Ministry o£ Labour
As of 1984 February 20, the Ministry of Labour will have an office on the
V.V.I. Campus to provide student services to enrolled and potential
future apprentices at the V.V.I. This cooperative endeavour is expected
to improve the necessary liaison and cooperation between the Ministry of
Labour, Apprenticeship Branch, and the V.V.I, for the benefit of
apprenticeship training. The office is in the general Counselling area
on Level 1.

The VOICE
The College Student Newspaper, the Voice, will have a working office on
the V.V.I. Campus as of 1984 March 01, and hopefully this will provide

CANADIAN PARENTS FOR FRENCH QUESTIONNAIRE
In anticipation of the changing needs in language
instruction for the large number of students who will be emerging
from the French Immersion programs, British Columbia Parents for
French has established a committee to examine the state of

bilingual education at the post-secondary level in British
Columbia.
It would be of great assistance to our committee "if the

following questionnaire could be circulated amongst all faculty
members and returned to us on its completion. The intent of the

questionnaire is to determine which departments, with their
present staff, would be able to offer courses using French as the
language of instruction. All post-secondary institutions are
being contacted.
We appreciate your co-operation and look forward to the

opportunity of discussing our findings with you.
