee on Women’s Issues, and its pur- pose is to encourage all members of the University community to consider ways in which the University can more satisfactorily respond to the needs and aspirations of women, whether students, research associates, librarians, teaching faculty, adminis- trative officers, or non-academic staff.

In 1982-83, a historic development occurred when for the first time at this University, women comprised 52 percent of undergraduate students, a figure exactly on a par with the pro- portion of females in the general pop- ulation. Moreover, changes in Univer- sity regulations and services over the past decade have resulted in much im- proved access to the University of women students. Day care centres at Michener Park and HUB and the non-credit Women’s Program in the Faculty of Extension have had major impacts; the President’s Advisory Committee on Sexual Harassment, and Women in Science, Engineering, Scholarship and Technology (WIS- EST) are targeting other problem ar- eas, as is the Committee on Women’s Studies appointed recently by Vice- President Meekison.

However, other concerns remain. Finding affordable, good-quality day care is still a major difficulty for many parents on campus, a situation not improved by the necessity to close the centre at the University Hospital. Nor have all the problems identified by the Senate Task Force on the Sta- tus of Women a decade ago been sat- isfactorily addressed. By and large, the situation of non-academic women is most urgently in need of ameliora-~ tive action: a report prepared for the Board of Governors in 1982 shows that with very few exceptions, women are clustered in a small range of lower-paying jobs, and in all occupation groups the average salary of females is lower than that of males.

Few non-academic women staff reach supervisory positions; however, women comprise 60 percent of NASA mem- bers. But even among academic women, questions arise about oppor- tunities to enter traditionally male fields, to advance through the profes- sional and APO ranks, and to partici- pate effectively in decision-making bodies, problems not eased by their relatively small numbers (at present, around 16 percent of teaching and re- search faculty, up from 15 percent in 1975).

Other issues that have been identi- fied so far involve the spouses— usually female—of international stu- dents on campus; the implications of full-time and residency requirements for women in honors and graduate programs; the impact of shrinking budgets on small Faculties, where women students predominate; and the extent to which the traditional aca- demic career path, which tends to at- tach a certain “timetable” to academic success, also reflects men’s relatively greater freedom from domestic and child-raising responsibilities (an area, however, in which changes are begin- ning to appear). Could teaching appointments and support positions alike allow greater variations of pat- terns, a boon to parents of both sexes in the childbearing years? Should there be monitoring of applications and appointments in departments and job-categories where women are few or non-existent? How do we imple- ment employment equity in a manner consistent with the ideals and aca- demic purposes of the University?

Those with views on these or on any other questions that fall within the new committee’s purview are encour- aged to forward them to any member of the committee, whose names are listed below. The governing criterion of what constitutes a “women’s issue” is that it involve regulations, practices, services, or expectations that impede full and equal participation by women in the benefits and opportunities of the University, or (put differently), that affect women on campus dis- proportionately and disadvantageously relative to men. This latter formu- lation, widely known as the “disparate

impact” principle, has been the foun- dation of equal opportunity studies in Canada for some years, most recently in the royal commission enquiry in Ontario into employment equity for women and minorities (the Abella Re- port).

Chairing the President’s Interim Advisory Committee on Women’s Is- sues is Susan Jackel, Assistant Pro- fessor of Canadian Studies. Enquiries, suggestions, expostulations, and infor- mation bearing on the committee’s purposes may be directed to her at Arts 306 (telephone 432-5086). Other members of the committee also wel- come your views and suggestions; they

are Betty Andrews, APO in Ento- mology; Rita Shillabeer, sessional lec- turer in Mathematics; Leslie LaFleur, Herbert T. Coutts Library in Edu- cation; Fred Morrison, Family Studies (especially on day care facilities); Su- san Melnychuk, Women’s Centre, Student’s Union; and Annette Rich- ardson, a graduate student in the De- partment of History. After 1 April, Mildred Richardson, Circulation Su- pervisor of the Coutts Library, will join the committee to help resolve is- sues affecting non-academic women. Giving secretarial assistance to the committee is Joan Booth, clerk- administrator of Canadian Studies.0

Campus Recreation to Host Family Fun Sunday

On Sunday, 17 March, the Campus Recreation wing of the Department of Athletic Services will be the venue for two hours of family fun. The activ- ities, which will take place in some of Canada’s finest facilities—the Univer- siade Pavilion and the West Pool—are for all University faculty, staff and students and their children.

Family Fun Sunday will start at 2 p.m. in the Pavilion. There will be an hour of cooperative games, a tug-of- war, relays, badminton and games of “low organization.” At 3 p.m., the scene will shift to the West Pool where a family recreational swim will be held. :

At 3:45 p.m., donuts, cookies and juice will be served.

There will be no charge whatsoever for Family Fun Sunday.

If you intend to attend, call the Campus Recreation Administration Office (432-2555) by 4 p.m. on 15 March and indicate how many people (adults and children) will be in your party. Please state the ages of your children.

The Pandas gymnastics team did itself (and the University) proud by winning the national team title in Vancouver earlier this month. And, performing in front of home crowds, the Golden Bears basketball and hockey teams captured the respective CWUAA crowns. Long may they reign. Individually, Sandy O’Brien, Panda gymnastics, is the CIAU Coach of the Year, and Phil Spate and Mike Payette (wrestling), Mary Jo Clark (swimming), Heidi Ross (gymnastics), and Mary Burzminski, Kirsten Madsen, Patti Lehnhoff and Birgit Otto (track and field) are CLIAU All-Canadians. We remind you that, to see the NAIT Ookpiks get theirs at the hands of the Golden Bears, be at Northlands Coliseum 19 March at 7:30 p.m. All proceeds will go to Ronald McDonald House.

‘To Sleep, Perchance to Dream’

David Foulkes, Professor of Psychiatry and Psychology at the Georgia Mental Health Institute, Emory University, will be on-campus from 18 to 29 March as an Endow- ment Fund for the Future Dis- tinguished Visiting Professor. Professor Foulkes is an eminent dream researcher whose work has con- tributed significantly to clarification of the relationship between sleep phy- siology and dream content, the relationship between children’s cog- nitive development and dream struc- ture, and, most recently, the relationship between cognitive func- tion and dream formation. During his stay at the University, he will be asso-

Evacutrac Aids Incapacitated

Disabled or incapacitated people who have difficulty getting up and down stairs in times of an emergency can now rely on an Evacutrac. The recliner-like chair, purchased recently by the Department of Occupational Health and Safety, will be on perma- nent loan to Campus Security whose personnel will carry it in their emergency vehicle.

Equipped with 12 wheels, the chair, manoeuvred by one operator, can ascend and descend stairs with min- imum effort. The seat is made of a strong nylon fabric that has velcro fas-

teners to secure the occupant’s waist and feet. Weighing a total of 57 pounds, it can carry up to 250 pounds, and doesn’t tip. A brake-like lever powers the chair, and when released, stops it dead.

Evacutrac conveniently folds up and can be put into a carrying case which can be slung from the shoulder. It is currently being sold in Edmonton by Eco Medical. Evacutrac was originally designed by a German firm which specializes in ski lifts. The chair retails for $1,400.00

“The Chair” recognizes Cindy Ferris, Occupational Health and Safety secre- tary, Ray Richards, Fire Protection Officer, and Stan Kobylko, Fire Safety technician.
