a number of elements for this national conference. The B. C.
Colleges are hosting Collepe Canada 75 and will be active in the
planning. The Lower “‘ainland Colleges, including B.C.1I.T., will
be most immediately involved in the management of the conference
because of their proximity and the resources that thev will have
to supply. You should not be surprised if any one of you is asked
by George Wootton, who will be the conference chairman, to parti--
cinate in one of the committees involved with the planning as will
be other faculty members in other colleges. You need not wait to
be asked. You could volunteer for anv one of the four committees.
namely, Social, Program. Publicity or Logistics. Vancouver

Committee, Capilano College will find a chairnerson for the Social
Committee, B.C.1I.T. will coerce someone to chair the Logistics
Committee and Douslas College will seek out a chairperson for the
Program Committee.

students, faculty, council members and administration personnel,
esnecially on Program Committee, which will also include someone
from all of the colleges to make this committee representative of
the whole province. The chairnersons of these four committees
will be part of the Conference Steering Grouv which will be the
major decision-making and co-ordinating body. George Wootton is
