John Fox represented McGill. FEQ was born out of a meeting last October between Quebec student leaders to discuss common issues and concerns. "FEQ as an organisation is moving ahead very quickly," said Fox. "Wcwentso far as to fill out an npplication to incorpomtc." Fox said FEQ's founding congress is scheduled for March 11th in ·' Montreal. McGill has not yet signed the application because Fox has no mandate from McGill students' council. Fox said the new association is necessary because, "ANEEQ doesn't represent the interests of Quebec universities, it's too CEGEP oriented." "Tite universities forming FEQ are the same universities who rcfuscrl to have anything to do with ANl!EQ,.who, tired of being individual minorites, have decided to form a larger organization."

"At this point we arc just setting up the foundations of the federation. There wiiJ be no referendum this year. One may not be required at aJJ," Cote said. "It depends on whether or not Students' Society will pay the membership fee as an organization, or whether McGill students will pay each or whatever." Concordia was the only ANEEQ Assessors give their report Annual Harassment Statistics released by Ken McNuughton McGill's sexual harassment committee filed its 1988 report showing a 100 per cent increase in the number of complaints, but the Legal Aid Clinic is compiling statistics showing many incidents of sexual harassment at McG ill sti 11 go unreported. Few incidents of harassment arc reported to the Sexual Harassment Assessors. One formal complaint was investigated-same as last year- and twenty informal complaints were foJJowed up by the Assessors, compared to nine last year. Of these twenty, seven were inquiries only, three arc ongoing and ten were resolved "within the limits of the sexual harassment guidelines." Legal Aid says it sees at least one complaint every week. One of the Assessors, Associate Registrar Linda Christcnsen, believes their numbers will continue to increase as more students become aware of the service through MCM erecs respond in opem letter by Shawn Apcl Montreal Citizens' Movement president Jacques Desmarais is calling on the general council to resolve the dispute over the expulsion of four counciiJors in December. Councillors Marvin Rotrand (Snowdon), Pierre Goycr (Jean Talon), Sam Boskcy (Decaric) and Pierre-Yvcs (Mont Royal) resigned from the caucus in December. Hours later, they were publicly expelled from the party. The four withdrew from the caucus citing dissatisfaction with the growing centralization and decreasing democracy within the Dore-Fainstat administration. Dcsmarais' public explanation January 13, an "open letter" sent to newspapers, acknowledges party members' right of dissent, but he faults the four councillors for resigning over a difference of opinion and asks whether one can "identify with the MCM only when the decisions taken confirm one's point of view?". The councillors claim they can better serve the party as independent caucus members. Carolinc Singleton, a Notrcdamc-de-Gracc district association coordinator, said the MCM was accustomed to dissent because the party is built on democratic ideals. "We don't try to have consensus on every issue," she said. Rotrand claims the MCM neglected stifled opposition. "The last straw" he said "was a Jack of pluralism and the ability to express dissent openly in caucus." Peter Wheeland, coordinator of Snowdon's district association, said the mass resignation is only a symptom of deeper problems within the pany • "The disease, he said "is that the MCM is proceeding too slowly or not at all." Dcsmarais'· letter stated forums for discussing the democratization of the administration wiiJ be held on February 22 and in the spring. According to Whccland, "the riding associations arc overwhelmingly in support" of the four councillors, and constituents have firmly backed their decision. The Dore-Fainstat administration has been the the target of growing attacks. There arc calls to return the true power of the party to its member at this weekend's meeting. Cot.C said Concordia's membership in ANEEQ is tenous, but this is news to Concordia University Students' Association president Andrew Madsen. "I sec no real movement to puJJ out of ANEEQ, in fact I sec no such movement at all. It isn't even an election question," Madsen said. "Our interest in FEQ is conditional. FEQ is very very new. We are very much members of continued on pnge J members. Councillor Rotrand told tile Daily "we reaJiy have to have a party that's prepared to give orders to its administration." : ....

The councillors all wish to remain active MCM members.There could stiiJ be a long legal and procedural debate to determine their status. When asked whether they would ever rejoin thecaucus,Rotrandsaid that "maybe one day wc'JI letthem (the Administration) join us." No one is talking about forming a new party. Rotrand emphasised the four councillors' belief in the MCM party. ''It has a progressive program and a wonderful membership." word of mouth and education. She says the "administration is very supponive of the problem" and this will boost confidence in the service by showing students "that there is a real commitment, tli,lt it is not a sham." But the Legal Aid Clinic secs a need to establish a policy on sexual assault, currently not covered in McGill regulations, and harassment, independent of the University administration. Students at Legal Aid want to create a 'Student Advocacy Committee' comprised mainly of women, designated to deal with sexual assault and harassment complaints. According to Annette Lcfebvre, a member of Legal Aid, concerns about the effectiveness of an internal committee may prevent some students from approaching the Assessors with complaints. "The Assessor's role is to be impartial, but because they arc part of a university adminstrativc body one could question their impartiality," said Lcfebvre. The Assessors stress their commitunent to impartiality. "We remain objective to both sides and would definitely withdraw from a case if a conflict of interest existed," said Assessor Patricia WeJJs. "Justice is my priority and one not have justice without impartiality," she said. Lcfebvrc says Legal Aid is not against directing a student to the Assessors, but "students would often be more comfonablc coming to Legal Aid frrst. She pointed out there would not be a duplication of services as "it is essential to have different avenues of complaint so that everyone can be helped." "Of course everyone has the right to choose," said Wells, "but I believe that the University has a strong, effective policy and I would hope for better communication with Legal Aid in order to prevent any delays in resolving cornplaints." � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
