CLASSIFIED COUNCIL CORNER
by Catherine Crawford, Classified Council President

Kit Crawford

Trick or Treat… It’s that time again.

Our Annual Holiday party will take place at BJ’s Restaurant and Brewery in Burbank on December 13. 

This Halloween, Classified Council will be running a competition for the best decorated office and the best Halloween costume. This event is open to all classified, confidential and management staff, on both the Garfield and main campus.  Dr. Wendy Fonarow, our resident Halloween guru, has kindly agreed to judge the competition.

     Classified Council and Staff Development will co-sponsor a lecture on identity theft on November 9 from 12 to 1 p.m. in Kreider Hall. Unbelievably, Glendale is one of the identity theft capitals of the United States, and this crime is also one of the fastest growing.  Police officers from the financial crimes department will give an in-depth lecture about what is being done to combat the crime in Glendale, and what steps you can take to protect yourself. This event will be open to everyone on campus.

     One of the Council’s main priorities is to fundraise for student scholarships. We will be holding a See’s candy fundraiser, starting in November and running through the beginning of December.  Please consider purchasing a few boxes from us. Not only are these candies quite delicious, but the price is most reasonable. Plus, you get to help out a deserving student at the same time.

     Our Annual Holiday party will take place at BJ’s Restaurant and Brewery in Burbank on December 13.  This is a new venue for us, but I am told that their Pizookie desserts are to die for. So forget that diet and join us for a fun evening with all your GCC work colleagues. Please watch your email for further details.

Please don’t forget to submit your membership dues for the 2006/2007 year.  The cost is still only $7, and to make things easier you can submit your membership electronically, by visiting our website at www.glendale.edu/classifiedcouncil.

Happy Halloween!
