Concordia's Second Annual Homecoming officially kicks off today under the banner "Come discover the University." An impressive line-up of activities will take returning students, current students, faculty and staff, their guests and families through the weekend and beyond. Geography Professor Alan Nash is an expert on Homecoming is traditionally a time immigration.

Richler is the Jonathan Swift of English-Canadian literature, says Chorney

Off the Cuff is a weekly column of opinion and insight into major issues in the news. If you are a Concordia faculty member and have something to say "off the cuff," call CTR at 848-4882.

It is now three weeks since Mordecai Richler's controversial article on Quebec appeared in the New Yorker and discussion in the media hasn't ceased. Richler's charges of anti-semitism in Quebec nationalism and absurdity in the province's language laws raised the hackles of many journalists. But Harold Chorney, Concor­ dia Professor of Political Science, a Jewish Winnipegger who has lived in Montreal PHOTO: Charles Bela"98f since 1982, thinks that Rich/er was fair in his critique of the history of Quebec Charles L. Bertrand nationalism and the language dispute.

"I was quite pleased with the article. It's actually quite moderate, and it's historically correct. But you have to remember that Richler is a kind of Jonathan Swift of Canadian The Vice-Rector, Academic has literature. This piece was well within his Richler tradition of exposing hypocrisy, something Richler is not afraid to do in public. He offends everbody - the Jewish the pleasure to announce to the _ community, English-Canadian nationalists, this time it was the French Canadians. Concordia University Community 'Where anti-semitism is concerned, you have to remember that the vast majority of Jews of European descent in Montreal lost family in the Holocaust. Understandably, the following appointments: there's a sensitivity to nationalism which has any hint of ethnic chauvinism. As far as Abbe Lionel Groulx is concerned, it is unfortunately true that he held anti-semitic views Dr. Martin Kusy, which he continued to espouse in his writings right to the end of the 1950s. Acting Dean, Division of Graduate Studies

"It is also a.fact that Groulx represented an important strain in Quebec nationalism of Dr. Dorothy Markiewicz, the epoch. Groulx is indeed a skeleton in the closet of Quebec nationalism, and it is Associate Dean, Division of Graduate Studies quite legitimate of Richler to reminds us of this. Mind you, as Richler himself points out, contemporary Quebec nationalism has a much more enlightened view. Dr.. Graham Martin, "The section on anti-semitism is only a small part of a very long article. Most of the Principal, Institute for Cooperative Education article deals with the language laws, where, just like Swift, Richler punctures the absurdities of the language legislation and the politicians behind it.

Insert in October issue of Commerce Changes made to composition of student services' governing body Brochure promotes The composition of the Concordia Council on Student Life (CCSL) has been value of increased by two members (from 17 to 19) to reflect changes that have occurred recently in the administration of student services at Concordia. The Dean of Students and the directors of the five other departments in the higher education student services area will now sit on the CCSL. These are the Directors of: Guidance Services, Recreation and Athletics, Financial Aid and Awards, Health Services, and Advocacy and Support Services. Donald Boisvert, As­ sociate Vice-Rector, Services, Student Life, chairs the committee. The remaining 12 members are: two graduate students (appointed by the Graduate Students' Association); seven undergraduate students (appointed by the Concordia University Students' Association) representing each of the Faculties); one full-time faculty member (appointed by Senate); and two full-time professional student services staff members. The number of faculty members on the CCSL has been reduced from two to one; the principle of parity between students and non-student members has been maintained.

Last week, 13 Concordia Sculpture students played host to a group of 12 students from the Hochschule fur Ges­ taltung (Design Arts School) of Offen­ bach am Main, near Frankfurt in Germany. The German art students' visit con­ cluded an exchange set up by their professor, Wolfgang Luy, and Concor­ dia Sculpture Professor Trevor Gould, which began last November when the Concordia students visited Germany (see CTR, March 28, 1991). The reciprocal visit culminated in a joint exhibition, held in the Coleco Building in the St. Henri district of Montreal, and an exhibition catalogue featuring an introductory essay by Art History Professor Brian Foss. The German stu.dents agreed that living in the homes of their Concordia hosts made it easier to integrate and helped them get a real sense of student PHOTO:Moritz Gaede life in Montreal.

NuAge Editions has chosen Muhla, The Fair One, by English Department Professor Linda Ghan, as its first children's book. "We're kind of unusual because most presses tend to specialize.

The five-year-old house has previously published poetry, short stories, novels, non-fiction and drama.

Haughian approached Ghan in 1989 after reading a play that she had developed for the Black Theatre Workshop. Based on a traditional African folk tale, the play Muhla toured Montreal schools in 1985. "Odette and I read it independently and decided it would make a good kid's book," Haughian said. Concordia graduate student Odette Dube worked at NuAge until she left recently to con­ centrate on parenthood. The 40-page picture book, with full­ color illustrations by Elise Benoit, is suggested for readers aged five to 10.
