FALL 2013 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE 3 From the corporate world to philanthropy: meet our new leader of advancement Brigitte Quintal How does a lawyer in the corporate world become a leader in the philanthropic sector? Executive Director of University Advancement Brigitte earned a BA and an M A in Theology from the Dominican University College and a BCL from McGill. She became a member of the Quebec Bar Association in 1992. After working for Bell Canada for close to 14 years, she moved to the philanthropic sector. She joined McGill University in 2007 where she acted as Associate Campaign Director, wo rk i n g m o s t ly i n t h e development of philanthropic potential in Europe and with Q ueb e c cor p orat ion s . I n 2010 Brigitte returned to her hometown of Sherbrooke to become Director of Development for the Faculty of Medicine and then Development & Campaign Director at l’Université de Sherbrooke. In May 2013 Brigitte became the new leader of Advancement at Bishop’s where she will guide fundraising, alumni relations and communications. 4 What excites you most about coming to Bishop’s? BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE FALL 2013 In 2000 I had a transforma- What do you think of our tive experience which led to a University major career change. One of my alma maters, the Dominso far? ican University College of Ottawa, recruited me as a volunteer, resulting in an opporWhat is your tunity for me to witness, fi rst greatest hand, generosity in action— strength? the dedication and engagement of both volunteers and donors. When McGill, another of my alma maters, presented What are your me with an opportunity to immediate work for its campaign, I made priorities? the transition and learned a tremendous amount on the job from my Assistant VP Development (who is now VP). I found development work fascinating and fulfi lling. When a position became available in Sherbrooke, I chose to return Anything in to my hometown. Bishop’s offers a liberal education that speaks to my values and resembles my own undergraduate background. You might say I’ve come full circle, from my theoretical studies to actually practicing and promoting the value of giving. We did not involve volunteers in fundraising at other universities to the large extent that Bishop’s does. This aspect of my job will be new and stimulating. particular you want to say to our readers? The closeness of the relationships is exceptional. I am hugely impressed by the intimate connections among alumni, students and others of the Bishop’s community. I enjoy meeting and interacting with people. I look forward to developing good relationships with everyone. • To get to k now and understand the different constituencies, • to sustain and grow our current programs, such as the Annual Fund and corporate giving, and • to build on our strong foundation in all areas of advancement. I am happy to be in a place where I will become acquainted with many great individuals and have the chance to make a difference at an institution that has contributed so much to the Eastern Townships where I was born. Principal’s Page A league of our own Promoting a shared model of education • primarily undergraduate student body Michael Goldbloom E very fall the football Gaiters compete against a team from the Maritimes, extending their play beyond provincial boundaries. In May of this year Bishop’s formalized a new alliance, the U4 League, with three of its friendly Maritimes rivals: Acadia, Mount Allison, and St. Francis Xavier. Designed to promote and enhance our shared liberal arts model of education, this strategic partnership arose from our common features: • small size (under 4,500 students); • primarily residential nature (more than 75% of students live on campus or within two km); (over 90% are undergraduates); • national student demographic (at least 40% are from out of province); and • small town locations. We also created our League as a response to growing concerns—expressed by students, parents, educators and media commentators—about the deterioration of undergraduate education in Canada. Although our type of university carries cachet in the US, in Canada the large, urban, research-oriented institution has become the norm. Facing fi nancial challenges, most universities have been increasing their undergraduate enrolments, while focusing their resources primarily on building graduate programs and research capacity. U4 institutions offer an attractive alternative for the undergraduate student: small classes and direct contact with professors who usually do the teaching themselves. To survive and prosper in an era of limited government funding, the U4 institutions must do even better. In this respect, our League is not a fi rst step towards some U4 LEAGUE IN ACTION FUTURE COLLABORATION • “Up for Debate”: The Future of Undergraduate Education – held in February at Bishop’s. Students, faculty, staff, and administrators participated in a student debating tournament and TEDx Talks. • “Teaching In and Beyond the Classroom” – held in April at Mount Allison University. Students and faculty explored the many roles students play in undergraduate teaching and mentoring. • Undergraduate Research Showcase – Fall 2013 at Acadia University. • Student Leadership Forum – Fall 2013 at St. Francis Xavier University. • “Up for Debate” Round II – January 31, 2014 at Bishop’s. The U4 League might pursue collaboration in a number of ways: • by designing programs, courses, activities and exchanges that students from each of our universities can access—on and off campus; • by expanding the teaching, research and professional opportunities for faculty through the extended horizon of the League; future merger. We will continue to be rivals, but we believe that if our model of education becomes more widely understood and appreciated we may well enlarge the pool of high quality applicants rather than simply compete for the present number. We want to sustain enrolments, not increase them to the point our intimate learning experience gets eroded. We are optimistic about the possibilities for collaboration in a wide range of academic, administrative, and extracurricular activities. But even with a structure of governance and a budget of $600,000 for three years (raised from outside our operating budgets), the League will only realize its potential benefits if individuals—students, faculty, and staff—reach out to develop initiatives with other members. Four eastern universities, each over 150 years old, each ranked highly in the Maclean’s and The Globe and Mail surveys, as well as in the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE): perhaps one day Canadians will proudly promote our undergraduate model as being in a league of our own by any measure. ■ • by developing joint research projects, particularly those involving students as researchers; • by implementing a best practices approach to teaching; and • by conducting joint analyses of institutional operations to determine how communications, branding, administration, technology and service delivery might be improved.

