Dear Student:

Students appear to be un-
der the impression that the
role of the Douglas College
Multi Campus Council is
soleley to provide recrea-
tional activities for the en-
joyment of our membership.

This is only a minor portion|

of the Council’s responsi-
bilites. Students sit on al-
most every committee that

governs the administrative .

policies of Douglas College.
We sit and vote on a panel
that discusses and rules on
student grievances against
instructors, and we become
involved at a Provincial level
with all matters concerning
students and education. _

This is only a brief outline
of the responsibilities of the
Douglas College Multi Cam-
pus Council. Without input
and help from you, we will
cease to exist.

Presently, out of a fifteen,

positions are filled.Durin
the upcoming elections,
urge you to seek nomination
for office. With a full coun-
cil, Douglas can take an|
active role in helping form a
better educational facility,
Without your help and over-
all Support we become mer-
ely a recreational director.
