Prof elected Pres

Bernardo Berdichewsky, Anthropology prof-
essor, has been elected President of the
B.C. Chapter of the Canadian Association

The Association, which was founded in 1969

people engaged in teaching and research in
those areas to contact each other and ex-
change inofrmation, to foster interest in
the area, and to promote closer links be-
tween academics in Canada working in Latin
America, the Caribbean and related fields.

Journal of Latin American Studies and a

ident at a Feb. 5 meeting at UBC -- other

VCC, U.Vice and SFU. Says Berdichewsky,
"The B.C. Chapter of CALACS want to raise
the consciousness of the Canadian people
about Latin America and the Third World,
and the awareness of the interrelationship
between the developed and developing na-

tions, and would like to provide reliable
information to. the Canadian public about
this subject." If you are interested, con-

tact him.
