Be a Hero—Give the Gift of Blood

The Canadian Red Cross Society is hoping to collect 105
units of blood at the blood donor clinic at Capilano College
on Thursday, Feb. 7. The clinic, located in the N Building
Student Lounge, will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The Red Cross must collect 700 units of blood every
business day to meet the needs of patients throughout British
Columbia. Every 20 seconds, someone in Canada needs a
blood transfusion, and it is estimated that 60 per cent of
Canadians will require a transfusion in their lifetime.

Thanks to volunteer blood donors, Canadians receive all
the blood they need free of charge—but the Red Cross needs
more donors. Of the estimated 35 per cent of Canadians
eligible to donate, less than six per cent actually do.

Donating blood is a simple and safe procedure that takes
about an hour, with a lifesaving result. If you are in good
health, 17 years of age or older, weigh more than 100 pounds
and are not on any medication, you are probably eligible to
donate blood. If you are unsure of your eligibility, call the
Red Cross Nursing Department at 879-7551. Be sure to have
a substantial meal within four hours prior to donating.

Ministry Brief

Former Capilano College President Paul Gallagher has been
chosen to guide a major adult human resource development
project.

“Mr. Gallagher’s broad experience and personal
commitment to post-secondary education make him the ideal
choice for the project,” said Bruce Strachan, Advanced
Education, Training and Technology Minister.

The ministry appointed Gallagher to the position for two
years. The project will promote discussion between businesses,
the educational system and labor to determine the best ways to
train people for jobs that help B.C.’s economy.

We Apologize

apologies to Dr. Matthew Speier for misspelling his name on a

Speier, who teaches sociology, will share his insights on the war
as a symposium panelist.
