Ethnic epicureans can partake in an international beer and snack gar-
den from 4 pm until 6 pm in the lower cafeteria. There will be different
foods and different beers from countries around the world.

Bissett says that Douglas College can be a vehicle for changing how
we view people from other cultures. “We would like to see the College
as a leader in shaping a non-racist environment as opposed to a reflec-
tion of society. All groups have participated in this and have shown com-
mitment, so it’s been an exciting project. We hope that it will be a
long-term yearly event to make Douglas College a leader in eliminating
racism.

‘limes and locations for Dance In My Shoes events will be posted
throughout the College. @
