From the

PRESIDENT

Degree-granting is perhaps the biggest change, and

the college remains committed to opening new doors

for our students. This is why change is so important.

While the college upholds its traditions of small class

sizes, affordable tuition and exceptional faculty, we

must also always be looking for the next step, that

next change that will give our students what they

need and want in an education: a future.

MacEwan has seen its fair amount of change this year.

In February, a new MacEwan brand was launched.

Reflecting educational trends and industry standards,

the brand allows the college to create an identity that's

current, cutting-edge and cost-effective.

It also builds a consistent image across all college

communications and marketing initiatives. Our

first student residence opens in September, a dynamic

addition to the City Centre Campus that will create a

new dimension for the student experience and the

college itself.

hange is everywhere. Part of being an educational institution is to be

open to new ideas, fresh perspectives and unexplored avenues. Our

ability to be flexible, grants us the vision and ability to move forward and

continue to be a progressive and exciting environment.

alumni share their stories

Brant Hinkey is one of Grant MacEwanCollege’s student advisors. He graduated fromthe Audio Visual Communications program in1999. While a student, Brant was active withthe Students’ Association and swam on theGriffins swim team. These days he spends a lotof time on the road, recruiting students for thecollege.

You were a very involved student. Has that had animpact on your career?It sure has. The informal learning gainedthrough my involvement with the Students’Association has given me the confidence andexperience to plan and organize myself when Iam on the road recruiting. It’s also helped me feelat ease interacting with the many people I meetwhile recruiting. Of course, my formal training inthe AV program has also proved handy in helpingme set up my recruitment material.

Do you get asked any surprisingquestions by potential students?I once had a student ask me if he could get intoEngineering even if he hadn’t passed Math 30. Itmakes me realize that advisors really do have alot of information to share with potential students.I know I am helping by ensuring they know whatto expect when deciding what to do when theyfinish high school.

You’ve traveled to a lot of exotic places. Tell ussomething interesting about your travels. I always bring along my mascot—a stuffed toybeaver wearing a Mountie hat. The little guy hasbeen dunked in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans,the Taiwan Strait, the Aegean and MediterraneanSeas, the St. Lawrence River, the Great Lakes andmany other Canadian waters. He always gets lotsof attention and is a great conversation starter.

Deb Cautleyhome withat

Do you ever lie in bed after the alarm goes off, and wonder if you’re making a difference with your life?

Grant MacEwan College grad Deb Cautley never has that problem.

M O V I N G O N 9

Phoenix Theatre, to the 1988 Winter Olympicsin Calgary, to marketing director at EatonCentre. She even tried a stint of self-employ-ment, but found that it wasn’t for her. “I’m notan entrepreneur,” she laughs. “I like to knowwhat I’m doing every day.”

When she was first offered a job at YESS, shedidn’t exactly jump at the chance. “A friendwho was on the board said, ‘Come be our fundsdevelopment manager.’ I said no, because I’venever raised a cent in my life. So he hiredsomebody who didn’t last very long, and thenhe came back and asked me again to apply.”

This time, in May 1999, she reluctantly said yes.Less than a year later, she suddenly found her-self thrust into the role of acting executivedirector. “That was kind of frightening, for me.I’ve certainly managed staff, and things likethat. But now it’s doing budgets, and it’s rela-tions with major funders and stakeholders, andthings like that. That’s where my PR back-ground really, really helped.”

A few months later, in November 2000, she offi-cially became executive director. And she hasn’tlooked back since. “We’ve had incredible suc-cesses since that time,” she says. Last year, afterextensive research, the society drastically updat-ed its programs and methods. “We’ve actuallythrown out all our programs and restructured.We’ve done a number of renovations, we’vemade a lot of progress in staff satisfaction, withmotivation, recognition and appreciation. We’vecome a long, long way.”

The new programs place added emphasis onemployability, along with basic life skills. ManyYESS clients have never learned the day-to-daybasics of looking after themselves. “In two ofour residential programs, the kids cook theirown meals,” says Cautley. “They make theirown breakfast and lunch, and then one kid willmake supper for the group.”

“I was leaving last night, and you should havesmelt the food! One of the kids made roast beefand mashed potatoes. I went down, and they wereall sitting around like a family. Talking about

For the past five years, Cautley has beenthe executive director of Edmonton’sYouth Emergency Shelter Society (YESS).“I get up every morning, and I can’t wait

to get here. I’m often here at 5:30 or 6:00 in themorning, and I’m often here until 8:00 or 9:00at night. Part of it’s the workload, but you don’twork that hard if you don’t love what you do.”

The Youth Emergency Shelter became a fixtureon Whyte Avenue in 1981, when it took over theabandoned fire hall just east of Mill CreekRavine. Since then, it has provided shelter andprograms for homeless, young people betweenthe ages of 15 and 18. In 1992, the societyadded a second facility—START House—inEdmonton’s west end.

The shelters provide a vital alternative to life onthe streets. The kids at YESS come from everycommunity in Edmonton. Many have beenthrown out of their homes, or have otherwisebeen abandoned by their parents. Others havesimply fled from their families; nearly 70 percent of YESS clients have been physically, sexually or emotionally abused.

