LIBRARIANS AND ARCHIVISTS CONTRACT TALKS UPDATE

Librarian strike date looming London transit union offers support in form of sympathy action, should workers picket By Stuart A. Thompson Gazette Staff

Students could be walking through picket lines next week if Western’s librarians and archivists don’t reach an agreement by this Friday’s strike deadline. If a strike were to be called, libraries would remain open but research help would not be available and other library and archival duties would halt. Library assistants would continue working. The London transit union has offered their support, pledging buses won’t cross the picket line, even if just one picketer stands at Western’s entrance. The dispute is the result of months-long contract negotiations between the administration and the union of librarians and archivists. The union said it wants better job security, more pay and clearer evaluations, claiming these conditions are not equal to other universities. Western library workers are paid about $12,000 less than their colleagues at other institutions, according to the figures available in the 2009 Canadian Association of University Teachers Almanac. “We rank first in library quality alongside [the University of Toronto] and McGill University and across Canada we are the worst paid librarians and archivists in the country,” Regna Darnell, president of the UWO Faculty Association representing the library workers, said. “The conditions of work are, in a lot of ways, appalling.” Alan Weedon, administration representative and Western’s viceprovost academic planning, policy and faculty, declined to comment

specifically on any of the union’s claims, noting negotiations were still underway. Weedon said it is important to look at the big picture when comparing salaries. “If you have a group of people that are relatively old or relatively more senior, their average salaries might be different from another group,” he said, adding U of T might pay higher salaries because the cost of living is higher in Toronto. Weedon explained the University is still feeling the effect of the recession. During the summer months, Western terminated 150 jobs, both vacant and occupied. These economic realities affect the kind of settlement administration can offer. “Hopefully the economic situation doesn’t last forever. We have to reach an agreement that’s appropriate for this particular environment.” The administration tabled the union’s salary demands last week and offered a one per cent increase, according to Darnell. She added 1.5 per cent was the settlement for other campus employee groups. While Western made job cuts in many departments, Darnell said downsizing isn’t necessarily what’s happening in campus libraries. She speculated administration may be broadening the librarians’ jobs descriptions so library assistants, who are less trained, can take up more work for less money. “Downsizing means you have less people. De-scaling or de-professionalizing means you hire people who don’t have the same kind of credentials and make them do the same work,” Darnell said. An open letter sent to Western

President Amit Chakma yesterday by several groups affiliated with Western librarians sided with the union. In it, they compared 113 members of the Association of Research Libraries and ranked the salaries and benefits for Western librarians at 91. While both sides are optimistic about a resolution before the Friday deadline, they also admitted a strike won’t have a big impact on student lives. Gloria Leckie, a professor in Western’s masters program in library and information science, said a longer strike would have more dramatic effects on students. “In the short run it may not affect them terribly because we have a very good library with a big collection, so students would still be able to get access,” she said. “But if a strike dragged on, it [would] start to affect things because new material won’t be coming in and new databases and electronic sources won’t be added to the collection.” Check out tomorrow’s opinions section to read the open letter sent by Western’s librarians and archivists to President Amit Chakma. AT ISSUE Pay discrepancies — The average salary for Western librarians is about $12,000 less than the national average, according to 2009 CAUT Almanac Job security — Union workers claim job descriptions are vague or non-existent, allowing easy reassignment while encouraging lower paid assistants to do the work of professional librarians and archivists Annual reviews — Union workers say there are no criteria for annual evaluations. New criteria proposed by the administration are usually used for multiple-year reviews.

H1N1 vaccine offered Mt. Allison still looking for prez to ‘at risk’ groups By Shreya Tekriwal Gazette Staff

By Jared Lindzon Gazette Staff

With a limited amount of H1N1 influenza vaccines at their disposal, the Middlesex London Health Unit has begun distribution to those at the highest risk of serious illness. Among those in the high-risk category are people with underlying medical conditions, children between six months and five years of age and health care workers. They will be the first to receive the first round of the H1N1 vaccine, made available this past weekend. “People with underlying med-

ical conditions, the very young and the very old, we know from experience are at an increased risk for complications with influenza,” said Graham Pollett, medical officer of health for MLHU. “Because of their underlying medical conditions people are less prepared to combat influenza, and it could put them in serious jeopardy.” According to Pollett, the vaccine is being produced as quickly as possible, though there will not be a sufficient amount to service the entire population for a few more weeks. PLEASE SEE STUDENTS P3

