14 Years Ago...

February 11, 1972

"Qur long efforts to get onto a permanent
site and into some permanent facilities
took a big leap forward last week with the
appointment of College architects.

The architectural consortium of Harrison,
Palsic and Kiss were appointed at a
Wednesday morning Council meeting. Their
general assignment, which is not yet
formally contracted, is understood to be
the entire physical development of the
College's three proposed sites and the
structures to be placed thereon. Their
first and immediate task will be to develop
site and new buildings at Inter-River for
this year. However, they cannot begin work
on that until the district school boards
have approved the emergency capital funds
to finance such a move.

All three architects have won major awards
for their work in the Vancouver area and
all three have been involved ina fair
amount of work on higher educational
building design. It should also be. noted
that they are all residents of the North
Shore and express a strong interest and
involvement in what happens with the
College."

SECOND CENTURY FUND COMMITTEE

"Council approved in principle a
resolution that the College ask the Howe
Sound school board to acquire a 1000 to
1500 acre parcel of land near Alice Lake
to be used jointly by the College and the
three College district school boards as a
future ecological-nature reserve for their
use. The College second century fund
committee, under the chairmanship of Keith
Wade, has been working on this project for
some time.

Brian pens memorable memo

From: Brian White
To: Louise Krohn
Re: Pins, thread, wire left in C303

For years I've tried to find the time

To send my memos out in rhyme,

But as our college gently ages

The chance for humour fades in stages!
So, you can imagine my delight

When I received, one stormy night

A bag of pins, wires, tacks, and thread
All stapled to a note, which read:
"Please try to keep our classroom clean
And don't leave messes on the scene,

I'm sure you know the public feels

Upset to have pins stuck in their heels!"
Now, all at once, I felt ashamed,

"Mea Culpa!" I'm to blame!

But, then again, I didn't know

We taught our Recs to knit and sew

And so I asked A. Vadja-Janyk

If she's the one that caused the panic,
But no; their Danskins come already made,
So Fitness had no charges laid!

' But, as Andree said, it came to pass

That Fitness found a Drama class
Was busy with costume design

And when class ended had no time
To clean poor classroom 303

And now I find it blamed—on we!
Alas, I know we've sinned before
And left our litter on the floor,
But not this time! So I relay
Your pins with thanks, and may I say
The costume class is a propos

To send your pins—so have a go!