There’s one last thing we owe BU: not to be tainted by the real world, to give Bishop’s the respect it deserves and to take the values we have learned while hidden away in this bubble with us wherever we go.

Games veterans from across the country enthused that the fare at Bishop’s was the best experienced at a Canada Games to date. "With our focus on healthy, nutritious fare, the food exceeded the Games’ requirement for the proportion of organic and fair trade items and doubled the target for locally sourced food," says Michael. “ The 2013 Canada Games, from the Opening Ceremonies to the Closing Ceremonies, and everything in between, will go down in history as a tremendously successful event. However, the Athletes Village – Bishop's – will be remembered most. Congratulations BU!!

Tom Allen ’69 There is no limit to what can be accomplished when we combine our strengths, talents and ambitions. It has been a great privilege for me to be part of this incredible adventure. Monique Leroux DCL ’11 Bishop’s University takes pride in its graduates—all of them. They lead in every walk of life. In the 2013 Class of the Top 10 After 10, we honour ten accomplished graduates between 1992 and 2002. The business of change W hen Jane decided to start her own management consultant company, she thought “my education trained me for something different.” But her path reveals a continuity that terms such as innovation, development and transformation best describe. After Bishop’s, Jane went to work at Nortel Networks, responsible for the implementation of environmental technologies as business opportunities. Her mentor and colleague at the time told her, “if you are not lead dog, the scenery never changes.” “So together we changed the scenery,” she says. Jane and her team developed the world’s first lead-free telephone, receiving several awards for innovation. To advance her career in the “green” business, Jane pursued graduate studies at MIT, writing her thesis on hydrogen fuelling stations for fuel cell buses. Recruited by several Fortune 500 companies, she chose to become an internal consultant in the Corporate Strategic Initiatives group at General Motors. She worked on developing non-automotive applications for fuel cell technology and exploring the possibility of GM getting into the general aviation business. In 2002, GM sent her to Europe as project leader for HR Operations Service Transformation and Integration. She helped to reduce GM’s HR costs and increase its productivity in 16 different countries. Jane returned to North America to head up a similar project for GM and later worked at a small US boutique firm called EquaTerra (now KPMG). “I spent five years as a senior advisor, providing global enterprises with advisory, transformation, and governance services that enabled clients to achieve sustainable value in their business processes and service delivery excellence.” Recognizing her ability and passion for management consulting, Jane went out on her own and has not looked back. She and her associates assist global clients designing strategies and solutions for sustainable business transformation. ■ Top 10 After 10 Jane Brydges ’95 President, Brydges and Associates Inc. Ottawa Jane graduated with a BA in Political Studies from Bishop’s and Master’s degrees in City Planning – Environmental Technology, and in Science, Technology and Policy from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Reaching for the stars C hris remembers how Bishop’s influenced his career path. “As one of only a few Physics students in a relatively new department, I became more involved than students in larger, more established departments at other universities. During the summers, Dr. Lorne Nelson hired me to do astrophysical research, test laboratory equipment and even design experiments. This work showed me how to apply what I learned to real-world problems.” Dr. Nelson also sparked Chris’s love for astronomy. He went to the U of T for graduate studies, but “Bishop’s wasn’t done with me. My PhD adviser, Prof. Charles Dyer, graduated from Bishop’s in 1968.” He taught for five years at Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania before going to Pasadena for a three-year postdoctoral research position at Carnegie. While there, a local college offered his wife Jenny, also a professional astronomer, a tenure-track position and then Carnegie offered Chris a permanent position. “We quite unintentionally solved our two-body problem (the difficulty for both spouses to find employment in the same field at the same institution or at least in the same geographic region).” Carnegie is a special place, and its environment reflects the values of an institution dedicated to enabling exceptional scientists to pursue their ideas with complete freedom. Chris’s primary responsibility is to do great science. Among other interests, he spends time working on the Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP). Supernovae, the explosive ends of stars’ lives, are essential to understanding the origin of the elements and can also be used to measure distances to other galaxies. The CSP attempts to provide independent constraints on the nature of Dark Energy by both improving our understanding of the nearby supernovae and working with infra-red telescopes to better measure the expansion of the universe. An enthusiastic scientist with a significant record of achievement in research and instruction, Chris is a recognized expert in the astronomical distance scale, cosmology, and supernova physics. ■ Chris Burns ’94 Research Associate, Carnegie Observatories Pasadena CA Chris graduated with a BSc in Honours Physics from Bishop’s and an MSc and PhD in Theoretical/Observational Astrophysics from the University of Toronto. FALL 2013 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE 9 Top 10 After 10 A corporate lawyer with a social conscience D Colin Feasby ’94 Partner, Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP Calgary Colin graduated with a BA in Honours History and Classical Studies from Bishop’s, an MA in History from the University of Western Ontario, an LLB from the University of Alberta, and an LLM and JSD from Columbia University. uring his year of articling, Colin spent lots of time