Students at Mount Allison University in New Brunswick have yet to find a student council president for the current academic year. After seven months and three elections, Mount Allison’s Students’ Administrative Council still does not have a president. According to Sarah Carrigan-Kent, SAC vicepresident academic affairs, the problems began in April when president-elect Paul Rasbach stepped down before taking office. “I think his reasons were that he was not wholly into his academics and thought that he would be better served going into the workforce,” Carrigan-Kent explained.

The SAC held a second election in September, but ballot problems and appeals led to the results being discarded. “Our Chief Returning Officer forgot to put someone on the ballot […] the actual list we had didn’t match up to the number of ballots,” she said. Following a review of the situation by the university’s ombudsperson, it was decided the election results were void. “We went back and did another election. During that period, our CRO resigned and the vice-president finance took over the position,” Carrigan-Kent said. According to Carrigan-Kent, SAC’s bylaws require a 50 per cent plus one vote in order for a candi-

date to become president. “One candidate had 49 per cent and the other had 47 per cent,” Carrigan-Kent explained. The SAC eventually decided to start council without a president. According to Carolyn Hawthorn, communications officer for Western’s University Students’ Council, a similar situation occurred at Western about 10 years ago. Hawthorn also mentioned in accordance with USC’s bylaws, the communications officer would assume the role of president until a special election could be held. A new CRO will be appointed for SAC by next week, marking the start of the fourth attempt at an election. In the meantime, Carrigan-Kent will be assuming the role of president.

UPEI cutting costs by cutting credit cards By Allie Fonarev Gazette Staff

The University of Prince Edward Island has recently decided to discontinue credit cards as a method of tuition payment, sparking some anxiety among the student body. “We have a budget task force here, and we’ve been looking at ways to save money and that’s one place where we could make some savings,” Anne McCallum, media and communications officer at UPEI, acknowledged. McCallum acknowledged some misinformation and worry has been spread about the discontinuation, especially from the UPEI Student Union. She underscored the changes will not be implemented until July 2010. “We’ve given students more than a year’s notice on this so it’s not like we’re bringing it in suddenly,” McCallum said. She explained the university will

put in alternative arrangements for students to pay electronically through internet banking to make it as convenient as possible to pay tuition. According to McCallum, many universities are taking the measure, and some have never accepted credit card payments. “[Western] does not allow you to pay for tuition with credit cards. It’s incredibly cost-inefficient for a university to allow it,” Dan Moulton, vice-president university affairs for Western’s University Students’ Council, said. Moulton explained Western has been flexible in providing alternative options for payment to students with Financial Aid Services, finding students loans and awarding bursaries and grants. “I think most students should recognize credit cards aren’t the best way to pay for education,” Moulton added. On the other hand, Moulton suggested universities have to be realistic about students’ abilities to pay for their education. “I think this leads into the bigger picture of what students face with the costs of education,” Moulton said.

iClassrooms The Calgary Board of Education is pursuing a new initiative to introduce the use of iPods as educational supplements in classrooms and libraries. Some possible applications include portable periodic tables, astronomy charts, graphing calculators and downloadable audio books and news feeds. Videoconferencing and the incorporation of green screens will accompany the proposed iPod technology. “Our initial goal is to promote digital citizenship,” Karen Pegler, senior education specialist at CBE, said. “We see this initiative as a balance between safety and ethics.” Students will bring these devices into the classroom. It is our initiative to use this to help support learning in a way that embraces digital citizenship,” Pegler added. CBE does not advocate fully replacing traditional means of learning with technology. —Ruina Zhang

