Students are starting school this year in colleges across Ontario as the union representing faculty at the 24 colleges is drawing towards the deadline for a negotiated settle-ment with Colleges Ontario. The Ontario Public Service Em-ployees Union is the union repre-senting more than 10,000 faculty members at colleges across Ontar-io. Faculty members include coun-sellors, instructors, professors and librarians. On Sept. 10 union members will be voting to give the union a man-date to strike. “The colleges are running out of time,” says Carolyn Gaunt, the faculty bargaining team co-chair. “They have had two and a half months to negotiate, and they still haven’t addressed our key issues. What are they waiting for?” According to the union, key is-sues in negotiations are better treatment of partial-load faculty, academic freedom so that teachers rather than management determine how courses are delivered, and an updating of the workload formula to address increased online learn-ing. This uncertainty is causing a lot of stress for students who don’t know if the classes they’ve enrolled in are going to be disrupted by a la-bour action in September. Last year, college students saw school start in chaos as support staff workers went on strike for the

first time in 32 years. The support staff workers, were on strike for 18 days as the col-leges played hardball. However, one thing that the col-lege administrations seem to forget is that the core value of post-sec-ondary education, and particularly that of college, isn’t in “learning outcomes” or “return on invest-ment” or other ridiculous buzz-words that are flying around in self-serving government reports. No, the real value for students is in the quality of education that they can get in college. There are no magic shortcuts for producing high-quality education for students. The only way students get quality post-secondary educa-tion is if they have knowledgeable, highly-trained teachers who have time to give students the kind of personal instruction that ensures they can grasp the concepts being taught. Instructors need small class siz-es—and we’re talking about in real brick-and-mortar classrooms not isolating online courses. They need job security, not pre-carious contract-to-contract class-es where they don’t know what, or if, they’re teaching next semester. In these negotiations leading up to a possible strike or lockout they need our support. Let’s let them know that we support our faculty and we’re in this together for ac-cessible high-quality education.

One who says that they have never cheated in life is lying. Let’s face it, we all have done it at some point in life, it may be during a soccer game, speeding or running a red light, copying music from the internet, making excuses about why you were late, proclaiming yourself greater than you are in an interview or even two-timing your partner. As weird as it can get, there are so many things people do that they do not consider it cheating because they rarely or never get caught. Before you get me wrong, I would like to clarify that I am against cheating. Cheating in an academic setting is a disaster. It is totally against aca-demia’s sole purpose of learning. It’s an endemic phenomenon that exists in almost all educational institutions, right from middle school and high school to college

and universities. George Brown College maintains strict academic policies and guide-lines. The code of conduct and disci-pline handbook mentions all the do’s and don’ts to be followed by students. It defines the boundaries within which a rewarding and mutually supportive learning environment can be created. It is the duty of each and every student to go through it and con-duct themselves according to the laws and expectations. Exampes of a lack of academic integrity includes fabrication, cheating, forging or falsification of documents, impersonation, pla-giarism, and inappropriate use of digital technology. The college believes that each individual must uphold the values of fairness, honesty, trust, respect and responsibility in order to suc-

ceed academically and eventually in life. Jim Daku, chair of the School of Financial Services, Centre for Business, explains that academic dishonesty is extremely unfair for those who do the legitimate work. Lots of research has been done on why people cheat. The temptation, pressure and lack of time impel students to take this step. But, it becomes worthless and demoralizing for the honest stu-dents who slog day-in and day-out for marks just to eagle-eye other people cheating and getting a bet-ter result on D-day. Daku, who is responsible for the administration of academic policy in the college says that they get a lot of complaints concerned with cheating in examinations from the faculty and even students. The college does not conduct ex-ams the same way as universities

do. Here, it’s the faculty who set the standard. They must have clear and specific rules that should be explained at the beginning of every exam, and anyone who does not follow the dictum can have action taken ac-tion against them. This action goes through a process where an out-and-out investigation is carried out into the nature of the incident. It starts with a warning and can end up in expulsion from the col-lege. “As cliché as it sounds, you are re-ally cheating yourself. Maybe not now, but there will be a time when it will have its consequences.” said Daku in a message to all who en-gage in academic dishonesty, “The world is a competitive place; stu-dents should aim for knowledge and not just to pass the course with the help of unfair means.”

