Students enter criminal minds North Island College students will soon be able to dig up a new crime career right in their own backyard.

From Forensic Anthropology to Psychological Explanations of Criminal and Deviant Behaviour, students learn to sift through human remains to recreate a person’s life, determine cause of death and discover what motivates people to commit crime in modern society.

Criminology is the latest addition to a growing selection of programs available at

the college, including Social Work Transfer Plan, Professional Cook 3, a post-degree business diploma in International Management, and new dual-admission agreements allowing students guaranteed entry to Emily Carr University of Art and Design, Vancouver Island University, the University of Victoria, and Royal Roads University.

Criminology starts this September and is already drawing widespread interest from across the North and Central Island.

Michael Green attended the Comox Valley RCMP camp while in high school and wanted to find one of the fastest ways to meet his career goals.

“I asked the RCMP for the best course to take to become a police officer, and they told me take criminology,” he said. “To me, criminology is all about the criminal mind and how it works. I just find it really, really interesting.”

Other students are returning to college on the North Island and looking for costeffective programs

to suit their general interests.

“I’m interested in the legal system, so I’m exploring criminology as a possible career choice,” said Campbell River resident Amberle Bakker.

The two-year diploma is recognized by employers and transfers directly to degree programs at Simon Fraser University, Vancouver Island University, and other degree-granting institutions in B.C. “The Criminology program opens doors to the fascinating field of criminal law and justice

studies,” said Richard Stride, NIC’s dean of academic programs.

“Students will be on the path to meaningful employment in law enforcement, corrections, the courts and all the supporting fields.”

Students do not need a science background to enter the program. However, a C in ENG 060, ENG 098, ESL 098 or English 12 is required.

To register or upgrade your English to be eligible for the program, visit www. nic.bc.ca/programs or call 1-800-715-0914.

19 Wing joins Canadian Forces challenge This year, 19 Wing Comox will take part in the Canadian Forces Sustainable Communities competition, a division of the Communities in Bloom program.

The program has been running nationally for 17 years, and in the Canadian Forces since 2006.

The goal is to engage everyone at 19 Wing, including all Wing Units, Lodger Units, Agencies and the Wing as a whole.

The Communities

NATURAL GAS FIREPLACES

in Bloom (CiB) program is committed to “fostering civic pride, environmental responsibility and beautification through community involvement and the challenge of a national program.”

CiB judges will visit 19 Wing Aug. 9 and 10 and evaluate its performance in the following: • Tidiness • Environmental Action • Heritage Conservation • Urban Forestry

• Landscape, including floral displays • Turf and Sports Fields The principle of community involvement is so fundamental to the program that it is evaluated in each of the sections of evaluation.

This involves the following Community (Base) sectors, contributing to various aspects of community participation, involvement, improvement, etc. –

Saving oil Choir looking for tenors From Page 5 container, oil filters and, since July 1, antifreeze.

Since the start of the program, used oil is up to 79 per cent recovery. Used oil filter recovery is at 86 per cent and used oil containers recovery is at 88 per cent.

“British Columbians have been doing a really good job,” Janssens said. “But there’s room for improvement.”

The program is funded by environmental handling charges that

are added to the cost of oil materials at the first point of sale or distribution.

In Port Hardy used oil, filters, and oil containers can be dropped at NAPAAuto-Parts and E.J.Klassen GM. Along with used oil materials, used antifreeze and containers can be brought to at the Dave Landon Motors during regular business hours.

The choir is comprised of 24 singers from the Comox Valley, Campbell River, and Quadra Island.

Since its creation in 1997, the choir has been has been committed to “singing excellent music excellently,” and has been building a loyal following in its home communities.

Milestones in the choir’s growth have been participation in the 1998 BC Chorfest as a “core” choir,

second-place finishes in the Chamber Choir category in the international choral festival Kathaumixw in 2000 and 2008, and the release in 2005 of the Island Voices’ second CD. Island Voices typically performs two major concerts each year as well as appearing in community and charity events.
