VANCOUVER CITY SMOKING POLICY How is the new Vancouver City Smoking Policy going to affect us here at the V.V.I.? Well you will have your chance to voice your opinion on the matter before final decisions are made. The Campus Committee dealing with this policy will be compiling and distributing'an opinion survey to as many students, faculty, and staff as possible, and needs your cooperation in responding as quickly as possible when you receive your questionnaire. Watch for the survey and your chance to participate. LG STUDY TROUBLES??
