College teachers disagree over workload figures A survey of teuching jstaff, conducted by Durhamn College ap- parently contradicts statements by OPSEU (Ontario Public Service Emnployees Union). Teachers at Ontario's 22 éommunity colleges are. still. on strike over the issue 0f weely workloads. The teachers dlaim that the -current union contract does not consider hours spent working outside of te assroom. According to th e teachers, the standard Of education is threatened by the large class sizes and 'the amount of unrecognized hours spend working by teachers. A survey of 33 percent of Durham College teaching staff found the number 0f hours worked li class was an average of 20 a week according to college management. There were also an average of 16 hours spent in.evaluation and preparation. -An average weekly workload of 38 hours. The survey also noted that the largest average class size was 47 studen- ts and the smallest about 20 students. The survey concluded that the date refutes the teachers' arguments. The teachers would like hi receive a con- tract that defines the number of hours spent outside of classroom i- struction. The present guideline- is llxnlted *to only 20 hours a week of contract time, there is no definition of the lother aspects of workload.

However, no agreement' bas been reached on workload, which is the cruz of the strike issue. A union represen- tative forsees no early settlement, to the already week old strike. nuinher may be, nnpIlementedlurgo WoUUIU e costly. "There wil be a significant cost," he said, "A annual cost would be in the six figure range. " However, it would in- clude only police, fire, and ambulance services if n»mplemented. Other services such as emergency road and water and sewer repair wlll flot be included. According to Bob Wekarcbuk, district sales manager of Bell Canada, 1"911"1 would have to include ail emergency services and would cost about $28,000 a month. He noted that "1911" bas become synonymous with emergency aid. Wekarchuk told the committee that Bell Canada wil not charge the region for its service durmng the study stage of the project. However, if regional- council ac- cepted- the study and sent Bell a letter of in- tent, then Bell would begin charging for its services. If the- region rejects the study, it ,wiIl fot have to pay Bell for its services. The task force proposai met with op- position froin Oshawa Mayor Alan Pllkey who sald that' the report didn't give enough financial information. Pilkey said that "before expectations are, raised"' the region should know what it's getting into financially. However, Evans and other members 0f the committee assured Pilkey that the region would not be Hable until after the study is com- pleted. Af ter the meeting, Wekarchuk said that if the region decides to implement 1"911"1 after the study report is han- ded down, it will take Bell two years to instail it. He added that the earliest it would be im- plemented is Oct. 1987. It is Bell's preference to implemeàt 1"911" with the distribution of the new telephone direc- tory. In this area, the directory is issued in October. Wekarchuk said that whlle it Is feusible to implement "911" only in I c certain parts of the region - iLe. the lakeshore communities .it ýprobably makes more sense to im- plement-it on a region- wide basis. tI)e *~Ap~j!t ~ $frppe Quallty Pins & O.k Fumîturo SOLID OAK 4' EXT HARVEST TABLE WITH 2-12" LEAVES 3 Cama.
