All-College Forum

Don’t miss this important forum on Capilano Col-
lege’s future role in the post-secondary education sys-
tem. Recent decisions to establish several university-
colleges and additional universities outside the Lower
Mainland have inspired this second look at Cap’s
Mission and Goals. The deans believe that in order to
compete effectively for the scarce financial resources
that will become available, Capilano must carve out a
unique niche for itself.

Some suggestions offered include making Cap a
degree-granting institution specializing in unique degree
programs, developing an interdisciplinary degree in
Liberal Arts, and/or expanding on our post-baccalaure-
ate and post-diploma programs. Frank Gelin, Dean of
Academic Studies and current chair of the Committee of
Deans says, “The outcome of deliberations on these
matters will have profound implications for long-term
development of our college, and I hope that we have good
turnouts at our forums.”

There will be two forums to accommodate diverse
schedules. The first will be held Thursday, November 14
in Room M101 from 12:30 - 2:30 p.m., and the same
issues will be discussed Friday, November 15 in Room
H501 from 1 to 3 p.m.
