Thanks for Your Sup-
port

This is a small token of
gratitude for all those that
supported me in the past two
elections for the recorder
position on the Student So-
ciety. Your votes were put
to good use as I will be very
busy within the Student So-
ciety addressing the needs of
the students and trying to get
them more involved through
the creation of volunteer po-
sitions and making more
publicized of what the Soci-
ety is doing. A little about
myself: I am a second/third
year Psychology major who
transferred from Capilano
College in North Vancouver.
At the College I was in-
volved in setting up a peer
support system on campus
and then later worked as a
peer support volunteer and
academic advisor for a year
and a half. I am happy that I
made the decision to trans-
fer up here instead of remain-
ing on the Coast. Since my
arrival here in September I
have found UNBC to be a
haven of opportunities for all
those involved and I hope
that students and the like will
take advantage of these rare
opporiunities and get in-
volved. If you would like to

get I contact with me ont x
ideas for the Student Society —

or ideas on the University
you can e-mail me at:
grunp000@ugrad.unbc.edu

Thank you,

Your newly elected re-
corder

Former Wiliams Lake Student First to
Complete Master's Program

by Charlotte Mclain

Seth Raymond is the:first graduate student to define his masters thesis in Education
at UNBC. Raymond started his Master’s before UNBC opened in full operation as he was
registered in the Williams Lake regional pilot project that began July 1994.

His oral exam took place on the Ninth of March 1996 and all we as to be expected
he impressed the panel and received passing marks from the committee. As a result of his
degree program he obtained full-time employment as a School Counselor at DP Todd
Secondary in Prince George.

For those Master Students interested in a thesis-band program they are required to
defend their research project in front of a committee of four aoedcureny or other experts in
the field.

*But what does this have to do with Pepsi?* Let me explain...

In order to fund their poor, mismanaging butts, SLORC has looked towards North America for financial sup-
port. Investors such as *Pepsi and affiliates (KFC, Hostess/Frito-Lay, 7-Up, Pizza Hut, etc.), Texaco, Heineken* and
many, many others have brought millions of dollars into Burma...which benefits *no one but the military*.

*FACT*: Pepsi is the *only* soft drink choice cn campus.

So why do I care? Because I’m a commie tree-hugger? Maybe. Because I own every Bruce Cockburn album
and have an unhealthy addiction to granola? That’s a possibility...

All that I know is that I’m trying to start an action group to work towards changing the situation in Burma, as
well as other consumer-awareness issues. If you would like to get involved, please stop by the PGPIRG office (7-234b)
or phone (960-7474) and leave your name. If you’re too busy for that kind of stuff, at least try to encourage and a

the boycott of Pepsi products (boycotts do work, ask South Africa). Thanks for your time.
