Also, this small minority

Your students council cannot condone this sit-in; a sit-in that uses

people with problems in a political game. Neither can we condone a

small group, who, by their

actions,

obstruct the rest of the students

on Campus.

RE 22J) - COUNCIL

OFFICE

West 12th Avenue, Va,couver

5ii

November 

19, 1966.

Mr. Rob Walsh, 

President, 

Simon

Fraser University, 

Student 

Society, 

Burnaby 2, B.C. 

Dear Rob: 

The members of the Vancouver City College Student's Council. would 

like to take this opportunity, to make known to both you and your Society, 

our position on the present situation which exists at 

your campus.

•

?

?

We feel that the main issue at large; i.e. free 

transfer

and accreditation, 

are worthy causes. We feel that the achievement of these goals would 

be beneficial to 

many

students in British Columbia. We do not, however, 

support the methods which are being em 

p

loyed to attain a satisfactory result. 

We are of the opinion that protestations and demonstrations can do nothing 

but damage and retard any movement toward a meaningful settlement. 

Those students from Vancouver City ColleZe who are actively participating 

in the demonstrations, are not a representative body of thi 

'

school. They

are acting on their own and without the approval of this Council. 

• ? 

We trust that our Council and Simon F'aser's Student Society shall 

be able to work to-gether, toward a mutually advantageous end to this 

• situation.

WiTiam Lewis...
