Campus is idle free

The idle free campaign, held
January 12 at the North Vancouver
campus, was a successful first step

in helping to raise awareness about
the consequences of idling engines.
Students Jessica Windle, a first-year

student in Tourism Management,
won a single-zone adult monthly
Translink pass and Rachel White,
a second-year Geography student,
won the Translink mug. Signs have
been posted in specific areas on
campus to inform drivers that they
are in an idle free zone.

Family members of
former Canadian
military corporal
‘| Brant Bordewick
Campioni have
established a
permanent award
Jolene Bordewick with the Capilano
College Foundation in memory of
their nephew, son and husband.
Brant was a 34-year-old DHL
cargo airline pilot from North
Vancouver who was tragically
killed in a mid-air collision
between his cargo jet and a
Russian airliner carrying students
to a summer vacation in Spain.
The crash, which killed 71
people, occurred over Uberlingen,
Germany on July 1, 2002.
Evidence suggested that the
Russian airliner was misdirected
by Swiss Air Traffic Control,
which caused the Bashkirian
Airlines jet to dive into the tail
of the DHL plane. A crash-site
memorial has been established in
Germany as Brant’s plane diverted
to avoid crashing into the
German community below. The
Brant Bordewick Campioni Award
for Performance Excellence will
be presented to musical theatre
students in the spring of their
second year.
