The. lecture theater at -

Caledonia Secondary School
_was filled:to capacity one morn-

ing. last. month by students

~ who were interested in attending

post-secondary institutions after
graduation.

by Nancy Orr

Representatives from the
three major B.C. universities —
UBC, Simon-Fraser and Univer-
sity of Victoria —- as well as the:
British Columbia Institute of
Technology (BCIT), Royal
Roads Military Academy and
‘the local Northwest Community
College, spoke to the students,
outlining what each institution
had to offer and its differences,
After a short video presentation
the representatives went to
various locations in the school to
conduct small group interviews,
with provision for individual in-
terviews later if students so
wished.

With the exception of Royal

Roads, all the institutions are ©

members of the British Colum-
bia Secondary Liaison Commit-
tee which makes the arrange-
‘ments for visits to. secondary
schools throughout the prov-
ince.

According to Mags Gingles,
-counsellor at Caledonia, who in-
‘troduced’ the visitors, the visits
-in former years had been in early
spring, usually March, but this
:year October was chosen to give
‘the students more time- to plan
for their future.

Jan. Hamilton, advisor, and
"George Stanley, academic head,
:from NWCC, spoke first, em-
‘phasizing that a community col-
lege provides an opportunity to

enter gradually into post-sec-

ondary life; that classes are
smaller in colleges, attention is
-more individual and the costs
‘are less. They explained that

-NWCC scholarships could result"
in 100 percent payment of tui-

tion fees for an “‘A”’ average; up

to 50 percent for ‘*B’’ in Grades .

11 and 12; with the grants for
B.C. Passports to Education be-
ing applied on top of scholar-
ships. NWCC provides second-
. year levels in several of the
sciences and arts, Transfer to
other universities are available,
Trades training is an important
part of the programs offered.

Paul Thomson, SFU, describ--

ing his university as the ‘‘Alpine
university overlooking Indian
Arm’’, encouraged the students
to “do your homework well.

You are investing four years of

your life,’’

He described -SFU as a
medium-sized university, with a
trimester system enabling
students to choose which
semesters fit their life. patterns
best. Thomson explained the
Co-operative program at SFU in
which students are matched for
work in employment in their

area of study — they could

graduate with up to 20 months’
work experience. At the same
time, SFU encourages students
to take a wide variety of sub-
jects.

Amanda Hill, BCIT, offered
a different option. BCIT trains
for employment, with programs
of two years or less in trades and
technology, and emphasizes
specific career + training. BCIT

has atop reputation, with an
average of 82 percent employ-
ment within nine months of
graduation.

Sheila Brygadyr, admissions
and liaison officer at Royal
Roads, explained that although
R.R.M.C. was called a college;

it is in fact a four-year-degrée- .

granting institution, with three
colleges across Canada.
Students are paid, plus expenses;
they take four years of schooling
and sign up for five years of ser-

‘day of the second year to with-

draw, if they wish, otherwise ‘‘it
will cost money if you quit,” she
said, Students become bilingual.

The representatives from the

other two universities, Bob.
- Willihnganz, UVic, and Barbara

Talbet and Blair Grabinsky,
UBC, were delayed in their ar-
rival by air that morning. They
arrived- after the presentations
were. finished and were intro-

duced to the students before |

meeting with them in the small
group sessions.

A lively discussion took place
during the question period con-
cerning. the cost of post-secon-
dary education,. especially as to
what should be included in the
estimates.

The range was from “no
cost’? to RMCC, to up to
$10,000 in certain faculties and
life styles, with an average sug-
gested of $5,500 for eight mon-
ths, living in university
residence, or, if living at home
as at NWCC, just tuition ($800
average) and books ($800

expenses.

“Compare the cost to a

$30,000: car,’’ said Thomson,

SFU, ‘‘and the durability.”
Thomson told the students

not to be afraid of costs. ‘‘This

province has the most generous -

financial aid in Canada,’’ he
said, and urged the students to
examine. instead their aims and
goals when making their’ deci-

sions,