“We are the students of George Brown College committed to sup-porting each other in the struggle for student rights, pursuit of qual-ity education and the provision of services in a safe, equitable and accessible environment.” That is the mission statement for the Student Association (SA) of George Brown College (GBC). The SA is a central student gov-erning body representing the in-terests of all GBC students. It is a place where the students can voice their concerns and also have some fun and work—pre-cisely in that order. The LifeWorks center is an in-tegral part of the SA. LifeWorks includes services like food banks which provides emergency food assistance to students who need it. Campaigns is a program that ad-vocates on issues affecting stu-

dents. It gives students a chance to be heard and to represent their interests. Campaigns fights for student rights and ensures a safe, accessible and equitable learning environment. The community centres are safe spaces for students to gather to-gether and support each other, share ideas, socialize, build com-munity and raise awareness of is-sues within their communities. Free condoms and lube are pro-vided to the students at St. James, Casa Loma, and Waterfront cam-puses. The advocacy and appeals pro-gram provides an advocate to the student, who works to redress ac-ademic problems, academic poli-cies and ensure that all student rights are upheld. The legal counsel handles issues including family law, criminal law, debt issues, landlord and tenant issues, immigration is-sues, OSAP appeals and also as-

sistance with affidavits—all at no cost. LifeWorks also provides pro-fessional photographers to click graduate photos. The SA provides most of the other services that a student gets at GBC. Services like health ben-efits. In collaboration with insurance companies like Green Shield and Global Excel health benefits are arranged for both domestic and international students. The Safe Walk program is a joint initiative between the SA GBC. Safe Walkers work in co-ed pairs to escort students, staff and guests to local parking lots or TTC stops. During the last five business days of the month kiosks are set up for the students at different campuses to provide them with discounted TTC Metropasses. Various clubs also function within the SA, which students

can register and become a part of. These clubs share common pas-sions, goals, and work to spread knowledge and awareness to-wards a number of good causes. The student representative council is the latest addition to the SA. It is an initiative that lets the students be the face of their program. This council is formed to increase student involvement and engagement. The Dialog newspaper is pub-lished every two weeks by re-porting on important news for students on what’s happening on campus and in the community. The SA is solely for the stu-dents, the students need to realize this and make full utilization of all the facilities and services they are being provided. Awareness is the key, being aware of their rights as a student helps students make better-in-formed decisions and shape their career.

International students welcomed at GBC

Moving to a new country to study can be an immensely riveting, life-defining experience. It’s the hope of a better future that lures students to make the shift. Pro-pelling one’s knowledge base in a wider horizon through quality education is an important factor too. The scope of international education is an ongoing learning process that includes not only ac-ademic work but also an overall development of the individual. It isn’t easy for students to make the decision, which in-volves drifting away from family, friends and potentially a decent life back home. Being out of one’s comfort zone in a foreign country makes the student realize that life is tough indeed. But who weath-ers through the storm of struggle comes out a stronger person. John Porter, director of inter-national admissions and student services, said, “the students come

to us with number of different challenges and issues: person-al, cross-cultural, financial and academic. A new international student might be feeling lonely, isolated or homesick. He or she might be facing challenges in keeping up with the rigorous aca-demic program.” That initial period is taken care of at GBC quite magnificently. The international centre at GBC insures a smooth transition of the student into the new scheme of things. Porter said, “The primary man-date and mission of the interna-tional centre at George Brown College is to support internation-al students; help them succeed; ensure their safety and well-be-ing; and resolve their issues and problems to the very best of our ability.” For problems of a serious per-sonal nature, such as depression, the international centre refers

the student to its trained, profes-sional counselors in the student affairs department. For financial challenges, international students are offered scholarships, emer-gency funds and bursaries. For academic matters, students are referred to their academic de-partments or provided with peer tutoring or other supports. In ad-dition to activities offered by the international centre, the Student Association offers lots of social activities, events, and clubs for students to meet and get to know each other. The international centre is avail-able to the students as a resource for information and guidance on everything that is required. It provides a wide range of other services like, admissions, immi-gration, homestay accommoda-tion service, health insurance, information regarding work-per-mits and co-op placements. About 900 international students

