The Citizen, Wednesday, Nt:lvembet 1: 1978·:. 2A Great Sense Of Achievement By PAUL GALLAGHER, Principal, CAPILANO COLLEGE Anniversaries are normally times for reminiscing for looking back. On the occasion of our lOth anniversary, Capilano people have been looking back with pride and a legitimate sense of achievement. From a very modest beginning in West Vancouver, the college is now reaching out to several parts of the North Shore, to Howe Sound and to the Sechelt Peninsula. From a very limited range of educational offerings in 1968, Capilano is now truly comprehensive in its programs and services - and becoming more so. From a budding college with a limited reputation, Capilano now takes its place as a full member of the complex network of B.C. colleges and provincial institutes and as a prominent member of the Canadian post secondary educational community. .Ten years is a brief time in the life of any institution, but Capilano's first 10 have been particularly active, frequently stormy, but always energetic and committed to community educational service. Most institutions face the problem of becoming too set in their ways too quickly. Capilano , however, has retained a spirit of change to meet changing educational needs, changing community patterns and changing availability of resources. At the same time , ·the college has remained steadfast in its commitment to several principles : the maintenance and enhancement of quality in all its educational endeavours, the provision of TEMPORARY QUARTERS flooded in 1970 . at first 'campus' - West Vancouver Secondary School.

Their common characteristic is a personal desire to develop their talents in an intellectually or professionally stimulating environment. By 1988-89, the number of Capilano people will probably be much larger and drawn from a much larger region - but the common characteristic will remain. Capilano College has tried to be a 'community' college in the best sense of that term and it is in the process of becoming one. In partnership with other educational agencies of the region, it hopes to provide for all residents of its region educational service second to none. In the next 10 years , Capilano should become truly a college of its community, a college of continuing education, a college for lifelong learners. _ THE TOWER houses art, retail fashion, early childhood education courses, as well as purchasing, accounting and some administrative offices, study areas and lounges.

Retail Fashion World Beckons Cap Students The Retail Fashion program, as it now is offered , began as an independent career program at Capilano College in 1973. At that time the students met in a variety of temporary spaces. The Sunday school rooms at Highlands United Church echoed with upbeat music used for Keep Fit classes and reflected the colour slides of a history of costume. Smells from the chemicals used in the textile course occasionally wafted into the church corridors. The classes were soon moved into what had been the student lounge and library in a large converted warehouse , already occupied to overflowiqg by the Art Department. Somehow, the Retail Fashion program was squeezed into the more than super saturated building. In 1975, the portables were built on campus. The Retail Fashion Department laid claim to one classroom in the NC Building and moved its very portable equipment once more. With the opening of the South Campus Tower in 1976 the department at last had its own home. The studio on the second floor of the tower fulfilled all existing needs of the Retail Fashion program. During all this time , business went on 'as usual' for the students. No matter how difficult the physical surroundings, students contined to create garments, in- vestigate merchandising, Co-ordinator Hiliary Clark, take bookkeeping, write es- goes on a field trip - to San says, initiate merchandise Francisco, Los Angeles or displays and go forth each Seattle - where experts in Friday and Saturday to work the field give lectures, lead in one of the local fashion field trips and show their stores . . designs.

Difficulties Overcome ART AT CAP (1973 - 1978) By TED KINGAN When I joined the college in 1973 as Art Co-ordinator, the Art Program was still located in the Welch Street facilities, which consisted of five instructional areas jammed into some 7,500 square feet of rented warehouse space. By 1974 the Art Program had grown to 400 students ( 100 full time, 300 part time) and about 20 instr uctors and support staff. We were cramped, to say the least. One studio, for instance , was rapidly transformed on a regular basis into facilities for painting, life drawing, fabric printing and print making rather like a set in an extended play , in which students and faculty were the actors and stage hands! The Art Centre on Welch Street was open seven days a week in order to squeeze in as much studio time as possible and activities spilled out onto the loading bay at the rear. Somehow we mana ged to run a full program; despite extremely difficult conditions, and the students certainly learned to be adaptable! Following an intensive ( W.