Students grappling with tuition concerns today may find solace in the estimated cost of post-secondary education for students of the future. According to a report by Toronto-Dominion Bank Financial Group, expectant parents in 2009 must save $137,013 over the next 18 years if they plan to finance their child’s undergraduate degree at an out-of-town university. For students living at home, parents can expect the slightly smaller cost of $101,426. The report showed when inflation is removed from the future estimates, the cost for a student living away from home expressed in 2009 dollars becomes $92,369 — representing an increase of roughly $15,000 over the current national average tuition cost. TD continues to advocate for investments in education despite the increase in cost. Women can expect to make 14 cents more per dollar in after-tax income, while men can expect 12 cents more per dollar when they have an undergraduate education. “There are very few [other] investments that would return between 12 and 14 per cent,” Shahrzad Mobasher Fard, the TD Research Analyst who co-authored the report, explained. —Ora Morison

Law abiding citizen After 33 years of teaching law at Western, Craig Brown has announced he will broaden his academic interests with a venture into the professional world. Brown recently accepted a consulting position at Thomas Gold Pettingill Limited Liability Partnership of Toronto. In the past, Brown has offered his services as a consultant to various lawyers, government organizations and industry interest groups. Brown added he would continue teaching law despite the added responsibilities of being a consultant. “I enjoy teaching; I enjoy relating to students [and] I enjoy doing academic research in the legal field,” Brown said, when asked what has kept him involved in academics after so many years. Brown’s extensive experience with education will be incorporated into his new position at TGP LLP, where his role as a senior consultant will also include mentoring junior staff members.

media found only 48 per cent of Canadians are certain they will go out of their way to be immunized. “I think people are too afraid,” Tanyse Beckett, a fourth-year social science student, who has already recovered from the influenza, said. “I was actually pretty concerned about it because I’m kind of a germa-phobe that way, but after having it, it is not as scary as the media makes it out to be.” Pollett emphasized the safety of the vaccine and cleared up some common myths surrounding it. “It’s important that people understand you can’t get flu from the flu vaccine,” Pollett added. “It is an inactive vaccine. In fact, it’s not even the whole virus, only chopped up pieces of it. We know that in healthy adults like university students it will prevent infection for 80 per cent of people who take it. Of the remaining 20 per cent, if they were to contract [the H1N1 virus], it would be a much milder infection.”

“The federal government has purchased sufficient vaccine to enable anyone […] who wants or needs the vaccine in Canada to receive it,” Pollett explained. “That being said there’s only one plant in Canada that produces the vaccine, and the maximum production of the plant is three million doses per week, and that’s for all of Canada.” With the current distribution system, London has so far received 45,000 doses of the immunization to service its population of over 400,000. Pollett acknowledged students at Western might not be at the top of the priority list when it comes to vaccines. “You can see we don’t have sufficient vaccine to immunize everyone in the community who wants it,” Pollett acknowledged. “First we have to immunize those who are at highest risk for complications, and as we receive more vaccine, we can open our clinics to the general public, including healthy adults such as those attending Western.” Though the Student Health Services is not permitted to distribute the vaccine, an open clinic may be available on campus. “The health unit will not give [the vaccine] to us for students,” Cynthia Gibney, manager of Student Health Services, said. “They are trying to find somewhere on campus to do a mass clinic for the general population.” According to Gibney, dates for the possible clinic have yet to be finalized. As health officials scramble to immunize the population, many Canadians are not convinced of the severity of the situation.

We Heart Librarians As of midnight this Friday, Western’s librarians and archivists will be in a legal strike position. With Western’s libraries remaining open even if a job action occurs, questions may be raised as to whether Western’s students will even notice or care about the strike. Librarians may play the largest undocumented role at university campuses across the country. As more of librarians’ work is conducted behind the scenes, student interaction is often left to RefWorks lectures and being reminded not to eat in the library. Now that a research essay can be written without any direct contact with a librarian, many students have a perception library staff do not play a major role in their academic experience. This is unfortunate, as librarians play a vital role in making research an easier task by organizing and uploading digitized resources. Be it through selfishness or ignorance, students may not realize all the hard work librarians do. While an undergraduate science student is unlikely to have much direct contact with library staff, they most likely take advantage of the various medical and scientific journals available online through Western’s libraries — the acquisition of which leads directly back to library staff. It’s a sad fact many students would be more willing to involve themselves in this debate if there were actual disruptions to services, which may occur if the London Transit union follows through on their pledge to support fellow strikers by not providing service to campus. But short of this step, many students are unlikely to be very interested in the issue. In actuality, Western lags far behind other “research intensive” universities across North America when it comes to salaries for librarians and archivists. Though one could argue the library staff at Western should be realistic and not expect to be paid on the same scale as Ivy League universities, we claim to compete at the highest levels of academic excellence. How can Western sell itself on merit if it’s unwilling to put the money behind its words? Administration may wish to bring the economic climate into debates about pay equity, but it is unlikely they’ll find a sympathetic audience. It is hard to understand how Western’s library staff salaries can fall over $10,000 behind the national average when our school’s many administrators, including our new president, are paid so well. It is for these reasons students must realize even if this strike doesn’t directly affect their daily activities, the role library staff play in a university, especially one as purportedly “research intensive” as Western, should be respected. Though technology can make it seem like we do more research ourselves, librarians make these things possible. Please see “Library” on Pg. 1 for further details on the librarian strike.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

