A FORUM FOR ENGINEERING CONCEPTS


MANDATE DENIED
Q EMF falls through
Engineering Soci ety "A" has
failed to approve the Quality of
Educati on Maintenance Fund
proposal in the second and
deciding rp. ferendum held Oct-
ober 27 and 28.
St ephen Yip. Chief Returning
Officer for the QEMF referen-
dum. announced the out come
early in the evening of Octobcr
28. This result represents the
cunclusion of a campai gn which
began last March.
QEMF was to have been
established "in order to mai ntain
the quali t y of engineering edu-
cation". QEMF was seen by its
proponp.nts as a cunstructive
means of responding to declining
university funding.

81% were in 63%
of the eligible voters turned out
for the Engineering Society "A"
referendum. 55% of them came
out in favuur of QEMF - less
than the requircd two-thirds
majolity. This resulted in the
defeat of the proposal.
Dean Lennox was also dis -
appointed in the referendum
result. He saw. QEMF as having
more thall dollar value. To him it
was also a potential cntalyst
which Ihl\C in-
creased contribut ions from al-
umni. Certainly the money would
have been handy in some situa-
tions. but QEMF was to have
been only a temporary measure.

Dear Editor:
Why is Ihere such apathy
among the engineering students
at Wnterloo'! Whal does it take to
motivate students to spend a few
moments to vote in a referendum
which concerned every student
in What does it take
to convince students to attend a
presentation by theAPEOand its
present registration regulations?
Within the past week, within
engineeri ng, we ha ve had it two
day rderl!ndum which "boasted"
a vote l' t urnout of 63'%'. When! nre
tht! renHlining 37%? Do they
believe that effective deciSIOns
can be reached by abstaining
from decision making? I have
always thought one of the most
important IIbilities an engi lH!pr
must have is the ability to weigh
HII the availahll' facts wilhin his
mind and formulate an ap-
propriate opinion. He musl have
till' confidt'nce and commit him-
self to it. Whal was the problem
this past week for 37% or the
student population? Why were
those opinions not voiced in the
October 27, 28 QEMF refere -
dum?
Secondly, I would like to
comment upon the poor showing
at (;rant Boundy's presentation
on "The APEOToday" un Friday,
October 29. Presf'ntly we have
abuut 2100 engineering students
on campus. Friday, at 12:30,
IlpprC)ximatcly 60 (approximate-
ly 2.8%) attended Mr. Boundy's
lecture. Certainly more of us are
interested in this AssociHtion
Ihlln these meagre attendance
figllres indicate, are we no!'? Is it
not our obligation to ourselvl's
and to our' profession to keep
ourselves informed of chan'ges
wilhin a body charged With
InaintllJlling the standards of our
profession'! I r, as st udents, we do
not r.ar!! enollgh to remain up to
date in this mAtter , why would
we start to ca re upon grad uat ion'!
Exr.uscs Rlways {'xist, but Ihey
do not eliminate the obligalion
we have. as professionals, to
listen to thosr. who regulate Ollr
fictions. Hopefully this body and
other simi lar regulatory bodil!s
will always be right, but if
someday changes are being mnde
or are not being made and only
2.8% or all engineers show
interest...Lord help us!!!!!!

the view from the top
Ohviously, just lH'cause the
QEMF relf'l'endulll was defeated,
thisdoes not me<lntheproblelilof
l1ndrrfunding to (lUI' laculty will
disappear. Th('rrfor(', QEMF
ought to bethoughtllfonly asonl'
alt ernat ive. This past wpekcOll u t
the APED (;onferr.ncp. which was,
of course, hosted by EngSuc A, I
had a chance to talk to
rrom the other engineering
schools in Onldl'io "bout till'
problem of underfunding.
A number of students had
opinions anti ideas about under-
funding and the most notable of
those ideas Gume from Gus
Rinella, one of the conference
delegatp.s from the University of
Toronto. I Hm sure most of you are
awal'l' Ihat this past spring, U of
T instituted fI $100 incidental f(,l'
for the undel'gl'aduate engin-
eering students. This fee would
be used so lely forthe purchaseur
undergraduate equipment ilnd
hiring of teaching assistants.
Like the QEMP. U ofT's fund was
voted in for a three year mandate
and th!' fund is reviewed yearly
by the engineering socit'ly. Atso,
the fund can be dissolved by the
students if they are not satisfied
with it s operation or results.
The big difference between the
U of T fu nd and QEMF is that
their fund is allotted by the
faculty and not by a separate
faculty-student committee. An-
other chnracteristic of their fund
worth noting is that 75% of the
fund is distributed Ito the dif-
ferent departments within the
faculty based on the number of
s tudents tuught by thai c11'pnrt
ment In type of quotn system).
The remaining 25% would be
uSl'd fOl' funding of equipment or
tl';H:hing assistants t(JllI' used by
n1OI' (, than one departml'nl. As I
mpntionect herore, thl' II ufTfund
is a $100(;ontrihution per 5t ud(w t
per yetiI' making the rund worth
approximately $25(),000 per
Yl'al'. ellS, who is in the metallul'-
)oIic,d engillecl'lng department.
stated Ihnt a ll'eadysl'vpral pieces
of equip111ent have been bought
lIsing this fund for his dl'part-
men!.
Allot h('r met hod which the lJ of
T students nrc using to solici t
funds IS by a four day telephone
ci.ln\assing blitz of their alumni
by the undergraduate students
this fall. Gus said that ahout lI'n
students from each class lVould
be working on this Inur dny
canvassing. '
It is evident Ihat the U of T
are addressing thl'
problem of underfunding in lJ
consl rUGt ive wa v. Instead of
re Iyi ng sole I yon the govl'l'n men t.
they hine looked towal'dsothers,
namely the students
and thl' alumni for help in sohjng
thp undel'funding problem.
The alternatives which U of T
has come up with deserve some
a\lention and I would be inter-
hearany proposals, ideas
or suggestions that anyone here
at Waterloo has come up with
because, as I stated before, the
underfunding problem will not
disappear by itself.

