newspaper issued to us by the university of guelph shows the irrational view of the student unions towards our educational system it suggests almost 16 the point of demanding that we take education jnto our own hands it pefers nonconformity aricl advocates the everdale place as an excellent school system why because the students dont have tq accept the responsibility omoing work there when asked why they- were in scuoiihe students answered became society says i have to be there therefore they did as little school wotk as possible and their parents supplied them with the money to go to everdale place do you think that whcil they get out into the world and get a job and are asked why they are working they will reply because society says that i have to work and then do as little work as possible not a chance they will be after the almighty dollar just like the rest of our society because there will be no one to support them if they dont want to work this is conformity and the necessity to accept the responsibility of knowing you must conform student unions talk a great deal these days about responsibility it is the basis of their demands for free education and a say in the decision making of our school systems however every day many demonstrations show that they are not capable of accepting and exercising that responsibility that they are little more than uneducated children being led by the discontented pied pipers who arent able to cape with our society that they do not want to listen to the few among them who have not been over educated and who huvc something intelligently important to say if anyone will listen responsibility the student union doesnt know the meaning of the word it tries for free education and fret student loans where is the responsibility in chanting we want free loans wasn t it the students who cut iheir own throats by utilising the loan system thus forcing the govcrpmtiit to crutk down on loans this repeats the students typical question what is society going to do for us why should society do anything for them when they achieve whul they asked for they only demind more they wjnl to slart their ftwn vouejy of irresponsibility ind an irthy c it is too bid hi it more students dun t know hie meaning of i he word responsibility hcciuse i feel that a lot of ptople ire inxious to accept student responsibility if the students

want to withdraw american troops from vietnam and oilier foreign bases they cut down communism and picket against american intervention in vietnam bui tell me whero were they when russia invaded czechoslovakia there were no pickets then demanding russia io get put of czechoslovakia it appears to me thai the student unions are backed by a sciuicommunintlc group intent upon destroying our structure of so icty they arc working on you the student in the hope that you will carry these views into i iter life when you the voter tin bring them to reality ridiculous these student unions are merely trying io make a mockery of our society they must be suppressed they want the abolition of irtoncy and economic imperialism civil disarmament anil full unemployment if these students want to get anywhere they had better come out of their little hedonistic world where noone has any responsibilityeven unto himself i would like to thank the school idministration for not showing prejudice and allowing the ontarion to be distributed i hope that its distribution along with the above will show students the absurdity and impracticably of student unions in todays society jane fonda jason

condemned this should be obvious after last week s drjnu in the high school when universitytype instigators tried to secretly ml ill rate an ontanon supplement advocating stuuent power into schools throughout the aicj in guelph kitchener gait and teigus school otticials banned its distribution on school grounds and threatened o expel students caught reading the paper as a result the in thing o do was sneak a copy behind a park bush and absorb it as the gospel in translation in acton school officials agreed to its distribution encouraged students to read it and then discuss its merits in class iinic- the result here was an objective critical analysis on the pan ol the students most saw the literature tor what it was they picked out its few good points and threw out the rest as disgusting sensationalism this realistic approach should be applied in more aieas we aic hvtng with rapid mass communications and the days when tacts ot life could be hidden in the basement in the preservation ot south and innocence are deader than last year s christnns trees young people know about sex drugs lsd and dirty vvords the trouble is they often dont know all about them it is tune to bring them up out of yorkville and into the classroom or across the family table for discussion and analysis on the adult level no one likes to be told wlul they should believe in particularly young