are expected to join GBC in Sep-tember. These students show up from almost 100 different coun-tries around the world. The ma-jority of them come from China, India, South Korea, Latin Ameri-ca, Brazil, Russia and Saudi Ara-bia. The upcoming international events in this fall include the City of Toronto’s airport welcome booth from Aug. 11–Sept. 10; Smart start for new international students orientation on Aug. 24; A new international student so-cial event is tentatively planned for Sept. 8, with the official date to be announced; New inter-national student orientation on Sept. 21; and the City of Toronto international student festival on Oct. 6. It’s the time of the year which evokes freshness in the air. This fall, GBC has its door open for all the international students and is ready to warmly welcome them.

TORONTO—In late July, hun-dreds of First Nations chiefs from across the country backed a mora-torium on mining and develop-ment in an area of Northern On-tario known as the “Ring of Fire.” They also called for the eviction of companies operating in the min-eral rich area, which has been de-scribed as “Ontario’s oil sands”. The province has called the Ring of Fire “one of the most promising mineral development opportuni-ties in Ontario in almost a centu-ry.” The area contains the largest chromite deposits in North Amer-ica, as well as gold, nickel, copper, platinum and palladium. Opening the area to development has become a major focus for the Dalton McGuinty government. The moratorium demand and eviction notices were voted on by the hundreds of First Nations chiefs gathered in To-ronto for the Assem-bly of First Nations’ (AFN) Annual General Assembly. The AFN is the largest First Na-tions advocacy organi-zation in the Canada. “It is solidarity,” said Sonny Gagnon the Chief of Aroland First Nation, whose commu-nity would be impact-ed by the development. “We need the support. If and when we need to go on the land to en-force the evictions no-tice…we will have 633 First Nations that will be behind us.” Over 20 mining com-panies have claims in the Ring of Fire; how-ever a major impedi-ment to these projects is that there is currently no ground access into the area. Several com-panies are now com-

peting to build road or rail access. Proposals from two of these companies, Noront Resourses and Cliffs Natural Resources, have en-tered the province’s environmental assessment stage. This has lead First Nations to believe that the projects are moving ahead without obtaining their “free, prior and in-formed consent,” as laid out in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. In late June, the Matawa First Na-tions Council, which is made up of nine first nations communities, announced an “immediate mora-torium on all mining exploration and development…unless, and un-til, Ontario and Canada come to a government-to-government table with a mandate to negotiate funda-mental questions of First Nations jurisdiction…and real resource benefits and revenue sharing for our First Nation.”“We hope that the Matawa Tribal Council communities will recon-

sider this action and come to the table to discuss their concerns with us,” said Andrew Morrison, a spokes person for the Ontario Min-istry of Northern Development and Mines, in an email to the Toronto Media Coop. “We recognize that there are dif-fering views and positions on First Nations’ jurisdiction and rights. Those differing views do not di-minish Ontario’s commitment to working constructively with First Nations and industry to achieve practical outcomes and results,” explained Morrison. “Through good will, mutual respect, and on-going dialogue we are confident that we can resolve these concerns in a positive, productive and mean-ingful way.” Chief Gagnon sees the province’s dealings with First Nations very differently. “They just seem to want to come into my community, stand on a podium and preach to our people as to how they are go-

ing to develop this land. No, no, no. We have got to have dialogue.” He believes that for First Nations to be treated as equal partners they need to be provided with the re-sources to hire lawyers, geologist and other consultants that the gov-ernment and mining companies are able to afford. Cliffs Natural Resources and Noront Resources were among the companies that were issued evic-tion notice in late June 2012. Both companies refused to respond to a request to comment in this article. Gagnon said that an action plan to enforce eviction notices was being developed, but would not reveal any of the details.

September, when you think of it, is it the start of classes that come to mind or maybe the end of long, sunny, summer days?

No matter what your idea of September is, it also means fro-sh week. Another school year is about to start and along with it an-other frosh is quickly approach-ing.

