Neo:

Ahhhh, November. Crisp winds,

soggy leaves, and the smell of

chimneys warming up for

winter. And right in the middle

of it all. . . more elections!

On Saturday, November 16,

every city and district in the province will
hit the polls to elect those who will
govern our day-to-day lives for the next
three years. So on your way to work this
month, don’t just curse those puddle-
filled potholes or bothersome parking
bylaws. You can make a difference where
you live: Pick your best candidates, and
vote.

Physical Reaction

Way to go, CMO

Although we may be accused of blowing our own horn, we CMOers
(especially Marketing Coordinator Bruce Livingstone and Graphic
Designer Alan Loo) are pleased to announce that our spring 1996
recruitment campaign has won a National Council for Marketing and
Public Relations gold medallion. So what was key to winning for the
best print ad series in the Pacific Northwest? According to the
NCMPR, “The writing, graphics and layout are very good. It’s eye
catching and gets the message out.” The economical but dramatic black
and white ads were produced entirely in-house, from concept, writing, and
photography (using Theatre students as models) to design.
