Last Thursday night in the
Vincent Massey auditorium
the Douglas College fall
graduation turned out to be
a success with 140 students
out of 204 showing up to
receive the awards.

The ceremoney started off
with a speech from Douglas
College president Bill Day.

In his speech, Day gave a

short history of Douglas

College and also criticized
the provincial government
strongly for moving to re-
duce provincial autonomy.
Day also commented on
the nursing program at
Douglas, saying ‘‘D.C. has
turned out many well train-
ed nurses. Today many are
employed at large hospitals
; throughout the Lower Main-
land such as the Royal

   

 

Columbian, St. Pauls and

Shaugnessey.

; Looking back at the nurs-

ing exams of the past, the
D.C. nurses scored very

well in comparison to the

rest of the province.’’
