health sciences The Health Sciences Division offers Nursing programmes, Dental Assistant and Dental Hygiene. There is great importance placed on the student ' s per- formance in laboratory and clinical settings. Since the performance of the graduates from these programmes may directly affect the health and well-being of the people with whom they come in contact, it is mandatory that these students not only achieve good academic grades, but that they also master certain basic skills.

Oshawa has been serving and working in conjunction with Durham for the past twelve years. Oshawa has provided a transit system that took students to and from the College throughout the year. Through rain, hail, sleet, and snow, our faithful bus drivers managed to arrive at the College and unload sleepy students every morning. The Oshawa citizens have had the opportunity to become familiar with the events that Durham College hosted or participated in. The local newspapers featured articles on the athletic standings, graduates and other school oriented events. If by chance, or choice, home was located at a great distance from the College, remaining in Oshawa for the weekend furnished an ap- propriate time to become acquainted with Oshawa ' s many entertainment features. Dances, movies, plays, restaurants and pubs were open to provide enjoyment for all. Durham College should be proud of the fine city in which it is located, and Oshawa should be proud of the fine College it contains. By chance, or choice, Durham and many fast food restaurants were built in the same vicinity. There are cuisines that prepare delicacies to befit the finickiest connoisseurs. Mother ' s and Frank ' s by popular choice (if only for their liquids) provided a relatively quiet atmosphere. These two restaurants offered discounts for the students of Durham. For those who preferred the traditional hamburg and fries , there was Burger King ' s Whopper or the twoallbeefpatties of Mc- Donald ' s. A small poll was taken to find the most popular places. Favourite Eateries Poll 2 Frank Vetere ' s — good bar (salad of course!) 2 Mother ' s Pizza — cute waitresses. 2 McDonalds — caught a glimpse of Ronald McDonald. 3 couldn ' t remember where they got . . . um, ate. 1 didn ' t return. And just think, all year you had brought your own homemade peanut butter sandwich and devoured it in Durham ' s Cafes when you could have been OUT TO LUNCH . 12
