Exchange in La Belle Province

College de L’Outaouais in Hull, Quebec is opening its doors to
employees of Douglas College.

“The first employee group to benefit from this exchange opportunity
will be staff,” says Eugene Hrushowy, Douglas College’s Exchange Co-or-
dinator.

This is only the first step according to Hrushowy, as L’'Outaouais is
willing to facilitate exchanges to France and Nicaragua in exchange for
Douglas College’s Asia Pacific points of contact.

Staff who are interested in this first two-month exchange should at-
tend an information meeting to occur on Wednesday, May 8th in Room
4702, opposite the Switchboard at 1200 or at 1300 hours. @

Work-Study

Each year, Douglas College is allocated a Work-Study budget from the
Ministry of Advanced Education and Job Training. The Work-Study Pro-
gram provides part-time employment (5 to 15 hours per week) to full-
time students. Students may be employed at Douglas College, or
off-campus with a non-profit organization.

Students must qualify on the basis of financial need. Eligibility is
determined by the Student Finance and Placement Office, after the assess-
ment of each student’s Canada Student Loan/ B.C. Student Loan and the
information provided on the Work-Study application form. Students
may work between 50 and 150 hours per semester depending upon their
assessed need.

At this time, we would like to ask for project submissions from inter-
ested College personnel. We are looking for one-time (non-repeating)
projects that will be in addition to the normal on-going activities of the
department. The projects should provide students with opportunities to
develop career-related skills.

Work-Study application forms are available at the Student Placement
Office, Room 2710. The deadline to submit Work-Study Project Applica-
tions for the SUMMER, 1991 Semester is WEDNESDAY, MAY 1st,
