The following is a condensed version
of a letter sent to College President
Bill Day on January 18, 1993.

Dear Mr. Day;

| had the pleasure of attending the Gradu-
ation Exercises at Douglas College on Friday,
January 13. My purpose for writing is to
congratulate you and your faculty for the
tremendous success of the event. | have been
involved in three graduations...I have never
witnessed such unabashed happiness and
pride...

I noticed particularly how you and the charm-

ing lady - the Chair of the Board - greeted
each graduate as though each was the only
person graduating...

A happy ending; my daughter who graduated
in Therapeutic Recreation and is the mother
of four is now on the permanent full-time
staff of the Peace Arch Hospital and loving
every minute of her work.

Sincerely,

Doris C. Munroe

Gerry Della Mattia, Dean of Human
Resources and College Development,
received this letter on February 10,
1993 from the Life Line Society in
Burnaby.

Dear Mr. Della Mattia:

Please convey our sincere thanks to your
employees who designated a donation
through United Way to the programs at Life

Line Society. This past year our Transition
Houses sheltered over 300 women and chil-
dren in need of protection from violence.
We have embarked on an ambitious plan to
acquire longer term therapeutic residents for
particularly traumatized families. These resi-
dences are necessary to offer therapy to
children who are victims of physical and
sexual abuse, and women who are finding it
difficult to break free of the batterer. We
will need your ongoing support to help us
achieve our goals and I hope that we can
count on your contributions.

Yours truly,
Nancy Butler - Executive Director
