            Eleventh Annual Cégep
            Holocaust Symposium

      Vanier College is proud to offer the following schedule of speakers, 
films and events for the week of March 29- April 2, 2004. This year's theme 
explores aspects of youth - how the Holocaust robbed people of their youth, how 
young people then responded to persecution, threats and adversity, and how 
young people today see their future in the light of their education in the 
lessons of the past.

      Please note: Any teacher who wishes to bring their class to any of these 
events should contact Neil Caplan by email or by telephone at ext. 7152 to
