PROPOSAL SUBMITTED BY BOB GALLACHER : TENTH ANNIVERSARY SYMPOSIA

April 17, 19 8

The following is a proposal for a series of ~mposia on topicalcontemporary issues that would be sponsored by Capilano College as part
of the college's tenth anniversary celebration. The symposia would have
a number of objectives:
1. to provide an educational forum whereby members of the public
would be introduced to the respective issues.
2. to provide Cap with considerable publicity both for its tenth
anniversary and for the college as a whole.
3. to provide a vehicle for college personnel to gain experience
in this type of forum and, as well, to gain further experience in
the area of publicity,
4. to provide A-V material which would become part of the college's
permanent A-V collection.
5. to provide an opportunity for college staff, faculty and students
to participate jointly in a major function that would add to
college pride and would demonstrate college interaction especially
with students.
Content and Focus:
In all eight symposia would be planned, each one at the end of the month.
The symposia would include topics on local issues (with special emphasis
on the North Shore), national issues (with relevance to the North Shore
and Vancouver areas) and universal issues (relevance to everyone). The
following is a list of possible topics and are presented to give an idea
of the kinds of issues that could be handled.
Possible topics:
{\

1. medical ethics: cloning, abortion, genetics, euthenasia.
guests: M.D., theologian, college staff or faculty or a student
from Capil a no.
2. Vancouver harbor: future development and public access.
guests: harbour representatives, North Shore mayor, college
staff or faculty and a student.
3. Native land claims:

4. Rapid transit:

guests:Justice Berger, Native Indian representative,
college staff or faculty and a student.

guests: consulting engineer, GVRD.spokesperson, college
staff or faculty and a student.

2.

5. Civil liberties: why are we losing them?
guests: B.C. Civil Liberties spokesperson, college staff
or faculty and a college student.
6, Media manipulation:

guests: media executive, CRTC official, college staff or
faculty and a college student.

7. Education:

classes down, costs rising:
guests: education, demographer,, college staff or faculty
and a college student.

B. The sociology of sport:

guests: Jim Taylor, Vancouver Sun, Erwin Swangard,
college staff or faculty and a college student.

Hence a combination of specialized outsiders and college representatives would
make up each panel. Hopefully, staff and faculty would be willing to participate
as panel members. Student participation would also be sought since it would add
to the entire format and major objective of the series. Morever, students
volunteering to participate could be given any help necessary in thei·r presentations.
Student participation is essential.
·
Format
Each symposium would be in panel form. Guests would be encouraged to bring
any audio-visual materials they wished to increase their effectiveness. A
typical symposium may look like this:
Introduction to topic.and introduction of guests
Talks by panel members
Coffee break
Question and answers

5 minutes
80 minutes
15 minutes
30 minutes

Pub 1i city
A significant part of the project would be directed to publicity. This
cou.l d take two forms, introducing the series as a who 1e and the fo 11 ow-up
month-by-month publicity. Hence, if the initial symposium is scheduled for
late September, the publicity would have to be finalized by mid-August.
Areas of publicity that would be concentrated upon are:
A. External-Media
1. non print
a. radio appearances of guests, college personnel, callboard
announcements, spot ads.
·
b. television appearances of guests and college personnel.
2. print
a. articles in large daily papers.
b. articles in North Shore and Vancouver weekly locals.
c. ads in Sun and Province.
d. magazines, e.g• Vancouver, Vancouver Calendar.

3.

B. Internal
a. posters
b. college student newspaper
c. announcements to staff and faculty
One possibility regarding television would be to approach a local TV station
(CKYU or CHAN ?) to live tape the symposia as part of its local coverage. On
a once per month basis this may be possible especially considering the name"
guests
we may attract as well as the unique student! participation component.
.