To the editor:
Engineering stU<iI!l1tS in the
"A" stl'en111 have spoken in
df'l1lOcrilCy'S 10ucII'st voice -the
referendum - and the QEMF is
dead, at for n{Jw.
At the risk of sounding like a
poor loser, (I actively cam-
paignl'tl fIJI' the YES committee) I
would liketoput rorwflrdsomeof
my thoughts on the results.
First Iy, an opport unit y has
he!!n lost. This proposal pro-
vided an opportunity ror stu-
dents to hav e il greater voice in
our educntion. Certainly. any
proposal that can provide sur-h
an opportunity should be regar-
ded in a positivI' fashion. This is
what has bel!n lost.
Srcondly, valuable time has
bern lost. This proposal was
sl'ven months in prepal';ltion for
this wl!ek's vote. It is not dirficult
to helieve that it will tab! at Il'ast
this much timp for another im-
proved proposal to be put ror-
ward ror approval.
the lab equipment is not getting
any younger.
Finally, and most importantly.
we have lost t he chance to show
the University, the government.
and the general public that
Waterloo engineering s tudents
can provide uniq ue Hnd const ruc-
tive soluti ons to the problem of
cutbacks in the funding or OUR
educat ion. QEMF was devised as
a way ror us to contribute
di redly to OLJ I' edllc<1t ion ina WilY
whil:h would IJI' visihll' to both
the lJniversil l' communit\, and

Park. It was hoped, perhaps
naively, that this laller gro'up
would see that we, as students.

To the editor:
How could it happen? How
could over 50% of the voters
actually deny themselves a bet-
ter education? Are they too
cheap!!! Are they too concerned
that nolhing will result (rom
their money? What the hell will a
UW degree be worth?
Already employers are taking
grads from other schools in equal
if not greater numbers. No longer
is the UW grad a priced person
with his co-op education. QEMF
was an idea. It was an idea to
upgracle the environment in
which we learn. It didn't propose
to completely revamp and up-
grade every depart ment and their
faci Ii ties. Ins tead it represented a
fund to promote undergraduate
improvement for all engineering
depart men ts. Su re, a lot of money
is required to meet all the re-
quirements. out without QEMF
th ere will be no improvements.
ow, soml! engineering stu-
dents are selfish and wanl the
money to go only to their depart-
ment. so they voted no. Well,
consider that t he budget for new
etjuipmcnt this year is under
$:JOOO. I hope thos e damned
self ish engineers use outdated
etju ipment (or Iheir entire school
years Hnd don't find jobs due to
insurficient knowledge or pre-
senttl'chnolllgy.
Eng ineering is ongoing. Evol-
ulion never stops. To keep up
with technology we need the
investment in teaching equip-
ment and aids. A vote of QEMF
would a t lea s t ha ve been a start at
enh;rnc: in g conditions.
Instead the Hsses who voted
against QEMF voted to continue
to have the antiquated engin-
!!el'ing taught at H supposedly
progrl'ssi ve school.

