Friendly Faces Needed

Peggy Erikson (Admissions) has been hospit-
alized for a one month period.

Anyone wishing to bring a smile or some sun-
shine into her day, may do so by dropping
into Room 374 (Activation Wing) of the Lions
Gate Hospital.

Since being hospitalized is no ‘bed of
roses', a few warm gestures would go a long

B.GC.A.C. Takes On New Role

(Letter to Bill Day, from Lorne Thompson,
Executive Director, Program Services of
the Ministry of Education, dated Aug. 31/83

ordinating role for college and institute
program articulation.

Actual work will be performed by Kathy Bigs-

are still to be worked out.

The object is to provide a forum for dis-

Kathy will be working closely with Program
Services who will attempt to have Ministry

Please advise all concerned of the new pro-

Or can we?