Personnel Duties
A. College faculty and staff a. select an ad hoc committee to discuss possible topics, guests and ways
of increasing publicity.
b. participate in symposia through volunteering panel members and of

f. moderate each panel.
g. write an evaluation,send to Tenth Anniversar~ Committee at the series'

Costs
Director's salary - 1 section per term.
Ads - spot adds on radio and Sun and Province ads. The latter could
be part of larger Capilano College Tapes - video and audio.
Coffee
Posters
Total costs shou~d be under $6000
We would have to depend on the good graces of guests to participate grati~
as honoraria would be very expensive for same.

Selection of 8 evenings.

Benefits

Report sent to Tenth Anniversary Committee.

Publicity out each month.

to Capilano

Essentially five benefits caul d be rea 11 zed by Cap11 ano .
. 1. pull college personne) together to stimulate pride and cohesiveness.
2. benefit of student participation.
3. publicity for college.
4. college involvement by students and college personnel - bringing all
college together.
5. experience gained by all college participants.
As we can see this would be an ambitious project and one that would require significant
time, energy and commitment by those involved. It could be the major project in the
anniversary celebration and, as mentioned above, bring the college considerable benefits.
The symposia would have to be well planned and well organized. Publicity must be extensive
and effective. In a word, the project would have to be of professional quality if it is
to be undertaken. Anything less would be a waste of time.

from: R.R. Rennie, Science Division Chairperson
to: P. Gallagher, Principal
re:

lOth Anniversary Celebrations

An ad hoc subcommittee within the Natural Science Division was convened to
recommend lOth Anniversary projects for our division. Their recommendations
(not prioritized) are:
·
1.

Science Division Lecture Series
It is proposed that faculty members within our div:l.si.on present interesting public lect.ures on their areas of expertise. \.Je feel that this would
raise the College's image in the public's mind, and provide a service to
the community. Ten talks would be organized on a one per month basis
with an expected total cost of $1,000 (series brochure, advertising and
coffee).

2.

Science Project Competition for High School Students .
The committee also proposed a prize-oriented competition for home built
science projects. This project would require advertising and communication with the high schools - two side effects that will benefit the
college.
Basically, guidelines would be circulated to the high schools in the Fall
with an on-campus competition in the Spring. Promotion and prizes should
cost about $1,000. If we subsidize the cost of student materials then
another $1,000 should be budgeted. (The latter $1,000 is not essential.)

consolation and championship finals on Saturday night.

..

- 2 -

- Itans 1 and 2 could be paid for out of the Athletics budget since hosting
a tournament would constitute not having to travel to one elsewhere at
t:hnt time of the year.
- Estimated revenue from the gate is $200.00 for tournament tickets sold &t
$2.00 each.
- Costs could be further offset by assessing non-travelling team an entry fee.
Benefits of Hosting a Tburnament:
A tournament with the above format would generate a good deal of positive
publicity for the College. Local newspapers will definitely give us good
coverage of the event, and there is an excellent chance that CKVU-T. V. Sports
will do video tape highlights on their evening sports show.
In addition, we plan to place printed posters advertising the tourney, in
windows of North Shore businesses which will further focus public attention
on our institution.

Dr. Paul Gallagher
Principal
Capilano College
Dear Dr. Gallagher:
In reply to your memorandum of 2 February 1978 wherein you ask for

by staff members, past and present. To include
reports on all aspects of college activity since

- 2 It is anticipated (and there is already evidence to support this
idea) that a great deal of resenrch and preparation of the dummy issue will
or can be commenced immediately by members of AUCE #4.
Therefore, this committee, on behalf of the members of AUCE #4,
requests that the sum of Five Hundred Dollars be allocated as a special budget
to partially cover the cost of producing this Anniversary issue of THE CAP
COMMUNICATOR.
In closing, the members of the committee are unanimous in their
enthusiasm for this Special Issue and are grateful for the opportunity to
produce a publication that will reflect the results of ten years of growing
up as a mature and responsible post-secondary institution.
Respectfully submitted
