Severe budget cuts in the operation of the Douglas
College Physical Plant will radically reduce the
standard of cleanliness and maintenance at all College |
sites this year, says President Bill Day. :

However, Day said with a little help from the
staff, faculty and students, same of the more obvious
trash will not become a major problem.

"If people can find the time to pick up the empty
cups and refuse in the cafeteria, instead of leaving
it behind on the tables, that would be a start,"
said Day.

"The maintenance staff is doing an excellent job
with the resources they have available," but because
of the priority for instruction at Douglas, something
had to be cut and that was Physical Plant, Day explained.

The full impact of the cuts has not been felt yet,
but with the students back on campus, the problem of
maintenance is expected to worsen.

"It's the little things which are going to count,
cleaning up after yourself, making sure the paper
towels find their way into garbage containers, that
sort of thing," Day said.
