C apilano College started in West Van- >.
 couver in. 1968 and, over the years,
we have reported to the people of West
Vancouver, North Vancouver, Howe
Sound, and the Sunshine Coast in a
variety of ways. In the earliest days, we
reported regularly to the School Boards of
our region. We have prepared Annual
Reports and held public meetings to deal
with specific issues such as our Educa-
tional Plan. Articles and feature stories
about life on campus have appeared in
local papers regularly.

In these days of fast-paced change, finan-
cial uncertainty, and concern about what
educational institutions are doing, we
want to bring you up to date. We have
changed in many Ways and this brief
report is a portrait of what we are today.
But we have not changed in one impor-
tant way — Capilano College is still your
community college.