watching court and found the most compelling lawyers were effective storytellers. “I realized the true essence of oral advocacy is storytelling, not argument,” explains Colin. “A story or narrative is the dominant way people make sense of the world.” Colin’s own story reflects his broad, liberal education as he gained a solid background in the arts before entering the profession of law. He joined Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt as an associate in 1999 but kept his mind on further studies. When the chance came to take time off from his firm in Calgary and attend Columbia, he eagerly left for New York City where he completed a JSD (equivalent to a PhD) in law in 2007. That year, Lexpert Magazine named Colin a “Rising Star” in their “Top 40 under 40” list of Canadian lawyers. Colin acts for multinational corporate clients in complex litigation. He continues to write about constitutional law and the democratic process, the subject of his JSD dissertation, with some of his articles cited in Supreme Court of Canada decisions. Colin has represented the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) in a number of public interest cases, including in the Supreme Court of Canada. In 2011, he took on a case regarding critical Facebook postings by students and the constitutional right to free expression in universities. In 2012, he represented the CCLA in a case before the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal concerning the constitutional right to strike. About his pro bono work, Colin says, “I’m happy to fight for important principles.” In court or out, the stories he constructs often serve the cause of the individual’s rights and freedoms in democracy. ■ The kid on advertising’s block A Chris Hirsch ’00 Creative Director, John St. Advertising Toronto Chris graduated with a BA in Philosophy from Bishop’s and a postgraduate diploma in Advertising from Humber College. 10 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE FALL 2013 member of John St. Advertising since 2005, Chris helped the company grow from 20 to over 100 employees in five short years. He was instrumental in John St. becoming Marketing Magazine’s Agency of the Year in 2008 and played a leading role in transforming a traditional creative department into a digitally integrated workplace that won silver for Agency of the Year and for Digital Agency of the Year at the 2012 Strategy Magazine Agency Awards. That same year, John St. named Chris the company’s first Creative Director (CD) since it was founded in 2001. “One thing you quickly learn in the advertising industry,” says Chris, “is that the awards you win for building successful campaigns are the currency by which your career gets measured.” As a young copywriter, he won awards at national and international competitions, including Silver and Gold at New York’s One Show and the Cannes Lions International Advertising Festival in France. His commercials have gained recognition for their effective use of humour, appearing on TBS’ World’s Funniest Commercials. While Chris takes pride in building successful campaigns for clients in the private sector, he finds his work for various causes “an especially rewarding part of my job.” He’s used his creative skills to foster real change for many not-for-profit and charitable organizations, including the World Wildlife Fund, Kids Help Phone, War Child, and the Canadian Cancer Society. One of the youngest and most innovative CDs in the country, Chris might just have changed your life. Men: check your liquor cabinet and the brand of your latest underwear. Chris created the wildly popular “Wiserwood” campaign for Wiser’s Whiskey and the “Guy at Home in His Underwear” for Stanfield’s—named one of the top five social media campaigns in the world at the influential SXSW conference in 2011. ■ Top 10 After 10 A healing journey O riginally from Listuguj Mi’gmaq First Nation in Quebec, Sonia went west after Bishop’s. Working in the field of First Nations health in the summers while studying at the University of Alberta sharpened her awareness of the many health concerns in First Nations communities. She realized she wanted to influence government policy through research and program development. Hired by the Assembly of First Nations in 2004, Sonia began to have her say in making sure government money was put to good use. In 2005, Health Canada announced Upstream Investment program funding of $700 million (since renewed for $660 million) to address such issues as suicide, diabetes, maternal health and early childhood development with the goal of developing policies and programs to be rolled out into various communities. Along the way Sonia worked with the First Nations Information Governance Committee to develop a tool on principles of research that continues to guide her work today: Ownership, Control, Access and Possession. She also gained valuable experience in the area of Indian Residential Schools (IRS), managing a team to ensure necessary health supports were readily available to former IRS students during their healing journey. As an adjunct professor at Laurentian University, she is currently investigating the use of tobacco among First Nations youth. One encouraging result: when young people learn about the traditional uses of tobacco they begin to feel empowered and proud of their identity and linkage to their past which influences their decisions of today. Sonia’s career so far has been a journey in the cause of healing for the First Nations. Her work involves extensive travel across Canada as well as internationally. “Part of my job is to ensure communities have access to quality services and equality of services.” Obstacles remain but the goal is clear: “to establish a comprehensive health service model that is developed, implemented, and led by First Nations.” ■ Sonia Isaac-Mann ’95 Assistant Director of Health Assembly of First Nations, Ottawa Sonia graduated with a BSc in Biology from Bishop’s and an MSc in Medical Sciences – Public Health Sciences from the University of Alberta. Mergers, acquisitions and moustaches S teve has enjoyed a successful career in Investment Banking in Canada and Europe. While studying at Bishop’s, Steve interned for two summers at RBC Capital Markets