The Student Venture Loan program is an |
initiative of the Government of British
Columbia and the Government of Canada to
create employment and to provide business
experience for students. It offers interest
free loans, a maximum of $2000 per individual
business venture and $3000 per partnership
venture, to students who wish to plan and
operate their own small businesses.

Applications for the Student Venture Loan
Program are now available in the Student

Student Donations

While efforts to increase funding at
Douglas College have been a priority for
administrators over the past year and a
half, the student society has recently
taken the onus upon themselves to lend a
helping hand.

At the student's March 7 Annual General
Meeting, a motion was passed to donate
$12,500 of student activity money to the
Douglas College Student Trust fund.

The Student Society last year donated
$30,000 tothis fund which provides
scholarships and bursaries for students
in financial need. Douglas College is
hoping to raise $500,000 for the Student
Trust before next year.

Senate Approves Donation

On March 11, the student senate joined the
act and approved the donation of $750 for
the purchase of the fifth edition of the
ten volume Grove Dictionary of Music and
Musicians for the Douglas College library.

While the library currently has the more
comprehensive sixth edition of this refer-
ence work, this volume does not contain a
chapter on the important music and

musicians of the 19th Century, said
librarian Ralph Stanton.
Stanton also said the library is looking

at other methods for raising funds for
special purchases, and selected businesses
will be asked to assist in purchasing works
related to their fields.

Although the Douglas College library does
have a budget for material purchases,
Stanton says this funding is not sufficient
to cover every request made for new book oO
purchases made by the students.
