be a part of the business
program here at UNBC.

Undergraduate Student
Society (BUGSS) is a
committee of business
students aimed at plan-
ning events, organizing
committees, and _ con-
tributing to the overall
development of the busi-
ness program. If you are a
business student and
wish to volunteer for
BUGSS, there are sched-
uled meetings on the first
and third Friday of every
month. - The location of
the meetings will be sent
out on the BUGSS mail-
ing list or posted on the
plaque. If you are not on
the mailing list and wish

BUGSS agenda include:

-Becoming an incorpo-
rated society in British
Columbia;

-The development of the
many committees within
BUGSS;

-A semi-formal dinner to
be held March 11 at the
Coast Inn of the North.
The function is to be
attended by many mem-
bers of the Prince George
business community. Dale
McMann will be the guest
speaker. Further informa-
tion about the dinner will
be sent out on the
BUGSS mailing list and

will also be included in
the BUGSS page in the
next edition of Over the

Recently, the develop-
ment of BUGSS has
made great progress, but
we can always use more
help. If you are a busi-
ness student and are
looking for extracurricular
activities to participate in,
please feel free to come
to our next meeting. This
will give you an opportu-
nity to offer any ideas you
may have, ‘help out in the
development of YOUR
program, as well as to
meet people and make
friends in the same pro-
gram as you. We hope to
see you there.
