STUDENT'S
GET
NEW
COUNCIL
By
Patricia
Davis
-For
those
that
didn't
see
the
notice
on
the
S.A.
office
window,
or
hear
via
the
grapevine,
the
Student
Association
has
newly
elected
officers
are
as
follows:
President:
Shawn
Petriw
Vice
President:
Ian
Forster
Sports
and
Clubs:
Dave
Ledinski
External
Officer:
Denise
Joli
Personally,
I
was
surprised
at
the
election
of
the
last
two
candidates
as
neither
appeared
at
the
Candidates
Forum.
However,
for
those
that
won
their
election,
congratulations.
For
those
that
participated
and
didn't
win-
at
least
you
tried
and
are
to
be
commended
for
your
interest.
-It
was
unfortunate
that
candidates'
speeches
had
to
complete
with
the
music
from
Academy
II.
It
was
also
unfortunate
that
Rules
of
Order
were
nonexistent,
and
"baiting"
between
candidates
took
up
time
that
could
have
been
more
profitably
spent
in
answering
questions
from
the
floor.
-"Mature"
students
(and
by
"mature"
I'm
sure
they
meant
the
"oldies"
vs.
the
"youngies")
were
showing
a
lack
of
concerncommitment
to
the
college.
This
came
up
as
a
rebuttal
of
a
question
from
the
floor
as
to
what
a
particular
candidate
was
going
to
do
for
the
multitude
of
them.
In
a
later
conversation
I
had
with
a
successful
candidate,
he
expressed
surprise
that
many
of
the
older
students
he
approached
during
the
evening
class
break
were
simply
not
interested
in
the
S.A.
or
the
campaign.
It
might
help
you
to
understand
the
"oldies
point
of
view
when
you
remember
that
their
priorities
are
considerably
different
than
those
of
the
"youngies".
For
many
of
them,
holding
down
3
jobs
(a
career
job,
taking
care
of
a
family,
and
trying
to
further
their
education
by
taking
courses
in
the
evening)
doesn't
leave
them
much
time
for
anything
else.
Besides,
would
you,
as
an
18-20
year
old,
feel
better
represented
with
a
Student
Council
of
30-50
yr.
olds,
or
with
those
of
your
own
comparative
age?
wsswmswzmm
Other
concerns
voiced
will
hopefully
be
tackled
in
committee
meetings
and
since
the
new
President
and
Vice
emphasized
the
need
for
communication
between
the
S.A.
and
the
student
body
during
their
campaign,
we
should
be
hearing
directly
from
them
on
a
regular
basis
in
the
future.
-As
I'm
sure
most
of
you
know
now,
the
Faculty
have
a
new
contract
with
the
College
Board
(as
of
Jan.6th)
and
have
even
had
their
celebration
bash
(Feb.
10th).
Full-time
salaries
are
higher
(7
dec.'89;7
Dec.'90;3
Dec.
'91)
as
are
part-timers
salary
and
benefits.
Workload
is
reduced,
Professional
Development
Funding
improved,
and
the
on-going
contracts
for
sessional
instructors
on
our
regional
campuses
are
also
improved.
There
is
even
a
guaranteed
ratio
of
instructorstudent
for
the
practical
clinics
in
Dental
Hygiene
(15)
and
in
nursing
(18).
Those
on
both
sides
of
the
table
are
to
be
congratulated
on
their
settlement.
-Did
you
hear
that
Sea
Lions
are
fouling
work
docks
at
a
pulp
mill
in
Nanaimo?
They
apparently
not
only
smell
up
the
environment
with
their
fishy
breath
and
body
odour,
they
leave
deposits
of
excrement
for
the
workers
to
shovel
up.
I
wonder
where
they
ever
got
the
idea
that
turn-about
was
fair
play?
-An
appeal!!
To
all
areas
of
the
college-
for
snipets
of
information,
gossip,
beefs
or
bouquets
or
whatever.
We
want
to
hear
about
those
great
Nursing
parties
and
whether
the
Electronics
department
ever
got
their
conflicting
schedules
sorted
out.
What's
the
latest
in
the
"tooth"
department
and
how
many
engines
have
the
mechanics
torn
apart
and
put
together,
only
to
find
extra
parts
left
over?
What
about
a
fool-proof
recipe
on
how
to
cook
rice
for
bachelor
students
and
can
anyone
confirm
the
rumor
the
the
Geo-truckers
are
trucking
down
to
Vancouver
for
a
(oh
yeah!)seminar?
Where's
your
pride
in
your
chosen
professional
field?
Talk
it
up!
Tell
us!
It
doesn't
have
to
be
fancy
-
we
just
want
to
know
you
are
there!
