College hosts
all-candidates
forums

Douglas College will present a

series of three forums on post-secon-

dary education with provincial
election candidates from ridings
served by the College.

Douglas College Board Chair-
man Myrna Popove said the forums
will offer local voters an important
opportunity to hear and ask
questions about this key issue.

“Post-secondary education is
often discussed as one of the major
factors which will shape the future
of British Columbia. These forums
will allow the candidates to tell the
public what kind of future they
envision,” said Popove.

The forum for Maple Ridge-Pitt
Meadows and Mission-Kent will be

Renovations to ease growing pains

 

  

New space under renovation should ease some of Douglas College’s
growing pains. Community Programs & Services, International Education,
the Community Resource Development Office, the Douglas College Foun-
dation and the Alumni Association will all be moving to their new digs in
January 1992.

Director of Facilities Services Terry Leonard says that College depart-
ments keep on growing. “The new space will alleviate some crowding. It’s a
short-term plan to accommodate the College’s needs, at least until the Co-
quitlam campus comes on line in 1994.”

The expansion, outside the theatre foyer on the fourth floor (north), is
especially good news for Community Programs & Services. Original designs
for the campus did not include a field base for that division because, at the
time, it was envisioned that there would be CP & S offices at sites through-
out the College region. “One reason for the expansion is to put CP & S
together as a unit,” says Leonard. “They've been all over the place.”

The new space will also include a multi-purpose room. The Public Infor-
mation Office will move into the area vacated by Community Programs &
Services, while the Human Resource & College Development Division will
move into the space vacated by the PIO. @