If that makes YESS sound like a depressingplace to work, Cautley has news for you. “Thekids are so amazing, and so resilient”, she says.“They overcome such barriers.”

“I can have a bad day, where I just want tothrow in the towel, and I go downstairs and seethe kids, or I’ll go downstairs and talk to one ofthe front-line workers and say, ‘Tell me some-thing good about the kids.’ And there’s some-thing good every single day.”

The path that brought Cautley to YESS was bothlong and winding. It began at MacEwan’sAdvertising and Public Relations program,where she graduated in 1980. “That was in theold Safeway building on 118 Avenue, the oldCromdale Campus. I was pretty pregnant whenI graduated, with my third child, so it took me awhile to get to work.”

She spent the next two decades moving amonga dizzying array of jobs, from Edmonton’s

their day, and picking on each other, just like abunch of kids in a family would do. I have onestaff person who came in on Saturday night (she’scrazy like me), and she said it was so cool to go inthere. Supper was over, and the kids were doingthe dishes. One was on the phone talking to herfriend; a couple of them were talking about whatthey were going to do that night. It was just likeyour own kids. And that’s what they are. They’rejust everyday, ordinary kids, with some barriers.”

Cautley and her staff have made it a priority tobuild that sense of home into their shelters.“Imagine having your birthday in a shelter,with a bunch of strangers and a bunch of otherhomeless kids. It’s hard. We do the best wecan.”

The shelter is associated with a number ofMacEwan programs, including Child and YouthCare, and practicum students make up a keyportion of the staff structure. In fact, somenever leave. “A lot of those practicum studentsfall in love with what we do,” says Cautley. “Ifwe have an opportunity to hire them, we’vealready got staff that have gone through ourtraining. So it’s simple to slip them into a full-time position.”

Cautley estimates that about a third of her staffat YESS are fellow MacEwan grads. Like her,they get hooked on the idea of making the worldbetter. “They’re so dedicated to those kids. Theysee so much in them. You come to work everyday, and it’s like there’s sunshine every day.”

National Institute for the Blind, andit really helped him develop differentmethods in teaching golf. Since then,he has taken on a group of about 15students from the Alberta Hospitalwho come for golf lessons twice ayear. He finds it exciting and chal-lenging dealing with students withnot only different physical abilities,but mental as well. The lessons heenjoys the most are the groups fromthe Glenrose Rehabilitation Institute.The classes include individuals witheither a brain injury, an amputation,or are recovering from a stroke. Robbhas taught those classes for the pastfour seasons, and he looks forwardto continue his work with them. Hiswork with the Glenrose patientsearned him an “Outstanding Serviceto Excellence” award in 2002.

Four years ago, Robb attempted tobreak the Guinness World Recordfor “Most Holes of Golf in 24Hours.” It was also a fundraiser forthe Canadian Cancer Society. Heplayed 729 holes, which was shortof the 846 record mark. In 2002, hewas two holes away from breakingit, and in 2003 weather hamperedhis third attempt. Last June, Robbfinally broke the record, completing851 holes, and he brought his totalcontributions to the CanadianCancer Society up to $90,000.Congratulation Robb!

His long-term aspirations are todevelop his skills to the point wherehe can leave the golf course pro shop

Robb JamesProfessional Golf Management1999Robb is 26, single, no children, andstill living in Edmonton. He is theassociate golf professional atVictoria Golf Course in Edmonton,and last season was his 10th yearof employment at that facility.Currently, he is in the middle of athree month term working at Telusas a 411 operator. He is trying tobank some money so that he can goaway for six weeks before the golfcourse re-opens in April.

In previous winters, Robb has cad-died in Las Vegas, backpacked inAustralia, or hung out in Edmontondoing some part time job which hehates. His summers are unbelievablybusy as he juggles a full work weekin the pro shop, conducts lessons onhis own time, as well as works onhis golf game for the approximately20 tournaments he plays during thesummer. Robb taught about 200 les-sons last season which includedjunior classes, and private, andsemi-private adult classes.

He also involves himself with specialneeds groups that are interested inlearning how to golf. Five years agoRobb taught a class of visuallyimpaired students from the Canadian

practicing child rearing with ourBlack Lab/Border Collie cross, Bear,while Jody worked as a school coun-sellor and youth worker. They didwell with her and decided in it wastime to expand their little family andin 2000 they were blessed with adaughter. Life became more of anadventure, but not enough for them,so in a matter of a couple monthsJody changed jobs, sold their veryold and falling apart house andbought a “newer” house and, in themidst of it all, found out their familywas expanding again. Their son wasborn in 2002. They are happy nowand any more adventure, Jodythinks, could drive them to insanity.

Working provided a journey of vari-ety. Jody started out in grouphomes, alternative school programs,young offenders’ centres and was aschool counsellor for a local ele-mentary /junior high school forthree years. She has finally madeher home with AADAC and enjoysworking as a generalist with adults,teenagers, and children. She seesherself staying there for a long time.

Jody hopes everyone she went toschool with is doing well and wish-es them the very best.