in Toronto and on graduation secured a full-time position there. He moved to the UK in 1998 to work for a leading European bank, wanting to gain international experience in a key centre for global finance. While there, Steve advised on a number of significant transactions for leading global clients, including Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. “Working in London afforded me an opportunity to advise a range of clients from a variety of countries across Europe and beyond, as well as a chance to live in one of the world’s great cities.” Steve returned to Canada from London in 2005 to join CIBC. He has continued his Investment Banking career, advising clients across a range of industries, including Rio Tinto on its $45 billion acquisition of Alcan, the largest ever Metals & Mining transaction at that time, and more recently Leon’s on its acquisition of The Brick. Steve also devotes considerable time to community and charitable initiatives. For several years he has led CIBC’s contribution to “Movember”, a moustache growing fundraising campaign in support of Prostate Cancer Canada, with the team raising over $1.7 million to-date. CIBC has been ranked #1 nationally and globally for fundraising for a number of Steve Losty ’96 years. Steve was recently appointed to the Managing Director, Mergers & Audit & Finance Committee of the Board Acquisitions, Investment Banking of Directors of Prostate Cancer Canada. ■ CIBC World Markets Inc., Toronto Steve graduated with a BBA, Major in Finance and Minor in Economics, from Bishop’s. FALL 2013 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE 11 Top 10 After 10 Against the odds W Geoff MacDonald ’92 Founding Partner, CIO and co-CEO of EdgePoint Investment Group Inc., Toronto Geoff graduated with a BBA from Bishop’s and an MBA from the University of Windsor and earned his CFA designation in 1997. hen Geoff co-founded EdgePoint Investment Group in 2008, a business reporter at the National Post wrote: “It takes guts to launch a new fund company near the bottom of the most vicious bear market in most investors’ lifetimes.” But Geoff maintained at the time, “an increased emphasis on sales and marketing in the industry took the focus away from what matters most: investment results for the end investor.” And so he launched a small investor-led mutual fund company driven by individuals with investment backgrounds. Geoff knows small. He hails from Canada’s smallest province, PEI, and spent four years at Bishop’s before eventually settling in Toronto. In the world of fi nance, however, his story is large. He worked as an Analyst/Portfolio Manager for the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan (1994-98) where he successfully man- aged a Canadian equity portfolio in excess of $1 billion. As Vice President at Investco Trimark (1998-2007), he continued to enjoy success: under his management, for example, assets of an income growth fund grew from $2.7 billion to over $8 billion. Barron’s named Geoff one of the 50 best fund managers of 2007 and the World Economic Forum selected him as a “Young Global Leader” in 2009. No wonder EdgePoint can cite many gains in its five years, such as all portfolios returning top quartile performance and assets growing to over $5 billion. Geoff claims: “My professional accomplishments result from executing a deceptively simple idea—focusing solely on the end investor, helping lead a staff of only 33 individuals to compete against companies with 300-800 employees, and stealing a bit of market share every day since our launch of EdgePoint.” ■ A legendary bagel T Vince Morena ’93 President and Co-owner, St-Viateur Bagel Montreal Vince graduated with a BBA in Human Resources from Bishop’s. 12 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE FALL 2013 he challenge for Vince was not how to make a great bagel, but how to expand a small family business. After all, Vince and his brothers Nick and Robert started making bagels at the age of 14—by hand, just as they are still made today. When their father, Joe Morena, bought out his partner in 1994, Vince joined the family business on a full time basis, bringing what he had learned about the food and service industry from his year as manager and event planner at Le Crystal reception hall in Montreal. “Having the energy and drive that comes with youth, I immediately started to push the business in new directions,” says Vince. To increase production, Vince opened a store in 1995 at the Esposito Super Market in St Laurent. A year later, he designed and built St-Viateur Bagel and Café on Mont Royal, a place he calls “ an extension of myself.” In 1998, the café concept extended to include catering and by 2001 had evolved into a full-service restaurant in NDG’s trendy Monkland Village. 2008 saw the launch of Canada’s fi rst online bagel shop: stviateurbagel.com. “I was able to use our growing popularity to sell our niche product online,” explains Vince. The company ships bagels all across North America, selling over 10,000 dozen online in 2012. With retail stores outfitted to service a growing wholesale network, St-Viateur bagels can now be found in over 400 stores in different regions of Canada. “We believe this network represents the future for us and aim to double the number of stores carrying our bagels within the next two years.” Long a Montreal institution, St-Viateur Bagel has achieved near celebrity status. It has been featured on television’s Today Show, the Anthony Bourdain Show, and Food Network’s Glutton for Punishment. Proud that “we sell every bagel we make,” Vince lists William Shatner and Steven Spielberg among his online customers. ■ Top 10 After 10 The quintessential roving reporter I n 2006, after almost ten years reporting for The Toronto Star, Jennifer chose to go overseas even though newspapers were shrinking, not expanding, their ranks of foreign correspondents. “It was a huge risk,” says Jennifer. “But then— and now—I didn’t want to be the kind of person who looks back on her life and thinks, ‘I wonder what I could have done if only I’d tried that.’” Eight days after arriving at Heathrow, Jennifer landed a job in the newsroom of the Associated Press, the world’s largest news agency. Fleet Street. In AP’s busy London