Status International event will be held during the next term with the help of a key international department staff member (who is currently on leave). Planning for this is on hold until Feb/Mar of next term I wrote an article in the Link expressing the importance of resume building. Provided students with several key ways the SA and SA services can help increase their employability. Establishment of the Financial column in the Link is in progress - Met with Alicia, Publications Manager Friday. The writers have been determined and a package outlining deadlines as well as responsibilities will be distributed after mid-terms. Meeting with Marie-Claire Manager, BCIT Foundation scheduled for Monday Oct 26th. Arranged by Peter Smith, VP Campus Life. In attempts to improve the communication gap between administration, students and our advocate regarding student policy, I have arranged for weekly meetings (every Friday) between myself, Christina Batstone, Advocacy Coordinator and Bill Howorth, Edco Chair. Here Bill Howorth, is able to receive direct feedback from both myself and Christina regarding policy changes and specific policy issues on a weekly basis.
