Durham College - Yearbook (Oshawa, Ontario Canada)

Durham College Oshawa, Ontario Dean of Academic Affairs: Mr. J. L. Robinson The Chinese have a curse which goes: May you live in interesting times . Durham College in 1979 80 has been blessed with a routine but satisfactory year, free of unexpected and distracting events. One in which it has been fairly easy to concentrate on educational matters — the raison d ' etre of our being here. Durham College has become one of the fastest growing Colleges in the system, growing 15 1 2% this year, which, while gratifying from the point of view of acceptance by both students and employers, is nevertheless putting a strain on the physical and financial resources available. Staff and students alike have worked hard under these restraints to achieve the enviable results that make our graduates increasingly acceptable to employers. To those of you who will graduate this year, I offer my congratulations and best wishes for the future. For those who will be continuing on in 1981 I wish a great vacation, and look forward to renewing acquaintances again next Sep- tember.