When I first registered at

impression that I I ... ould only
have to serve one double
term, altel'nat i ng cont i nually
with employment until com-
pletion I feel that if I
knew I'd servp.two double terms,
I might have registered at an-

He feared. as Jdl did, that this

down with peripheral
details. I\lilrk relt thClt thes!'
details could always IH' worked
out. and thai students should
havp voted to the
general prrnciple of t he proposal.
ow that QEMF has gone the
way of the dodo bird, where do
WI' go rrom hp.!,!,? The u nder-
funding problems which gave
rise to the QEMF proposal arc
still very much in evidence. Dean
Lennox will continue to canvass
alumni and act i vely seek out new
sources or funds with or without
a QEMF. The puzzle seems to be
how students can act to ensure
the quality of their educatLOn is
maintained.
The mood in the plo-QEMF
camp is understandably on of
disappointment. Jeff pre-
sident of Eng Soc "A", couldn't
put his finger on anyone reason
for the defeat, but suggested a
variety of factors which may
have contributed. He thought
that students had been saturated
with facts and opinions on QEMF
since last spring and many have
become a little fed up. Jeff relt
that the YES campaign was as
energetic: nnd strong a s the one
run in th,! sUll1mer . He was
cr iti cal of the 0 campaign,
which fo(;ussl d students' at-
tl'lltion on the nuances of word-
ing and spt'c iri,: details, which
caused Itwlll to lose sight of the
broad purposf' of the proposal.
Thl' campaign has
hrought Ihls problem to the
rOI'droo\. Dean Lennox. lerfCo)'

coul'ilgl'd by the high votl'r

to university underrunding. Stu-
dents are participating in the
search for solutions.
Next week, Jeff Cox and Mark
Liddy will meet with nlf'mbers of
the NO ccllnpaign to discuss
alternatives. jf!rr that the
many people who voted against
the QEMF proposal have though t
about other ideas and ways to
address the problem.
Mark Liddy and "8" stream
students "Yill also be looking at
dit rerent ways fo approacb the
problem. It is Mark'sfeelinglthat

private student contributions.
These may be in the form of
contributions to Ihe Dean's Of-
fice, or perhaps a group of
students might get together to
purchase a piece of needed
equipment, say a microcompu-
ter. Classes may join together to
buy things that they need.
Of course. these ideas are still
in the speculative stage. In the
aftermath of QEMF, many new
ideas will be tossed arouRd and
many new proposals will be
considered. If anyone out there
has thoughts and ideas, make
them known. It is through
discussion and consensus that
new solutions will be found. This
is an opportunity for everyone to
get involved, and to participatein
the search for solutions to issues
which are central to our educa-
tion.

ow it's my turn. Maybe you think it's too many times Ihat you've
heard Eng Soc begging for assistance, maybe you're tired of hearing us
nagging at you for a liltle help.
But that is, in my opinion, nol the way the story reads. There's no
"WE" and "YOU" here, or at least Ihere's not supposed to be. Remember,
I'm a st udent, so is everybody else around here in t his office. We all have
assignments, midterms.labs and project s like t he rest of you, and I'll put

How then is this spread
around, say. in our case. Engin-

from this second diagram sal-
aries take up far anu <Iway the
lilrgest 1Jl-!rr:en t age.
Similarly most uf the income
from "ancillary services" (ref.
Fig. 1) remains tied up within
lhem and have little or no errecl
upon us.
This breakdown does not in-
clude any of the monirs involved
in reseilrch funuingsincc it seems
to take care of itself, in a manner
of speaking. Allor:ations for
researr:h providc equipmcnt and
materials nut normally planned
for undergraduate prognlms so
that we seldom see any of it
anyway .
One area which may provide
considerable improvement in the
coming years is il sector labelled
Trust and Endowment. As the
influence, wealth and number of
our alumni grows (which most
likely will mean you and me, my
rriends) this portion of the whole
should show some healthy signs
of improvement.

musicul comedy show that goes
on in the first wf'('k of February.
But. really. FASS IS mur:h more.
In 1963, thl! lil'st "FASS Nite"
show \\ as plodul;eu. It WriS a

clln t inued as a "ariet y show lint il

had casts and were
verr popular. One yeill. FASS
1'\ en 11('ld all all-night to
t'ntertain people who Wl'reCtlmp-

Earh In the seventies. FASS

were 1ienerall y popula I', alt hough

Chevron's famous "FASS is [or

the Chl'\ ron seems to bnve given
up on FASS.
Although I111W has a
script and sometimes even a plot.
it retains Illuny of its old trHeI-
itions. FASS's main trndition is
that it never t urns anyone ilwa,'.
Anvone 1\ ho wants to act. write
or 'perform tech work is wel-
comed. FASS is a lso k nown for
its parties. FASS provides par-
ties and IIthersociHlevcntsyear-

one reason why FASS is able to
i1ttract somc of the best ar:tors.