UCC vendors questionable To the editor: I had to comment on the blatant misuse of university space in the UCC this week. Though there are merchants that come and go throughout the year — such as the beloved poster sale — I really did not expect to see a sales booth overflowing with what seemed to be embarrassingly cheap knock-offs and counterfeit clothing. I was disgusted to see this sort of activity being supported by the university. Should I assume I will also be permitted to flog homemade DVDs of unreleased movies in the near future? — Kaleigh Rogers English III

Ed note: For more on vendor concerns, visit the Gazette at westerngazette.ca and check out our coverage of the issue in: “Vendor legitimacy called into question”

Waste audit leaves foul impression To the editor: Friday, I walked into the University Community Centre and was greeted by the atrocious stench of rotten garbage. Not 10 feet from the main entrance was a demonstration called a “Trash Audit,” put on by EnviroWestern concerning the proper disposal of waste items. These brave souls rummaged through garbage bag after garbage bag, dissecting their contents, sorting the mouldy, old organic waste from liquids, pooling together the remnants of beverage containers and that miscellaneous garbage juice that pools at the bottom of the bag. Their objective, I can only imagine,

was to raise awareness for the issue of recycling. I think every one on the main floor of the UCC was “aware” of the atrocious stench as they gagged, just trying to eat their lunch in peace. My issue with this demonstration is not on political grounds. Aside from the obvious sanitation concerns one might have, the primary issue here is one of class. The environmentalists chose, of all days, to hold it on convocation. While hundreds of recent grads and their families packed the UCC, all robed up and dressed in their best for this most special occasion, not only was the building filled with the less than pleasant stench and the eyesore of heaps of rotten garbage, but the display was also physically in the way of the crowds trying to make their way into the building. I appeal to you on a virtue that seems almost totally lost on our campus: class. I don’t know whether we just don’t put any stock in the most rudimentary level of class anymore or if it just takes a backseat to the political agenda of one club, but it was convocation for heaven’s sake. I reiterate the issue has nothing to do with free speech or the weathered and tattered banner of awareness. EnviroWestern has my blessing to go out and protest, picket and parade till its heart’s content. But what is absolutely deplorable is to throw around mounds of garbage in the middle of a dining area during a graduation reception. I understand the drive to raise awareness in the midst of what seems, at times, like a pandemic of apathy. And I will give you points for creativity; however, a responsible organization would consider not only the effectiveness, but also the implications before creating such a display. To the USC who authorized this, I propose the merit of the cause alone should not be the sole grounds on which you approve a booth. Not only did this display undermine the respect towards EnviroWestern, the institution and students, but by choosing graduation day, it undermined the alumni as well.

ARE YOU AFRAID OF THE DARK? Paranormal Activity is scaring audiences with its unorthodox and low-budget fright tactics.

