  • A Brief History of the Transfer System in British Columbia
    A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE TRANSFER SYSTEM IN BRITISH COLUMBIA The following information has been prepared as a brief history of important events in the development and maintenance of the post-secondary transfer system in British Columbia (BC) over the last six decades. The information is presented in point form and in chronological order and includes several points related to the expansion of the post-secondary system and hence the transfer system in BC over that time period. The bullets referring to this expansion, which led to a highly differentiated post- secondary system in which transfer became a crucial factor, are listed in bold. Please note that the list of changes in the post-secondary system is not meant to be exhaustive and, therefore, does not include all openings, closings, mergers, and name changes of institutions in BC. The information below should be useful to anyone wanting to develop a better understanding of the history of BC’s well-developed transfer system and the reasons we have created such a system. Both newcomers to BC post-secondary education and long-term employees will hopefully be able to learn from the list of historical events presented below. The list of important events has been compiled by reviewing a number of literature sources that have dealt with the historical development of BC’s post-secondary and transfer systems. These include the Advanced Education Council of BC (2000), Andres and Dawson (1998), Dennison (2002), Gaber (2002), and Johnston (2005). These references are included in the bibliography at the end of the document. The list of events below has been reviewed and revised by individuals with a long-standing knowledge of the development of BC’s transfer system to ensure accuracy and completeness as much as possible.

Each of the towers is a standout — lit- erally. The 26-storey Shaughnessy on Lions Park will be the first highrise in Port Coquitlam’s history, while Onni’s Oasis, at 37 storeys, will be the tallest highrise in Coquitlam. The organizer of the Shaughnessy sales and marketing campaign, Cam Good of TheKey. com, thinks that the suburban- urban divide is disappearing as down- towns, or town centres, develop in Low- er Mainland municipalities outside Van- couver. “The idea of where is ‘cool’ is shifting,” Good says. “The suburbs have centres with their own restaurants, shops and events.” The Shaughnessy homes, Good reports, are appealing to a wide range of buyers. About one-third of the homes have been sold, by an equal mix of first-time home- buyers, downsizers and would-be land- lords.