IRON WARRIOR
Design Competition
strut
This year the annual Ontario
Engineering Design Competit-
ion is bping held at Queen's
University in Kingston. Well.
what of it?
You as an engineer will most
likely become an element of the
interface bet ween the theories
and discoveries of science Clnd
the layman population of which
our world consists for the most
part. And technology seems to be
moving ever further Clnd eve r
fCistel. increasing this infor-
mation gap. [n addition to our
"practical applications" we will
also have to be able to com-
municate these new ideas and
technologies in a manner that is
acceptable to the general public.
The OEDC has three main
goals, and I quote:
a) the establishment of a com-
petitive forum through

which engineering students
may focus their strengths in
problem solving and com-
munication - two key ab-
ilities in successful engin-
eers,
b) the promotion of interaction
between engineers from var-
ious sectors - government.
industry and academics -
with each other and with
students to increase bonds
bet ween these sectors.
t:) the minimization of differ-
ences between the scientific
community and the public.

lic. communications must be

groups. Public concerns
must also be heard and
understood by members of
the scientific community.
you
stuff
This is the fourth year of this
competition, and these goals of
the original competition are still
the driving force behind the
whole concept.
How, What , When?
The OEDC is open to all under-
graduate engineering students
registered in a full time program
at an Ontario university. Each
team I'vhich enters is required to
post a fee of $25 per student on
the team and this must be sub-
mitted with theapplicationform.
This application form, available
at the Orifice. must be received
by t he firs t of Decem ber. This is
not to say that the project is to be
finished by that time (which
would eliminate all t hose with-
out something on the go already)
but rather just that the proposal
for the project must be sub-
mitted.
It is possible that some cat-
egories of pro posals recei ved will
receive more entries than can be
permitted, so it is best to apply
early.
The competit ion is divided up
into four categories, with sep-
arate judges for each category,
selected on a basis of their com-
competence in engineering and
business. The judges will also be
permitted to ask questions freely
and seek any necessary infor-
mation.
Everyone who enters receives
a plaque in recognition of their
involvement in the competition.
Third place winners in each
category tak e home $300, second
place winners $400 and the
winners. $500.
The first of t he four categories
is En t repreneurial Design. En-
trants are to design a product or
process not currently of Can-
adian origin. Lest that not be all
to clear. let merephrase t hat. One
often hears that Canada is a re-
source-based nation, dependent
for the most part on technology
which has been imported. In this
,categnry .. students are encour-
aged to develop a product or
process for Canadian industry
which is not only technically
sound, but also economically
feasible.
Teams of four are permi t ted, to
a maximum of 16 teams. A two
page ou tlin e must be submitted
with t he application. A display in
the form of a booth is expected at
the competition in March, and
this should include design draw-
ing, a cost benefit analysis in its
application. and a prototype. The
prototype is not required, but is
recom mended.
Since cmnmunication is a
major portion of the compet-
tition a one page explanat ion and
an oral presentation (15 min-
ules) are required with the
design.
Judging is done on the fol-
lowing basis:
Originality 25%
Difficulty and Suit-
abili ty of the
Chosen Problem 25%
Technical Feasibility 15%
Economic Feasibilitv 15%
Presentation . 20%
The second category is in Cor-
porate Design. Entrants are re-
quired to analyze and find a
solution to an existing Canadian
industrial problem. This cate-
gory is aimed at pruviding prac-
tical experience through solution
of aut hentic technical problems.
Once again, a team may consist
of up to four students, each one
selecting one of the problems
IRON WARRIOR
from a list published by the
OEDC committee. This list is
available in the OEDChandbook
in the Orifice, and makes some
interesting reading. A limit is set
of three groups per problem. so
once again it isbest toenterearly.
Since information supplied is
only scanty. each team making a
submission will receive thename
of a person responsible for the
problem with the corporation
concerned. The name. address
and telephone number of this
"consultant" will be returned
with the acceptance of the appli-
cation. Some supplementary in-
formation will also be provided.
but entrants will be responsible
for obtaining the remaining in-
formation and specifications on
their own.
This tno must be displayed in
the form of a booth. incluuing
design drawings and an econ-
omic analysis. A full descriptive
rep(lrt she.dd be ;Jv.lilableas well
as a one page brief. Once agnin. a
fifteen minute oral present1:llion
is necessary. and a prototype.
although not required. is highl .
recommended.
The entri es will be judged as
follows:

Travel
Take to the Rails
I was in Amsterdam's Central
sta t ion wai t ing for the a rri val of a
train that would mark the begin-
ning of my "Grand Tour"through
Central Europe. and killing time
by re-reading pari of "Europe on
520 a Day". "How long does it
take for some-one to start up a
conversation with you on a
European train?". the boo!..
asked. "Justtakearide.andyou11

It was early on a Sunday
morning. and I found my seat in
an otherwise empty compart-
ment in an almost empty car.

young German carrying it guitar

Spanish trains ha\'e the ild-

cheap. especially if you're used to
northern European prices. They
also have the reputation of being
incredibly slow. which I can
verify all too well.
