TUITION FEES

One of the last acts of the old
Douglas College board was to accept
a recommendation which will increase
the college tuition fee at bott=—
Kwantlen and Douglas College.

The increase in 1981 will be $2
a credit (20 per cent) to a maximm
of $144 (15 per cent). The proposal
was reviewed by an ad hoc committee,
which included the President of the
Student Society, before it went to
the College Board.

The increase was opposed by the
Student Society. Tuition fees will
increase to $13 per credit in 1982
and $14 per credit in 1983. The
maximum payable will be $169 and
$196 respectively.

NETWORK #2.

 

Invitation for for Fall, 1981 Schedule

The Knowledge Network invites proposals for its inter-active instructional
sevice for the period commencing September 8, 1931.

The Fall Schedule will again be carried via the Anik-B satellite to
communities in British Columbia afd transmitted via cable to many homes.
Currently 30 communities are receiving the signal including Vancouver and
Victoria.

Although this is the commencement of a regular service, it will still be
developmental for the next few years. We will be sharing satellite time
with other users in Western Canada whieh may prevent a full 14 hour-a-
day, 7 day-a-week service this year. We anticipate that at least 14 two-
hour time-slots will be available for inter-active use. Time slots may be of
variable t, 1 hour, 14 or 2 hour lengths.

Suecessful applicants will be required to adhere to program and technical
cequirements. The program and technical guidelines included with this
letter should be regarded as minimum.

The Network is developing a tariff for use of its system. The tariff will
reflect the cost of satellite time and the cost of distribution centre
operation. [t will be structured according to program use. Allocation of
system time shall be conditional on the implementation of a cost-sharing
agreement. The tariff should be available in mid=April and proposals may
be made conditional on these fees.

Applications for use of the system for the Fall Schedule - September 8 -
December 31, 1981, will be received until April 30, i981,
Recommendations on time allocation will be completed by May 31, 1981,
for ratification by the Board of Directors.
