As you may already know, we have a new
position in the College and a new person
to fill it. Mr. Ruben Benmergui is now the
Director of Personnel Relations and will
be here to take the job on August 5. Jim

is the Human Resources
Administrator, reporting to the Director
who reports to the Principal. Now to the
more interesting bits. Mr. Benmergui js

Now, about courses (remember what those
are?) -- there are a few going on through
August, quite a few. It's August Countdown
time and although most of the workshops
are for new students, a few are of inter-
est to other people as well. Tours of the
campus, the health services, the library,
the fitness centre, and so on can be in-
quired about through the appropriate local
as can other workshops ‘being held by the
Learning Assistance Centre and the Women's
Resource Centre. Two upcoming courses that
sound interesting are the Money Management
workshop on budgeting, credit, loans and
related topics (call Financial Aid for
info) and 'Women as Friends'', two sections
of which will be run by the WRC. ''Friends"!
will explore the barriers that prevent wo-
men from creating friendships with each
other. Most of these courses will be tak-
ing place very soon, don't delay. All the
August Countdown courses are free.

Dillon, meanwhile,

fore he arrives.

Just yesterday a little girl named Mission
watched so much TV that she literally ov-
erdosed and had to be rushed to the hospi-
tal. Relax. This isn't real--it's part of
the Cap Summerplayers! production ''Plugged
In! which they've been performing free in
locations throughout the Lower Mainland.
"Plugged In'! was written and produced by
the Players to deal with children = and
their relationship to T.V. The story cen-
ters around Mission's struggle to overcome
her T.V. obsession in favour of reading,
friendship, and the development of her im-
agination. If you're interested either in
finding out their schedule of performances
or booking the play, call the Company at
local 218. Or, if you're out at the PNE
this year you can catch them in an outdoor
theatre at noon and 1:55 August 21 and 23.
They hope it doesn't rain.

Getting into Journalism, a course for peo-
ple interested in the subject, whether or
not career oriented, has already been run

Bureau is running the course twice again.
Including lectures, field work, analysis
and written submissions, the course has
just one pre-requisite--typing speed of at
least 30 wpm. Getting into Journalism runs
Monday to Friday from 10 am to 4:30pm with
some evening field trips and start dates
are August 11 and 18. The fee is $80, un-
less, of course, you qualify for a waiver
