Farewell Bash: Say farewell on November 5 to Douglas College’s
first employee - Bill Morfey. Buy your tickets now as a last minute
rush is expected. The ticket price of $20 includes hors d’oeuvres
during the cocktail hour, a hot and cold buffet dinner, wine with
dinner, a night of music, dancing and a spot dance or two, some
reminiscences, a contribution towards a retirement gift, good
company and good times. People are welcome to organize groups of
friends to reserve tables of eight. Friends from Kwantlen as well as
retirees and former employees have also been invited. Come and
renew some old acquaintances. This is an excellent opportunity for
new employees to get to know their fellow employees. Please buy
your tickets early from the bookstore or from Jan Watts (loc. 4610) in
the Registrar’s Office so the catering can be booked.

Drivers Beware: New Westminster’s Enforcement Department has
received numerous complaints and questions concerning the 3-hour
parking bylaw from Douglas College students. The following section
pertains to the parking limitation:

"No person Shall stop or park a vehicle for longer than three hours
on that portion of a street abutting a private residence including an
apartment house, boarding or lodging house, group living home, row
house or any other type of multiple use residential premises, not
being his residence.”

Knowledge Pays: The new Knowledge Network Development Fund
is accepting proposals for programs targeted at the general public
(children or adults). The fund is intended to encourage or support the
production and/or acquisition and adaptation of educational programs
for broadcast and use province-wide. Proposals are due November
30. Full details are available from Nini Baird, Knowledge Network
Planning Council, 300 - 475 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, B.C.

Nursing Nuggets: Watch for the Nursing Nuggets Cookbook on
sale in the concourse. These recipes are tried and true and would
make great Christmas gifts. All proceeds go to student assistance.