bureau, she reported on British and international politics, the justice system, and terrorism, and wrote features on such topics as the Royal Family and illegal drugs. For five years, she saw history close up, on assignment from the White House, the Palace of Westminster, Buckingham Palace, G8 conferences, NATO summits, and the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. She even filed a news alert on UN sanctions from a plane 35,000 feet above the Atlantic. While becoming a better journalist, Jennifer also learned “reporters can do more than write.” From Fleet Street, she moved into the world of diplomacy as the Head of Communications at Canada’s High Commission in the UK. “I learned a whole new set of skills, ranging from how to work with our Prime Minister’s office to how much red and white wine an afternoon reception requires.” In November 2012, Jennifer returned to The Toronto Star as an investigative reporter with a mandate to write highly detailed stories of national and international significance. For example, she helped expose loopholes in Canada’s laws that allow sex offenders to travel freely abroad and abuse children—a story which resulted in the Minister of Public Safety vowing to solve the problem. Jennifer does not wonder, “What if? Only, what’s next?” ■ Jennifer Quinn ’94 Journalist, The Toronto Star, Toronto Jennifer graduated with a BA in Honours History from Bishop’s and a Bachelor of Journalism from Ryerson University. People matter W hen Chad arrived at Bishop’s in the fall of 1990, little did he know his time at the university would open up a world of friendships and personal growth that continue to enhance his life to this day. Chad’s cheerful personality helped him become an active member of campus life: he served as an RA and as President of the Students’ Representative Council for two successive terms. “I learned discipline and judgment, and that you must conduct yourself with integrity,” he says. “It also helps if you acquire the ability to deal with all types of individuals and personalities.” After Bishop’s, Chad indulged his love of politics, working for the Honourable Jean Charest DCL ’13, at the time one of only two Progressive Conservative MPs sitting in Parliament, and then with The Right Honourable Joe Clark. But after many years in the political arena, Chad turned to another love: sports. He served with the Royal Canadian Golf Association and the Ottawa Senators Hockey Club, where he was the only Director of Player Services in the NHL. In 2012 Chad jumped back into the political fray as Director of Government Affairs for Canada Post, Canada’s largest employer and primary postal operator. “It’s a fascinating job, because we must meet the shifting digital and physical delivery needs of Canadians while also becoming financially self-sufficient.” Chad remains passionate about his support for Roger’s House, the pediatric palliative care centre he helped build in Ottawa in honour of his late friend and mentor, NHL coach Roger Neilson. “I start every day with the knowledge that my worst day, and that of my wife and children, is much better than some people’s best.” “My years at Bishop’s rank among the greatest of my life so far, and my Bishop’s network is integral to my personal and professional success,” he concludes. ■ Chad Schella ’94 Director of Government Affairs Canada Post Corporation, Ottawa Chad graduated with a BA in Honours Political Studies from Bishop’s. FALL 2013 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE 13 Distant Education Students go abroad to learn Bishop’s at the Plaza del Ayuntamiento (the City Hall Square) of Valencia, near where classes were held Following a formula in Valencia Prof. Myriam Pruneau (Modern Languages) H aving lived in Valencia for four years, Prof. Pruneau felt comfortable taking her Bishop’s students to her “second home” for a Spanish immersion course. With its sunny climate, seaside location and ample cultural offerings, Spain’s third largest city made the perfect setting to encourage students to learn Spanish. During their month in Valencia, students spoke only Spanish in class and at “home,” since they boarded with Spanish families. On Mondays, the Tandem Language Exchange gave students the chance to practice Spanish with a native speaker who replied in English or French. BU students who mingled with foreign students at the language school found that “sometimes the easiest way of communication was, in fact, Spanish.” Most importantly, learning Spanish meant participating in an extensive cultural program. Students sampled everything from volleyball, Olympic games, a barbecue, and camping on the beach, to a variety of museums dedicated to such matters as bullfighting, modernity and the fi ne arts. Throw in wine tasting, salsa classes, a bike trip, a karaoke party, a visit to the futuristic City of Arts and Sciences, a Flamenco show, and dinner at a typical Spanish bodega, and you have a complete formula for mastering a new language in an enjoyable way. ■ 14 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE FALL 2013 Bishop’s in Egypt on the West Bank across from Luxor in front of two colossal statues of the pharaoh Amunhotep III Students climbed into the “Red” pyramid at Dashur, the first true pyramid built by Sneferu Taking elevations on the west side of the gate Digging it in Jordan Dr. Robert Chadwick (Religion) A team of Canadian archaeologists returned to central Jordan for another season of excavations in the spring 2012. The majority of the 25 participants came from Ontario universities, but ten, including three professors, were from Bishop’s. Dr. Chadwick was the field director during the 2012 season. Prof. Michele Daviau from Wilfred Laurier, who initiated the project at a site called Khirbat al-Mudayna (the mound of ruins), assisted him. The two have worked together at the site since 1996. Khirbat al-Mudayna was a heavily fortified village occupied for about three centuries during the Iron Age II before being abandoned. The entrance consists of a large, six-chambered gate where much excavation activity has gone on over the years. Excavations in 2012 concentrated on The excavation team at the bottom of a tomb areas outside the main city gate where a number of rooms