THE INSIDE ZONE

by Carillon

Die College is filled with
wonderful people who do
their jobs well. They go largely
unnoticed by people outside their
area, but without them, Douglas
College would not be the same.
People like Judy Murray in
Developmental Education, Kathy
Rae in the Registrar’s Office and
Margaret Zucht in Community
Programs and Services.

Not only are they competent
workers, but they bring with them
a friendly attitude which makes it
a pleasure to know them.

Speaking of competent and
friendly people, Phyllis Mitchell,
who has been working at the
College since 1981 and in the
Foundation Office since 1984, has
been appointed as the Program
Assistant in Community Programs
and Services. Her specialty is in
the conference area.

And while Foundation director
Mark Crozet is scrambling to fill
Phyllis’ big shoes, he will also
have to find a replacement for
Alumni coordinator Brigitte
O’Rooney. She’s the new Director
of Presentation House in North
Vancouver. The sunny North
Shore seems to be very popular
with Douglas College employees
as general nursing instructor
Kathy McIndoe leaves us for a
position at Lions Gate Hospital.

Another long time Douglas
College employee, Georgina
Ferguson, has a new appointment.
Georgina is the new assessment
officer. We wish we could tell you
where her new Office is, but as of
press time, the college hadn't
found one. If you need to talk to
her, Georgina can be found in her
old academic advising office.

Looking for Bill Day? If you
happen to be one of those people
who likes to have a tan all over,
you just might run into him.
According to Bill, his new office at
UBC overlooks Wreck Beach. How
is Bill ever going to get any work
done?

NO SWEAT! Security person-
nel say the new shades in the
concourse work. A reliable source,
who didn’t want us to use his
name, says, “It is significantly
cooler sitting here in the security
booth. I’m not sweating buckets of
water.”

Heather Kent is the new theatre
technician, replacing Paul Runnals
who left us for Music 91. She
started July 2nd.

The library has a new collection
of people. Actually they could be
called reprints.

Corky McIntyre is back as a
part time reference librarian after
several years absence working for
the Vancouver Children’s Festival.
She will be replacing Mary
Matthews, who has left to go on

maternity leave. Jean Cockburn is
also back. Jean is replacing Ralph
Stanton, who is reportedly very
happy up on the hill at Simon
Fraser University.

Special congratulations go out
to former library employee Pam
St. Denis. Pam obtained her
Masters degree in library sciences
at UBC in June.

A warm welcome back to
Debbie Perrin in the Registrar’s
office. We missed you.

Former Public Information
Office publicist Barbara MacLean
returns for a two month stint as
graphic artist. She is replacing
Marilyn Attwood who has taken
a leave of absence.

Best wishes go out to Social
Science employee Colleen
Romano, who is expecting her
second child.

“SIS!” Sounds like an ultra
security force. It is the Registrar’s
new Student Information System
and it will be starting this week.
Watch the Inside for further
details.

Notice how we didn’t poke any
fun at the Deans this week. Seems
some of them are a little sensitive.
Still, we can’t resist asking the
following question.

Which Dean at the recent
ACCC conference was chosen as
the best dancer? A hint? It wasn’t
Gordon Gilgan. &
