I think it is outrageous that
Douglas College has a Board of
Directors so isolated from the
needs of the students. A Board of
Directors only concerned with one
thing: bettering their political
careers. Maybe it is time the stu-

Let me teach you the most im-

this strike. Never ever vote for Mr.
Anti-Education (I’m referring to
the drop-out Bill VanderZalm if
you haven’t already guessed)
again. We should all know by now
that education isn’t a priority for
him - it isn’t even an issue.

Anyone who attended the stu-
dent rally and the subsequent meet-
ing with the administration board at
Douglas College on Thursday, Nov
16, will already know what I can
tell you; that being that the ad-
ministration of this college lacks
the courage and resolve required to
act in the students best interest.
Repeated attempts to get the board
to respond to the students demands
of maintaining negotiations 24
hours a day until resolution of a
strike, and of a public statement by
the board admitting that this col-
lege is underfunded, were
answered with rhetoric, and blank
faces. This board works only in the
interest of the politicians which in
turn serves their own interest.
People who lack the personal in-
tegrity to stand up for the students
of this college, even to the the detri-
ment of their own careers are not
worthy of the position they hold.
How can they live with themsel-
ves?

The meeting with the board
members was an insult to the stu-
dent body. There were no answers
to simple, straight foreward ques-
tions. One of the major questions
asked by many students and in
many different ways was ifthe Col- : —
lege was willing to meet in the
same room with the faculty
negotiation team and talk about the
problems. At this point all we know
is that they will be meeting with the
mediator.

College
I am thoughly disgusted with
the institution’s lack of respect for
its students. I am a second year
student currently enrolled in the
Drama program. If I am to remain
a student at this so-called college I
expect to be treated as an adult
human complete with emotions,
concerns and believe it or not, a
fututre. I cannot possibly say that I
am proud of Douglas College be-
cause because it refuses to acknow-
ledge these facts. Furthermore, I
would vehemently encourage
anyone who is considering attend-
ing this college not to do so is they
wish to use Douglas College as a
platform to launch their academic
career.