dedicated to domestic activities were located and excavated. “The big fi nd of the season was a tomb site that also dated from the Iron Age (circa 750 BC) which was in the process of being robbed by the locals,” says Chadwick. “We quickly mounted a rescue/salvage operation to recover as much material as possible before it ended up on the black market. In the end we found only broken and fragmentary material. No whole pots and no complete human burials. The good stuff had already been taken.” “The artifacts we found, however, enabled us to date the burial to the middle of the 8th century BC and to make important comparisons with other sites in the area.” Canadian members of the international team plan to return next summer. ■ Far from the beaten path in Egypt Prof. Darren Matthews (Classical Studies) I magine a Bishop’s student explaining how Egyptian artists decorated tombs, her contemporary voice echoing in the unfi nished tomb of the 12th century BCE royal vizier, Ramose. Or another student discussing ancient Egyptian temple architecture while standing next to the inner sanctum of the god Horus in the most complete surviving temple at Edfu. Students in Prof. Matthews’ spring course gained a unique opportunity to present their research on location in the land of the Pharaohs. After two weeks of intensive class work at Bishop’s, Prof. Matthews and 13 students flew to Egypt for two weeks of exploring sites of historical and archaeological significance. Although they visited such tourist attractions as the Giza pyramids, the Karnak Temple, and the Valley of the Kings, they also travelled to many lesser-known and seldom visited places. Matthews recalls the “long bumpy threehour bus ride” from Giza 30 km south to Meidum to see the fi rst attempt to build a pyramid with smooth sides. Except for the police guards, “we had the pyramid all to ourselves.” Inside, Matthews and his students made the long climb down into the burial chamber; outside, they understood why this pyramid failed, its angle so steep that cracks appeared in the casing and some of the outer structure collapsed. The class found themselves virtually alone again at Dashur when visiting two pyramids Pharaoh Sneferu ordered built: the “Bent” pyramid and the fi rst true pyramid, the socalled “Red” pyramid. “We returned to the bus exhausted after a long morning,” says Matthews. “Climbing in and out of pyramids is arduous, hot work!” As one student said, no doubt speaking for the whole class, “I now know the history of pyramid building because I feel it in my tired legs!” ■ Students tour the gardens at the MST national school in Săo Paulo Students labour in an agroecological “Mandala” garden at an MST settlement in Paraná Back to the land in Brazil Dr. Bruce Gilbert (Liberal Arts) D r. Gilbert offers a course called “Social Movements and Social Change” that requires travelling to learn with your hands as well as your head. Last May, 16 undergraduate and two graduate students from Bishop’s and six other Canadian universities joined Dr. Gilbert in Brazil to study what may well be the world’s largest and most dynamic social movement: The Landless Workers of Brazil (MST). With support from the Catholic Church and many international organizations, the MST helps poor and marginalized Brazilians turn under-utilized farmlands into cooperative, agricultural communities. Students sought to understand and evaluate how the MST mobilizes and organizes some 1.5 million members under intimidating and often violent circumstances. Students met with MST leaders at its national school near Sao Paulo, but their most valuable learning came through extended visits to several MST communities. There, theory became practice as students worked the land alongside Brazilians. ■ FALL 2013 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE 15 MY SPACE Maxime Picard In February 1891 fire broke out in the attic of New Arts (now Johnson). The system of heating by furnaces through hot air ducts ensured it would spread rapidly. The flames leapt to the Chapel, and Old Arts (now McGreer) was saved only by the steady streams of water from the Sherbrooke fire brigade's steam fire engine and the heroic efforts of firemen and members of the Bishop’s community who clambered about on the roof, extinguishing fires started by flying embers. New and improved buildings opened in 1892. A cloister passage (the arches) was constructed in 1894, completing the northeast corner of what became The Quad. An enclosed walkway was built atop the arches in 1992—thanks to grants from the provincial and federal governments, as well as support from the Learning for Life Capital Campaign, to fund a major renovation on campus. The University added an inviting social space, shown above, in 2012-13. 16 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE FALL 2013 Donor Appreciation Report 2012-13 Principal’s Message T he cohesiveness of the Bishop’s community has been a defi ning characteristic of our University throughout its 170-year history. It struck me immediately when I joined the University five years ago, and I continue to be reminded of it on a daily basis. The names listed on the following pages exemplify our exceptional community spirit. During the 2012-13 year, 2062 alumni, parents, friends, faculty, staff, students and corporations joined together by making charitable gifts to the University, sending a powerful message about the importance of our model of excellence in undergraduate education. Gifts of all sizes are vital to the continued success and growth of our University. Collectively, $2,434,803 was donated this year and injected directly into important projects on campus, such as providing fi nancial resources to students through the scholarship, awards and bursaries program; supplying our library with new electronic and print resources; offering funding to our extensive number of student clubs; funding internship and co-op education opportunities; supporting our varsity and intramural sports programs; and more. Every day, every Bishop’s student is touched in some way by your generous philanthropic support. I extend my heartfelt thanks to each of you in our community of supporters who made an important impact on our University with your donations this year.