Frosh week is marked at campus’ across the city with events at Wa-terfront on Sept. 4, Casa Loma on Sept. 5, St. James on Sept. 6, and Ryerson on Sept. 13 This year’s main frosh party at

George Brown College’s St. James campus on Thursday Sept. 6 is going to have a special guest appear-ance by Fefe Dobson. Felicia “Fefe” Dobson, 24, is originally from Scarbor-ough, Ontario and came out with her self-titled first album in 2003 from which the tal-ented performer had four singles. Dobson went on to become a Canadian sen-sation receiving two Juno Award n o m i n a t i o n s for Pop Album of the Year and New Artist of the Year. Recently, Dob-son’s songs have been heard in the televi-sion show Vam-pire Diaries and promos for the movie Whip It and the video game Sims 3: World Adven-tures. Dobson played the Live Green Toronto Fes-tival on July 21 at Yonge-Dundas Square.

Promoting green products and a green lifestyle the festival was an all-day music sensation. From noon to 10 p.m. the 104.5 CHUM FM main stage didn’t dis-appoint with Dobson being one of the headliners. She brought out a crowd of her faithful fans when she went on, who rocked out to songs like “Bye Bye Boyfriend’” and “Joy” prov-ing Dobson is a true performer. From playful to soul-bearing, Dobson’s music has grown from her first self-titled album to her second ‘Sunday Love’ and her third ‘Joy’. At her young age, Fefe Dobson is more than ready to tackle expecta-tions for her upcoming release. “People expect you to bring it by the third album,” she says. “But I’m not letting the pressure get to me because that’s when the fun disappears. I want to laugh and enjoy myself because, at the end of the day, I didn’t do this just to do it but because I love to perform and make music. At the end of the day, I want to be rocking like Tina Turner when I’m her age.” Make sure to see Fefe Dobson rock the stage on St. James cam-pus’ second floor patio Sept. 6 at 4 p.m. It’s going to be a can’t-miss show! Another interesting attraction for GBC students of is the Monsters of Schlock featuring performers Burnaby Q. Orbax and his brother Sweet Pepper Klopek. The show is quite spectacular be-ing described as being Canada’s only two-man demolition derby and a “circus freak show with comedy and magic” by the pair in an interview on their website. Their website also states that they have “two diverse backgrounds devoted to one motto: violence is funny.” What does this mean? Well dear readers you’re going to have a frosh that’s an unforgettable expe-rience.

The Huskies took on the College of Charleston Cougars, a National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I team from South Carolina, United States, in an exhibition basketball game on Aug. 11. The pre-season game was played at the Alex Barbier Gym in the St. James campus of George Brown College (GBC). The Cougars looked like a more cohesive unit as they coasted to a 92-45 win over the Huskies. They led from start to finish, posting quarter leads of 30-11, 49-24 and 76-32. Huskies guard Frank Gyamfi, an 85 per cent free throw shooter last season was good on 11 of 15 in the loss to Charleston. Gyamfi had a game-high 13 points for GBC followed by Salissou Abdulkader with eight. Dwayne Harrison posted 14 rebounds to go along with his five points. Huskies captain, Dwayne Har-rison talked about the positives from the game. He said, “It was a good learning experience for the boys. The Charlestons were stron-ger, tougher and at a different lev-el altogether, but our boys fought well.” Jonathan Smith, the new head coach for men’s basketball team, was disappointed but not disheart-ened with the result of the first major game under his coaching. “GBC has a great amount of talent. These young men work extremely hard, and are working hard to learn a new system and coaching style. Work ethic is important factor and we are very hopeful that it will be used both on and off the court. I was extremely proud of our team and how we matched the intensity of our NCAA counterparts. It was a great learning experience for all of us and we can only learn from participating in these kinds of

events”, he said. Smith was pleased with segments of George Brown’s trap game, one of the Huskies priorities for the upcoming season which begins on Nov. 2 with a home court game against Centennial College. The trap game includes forcing oppos-ing teams to commit fouls. The goal is to go to the free throw line 35 times a game. In his praise for the college, he also pointed out the terrific fa-cilities that GBC provides to its students in terms of sports and training. He plans to make GBC basketball games a great event for all to enjoy. He called in for more participation and hoped that stu-dents will come out to support the home team and watch the game as their sixth man. The Huskies next game is sched-uled for Sept. 28 at 8 p.m. in the Alex Barbier Gym vs. the Metro Police.
