STUDENTS AIDING STUDENTS PROGRAM >

The Honourable Russell Fraser, Minister of Post-Secondary
Education, and the Honourable Terry Segarty, Minister of
Labour, today announced the formation of the “Students Aid-
ing Students” program.

The fund will provide Work-Study funding to post-secondary
students who wish to assist fellow students requiring support
either as a result of physical handicap or a language problem.

“We are aware of several British Columbia students who
need assistance for a variety of reasons to participate fully in
campus life,” said Mr. Fraser. “Iam pleased that we are able
to assist these students while at the same time providing
financial assistance and practicial training for other
students.”

“This is an excellent way to use funds allocated to the Work-
Study Program from Challenge '86,” added Mr. Segarty. “It
will provide support to many students who otherwise might
not be able to achieve their educational goals.”

Students interested in participating in the program should
contact their financial aid office on campus.
