Ruth D'Hollander (Achievement Resource Centre)
is teaching the judges of B.C. what all students need to
know -- how to take notes. Ruth gave a seminar on the
topic at a conference for the judges last week in
Kelowna.

Cathy Storey (Financial Services) writes:

To all my friends at Capilano College,

I want to thank everyone who contributed to the
wonderful shower. Your generous gifts will come in very
handy. My many friends at the college will be missed,
but never forgotten. Montreal is only a plane ride away.
Thank you all again.

Love, Cathy

News from Outside:

Doug Loblaw, on leave from
the Business Management
Department, writes from his desk
at Equity Preservation Corporation:

Since I began my leave last S
June I have been very busy
learning about the wonderful world
of corporate finance and developing
new expertise in marketing limited
partnerships, mutual funds, and
public companies that trade on the
Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver
stock exchanges.

In 1988 we attended an international conference in
San Francisco where we presented an interactive audio/
visual show to the delegates. Presently, ’m preparing
four annual reports and developing several promotional
brochures for Canadian junior resource companies. We
are also beginning to market a new project in London,
England, called The Scholar Centre. This will be a
foreign student residence funded through Canadian,
American, and British interests.

It’s been an interesting year so far, and though I’m
busy for some time yet, all signs point to my return to
Capilano in September.

It seems no matter where I go in Vancouver, there
are Capilano Business Management graduates
everywhere — that’s a very rewarding and encouraging
discovery, and I’m proud to be part of it.

Keith Wade Named President
of VanDusen Gardens Assoc.

Dr. Keith Wade, Chairman of the Natural Sciences
Department, has been named president and chairman of
the board of governors of the Vancouver Botanical
Gardens Association. The Association serves as the fund
raising and planning organization behind the VanDusen
Gardens. Keith will serve a two year term, following
Michael Alexander of Loomis Armoured Car Services.

“I’m looking forward to the
next two years,” said Keith. “It
will be a challenge to follow
such a strong president, who
brought considerable vision
and business acumen to the
job.”

Our well-travelled biologist
(he has led study and plant
exploration trips to China,
Borneo, Sikkim, the Canadian |,
Arctic, the United Kingdom, §
and Europe) is the second
president from the North :
Shore and the first professional
botanist to head the
prestigious gardens association.

Keith's next trip will be to visit the botanical
gardens and southwestern tip of Ireland, where there
are some uncommon flora.

Keith, who also sits on the board of the Vancouver
Aquarium, has been involved with the VanDusen
Gardens from their beginnings. He worked on the
original planning guidelines before the board was
formed and the gardens opened in 1975. He has served
four years on the executive, the last two as first Vice-
President.
