     HALIFAX (CUP) - Stu- 
     
     dent council- 
     
     lors at Mount Saint Vincent 
     
     University forced the cancel- 
     
     lation of a women-only dance 
     
     scheduled to celebrate Inter- 
     
    

    
     _ national Women’s Day. 
     
    

    
     “We were told by the 
     
     student union we could not 
     
     have a women-only pub night 
     
     because it was reverse dis- 
     
     crimination,” said the chair 
     
     of the university’s ad hoc 
     
     IWD organizing committee, 
     
     Tarel Quandt. 
     
    

    
     But student council pres- 
     
     ident Jan Thomas denies 
     
     that was the reasoning be- 
     
     hind the decision. She 
     
     said a policy that council- 
     
     sponsored events be open to 
     
     all students convinced coun- 
     
     cillors to unanimously insist 
     
    
   
   
    
     the party include men. The 
     
    
   
   
    
     committee refused. 
     
    

    
     Thomas said council is 
     
     replacing the [WD dance 
     
     with its own pub night open 
     
     to all. Only 15 per cent of

     the Mount’s 4100 students 
     
     are male. 
     
     “Unfortunately, 
     
    

    
     sadly and not surprisingly, 
     
     women celebrating by them- 
     
     selves and for themselves is a 
     
     serious affront and threat to 
     
     the patriarchal values which, 
     
     contrary to popular delusion, 
     
     remain staunchly in a posi- 
     
     tion of supreme power in our 
     
     society,” stated a letter re- 
     
     leased by the committee. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Thomas said _ Interna- 
     
    
   
   
    
     tional Woman’s Day means 
     
     %a time to celebrate women... 
     
    
   
   
    
     a time of sharing with every- 
     
     one”. 
     
    
   
   
    
     The committee cancelled 
     
     a rally planned for March 
     
     8th, because to “celebrate a 
     
     rally would be a real farce be- 
     
     cause of the oppressive con- 
     
     dition that the council was 
     
    
   
   
    
     creating for us.’ 
     
    
   
   
    
     The rally will be replaced 
     
     with a debate between two 
     
     lawyers on the legal aspects 
     
     of women-only events. .
