Welcome to the Inside Zone once again. This is what we’ve pick- ed up over the past couple of weeks, but we know there’s more out there, so let us know at 527-5325. Her place in the sun... Graphic Designer Marilyn Attwood returned to the Public In- formation Office after a two month summer leave of absence. After 14 years at Douglas, she found it ex- tremely difficult to stay at home and lie in the sun with nothing to do but read and sleep. But that feeling of anxiety wore off after a couple of weeks, and she got into some serious relaxing. She also spent a lot of time with her 14-year-old son Waylon. Trendsetters... Who’s the guy down in IMS with the US Marine haircut? It’s Manager Rob Linschoten, without the trademark ponytail. He’s had one since at least the second time ponytails became trendy, but he decided to cut it off. Maybe he’s one step ahead of the next trend. Prophylactic medicine... The Student Society got smart this year. They decided to tape condoms to the safe sex handouts, rather than stapling them. INSIDE DOUGLAS COLLEGE / September 17, 1997 Athens or bust... Liz Wilson bought a ticket in a raffle, and won a free ticket anywhere Air Canada flies. She says Greece sounds good, so sometime this fall she’ll be hanging out at the Acropolis sipping ouzo and nibbling pita bread. By the way, Liz is now the permanent Women’s Centre Coordinator. Cruising... Jean Easton tells us she’s gone cruising in the Carribean. She’s also stopping off at Disney World. We’re hoping she brings back Mouse- keteer hats for all of us. Fossils fuel student optimism. . . DC Foundation Executive Presi- dent Mark Crozet has picked a name for his fourth-floor intramural futsal (indoor soccer) team that could cut students to the bone. The squad of mostly over - 30s types, which includes Bill Bell, Trish Angus, Peter Sanderson, Brad Barber and Bob Cowin, will be dubbed the Fourth Floor Fossils. “We don’t intend to lose, but any student team which loses to the Fossils will probably be ashamed of themselves,” says coach Crozet. “We might try for a perfect winless record.” A chip off the old block... Computer Information Systems Instructor Barbara Allen is expect- ing a child sometime in February. The Business Department is having a lottery to guess the date, so some- one will win a little bundle of cash off Barbara’s little bundle of joy. Congratulations! After two years in the position, Wendy Watt is now the permanent Departmental Assistant in Student Services. Congratulations also go out to Devona Davies, hired for the new position of Purchasing Supervisor. Sailing, sailing... English Instructor Bill Main has bought a boat, and of course he named it “Over The Bounding Main”. Fancy meeting you here... Developmental Education instruc- tor Hilary Cheung, winner of an Asia Pacific Scholarship, went to Hong Kong last May and is doing very well. How do we know? Marian Justus (formerly Hill), Cooperative Education Coor- dinator, recently returned from the World Conference on Cooperative Education in Hong Kong. They got together in Kowloon. And finaily... Why were Venetian blinds invented? Because without them, it would be curtains for all of us.
