Student Work Abroad Programme<br />

(SWAP) gives students the opportunity<br />

to.turn summer employment into a life-<br />

time of experience. -.<br />

Canadian students can apply for<br />

this overseas working holiday in Bri-<br />

tain, Irel<strong>and</strong>, New Zeal<strong>and</strong>, Australia<br />

<strong>and</strong> now Japan.<br />

Along with gaining invaluable<br />

work experience, students get a chance<br />

to explore the host country which gives<br />

a student the opportunity to leam about<br />

the country <strong>and</strong> its culture first-h<strong>and</strong>.<br />

Students are working, not just visi-<br />

ting, so their travel budget is extended<br />

<strong>and</strong> the student can stay longer.<br />

Past participants agree that using<br />

their SWAP experience on resumes gi-<br />

ves them an advantage over other stu-<br />

dents.<br />

Host countries provide advice, job<br />

assistance, placement (except Irel<strong>and</strong>)<br />

<strong>and</strong> assist with accommodation.<br />

Part-time students are only eligi-<br />

ble for British <strong>and</strong> Irish programmes<br />

<strong>and</strong> all students must have a Student<br />

Identification Card.<br />

» \.<br />

l<strong>and</strong> the age requirement is 18-30 <strong>and</strong><br />

all other destinations, applicants must<br />

be between 18-25.<br />

SWAP operates through agree-<br />

ments between the governments of Ca-<br />

nada <strong>and</strong> the host countries <strong>and</strong> stu-<br />

dents are chosen according to quotas of<br />

participants from each country, refe-<br />

rences <strong>and</strong> work experience.<br />

Each .SWAP participant must ful-<br />

fill the following requirements: must<br />

be a Canadian citizen or citizen of the<br />

country chosen, must have a passport,<br />

have round-trip travel arrangements<br />

made through Travel Cuts (a subsidiary<br />

of SWAP) <strong>and</strong> a registration fee must<br />

fee since it does not receive funding<br />

pay" programme.<br />

such as salaries, brochures, telepho<strong>ne</strong><br />

<strong>and</strong> telex.<br />

Fees range in price from $100 to<br />

$190 <strong>and</strong> are non-refundable unless the<br />

application is rejected.<br />

Familiar Campbell soup labels<br />

the trademark of Andy Warhol<br />

The death of pop artist<br />

Andy Warhol has sparked<br />

some commments. from<br />

the staff <strong>and</strong> students of<br />

the Graphic Arts division.<br />

David Chesterton, teacher<br />

of Color, Layout <strong>and</strong> De-<br />

sign, had these words to<br />

say:<br />

"He will be missed. He<br />

poked fun at the design<br />

establishment <strong>and</strong> he did<br />

it in an interesting way."<br />

Andy Warhol himself<br />

would have considered it<br />

quite amusing that when<br />

he had to go, it was on the<br />

basis of a gall bladder, not<br />

something gr<strong>and</strong>iose like<br />

cancer."<br />

Warhol was undergoing<br />

gall bladder surgery at<br />

New York Hospital-Cor-<br />

<strong>ne</strong>ll Medical Centre.<br />

Second year graphic arts<br />

student Andrew Hunter<br />

said that his death was<br />

"pretty sad. He was a good<br />

artist, especially in the<br />

early sixties. I liked the di-<br />

versity of his work."<br />

First year graphic arts<br />

student Craig Sgencer<br />

said that WarhoFs "death<br />

was a great loss to the art<br />

world.<br />

Warhol is best known for<br />

his monolithic silkscreens<br />

of such subjects as amp-<br />

bells Tomato Soup cans<br />

<strong>and</strong> actress Marilyn Mon-<br />
