The board ap- proved a 10 per cent increase for the fall semester, and the same percentage for the winter semester. The increase means students will be paying an additional $75 per semester or $150 a year to attend Selkirk College. College principal Leo Perra said in a letter the increases were recom- mended because the provincia] govern- ment's new formule for funding cob leges will have a significant impact on the college’s operating budget. - “Tujtion fees, although a relatively small portion of the operating budget, take on added value under the for- mula,” Perra said. “The adjustments to fees will permit more services to be retained rather than face further retrenchment.” Another reason for the increase was that all college personnel have ac- cepted a zero per cent increase in salaries this year in order to maintain programs and services. “Students are asked to make an equal contribution to compensate for reduced provincial grants,” Perra said. The rates will depend on the number of hours in the program. For example, in the career/technical programs 950 hours or longer, such as Forest Re- sources and Electronics, students will pay $357 in the fall semester and $393 in the winter for a total of $750. For most other programs (under 950 hours) students will pay $323 in the fall and $355 in the winter for a total of $678. University Transfer Science stu- dents will pay $298 in the fall and $328 in the winter for a total of $626, while University Transfer Arts students will pay $254 in the fall, and $280 in the winter for a total of $684.

Calderbank program students will pay $70 per month in the fall and $75 in the winter. Perra said the tuition fee policy re- fleets a simpler process for assessing fees. The structure reduces the total number of different fees to a manage- able level. Some programs will have a fee slightly less than 10 per cent where others will be slightly more. The total revenue generated from tuition fees Celgar sawmill remained behind picket lines today despite the fact will meet the 10 per cent adj ' The tuition bylaw did not get approved without opposition. ‘kers returned to cnr Tuesday after locked out pulp unions called off secondary Linda Tierney, C. campus at the il Student Executive Council represen- province. tative on the board, in a letter to,the International board stated: “It is our position to America Local oppose the recommendation to increase fees in view of the economie con- ditions.” She said the increase restricts the tights of some students to education. Student council vice-president Barry Mackie, taking Tierney’s place at the meeting, asked if the tuition fee in- érease will be used to increase the col- lege’s surplus, which presently stands &t $200,000. He said a tuition fee in- erease is inevitable, but not of the magnitude proposed by the board.

The vote was also in favor of re jecting management's proposed con. tract for the Woods Division in Nakusp. The three-year agreement called for a zero per vent wage increase in the first four per cent in the second and 4% in the third year. Meanwhile, length of contract re mains: the stumbling block to settle- ment between the locked-out pulp unions and management in the British Columbia pulp and paper industry. The Ganadian Paperworkers Union and the Pulp, Paper and Woodworkers of Canada, representing some 12,700 workers, met with industry nego tiators for about 30 minutes Tuesday before the talks collapsed. Paperworkers’ union negotiators returned to their local mills today when the industry would not agree to talk a different settlement than one accepted by the International Wood- workers of America, said regional vice- president Art Gruntman. ieee industry is $12.96 an TRG: wkacvibe sei vs. ehed: Celgar remains down workers and the pulp unions expired last June. Gruntman said the pulp unions are willing to accept a two-year agreement with a four-per-cent raise in the second year, or a three-year pact with the same increases as the woodworkers’ three-year pact, plus some cost-of- living protection. The woodworkers’ contract does not include a cost-of-living clause. Industry spokesman Dick Lester said that the €ompanies will not negotiate on the basis of the pulp - unions’ ultimatum, “They want us toeither capitulate on the terms of the agreement or they will go home,” he said. “Well, we are not going to meet on those terms.” Lester also said the pulp unions” hatred of Jack head of the union, is ig con- tract talks. He said the two unions, locked out Feb. 2 at 20 pulp mills in the province, have refused to talk about other issues —~ suchvas health and welfare, pension, bhmewty and management rights — until the question of length of contract decided. CREDIT UNION Labor dispute an issue at local meeting By RON NORMAN Editor B.C. Central Credit Union's role in a volatile labor dispute in Vancouver came into question at Monday's Castle- gar Savings Credit Union annual gen- eral meeting. Credit union member Walter Ev- .. dokimoff asked the local board to ex. plain the central credit union's position .n, fi the second phase of, the Has Cove project on Vancouver's False Creek waterfront. Picketing, A4 The $17 million contract is one of the largest ever awarded to a non- union firm, and the B.C. and Yukon Building Trades Council — which has been hit hard by unemployment during the past two years — has vowed to make the site an example for future developers thinking about hiring non- union contractors. Trades council members have been picketing the site for more than two weeks, preventing non-union contrac- tor J.C. Kerkhoff from starting work. The site has been the scene of some ugly confrontations between union and non-union workers. All credit unions in B.C. are required by legislation to belong to the B.C. Central Credit Union which acts as a cheque clearing house, makes loans to member credit unions, handles pension funds and provides research and legal counsel. inside 35th ANNIVERSARY: One of the largest crowds in its history attended Castlegar Savings Credit Union's 35th annual general meeting this week at the Com- munity Complex. Members elected a new director white saying goodbye to another and learned the credit union experienced record growth in ‘83... Ad WITNESS GONE: The d @ of o star Castlegar Savings chairman Sam Gruden said B.C. Central Credit Union became involved in the project along with the Pennyfarthing development firm in 1980. He said a contract for the first phase was awarded to a union contractor. “That was carried out and com. pleted.” However, Gruden said two bids were received-for the-second phase — one from a union contractor, and the other from Kerkhoff and Sons. Gruden said B.C. Central Credit Union went on record wanting the union contractor to carry on the work, but Pennyfarthing disagreed and took the issue to arbitration. The arbitrator agreed with Penny- farthing and awarded the contract to Kerkhoff, Gruden said. Evdokimoff countered that union funds are “being used to employ anti-un ion workers.” He asked if there is any guarantee that the funds would not be used “in essence as a backstabbing method.” Gruden did not answer, saying B.C. Central Credit Union would issue a news release on the situation on Tues- day. The news release acknowledged that union workers have picketed B.C.