Paranormal Activity is far from cheese Realistic filming approach saves film from corny horror flick status By Whitney Waks Gazette Writer

Paranormal Activity Directed by: Oren Peli Starring: Katie Featherston, Micah Sloat With Halloween just a few days away, horror flick Paranormal Activity provides a spooky tale to stir the imagination. Using the same camera techniques as 1999’s The Blair Witch Project, Paranormal Activity is in a more believable realm of horror films. Director Oren Peli authenticated the film with a realistic storyline

and convincing characters like Katie Featherston and Micah Sloat who play themselves. The young couple moves into a new suburban home only to be greeted by a demonic presence that refuses to leave. The film’s use of a hand-held camera invites the audience to become involved in the day-to-day experiences of Featherston and Sloat as they try to confront the demon invading their home. Featherston and Sloat have great chemistry and a relatable storyline. They depict a typical young couple starting a life together in their new home. Sloat portrays the loving, but sometimes immature, boyfriend who has to deal with Featherston’s

neurosis of being trailed by a demon. Featherston plays a vulnerable young woman who suffers from night terrors and supernatural company during the night. When Sloat and Featherston cohabit, Sloat learns Featherston’s fears are not fabricated. The lead characters’ interaction is genuine as they play the part of boyfriend and girlfriend well, dealing with the common and sometimes uncommon bliss and grievances of living together. The realism portrayed in the action scenes makes the ghostly presence in Featherston and Sloat’s home seem more believable. The constant inexplicable occurrences

that inhabit the couple’s new house are eerie and far from cheesy; it could make any viewer squirm in their seat. The camera technique is initially hard on the eyes and takes some getting used to and the most frightening parts of the film are towards the end, which may require some patience from the audience. Luckily, there is enough suspense to keep them captivated and eager to see what chilling surprises will be revealed. The conclusion of the film leaves an impression on the audience — one that is worth a trip to the movies. Find out for yourself, if you dare.

Regardless of where Concepts by Toronto band Little Girls is played, the listener is greeted with pleasant, upbeat tunes. The album, recorded in a home studio, boasts a distinct alternative sound — the music makes it almost impossible not to bob your head and tap your feet to the fast-paced music with an underground feel. If you were perhaps attending a basement party, a secret rave or making your way through the underground tunnels of the city, Concepts would be the sort of soundtrack playing in the background. With no distinct words or lyrics, the listener is left to feel their way through the music. However, the heavy presence of instrumentals coupled with a lack of lyrics is a downfall of the album. It is unclear if the scarce lyrics are supposed to be heard, or if the incoherent sound produced on the album was in fact the style the band was going for. The home recording process makes the music scratchy — however not too harsh — but the singer’s voice is muffled and overpowered by instruments. The track arrangement is well done, but many of the songs sound similar and the album overall feels repetitive — it becomes difficult to distinguish one song from the next. The dynamics and tempo need to be better arranged in order to avoid monotony and hold the listener’s interest for the entire album. Concepts shows Little Girls’ potential to improve as a band and the album is a decent listen despite both technical and conceptual problems. — Rushlee Garrick

ONTARIO INTERCOLLEGIATE WOMEN’S FASTPITCH CHAMPIONSHIPS

Nobody’s perfect: UWO falls short of history Women cruise through round robin poised to repeat until…

…Mustangs run out of gas in finals, lose for first time all year

Not even the rain could dampen these Mustangs. This weekend the Western women’s fastpitch team played host to the Intercollegiate Provincial Women’s Fastpitch Championships. After completing the first undefeated season in Ontario history, the Mustangs entered the tournament as the top seed. “The fact that [we are] the defending champions right now is giving us reinforcement to win,” Mustangs pitcher Melinda Stevenson explained. Western’s women’s fastpitch team has been a dominating force since its opening season in 2002, capturing the league title the past five seasons and winning two provincial gold medals along the way. Friday’s games were cancelled due to rainy conditions, forcing the team to play all three games on Saturday. The Mustangs made quick work of the first two games, beating Guelph 11-4 and Windsor 7-1. With only one game left and the chance to go 3-0 in the opening round and advance directly to the semifinals, Western took on their last opponent, the Toronto Varsity Blues. After six innings of defensive softball, the score remained deadlocked at zero. “We were just hitting the ball right to where they were, and we weren’t getting very solid hits,” Mustang infielder Lindsey Martin said after the game. That changed in the bottom of the sixth inning, when Martin came to the plate with the bases loaded and raked a ball deep into the outfield, driving in three runs and securing the 3-0 win for the Mustangs. After the game, Toronto coach Brian Robertson was resigned to the inevitable result against a much stronger Mustang team. “Basically we had nothing to lose. We tried to weather the storm — we did that for the first six innings, but we just couldn’t get our game on. They’re a phenomenal ball team.” Despite a relatively easy road to

