New social
committee
offers tax
break

he College ad hoc Social

Committee would like to thank
everyone who purchased raffle tickets
in December. Thanks to the generosity
of local businesses and individuals, we
were able to donate 100 per cent of the
funds raised to the North Shore
Christmas Bureau. We gave them a
cash donation of $1,211!

We were in a dilemma about what to
do with the tax receipt until we
unanimously agreed at a recent
committee meeting that we should hold
a special draw just for the receipt. Don
Kinloch, employee relations assistant,
volunteered to take charge of the draw,
and beginning February 2 he will be
visiting all departments with tickets in
hand. If you miss his visit, give him a

| i appy New Year! Most of our
staffing activity has been of a

temporary nature, filling positions for
the Registration and Bookstore rushes,
which is always an exciting time.

We have two new RFT Admission/
Registration assistants in Registration
this month —- Carlos Andrada, who
was previously helping out in the
Bookstore, and Viera Hamza, who had
temporary hires in Financial Services.
Lee Ederer is the new secretary,
reporting to the registrar, Itidal Sadek.
Lee is replacing Jeanne Classen, who
is retiring at the end of this month.
Good luck and congratulations to all!

We’ ve had a couple of resignations
in the last month. Joan Miniciello has
resigned from her Bookstore clerk I
position in the Bookstore, and Linda

Goch resigned from the Registration
department. Good luck to you both in
your future endeavors!

Wendy Dansie will be assuming the
temporary CECS assistant position in
Continuing Education and Contract
Services, helping Lynn Jest. As a
result we are posting for a temporary
replacement for Wendy in the Word
Processing Centre until she returns.

I would like to remind everyone that
the Personnel Services workshops are
still ongoing with subjects such as
conflict resolution, word processing
hints, and how to figure out the
College computer network. Dates and
times are listed on the brightly-colored
sheet in your mail. Please come and
check us out!

call at local 4979. Tickets will be
available for $1 each or three for $2 with
the draw taking place in the cafeteria on
February 13. The draw is open to all
College employees. Money collected will
be used to support future social events.

That’s not all! Those of us who
attended the Social Committee meeting
also agree that we wish to continue as a
committee. We have representation from
staff, faculty and administration, as well
as an exempt employee. We wish to
continue not only our fundraising efforts,
but also to promote College-wide social
activities with emphasis on the December
holiday party.

Please see next month’s /nformer for
information on what we have planned for
the coming months. If you are interested
in contributing your time to Social
Committee functions or would like to
pass on suggestions, please call Lauren
Mulholland, publicist in Contract
Services and Continuing Education, at
local 4907 or send an e-mail to:
