Wales. Stubbs describes her. hometown as being a tourist attraction with Port Macquarie perfectly located ‘next to a beach. The climate is. mild, and -there’s no snow. Stubbs added, ‘‘We get-our fair share of rain, but not like Terrace.’’ Port Macquarie is a small community of 26,000 people, however Terrace Court report On Monday, April 13 in Terrace Provincial Court Robert Janes .was fined $500 for operating a motor vehicle while his “ability to drive was im- paired. he In Terrace Provincial Court on Monday, April 13 David Doolan was fin- © ed $450 for operating a - motor vehicle while his ability to drive was im- paired. eee On Monday, April 13 in Terrace Provincial Court Mathew Henyu was fined $600 for operating 2 motor vehicle while his _ ability to drive was im- paired. se & In Terrace Provincial Court on Monday, April 13.

Program direction —= continued from page 1 - counselling: to college ad- ministrators on course content for the HSW pro- gram, ‘‘During the time I ‘have been chairman, this committee has not once been approached for con- sultation,’’ Foster said. The committee is left with a number of dis- quieting questions, Foster indicated, including the quality of education in the HSW program, whether a replacement will be hired during the, coming one- year leave of absence be- ing taken by HSW coor- dinator Jake Muller, whether graduates of a one-year HSW program | will have sufficient _ qualifications to_be useful to local social service organizations, and whether there is in fact any future at all for the academic division of the college.: Foster’s ‘concerns .were echoed by other HSW ad- visory committee mem- bers present at the meeting, including Andre Klingner of the Terrace Mental Health Centre, Terrace and District Com- munity Services Socicty executive director Lorna Copeland and Ksan House coordinator Marilyn Bailey. ; Klingner said it is prob- able that one year of train- ing would leave students with questionable quali- fications for employment. “The community loses and the college loses. We should make sure we can employ these graduates, otherwise the program | might as well be gone,” he said. board that personnel stan- Copeland advised the dards for workers in the ~ social services are becom- ing more demanding and ; the demand for communi- ty-based services is also in- creasing. Graduates of the. two-year program, she said, have . specialized abilities and employable at a_ high wage. With the advent. of the one-year program, she stated, the. societies. that. operate community care programs will have to start looking to other colleges, such as Northern Lights, for employable graduates. Copeland also pointed out | that despite the high de-_ }- mand for HSW graduates the college had cut that program while continuing to ‘support programs for high-unemployment voca- tional trades fields. — Marilyn Bailey said Ksan House, a local shelter for battered” _ women, depends on HSW graduates to fill its staff- _ ing requirements, and she | urged the board to follow. Foster’s recommenda- . tions, After listening to the delegation, board member - Duane Gould said. the committee had: failed to address the financial prob- lem of continuing the pro- gram. Gould said the HSW course had been budgeted for 34 students, but. only 22 had enrolled. “The course is being.sub- . _sidized by other programs, . and we’re going to have to have a long serious look at it. +B] Acting board chairman . -Judith Jephson said the | board . sympathized with the committee’s concerns, but she added that fund- _ing is “‘the bottom line’’. ete “- ‘spends year i n “Terrace oes are - said ‘Stubbs; the ‘popula-. “ tion doubles. during. the Christmas season to. over 50,000 people. During her stay in Ter- race, Stubbs will ‘stay a— total of four, three month periods with various. Rotary Club families. So far, Stubbs said she’s en- joying Terrace despite ;the weather, but she finds the ‘school curriculum differs from her native. land. ‘*‘The curriculum at Caledonia Senior Secon- dary School is easier and it’s not as strict as New. South Wales’’. Stubbs is used to wearing a uniform to her school, however, ‘she’s enjoying wearing casual clothes to school. The . Rotary Interna- tional Youth Exchange Program allows top notch students to go to a number of countries for a year’s time. Students have the South America, - European countries, just ‘to name afew. ~ “opportunity tO: * choose : from’ countriés: such : as Australia, New: Zealand, Japan, ‘Stubbs said she had to write an essay on why she | would’ like ‘to: be an ex- ‘ change student and where - she would like to go..She 9. -was then selected from a — @ small number of students — + ‘who had been presented to the Rotary Club District. -Terrace belongs to District 504 which is-a | large Rotary area covering — half of British Columbia and upper Washington. ‘ This year the Rotary Club J has .sent a student to f.
