‘< Attend the AGM

in the New West cafe
on Thursday

No SS elections

There will not be any
student society by-elections
this semester.

Due to lack of nomina-
tions all persons who filed
for any of the open posi-
tions were appointed to
those positions.

Glynis Shearer, formerly
a New Westminster rep, is
the new Vice-president: in-

_ ternal while Leslie Brown,
“Ron

Burnstad, Ron-Guy
Cowan, and Bill Carvell

were all appointed to New

Westminster Campus rep-
resentatives.

One person withdrew. an
application for New West-
minster rep.

New Westminster cam-
pus chairperson, Kevin
Hallgate, said the reason
why there were so few
applications when there
actually eleven positions
open is that people are too
lazy to read the signs put
up.

Hallgate alleges that
even if the student society

were to spend hundreds of
dollars advertising elec-
tions there would still not
be any more response.

‘Everyone sees the signs
but they ignore them,’’ said
Hallgate last Wednesday.

Apathy has been the
biggest hurdle — placed
before the student ‘society
this year and president Les
Brett is hoping that the
problem doesn’t surface at
the AGM to be held at New
Westminster this Thursday
at noon hour.
