Hike foreign student fees

Dear Editor:

The way to go Ontario!
Upping foreign student fees
makes sense, especially
when their parents are well-
to-do and they can go
anywhere at any time.

Ontario has had enough. It
is imcreasing its foreign
student fees from 30 per cent
to 50 per cent of cost this

Fall. It's aiming at 70 per
cent in 1983 and 100 per cent
in 1984! Compare this with
10 per cent in British
Columbia and you can see
why U.B.C., Simon Fraser
and the University of
Victoria continue to attract
foreign students in their
thousands. ,

Most European
United States

and
universities

recover all their costs. That
is why their fees are now in
the order of $10,000 a year.
We in B.C. are a soft touch
by comparison. We're still
charging less than $1,000 on
the average for our own
students and foreign
students alike.

We, the taxpayers, pay the
difference. I'm all for paying
something to help foreign

students who really need
financial help. Give them
government financed
scholarships if necessary.
But don't help those who
don’t need any help. Our tax
burden is heavy enough
already!

Sunshine ‘person’ preferred

Dear Editor:

Instead of having Sun-
shine Girls in the North
Shore News, I would rather
prefer to see “Sunshine
Person Of The Week” or
“Citizen Of The Week” or
“Person Of The Week.”
Show the North Shore
community what that
particular person has
achieved the award for,
whether he/she be a school
child or a 90 year young

individual.

I'm sure if you approached
the schools to work in
collaboration with you, that
would encourage the
students to do good deeds or
something good, worthy of
being nominated student of
the week, or something to
that effect.

If I know of someone who
is doing some outstanding
service to the community, I
could write in and ask that
he/she be nominated

NEWS thanked for
cancer help

Dear Editor:

On behalf of the Canadian

Cancer Society, British
Columbia and Yukon
Division, I would like to
express our deepest

gratitude to you and the
North Shore News for the
tremendous support you
have given us during our
April Campaign.

The tremendous success
of this year’s campaign is due
in no small part to the
assistance you gave us in the
form of publicity. This year’s
coverage was excellent, with
the help of Marc Howard.

Jean Reid, and Anne
Hallstein. For the first time
in many years, we found that
the vast majority of
households were aware of
our canvass and its goals -
and, as aé_= result, were
prepared to support our
Campaign.

The North Shore News has
performed an invaluable
community service by ts
generous support, for which
we are extremely grateful

Sally Smith
North Shore
Campaign Coordinator

‘Citizen of the Week.
Likewise, you could ask your
readers to do the same.

Who knows, maybe you,
through your paper will
create an incentive for
people wanting to be good
and do good, hopefully will
be instrumental in
eliminating juvenile

delinquency because youth
will be recognized and given
credit for their good deeds.
Their self esteem will also be
enhanced.

Your comments on the
above will be appreciated.
