Bank’s Generosity to Benefit
Students in All Programs at
Capilano College

rew Hockin, vice president and

manager of the Hongkong Bank of
Canada, North Vancouver branch, and
Susan Dujmovic, manager of the
HKBC West Vancouver branch,
presented a cheque for $50,000 on
Thursday, January 16 to Dr. Greg Lee,
president of Capilano College and
Allan Taylor, a member of the College
Foundation Board. The funds will be
used to assist Capilano College students
with good academic performance, as
well as financial need, to continue their
studies.

“This gift is very generous,” says
Randi Duke, executive director of the
Capilano College Foundation,
“especially because the Hongkong

Bank of Canada is allowing the College
to decide where to allocate the funds.
This is the first gift of this size that we
have received to support our students
that is not restricted to a particular area.
It is available to all programs at Capilano
College.”

Adding to the significance of the
contribution is the fact that it is eligible
for matching through the provincial
government’s Matching Endowment
Program for Scholarships and Bursaries.
“This will create a $100,000 fund, which
will help a lot of students in the coming
years,” Randi explains. “It is part of our
ongoing campaign to obtain permanent
awards and equipment for Capilano
College.”

Personnel
Note

Hee New Year to all! I hope
everyone is settled in your new
offices in the Birch building. If you
get a chance walk about and
familiarize yourself with who is
where. Personnel is in Birch building,
room 422 and Employee Relations is
located down the hall in room 441,

We have had a busy start to 1997.
Some active competitions include: the
Advising supervisor, an on-line
technician in the Media Resources
area, and the divisional assistant and
EPS assistant positions in Labour
Studies, due to Alma Relkie taking a
six month leave of absence. Employee
Relations is handling the filling of the
positions of manager of Financial
Reporting and the director of |
Buildings and Grounds. Brenda
Briscoe is the successful candidate for
the TPT clerk typist IV position in
Institutional Based Training (IBT) and
Wendy Dansie is the successful
candidate for the RFT word
processing operator.

Personnel is sorting out the issue of
bulletin boards and how they relate to
both staff and faculty postings within
the College. Since so many of us are
now under one roof, we feel there
should be standardized areas for them.
If you or your area feels it should post
staff and faculty postings, please
contact us and we will decide on the
10 best locations for postings within
the Birch building. We also need input
from the other buildings too, so please
let us know where you feel these
boards should be. Call Personnel at
local 2098 or local 4928.
