A Pleasant Surprise

I was talking to an old acquaintance from
Maple Ridge last week. One of his children
who graduated from Secondary School was
unable, because of circumstances, to carry
on directly to university as planned. This
person had taken her first year of academic’)

studies at the Maple Ridge Centre, and is
currently attending the main campus at New
Westminster.

In summary, he had dropped by to tell me
that the family had been absolutely delight-
ed with the quality of education provided by
the College, and just as importantly, with
the quality of the social environment at
Douglas. What started out as a necessity |
became a desirable alternative. |

Too frequently, we are conscious of the
frustrations and criticisms implicit of
working in education. It is a pleasure to
share this affirmation of the value of our
work with those who make it happen - the
faculty and staff.

Heating System

The mechanical contractors are undertaking
a major alteration to our heating and air
conditioning machinery which, we believe,
will markedly improve the system. This
will involve periodic fluctuations in
temperature.

We believe that the inconvenience caused by
these fluctuations will be well within tol- |
erable limits, and will ultimately be worth
it. If marked difficulties occur, please,
let your supervisor know.

Bill Day.

(caustic, and clever, and sometimes
naughty) operatic masterpiece. If you
don't know this work, or it's cunning
construction, or it's historical signi-
ficance, or anything about the opera -
and if you find yourself holding tickets
to attend the VOA production - or even
if you were only toying with the idea of
