Many are now off enjoying the last golden
days of summer, but some are still here on
campus, up to their ears in moving boxes
and last-minute logistics. It seems hard to
believe that in less than a month the new
David Lam Campus will open its doors to
a whole new generation of students. But
ready or not, September is just around the
corner. Best wishes to everyone moving
to Coquitlam this month, and see the rest
of you at the Open House October 18 and
19!

Griz Biz

Mary Whorley of the Registrar’s Office
has been busy this summer getting ready
for this month’s student orientation.
Rumour has it that she’s landed a record
catch of special prizes, trained the VPs to
flip a mean burger, and tamed some wild
Grizzlies for an outdoor hoop-shoot. For
details, just be on campus August 19-20.

Haida Gwaii

The CMO’s Kathy Para took in the misty
sights of Haida Gwaii, aka the Queen
Charlotte Islands, on a recent schooner

Highlights included kayaking every day,
exploring ancient village sites and
sampling a local delicacy—ive sea urchin
roe—tight out of the water.

Joyce reaps just rewards

 

Joyce Hunter of
Financial Aid
celebrated her 50th
birthday last month
surrounded by
admiring colleagues.
“Tf it’s true that we
don’t get older, we get
better,” said Patty
Lewis, “Then Joyce is
getting really, really
good.” Joyce took all
of the teasing in good
Jun, then promptly
went on vacation to
recover.
