Comes a time for taking inventory: a plateau. And as we sift among
the "what-we-thought-we'd be's" and the "what-we-really are's,"” we
find many laughs, a number of big "wins," some losses, many aborted
dreams, watered plans and frayed commitments along with a slightly
worn and compromised point of reference - PLUS the names of
hundreds who have helped us this far up the mountain, etched deep in
the face of the rock we have sealed.

Twenty-five of those involved in Capilano College's past and present
have taken on themselves just such an informal inventory. They
range from business leaders and public officials, to educators,
students, staff, union organizers, administrators and the chairman of
the College Board. Their findings, both objective and subjective (as
memories and dreams sometimes tend to be), are printed here with
little or no editing, accompanied by photographs of the events and
people involved in ten years of building.

A.U.C.E. 4 hopes you will find this book both entertaining and
enlightening. Our thanks goes to those who have donated their time,
wit and talent and also to the College's 10th Anniversary Committee
for its financial support, all of which helped make this special issue of
the CAP COMMUNICATOR a reality.

We must remember, though, that this is merely an interim report on
an expedition with a near infinite struggle ahead. It is a long, long
way down to where we started, when we look back; and looking
forward, one "hell of a climb" up to where we say we want to go.
