Studies Program, and the identif-
ication of program "packages"
relating to University Transfer.

Two Statements of Intent have
been dispatched to the Ministry,
subject to future modification
and ratification by the Douglas
College Board. These are, the
Engineering Technology Program,
which the Board has already been
acquainted with, and also a new
Stagecraft Technology proposal.
I believe that both of these
proposals will be greeted with
enthusiasm by the Board when
they are presented to the Board
in due course for final approval.

Summer School is being scheduled
at this time. A separate more
detailed statement has been
made to the Board by a separate
document.

Three Management Workshops have
been scheduled for the next six
weeks. One workshop is on Budget
Processes, another on the College
Annual Administrative Cycle of
Activities, and a third is on the
Nature of Community Programs in
Douglas College, as contrasted to
other College activities. These
Workshops are all led by our own
personnel, and constitute a cont-
inuing development activity aimed
primarily at our management
personnel.

Mr. D. McEachern, Director of Social
Services and Allied Health, led a
workshop last week on the Institutional
Self-Study Processes, that has
engendered a special administrative
meeting, which will be led by Mr. G.
DellaMattia on research projects to

be undertaken next year.

Internal Matters - Labour Relations

Two grievances have been received from
the Faculty Association over the past
month. Both are, I believe, well on
their way to resolution.

The Faculty Association, the B.C.G.E.U.,
and the Student Society have all been
very helpful in advising me regarding
the Governance System which is being
reviewed by the Board tonight. It is

a pleasure to acknowledge this
assistance.

Mr. Gordon Gilgan and Mr. Ed Redmond
have been appointed as administrative
representatives on the joint Douglas
College/Kwantlen College Negotiating
Team.

With the concurrence and support of

the B.C.G.E.U., we have established

a Staff Advisory Committee on staff
development, who will advise Mr. Robert
Sawka or Mr. Cal Barber of our Personnel
Office on the nature and content of a
program of staff development for the
College. The College administration is
looking forward to participating
actively in this program.

Internal Matters - General

Since the last Board Meeting, the Fall
Graduation has occurred. It was a well
organized and successful event. We
appreciated the attendance of Mrs. Casher
and Mr. Murnane on behalf of the College
Board.

A very pleasant Hallowe'en Party

for staff, faculty and administration
was held, and a Christmas Party is
now being planned.

A very successful Pub Night was
held, sponsored by the Student
Society on behalf of the United
Way Campaign. Members of the
College administration and faculty
assisted at the Pub Night in order
to reduce the overhead expenses.
The Pub Night yielded over $600.00
for the United Way, and a very happy
side benefit was increased commun-
ication between the students and
College personnel. We expect that
similar events will be occurring
in the future.
