SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY PRESENTS OPEN HOUSE '85

It seems like only yesterday, but it's been almost 20 years
since the doors first opened at Simon Fraser University. And
the university is holding Open House '85 on Saturday, March
16th and Sunday, March 17th to celebrate two decades of growth
and development at the campus on top of Burnaby Mountain.

Everything from skydiving to probing the mysteries of the
microchip will be featured at this year's Open House.

Thrill to the chemistry Magic Show as chemistry professors
mix up an entertaining show of explosions, strange glowing objects
and odorous delights.

Find out what kind of shape you're in by taking the
kinesiology fitness test and if you don't quite measure up take
part in a fitness workout or swim a few quick laps in the pool --
all free of course!

Or, if you just care to browse, take in the Latin American
handicraft display, browse through the museum of archaeology
or visit the art gallery.

Connoisseurs of wine can take part in the wine tasting
market-research program put on by business administration students.

 

And if saving money sounds good to you, take advantage of the
bargains offered at the giant Garage Sale in the Chancellors'
Gymnasium beginning at 8:30 a.m. Sunday, March 17th. Thousands
of items including sports equipment, books, clothing, toys and
office equipment will be on sale with all proceeds going to
SFU daycare, athletics and student bursaries.

We'll see you at SFU March 16th and 17th. Doors are open
from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day.

There's plenty of fun and plenty of free parking waiting
for you at SFU!

Come explore your campus.
