When Kitchener’s CKCO-TV decided to revamp the look of their newscasts with a brand new studio set, they weren’t sure wlnat they -were going to do with their old set once the new set was put to use Sept. 20.

fourth floor of the Doon campus main building and it hasn’t put any strain on their budget. The set will be used for student newscasts, just as if it were back in its glory days at CKCO-TV, as well as for other student productions. “It’s a great learning experience for the students,” Du

Currently negotiating with Toronto’s CFTO-TV for another donation, the BRT faculty will continue to look for other donations of equipment in the future. But since many broadcasters operate under equally tight budgets, anything donated, according to Du Boulay, “has to have pretty well had the biscuit.” Many graduates of Conestoga College are currently employed by CKCO-TV thus it is only fitting that this broadcasting station would be generous enough to help upgrade the BRT facilities through the donation of this studio set.

Vandalism, drug deals, harassment and foul language, it’s bad enough that these things go on in city streets and alleys, but in a cemetery? Vandalism, as defined in Webster’s dictionary, is “wanton and deliberate destruction of private property.” What could be more private than a person’s tombstone? This may seem trivial to many people but what’s sacred in society today when the dead no longer can carry R.I.P. on their tombstones! Rest in peace, what a farce.

Everyone has to consider the inevitable thought of death at some time in their lives. Is this the environment you wish to “rest in peace” in? You may think what can I do about it? No individual can control vandalism but when we all take a part in it, the end is closer at hand. Vandalism is a crime ignored by most but it’s about time something was done about it. This is a beginning to the end.

the worst recession since the 1930s, it seems that the most financially vulnerable groups are being hit hardest by the effects of a collapsing econ-

bad times. According
Wim
Simonis, president of the Federation of Students at the University of Waterloo, the average student coming to that university is from a wealthier background than has been the case in the to
past.
“Those from families who haven’t got the resources aren’t even applying because
either they lack the knowledge of the financial assistance programs available or they’re reluctant to go into debt. They are afraid that they won’t be able to pay back student loans,” said Simonis. Not all the lower income types give up the idea of a post-secondary education. If they can’t afford the time and money it takes to obtain a university degree some set their sights on a community college diploma.