The 2007 New England Patriots, meet the 2009 Western Mustangs women’s fastpitch team. The Mustangs fastpitch team was only one win away from a perfect season, yet they couldn’t finish it off. In the final game of the 2009 Ontario Intercollegiate Women’s Fastpitch Championships in London, Western fell to the McMaster Marauders 3-0, finishing an otherwise exemplary season with bitter disappointment. The third and final day of the tournament shaped up well for the Mustangs, despite three talented opponents in the semifinals. “Any one of these four teams could win, there’s no question.” Mustangs Head Coach Pete Lemon said at the beginning of the day. “We’ll just have to do our best to make sure they don’t, and we do.” The Mustangs started the day on a positive note. Matched up against the University of Ottawa Gee Gees, they played exactly the kind of game they had been known for — focused, energetic, and consistent. Both teams came up strong in the opening innings, but Western remained focused down the stretch, taking the game 7-3. There was a moment of controversy in the fifth inning when Gee Gees head coach Scott Searle was ejected from the game following an argument with an umpire. The dispute arose when Searle walked onto the field to argue a call made at home plate — and was promptly removed. Searle was blunt in his criticism of the umpires. “I don’t know why I got kicked out. You’ll have to ask the umpire, to be honest. I’ve coached for a long time, and I’ve only been ejected from a game twice — both times in London,” he said. After a successful semifinal game, the Mustangs advanced to the finals against rival McMaster, still brimming with confidence. The two teams had already faced off in three games during the regular sea-

There must be at least eight OUA directors that approve it before softball will be able to gain official OUA status. Until then the Mustang fastpitch softball program will not be recog-

nized as a varsity sport and therefore must continue operating as a self-funded team. “Hopefully with our record this year and if we can pull out the championship it will bring more recognition to our sport,” Martin said. “Hopefully down the road it can help us gain the varsity status that we’re looking for.”

Galea’s hot hand too much for ‘Stangs CONTINUED FROM P6

Laura Barclay/Gazette

HERE COMES THE HEAT. Mustangs pitcher Melinda Stevenson threw a no hitter to defeat the University of Toronto 3-0 in Western’s final game of the round robin.

son, with Western taking them all. There was every reason to expect a Mustangs victory yet again in the championship game. Unfortunately, nobody told McMaster. Focused from the start, the Marauders got on the scoreboard by playing classic small ball. Runs by Jacqueline Morrison, Kyla Schneider and Brittany Hicks saw McMaster take an early 3-0 lead in the first three innings. Not only was McMaster effective at the plate, but the Marauders also had an answer for the Mustang offence in the form of pitcher Shannon Galea. Galea, a Canadian national level player, was exceptional, consistently blowing the ball past the Western batters. “She’s really strong,” Mustang’s captain Siobhan O’Connell said of Galea after the game. “We’ve always had trouble hitting off of her. We were hoping we could find some gaps, but it just didn’t work out that way.” “We couldn’t string a lot of hits together. When we threatened, they came up with a big play or the umpire made a call that would go against us. We just didn’t catch the breaks today,” Lemon added. For her dominating performance over the whole weekend, Galea was awarded the Doug Parry trophy as the tournament MVP. The dominant Marauder was quick to share the credit with the rest of her team. “I’m very happy that we pulled through and came together as a team. We knew coming up against Western it was going to be a big game and a hard fight,” she said. “We’ve always come in fourth in the past [and] never medaled. It’s great to finally do it.” Marauder’s head coach Ken Oda was elated with his team’s upset over the top ranked Mustangs. “I’m so excited for these girls. They worked really hard. We had to fight the weather all weekend. But the girls did it,” he said.

Despite the disappointing end to the season, the Mustangs still have a lot to be proud of. Their defence was solid, rarely making any mistakes. Determined and spirited efforts from players like Lindsey Martin and Danielle Abdilla in the field kept the hopes of the Mustangs and their hometown fans alive for the whole game.

However, at the end of the day, their efforts were not enough. “Everyone is disappointed. We anticipated bringing home the championship,” Lemon said. “However, it is a resilient group. I think we will be stronger after this. And while it will hurt for a few days, when we put it into perspective, we will see that this season was still a great accomplishment.”