A reservoir of energy Bishop’s operates the first geothermal district heating system in Canada G one is the ugly 75 ft. high chimney towering over our buildings as a symbol of pollution. A fully subsidized investment of $8 million over three years, largely from the Ministry of Education, has led to a friendlier campus—visually and environmentally. Indeed Gaz Métro has replaced the meters twice already to allow for the University’s greatly reduced consumption of natural gas. Michel Caron, Director of Building and Grounds Services, summarizes the innovative energy measures as follows: Objectives Energy loop • Put in place a concept that enables the utilization of cost effective energy sources. • Reduce our emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG). Initiatives Phase I (2010-11) Decentralization of the heating system: in place of one inefficient steam heating central plant, we now have 24 high efficiency natural gas furnaces (water heaters) in 12 mechanical rooms across the campus. Most operate with a condensation recovery system to put energy into our loop. Phase II (2011-12) Introduction of the energy loop and the geothermal field: under the soccer field, between Abbott Hall and the W.B. Scott arena, lies a geothermal field consisting of 57 wells, 158–161 meters deep, each with an energy capacity of 3-4 tons. The field acts as a reservoir of energy, removing heat in the winter and putting energy back in the summer. Our new source of geothermal power consists of 25% electricity from Hydro-Québec and 75% from free underground thermal energy. Results • Annual savings of approximately $500,000 (reference year 2006-07), reducing our energy costs by a third, mainly in natural gas. • Equivalent reductions: energy consumption of 350 houses of 2,000 sq. ft. or 2,364 tons (66% reduction) of CO2 used by 1,400 cars. Energy plant (old central plant) first stage heatpump (energy loop) Our future • Provide energy to the new Sports Centre from the energy loop. • Gradually reduce our remaining use of fossil fuels. • Become a carbon neutral campus in 2016 based on direct GHG emissions. Angela Lanza, this year’s Elizabeth Harvey Memorial Sustainable Development Intern, is working with Enviro-access over the summer to calculate the right figure of our remaining GHG emissions so we can formulate plans for further reduction. ■ Geothermal vault www.ubishops.ca/sdb FALL 2013 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE 29 Campus notes Getting fit for the future Outside the classroom Dr. Gordon Barker (History) published a new book entitled New arena under construction behind the Sports Centre W ork is well underway on the major overhaul of the John H. Price Sports Centre. The $30 million expansion and renovation of the 1970s facility, begun in May 2013, is scheduled to be completed by December 2014. “Visibility is a theme of both the new side and the renovation,” said Brian Breckles, Director of Athletics and Recreation. “Old walls will be converted to windows and bright lounge spaces will be added.” Highlights are an 800-seat arena, a double gym, a 4000 sq. ft. fitness room, team locker rooms and a terrace overlooking Coulter Field. The challenge of communication A momentous year for the SRC, 2013 marked our 120th anniversary, giving us an opportunity to consider new strategies for serving our student population. Five SRC executive members for 2013-14, who now remain on campus during the summer, decided to focus on communication and determine how, in a social media driven society, to best communicate with students. Building on last year’s introduction of online voting and surveys and a conscious effort to utilize more effectively tools such as Facebook and Twitter, we hope to progress further by devising new programs that will enhance two-way communication.

Volunteers serve on our BUAA Executive, and recent changes to it include: • thank you to Cathy McLean ’82 who gave plenty of time over the past two years while acting as President and promoting events in the Ottawa chapter; • welcome to Trevor Lovig ’96 who has agreed to volunteer his time and expertise as our new President-Elect; and • welcome to Mark Lawson ’09 who will help us engage younger alumni by figuring out the type of events to plan and the best methods of communication. Students also serve as volunteers in our Student Alumni Association, contributing to the success of many events on campus, including Homecoming. Volunteers in our chapters from coast to coast (and beyond) organize events to help us achieve our objectives. With their assistance, we aim to hold a social, cultural and family event in each chapter—these in addition to business networking and mentoring events that have been well received by alumni in several cities. Bishop’s is a special place that fosters a sense of service. This year’s valedictorian Katie LeClair ’13 said, “We hold doors open for each other.” The BUAA Executive believes in carrying this torch of opening doors and works to encourage alumni from all generations to maintain a close connection to one another and to our school. Thanks to all the volunteers who’ve strengthened the bond over the years. We hope others will choose to help in the future and will contact our Advancement Office to learn how: mmcbrine@ubishops.ca. 32 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE FALL 2013 3 Four Shades of Purple event, Toronto 1.

Santoni ’52, Maria Theresa Barney Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Denison University in Ohio, is the author of an article entitled “God, Creation, and Rebellion in Camus: Ambivalent? Inconsistent? Or, Finally, Incoherent?”, which appeared in Revolutionary Hope, and questions Camus’s emphasis on rebellion in the light of his proposed atheism. Dr. Santoni presented a paper at the meetings of the American Philosophical Association, Central, in New Orleans this past February. He was also chair and discussant in a panel of the Sartre Circle held as part of the Eastern Division Conference of the American Philosophical Association in Atlanta in December 2012. Dr. Santoni’s writing continues to appear in publications outside of strict philosophy, with articles recently appearing in Hospitality in Atlanta as well as the Sentinel and the Newark Advocate. His 2003 book, Sartre on Violence – Curiously Ambivalent, continues to generate discussion and controversy among other scholars. His response is forthcoming in Sartre Studies International. santoni@denison.edu Dr. Jeanne Louise Eddisford ’76 undertook applied research in psychological intervention and effectiveness in family medicine in a controlled experimental study at St. Michael’s Hospital, University of Toronto, from 1987-90.

FALL 2013 BISHOP’S UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE 39 Alumni Perspectives W hat drives us to tend our gardens, flee the city for the country cottage, or simply seek out a bit of green space on our lunch breaks? Consciously or not, we all have deeply rooted physical, psychological and emotional connections with nature—a natural affi nity for life that noted Harvard biologist Edward O. Wilson calls “biophilia” and that psychologists Stephen and Rachel Kaplan describe as “vital to healthy human functioning.” Nature has been a sanctuary and healer since ancient Egyptians prescribed walks in the garden for the mentally disturbed. Science now supports the anecdotal evidence that being in a natural environment, even just gazing at greenery, relieves stress, depression and mental fatigue, refreshes our power of concentration, lowers blood pressure and decreases muscle tension. And of course there are the more intangible sensory benefits and aesthetic appeal of foliage, flowers, wood, water and stone. 1 ENTRY 2 3 DIVERSITY 4 5 Common elements of a healing garden Defined entry. Whether it’s a formal gate, an arbour or simply a couple of pots fl anking a path, such a demarcation signifi es you’re stepping into a separate space, another world. Many gardeners claim their garden is an escape from reality; I say it’s an escape to reality. Diversity. Variety isn’t just the spice of life; variety is life. Biodiversity—a mix of plants from perennials and annuals to trees and shrubs— means not only a healthier garden for flora and fauna alike, but also a more satisfying one. The more abundant and complex the setting, as long as it is perceived as harmonious and coherent, the more powerful the psychological benefit for stress relief and restoration. Enclosure. Whether the entire garden or just a part of it is enclosed, such a space offers privacy, security and a sense of sanctuary, harkening back to the spatial archetype of the cave, from which we could look out knowing we were protected. 6 7 8 Sense of mystery. Your garden should beguile, stimulate and involve you. It should unfold in a series of pleasurable surprises. Scrims and screens, curving paths that disappear around a corner, a glimpse of a structure and/or the sound of water are ways to invest even a small garden with allure. Natural forms. The natural shapes of plants, hills, rocks and ponds are deeply pleasing in a way that hard-edged human constructions are not. Yes, topiaries are fun, but most plants are happier left to their natural devices. Water. A garden without water in some form is a garden without life. Plants thirst for it, wildlife flock to it and its sound, its movement or reflective calm enchants us. Whether pond, pool, waterfall, fountain, bubbler, stream or a simple stone basin for the birds, water is an enduring symbol of grace to which we all respond. Space for one or more. Ideally, the garden should allow you to retreat in solitude or share your space with others. Light and dark. Areas should offer different combinations of sun, shade and shelter from wind. Such variance gives you greater use of the garden throughout the day and offers microclimates that will sustain a wider range of plants. MYSTERY 40 Karen York ’69 is a botanical editor and writer based in Victoria. A proponent of horticultural therapy and firm believer in nature’s healing power, she is the author of The Holistic Garden: Creating Spaces for Health and Healing and has edited numerous gardening books and written for a variety of publications including Canadian Gardening, Garden Making, Gardening Life, International Architecture & Design, The Globe and Mail and Chatelaine.
