September 23, 1970 Students demand bus Approximately 45 Monty Hall Resident stud- ents turned out Thursday evening for ameeting with Jim Ross, President of the Student Union. to discuss their demand for a bus Service between their residence and the Malpeque Campus The 85 students living at Montgomery Hall ‘ stated in a petition to the Student Union that they were having difficulties travelling to and from the Malpeque Campus.Gerard Gallant speak- ing for the students said “Jim Griffith led us to believe there would be some sort of transport- ation provided if we lived at Montgomery Hall.” This was backed up by Vince Angelien who said “when we were drawing lots for residences Griffith said transportation would be provided. Ross stated that there must be some misunder- standing between Griffith, Director of Student Services and the student” Ross said “Griffith to- day denied having made such a comment, but said he would attempt to his utmost to provide transportation.” Ross further stated that the University had no money alloted for such a service, but that it would pay some of the cost. A bus then could be provided if resident students were willing to pay 10-15 cents per trip. The students present at the meeting felt that since they were classed as resident student in a on campus residence, it would be unfair to make them, pay 30—40 dollars a year more for trans- portation. It was pointed out that they would ' then have to pay more than someone living in Bernadine Hall who is paying the same for “on- campus” residence. Ross asked if the students at the meeting were willing to suggest an acceptable compromise. Al— though altematiVes such as the student and or the University buying a Bus and setting up car pools were discussed the members present agreed unanamously that the University through Griffith had committed itself to providing transportation and that this would remain their demand. Ross said that he would take the issue before the Administration again and would report to Gerard Galland on the response of the Adminis- tration. MCGill plans austerity MONTGOMERY HALL, SHOWN ABOVE, IS LISTED IN THE UNIVERSITY CALEN—— DAR AS AN “ONCAMPUS” RESIDENCE, EVEN THOUGH IT IS LOCATED TWO MIL- ES ACROSS TOWN FROM UPEI AND PUB- LlC TRANSPORTATION IS UNAVAILABLE. THE STUDENTS LIVING HERE MUST PAY THE SAME RATES AS STUDENTS LIVING ON CAMPUS AT BERNADINE HALL’. THESE STUDENTS FEEL THAT THE UNIVERSITY SHOULD PROVIDE FREE TRANSPORTAT- ION TO AND FROM THE UNIVERSITY, AS IT IS DIFFICULT TO TRAVEL TO AND FROM THE TWO LOCATIONS, ESPECIALLY IN WINTER. THESE STUDENTS HAVE STA- TED THAT THE $30 - $40 NEEDED TO PAY FOR THEIR OWN TRANSPORTATION WO— ULD BE .TOO MUCH TO PAY PER YEAR ' :4MONTREAL (CUP) - An austerity plan for McGill Un- iversity made public Tues- day (Sept. 15) proposes to 'end inter-collegiate athletic competition, reduce the nu- mber of academic personnel and abandon plans for fu- ture student residences st- arting next fall. - The McGill senate has st— arted examination of the pro- posals, drawn up by a group headed by former adminis- tration principal H. Rocke Robertson, but no decisions are expected- before Sept. 24, when the senate meets. Current administration pr- incipal Robert Bell said the university has to take mea- sures to reduce the univer- sity’s deficit by about $3.5 million in 1971-72. McGill is scheduled to get $25.2 million from the pr0v- incial government this year leaving the administration facing a $6 million deficit. Tom Mooney, coach of last year’s national colleg— iate football champions, the McGill Redmen, said the team might be saved if en- ough seasons tickets could be sold to cover the $90,000 a year team budget. Dave Doherty, 21 history graduate student and mem— ber of the football team said: ‘Last year, when we won the championship, everyone told us how much we had done for the school. They told us how proud they were and what fine upstand- ing st udents we were and what a contrast we were to student protesters. ‘We just feel like we were sold out.”
