ANUFMIVEO

Mr. J. Beardsley
Personnel Assistant

| Douglas College

: P.O.Box 2503

New Westminster, B.C.

 

Dear Mr. Beardsley:

I have examined both your application forms for
non-teaching employment and for faculty employment.
Your application for non-teaching employment is excellent,
It does not contravene the Human Rights Code in any way.
I especially like the fact that you have added to the
application form that you comply with the Human Rights Code
of British Columbia. I have just made one small amendment
to the section outlining the Human Rights Code. In fact
I have taken a xerox copy of this application form and will
show it to other people enquiring about application forme,
to show them how one may best be made up.

 

Concerning your application for faculty form, I have
made a notation beside "Maiden Name” under the personal data.
The question concerning languages I feel would be best
answered under Section F, Career Objectives, No.6. Most
candidates I feel would answer this question there. To
include it under General Information could possibly be
construed as trying to get information as to a person's place
of origin but it is unquestionably useful to the College that
canéidates for teaching positions be able to speak languages
other than their native tongue.

Under the Miscellaneous Section H, No.l "Do you have any
obligations or conditions that mean you will have to be away
during the Academic Year.” I think you should bear in mind
that pregnancy is a condition that may call somebody away from
their academic duties. Perhaps you could make all female
applicants of child bearing years aware of the Maternity
