I have the advertisement that I will scan and upload, it is very entertaining. I got an email from the president of the Lethbridge College last year about the sponsorship of the Alternative Health Care trade show put on at the College. Her response was disappointing at best: <blockquote>Thank you for your feedback. . . we are always interested in hearing from our community and particularly from our alums. Our job in post-secondary is to promote critical thinking. . . clearly something you very much support as indicated by your affiliation with Freethinkers. We hope that our students will be able to distinguish between what is science and what is not. . . as I'm sure you know, there are many alternative medicine options that warrant further exploration and investigation. We want our students to see what's out there and be able to formulate measured opinions. They need to decide for themselves what is fallacy and what is not. I hope this helps. . . Cheers! T. Dr. Tracy Edwards President and CEO Lethbridge College</blockquote> I responded with asking her about sponsoring a Intelligent Design trade show or a moon landing conspiracy lecture so student could decide for themselves on those issues also however I did no receive a response.

Psychic, touch-therapy, Reiki etc. Check the "Mind.Body.Home" page at the College site. Perhaps a few letters of concern to the College may be in order.
