- Good feeling at
CASNP’s first meeting

A newly. formed
organization of non-native
people whose aim it is to
support native groups held
its first meeting Monday
night in Smithers.

‘abeth Grosch,
organizer of the Canadian
Asgociationin Support of the
Native Peoples (CASNP),
said it was a successful
meeting which attracted
about 50 people from Prince
_ George to Terrace.

“There was a really good
feeling from the audiente,”’
Grosch said of the meeting.

Anumber of people joined
the organization at the
meeting and organizers
answered questions about

CASNP. The group also
discussed their first project
in the area, which will be‘to
help raise funds for the new
$10,000 Sinithers Friendship
Centre. .
‘CASN’ is a national
voluntary organization with
5,000 members across the
country. Its two main aims
are to promote awareness
and understanding among
non-native Canadians for

native efforts and
achievements and to assist
native people when

requested, to locate and
develop resources.

Through its library and
information services

CASNP provides a source of
up to date infromation on
contemporary native af:
fairs.

The association, through

: its national, regional and

local menibership, is a
means where native people
can inform the public of
their aims. CASNP warks
closely with native leaders
and groups to develop

~ programs of this nature.

this group write CASNP,

Women’s group alive
and well in Terrace

The Women’s Studies
Advisory Committee is alive
and well and meeting in

Terrace.

When the Northwest
Community College was
established in 1975 the
philosophy of educatior
emphasized that certair
traditionally disadvantaged
groups would be given
special. educational en-
couragment. The Women’s
Studies program grew from
this philosophy and was
augmented by community
demands voiced by women’s
groups throughout the
region.

The Women’s Studies
Advisory Committee con-
sisting of representatives of
various women's groups
from the Queen Charlette
Islands to Houston, was
formed to adivse and direct
the growth of this program.

The program coordinator,
Joanne Nakonechny, ‘was
hired’ August, 1976 to
develop courses, workshops
and seminars.

September 17th, 1977 the
Women’s Studies Advisory
Committee and program
coordinator met to review
the past’ year and to make
sure recommendations to
try to meet the needs of the
area in the most en-
compassing way. These
recommendations are that
Women's STudies be
present under the umbrella
of Sociology, atlest one
course being the Sociology
of Women and that it
incorporated in various
academic disciplines in
order to facilitate a greater
understanding of women in
society. For example, the
program coordinator would

teach sections of other
courses andthat in order to
reach more people, more
pre tory workshops should
eld which would serve
the desires of a particular
area a part-time secretary-
coordinator will be hired to
assist the Women’s studies
program coordinator and
Advirsory Committee and
we are encourage a further
development of the Women
Studies program in those
areas- which have not yet
been contacted.
JoanneNakonechny is
very interested in what is
happening in each com-
munity and what you would
like to happen. Whe will be
in Smithers, Tuesday,
Hazelton, Wednesdays, and
Terrace, Thursday and can
be reached through the

She believes a seat on

Ellis, unlike the majority
of council members, does
not want the Kitimat Oil

are too many questions that
need answering before we

can say the pipeline would
