FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIPS AND BURSARIES

The first scholarships and bursaries of
the Capilano College Foundation have
been awarded to students of the College.
Six $100 scholarships were awarded for
first semester academic achievement to
...full-time students in first year.
...Twelve $50 bursaries were also
awarded to first year students who
demonstrated need as well as academic
standing.

CRAYFISH RESEARCH

Under the stimulation of Keith Wade a
group of Capilano College biology
students have submitted an OFY
application for funds to conduct an on-
going summer study of the breeding
grounds of Crayfish in B.C. Dr. Wade
says the application has the active
support of the Federal Fisheries
department and the Nanaimo Marine
Biology Station. The project would
employ about 10 2nd year biology
students of the College to survey B.C.
coastal rivers for the elusive fish.
Part of the objective of the study would
be to determine whether sufficient
crayfish exist foracommercial industry
in this province.

From Robertson Davies' Fifth Business,
a novel about a Canadian schoolmaster:

"There were exercises to mark every
night, but I soon gained a professional
attitude toward these woeful
explorations of the caves of ignorance
and did not let them depress me."
