Acting President’s

continued from page 13

Our Fall open registration,
August 28, 29 and 30, was extreme-
ly well organized. Over the course
of the three days, approximately
4000 students registered in open-
enrollment programs. Students in
closed programs (approximately
2300) registered by program, prior
to August 28. From September 4 to
14, an additional 450 students
registered, either for Weekend Col-
lege or as late registrants.

On September 12,a College As-
sembly — well attended by facul-
ty, staff, administration and Board
members — was held to announce
several organizational changes, to
review the priorities of each of the
Divisions for the year, and to wel-
come back Dr. Gerry Della Mattia
who has returned to the College
after spending two years working
in the United Arab Emirates.

On September 12, $32,725 was
received from the Ministry of Ad-
vanced Education, Training and
Technology, in support of the
“Literacy 2000“conference being
held at Douglas College in Oc-
tober. This grant matches the sum
previously received from the Na-
tional Literacy Secretariat of the
Secretary of State.

On September 13, Mr. Klassen,
as Sir James Douglas, was on hand
to greet Simon Fraser as he passed
by the New Westminster Quay. Sir
Jame’s presence, in honour of
Simon Fraser University’s 25th An-
niversary Celebration, was or-
ganized by Jacqueline Gresko, the
Chair of Arts and Humanities.

The Douglas College internal
United Way Campaign is now un-
derway, under the direction of
John McKendry and Mark Crozet.
This year’s campaign, using the
theme of participation”, should
raise at least $10,000. @
