Judith Hall, Student Employment Advisor, and her work at the College were the focus of a story that filled page 7. A large photo of Judith graced the page. She gave tips on how to achieve success in the job market, emphasizing steps such as research, networking and setting realistic goals. “Empowering others with skills for life is the greatest thrill,” . she told the interviewer. By the way, Judith wants everyone to know that the Student Employment Centre has moved from M-125 to Financial Aid’s former location in the M Building (M- 120, M-119 and M-126a). The tel- ephone lines remain the same. The Department Coordinators for both ESL and English wish to amend an item printed in the last Informer. The item, which ran under the headline, “College People Make News Over Summer,” concerned a letter of congratulations from the Ministry of Advanced Education about the “Academic Study Skills for ESL Students” project. The curriculum project was developed and written by Melanie Fahlman-Reid, Lian Zhang and Nick Collins. Unfortunately, Melanie’s name was omitted from the ministry’s initial letter of congratula- tions. Look for more on this exciting ESL project in a future Informer. The Centre for Curriculum and Professional Development and the Ministry of Advanced Education, Training and Technology have sent their congratulations to Rosemary Coupe on the completion of a Writing Across the Curriculum project she initiated at the College. Bev Greene, former director of Public Relations, called the College recently during a holiday on Thetis Island. Since she left Cap in the spring of 1991, Bev and her husband Dave have been in Japan, working as English instructors. In addition to teaching university students, Bev teaches children in grades 5 and 6. She says Japanese school kids are far from the pictures of perfect obedience Canadians have been led to imagine. “Now I think elementary school teachers should be the highest paid teachers in the system,” she joked. Bev and Dave flew back to Japan last week. They plan to return to the Vancouver area in March. Joan Acosta, member of the ESL faculty and Editor of the Westcoast Reader, has received a host of con- gratulatory letters for editing the book Newcomers’ Guide to Resources and Services in British Columbia. The Victoria Times-Colonist says of the book: “It’s well-organized, the design is attractive and, as for the editing and writing—would that all government publications were this reader-friendly.” gil
