ASE reunion

Submitted by Terry Byrnes

Last March, the Adult Special
Education department at Capilano
College held its first reunion for
past students and by all accounts
the day was a great success. The
event was tied in with the annual
learners’ event, which is organized
by Alternative Career Training
program instructor, Laverne
Thompson. The theme was
Connections and ACTP students
from the past 15 years were
invited to participate. It was an
opportunity for former students to
share with current learners their
experiences since leaving the
College, and to provide them with
helpful advice.

The International Student Centre’s
Ursel Brown (centre) was recognized for
outstanding customer relations at the
2003 Employee Recognition event.

A special day

Sunshine and laughter were
additions to the menu of the 2003
employee recognition event held at
the North Vancouver campus on
Wednesday, April 30. Master of
ceremonies, James Cooke, kept the
humour and the pace flowing while
guests enjoyed the uplifting sounds
of a jazz combo comprised of Jazz
Studies students. They were also
treated to a delicious lunch
prepared by Chartwells, and a
Talking to Americans-type video
produced by yours truly (Shelley
Kean) and taped by online
technician and event photographer,
Ken Barbour. As well, everyone
received a token of appreciation.
