2005-06 Kwantlen Chroncile Articles...
The following page presents articles that appeared in issues of the Kwantlen Chronicle (as written and published by students of the Kwantlen University College's Journalism Program), as well as articles that have appeared at other news sources. Most of the articles presented here concentrate on the KSA, but some contain information regarding important issues that the KSA should be working to address.
In past correspondence with members of the Chronicle, I noted that I would be scanning copies of articles for posting on my website and they expressed no objection to doing so. Recently, The Chronicle began its own website and although it is still very much in the developmental stages you can still visit the new http://www.kwantlenchronicle.ca/ online today.
