into the Long Term Care field, think
again. L.T.C. facilities are eager and
anxious to hire men because many of their
male patients prefer, for obvious reasons,
to have a man taking care of them. For
that reason Terry Adler andher crew are
specifically encouraging men to apply for
their next term which starts in September
(call Terry for info). But, back to our
current graduating class, the persons
involved are: CARLOS BULALAKAW, CAROL
BUMSTEAD, MILLICENT KIRKPATRICK, GISELA
KLOTZ, VALERIE KRIEGER, RUPERTA LANGIT,
TRACY McCOMBER, ROSWITHA NIELSEN, AISA
NILLIS, MARY O'NEILL, MARIE PANTELIS,
KERRY PARHAR, AMARJIT PARHAR, DARLENE
PETERSON, BETTY POUSTIE, ISABELLA RIVIERE,
MEHMOODA SACHOO, and HELEN TAYO.
Congratulations all, and also a thank-you
to their nursing supervisors and
administrators for making it possible for
them to take this program. Also graduating
this week, are the students from the Long
Term Care/Homemaker program in Mt. Currie.
Those students, who started in November,
spent their last five weeks living in
North Van. and doing their practicum in
local facilities, visiting Lions Gate and
working at the college. Since most of the
students have families and children, their
studies required the cooperation of the
entire Mt. Currie community. Some of the
graduates will be looking for jobs in the
lower mainland, while others are being
hired by the Mt. Currie band to work there
with elders. The band is working on a new
housing development in which there will be
a residence for elders. Finally, if you
know of anyone who might be interested in
a career in Long Term Care, there is an
information meeting for the fall program
being held Tuesday April 12 from 7-9 pm in
the Health Lab, H204. There will also be

a repeat of the Upgrading program for
people already working in the field in
Spring 1984. For more information contact
Terry Adler. And once again,
congratulations to all our graduates and
best of luck outin the field.

RM show smash hit

More congratulations, this time to the
Retail Management students whose fashion
show, Looking West, was a sell-out and an
unqualified success. Clothing loaned by
well-known Vancouver manufacturers and
designers was modelled mainly by RM
students and prominent Vancouverites such
as Constantine Pappas of the world
renowned Pappas furs and Carol Chanin,
creator of avante garde jewelry sold
throughout North America were in the
