CHRISTMAS PARTY !

Lynn (The Great Pumpkin) Ashcroft has
agreed to head up our Christmas Party
Planning Committee.

Lillian Zimmerman has been the prime
mover in our last two Christmas parties
at the McBride Site, and therefore is
bowing out this year as Chairman, although
I understand she has kindly offered to be
involved in the planning, itself.

Announcement

‘farion Exmann recently accepted the po-
sition of Women's Centre Coordinator
for Douglas College. This is a new po-
sition, made possible through special
project money allocated to the college
by the Ministry. Marian will be work-
ing closely with women students and
prospective students, and the college
faculty, staff and administration, to
tiaake the college more accessible to
women.

 

Thanks again, Lillian, from all of us for
two great parties. In recognition of
Lillian's contribution, we are making

the Star of David top ornament a part

of our annual tradition!

We have. all had a hard year. Just to
contemplate the amount of action since
last January is to feel tired. However,
we have come through it, and my sense of
organization is that we generally have

a lot to feel good about. Our Christ-
mas party would be an appropriate time
to stop for a couple of hours,
appreciate each other, and enjoy
ourselves.

Lynn will be assembling a large group
of people to help out. I hope that
everyone will want to help. Please
contact Lynn at local 287, McBride
Site, if you would like to offer your
assistance. I have asked Lynn and her

Financial Aid For Adult
Basic Education Students

The Ministry of Education has made avail-
able some money to assist students in
EOW, ABE, ESL, HUD, and Career Explora-
tion courses. This fund, called ABESAP
(Adult Basic Education Student Assis-
tance Program) is designed to help stu-
dents experiencing financial difficul-
ties, with tuition, books, transporta-
tion and babysitting. It is a ron-re-
payable grant of up to $15 per week.
Students must see the Financial Aid
Officer, Julie Steele, at either the

New Westminster or Coquitlam cempus in
order to make application for this money.

We would appreciate it if you would let
your students know about this fund. _
