work is neither textile nor painting but a

Kobylansky honoured

As well as being College Week, November 17
to 21 is Canada Music Week, and Karl
Kobylansky, Music Department, is one of a
small number of Canadian composers being
honoured. On Monday, November 17
Kobylansky's Elegy for John will be
performed at the UBC Canadian Music
Festival at 12:30 pm. Since his nomination
for a Genie for best original musical
score for a motion picture in 1984, Karl
has composed and had performed a number of
pieces.

Concerts moved to spring

Among the events that were casualties of
the strike were a couple of the Music
department's Friday noon concerts. But, do
not despair! The concerts that were missed
are being rescheduled for the spring term.
There is also the possibility that the
last event in the series, a concert by the
Deep Cove Chamber Soloists String Quartet,
which was scheduled for Friday, November
28, will still be held—the Informer is
eagerly awaiting confirmation from the
Music faculty (hint, hint, hint).

Winter Games for Blues?

The Blues basketball team was involved
this weekend in a qualifying tournament
for the Canada Winter Games held at
Douglas College. Dougias, Cap, VCC, and
the Richmond Selects (?) were competing,
and the winners will represent B.C. at the
Games in Nova Scotia in February. Results

Informer editor gripes

It is regrettable that the College Week
package of ‘releases’ provided by the ACCC
leaves one not with enthusiasm for our
coliege system, but rather with the
overwhelming impression that even our
colleges are sinking into a morass of
techno-illiteracy. Brimming with hackneyed
phrases, slathered with overblown
adjectives and adverbs, and highlighted by
the occasional blatant misuse of the
English language, these releases have
gained the dubious distinction of being
the worst received by Information Services
in the last few years. Colleges, according
to these documents, are “expanding their
horizons", "a link in the chain", and
"assuring a better quality of life." We
"transcend national boundaries" on page 5
and “transcend geographical boundaries" on
page 6. We verb our nouns, too, as we
"directly impact Canadians". If you would
like to read sentences such as: "Canada's
community colieges bring a bracing
entrepreneurial spirit to the challenges
of Third World development, tailoring
their technological, vocational and
pedagogical expertise to the needs of
client states with the same responsive
ingenuity they demonstrate in their
Canadian home communities"; tune in to the
ACCC Coliege Week Canada package

available from Information Services.
