Principal
Issues
any of you will have seen fairly extensive
coverage of Bishop’s University in the
media over the course of the summer.
Unfortunately labor conflict is not the reason we’d
like to have journalists descending on our Quad. I
am happy to report that all units of the union
(faculty, contract faculty, librarians, non-academic
staff) ratified new collective agreements in August,
2007. Although the negotiation process was
lengthy and tense, hard work and commitment
from both sides led to a satisfactory conclusion in
time to limit the impact on our students. Everyone
on campus has returned to our primary mission:
providing students with a special Bishop’s
experience and an exceptional education.
This process showed that Bishop’s employees
form a cohesive community. Colleagues are more
than just colleagues; they are close friends and
family members. One observation is clear: all
Bishop’s employees, regardless of their position,
care deeply about Bishop’s and take pride in the
education we provide.
Bishop’s is facing a challenging period in its
history. Inadequate funding by the provincial
government and a serious decline in enrolment
certainly offer challenges given that a huge
majority of Bishop’s revenues come from
government grants and tuition fees. But Bishop’s
has faced difficult times before. Numerous fires.
The Depression. Two World Wars. The creation of
the CEGEP system taking with it half our student
population. Government imposed cuts of 25% to
our operating budget in the mid 1990’s. The
Bishop’s community has always risen to the
challenge, and 2007 will be no different.
M
Robert Poupart
In the coming months, we will continue
discussions on campus about the operations and
strategic direction of our University. Senate will
begin a complete evaluation of the academic
programs. A strategic plan, including six strategic
goals (see box below), will be explored further and
operationalized. A redeployment plan for nonacademic staff will be carried out providing
support for strategic areas of the University, while
allowing us to rationalize expenses where possible.
And we will continue, with our colleagues from
other Quebec universities, to lobby the Quebec
government to wisely invest in the future of our
province – indeed the world – by directing more
support to universities.
The entire campus community will be
involved in this process. Collectively we will
strengthen Bishop’s. We will retain the best of
Bishop’s, while looking for new initiatives to
expand our appeal and reputation, solidifying our
place among Canada’s finest.
You, our graduates and friends, continue to
play a role in the future of your University. Many
of you write to me or to others on campus with
observations, ideas, suggestions. We read your
letters and hope you will continue your
conversation with Bishop’s. We’d also love for you
to converse with others about your Bishop’s
experience. Our 11,000 alumni and 1,850 families
of current students are in fact our best recruitment
staff. Tell people your Bishop’s story. Many of you
will soon receive an invitation to support this
year’s Annual Campaign. I hope you will say yes,
sending a strong message to our students and others
that you believe in the Bishop’s experience.
The direction of the following strategic goals was approved by the Corporation and Senate this past spring.
Please send your comments to Prof. Sylvie Béquet: sbequet@ubishops.ca.
Strategic Goal 1
Strategic Goal 4
To attract and retain outstanding students with the potential and desire
to excel academically, assume leadership roles, engage productively
with the local and global communities and perform creatively and
athletically.
To enhance Bishop’s research capacity to fully support research
performance and its dissemination to the wider world.
Strategic Goal 2
Through excellence in teaching, to offer students challenging programs
that integrate academic rigor with co-curricular activities, service
learning, community and civic engagement, and opportunities for
interdisciplinary study. Graduates of these programs will have strong
critical thinking and communication skills (including increased
competencies in languages), will be empowered to assume leadership
roles, and will contribute to the international community.
Strategic Goal 3
Strategic Goal 5
To actively foster intellectual, social, cultural and economic
development and innovation in the region, the province, the country
and the world, with particular attention to the Americas. While
reaffirming its English-speaking character, Bishop’s University will
develop a greater openness to, and ability to operate in, other languages
of the Americas.
Strategic Goal 6
To achieve these strategic goals, Bishop’s University will operate in an
environmentally responsible manner so as to promote the wellness of
individuals, the community and the natural world.
To attract and retain outstanding faculty and staff committed to the core
values and activities of Bishop’s University as embodied in our Vision
and Mission.

Excerpts from the citations
Richard Gwyn
Janyne Hodder
English by birth, Mr. Gwyn emigrated to Canada in 1954 and
in short order embarked on a career as a journalist in Halifax. He
rapidly established himself in his chosen path through stints as
parliamentary correspondent for United Press International, as
writer/reporter with Thomson Newspapers, then as Ottawa editor
for McLean-Hunter, and as Parliamentary correspondent and
contributing editor for Time Canada.... He joined the Toronto Star
in 1973 and established a reputation as a guiding light in the
Parliamentary Press Gallery… and later covered such monumental
events as the demise of the Soviet Union, the fall of the Berlin Wall,
and, further afield, the Gulf War and the end of apartheid in South
Africa.
As an outsider who, like so many Canadians, has adopted this
country as his own, he has plumbed the breadth and depth of our
nation... has developed a very broadly informed and unique
perspective on national and international issues, and has brought
his interests to bear on an astonishingly varied array of subjects....
His talents have not gone unnoticed. He received national
newspaper awards in 1980 and 1985, and, also in 1985, the national
magazine award. In 1982, he was named author of the year by the
Foundation for the Advancement of Canadian Letters. His book,
Nationalism Without Walls: The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Canadian, was recently listed by the Literary Review of Canada as
one of the 100 most important books in Canada…(Literary Review
of Canada March 2006). In 2002 he was appointed Officer to the
Order of Canada....
Stephen Sheeran
Dean of Humanities
It is my honor to present to you an outstanding and inspiring
teacher, effective and innovative civil servant, respected and
admired Principal and administrator.… Educated at McGill, trained
as a teacher in the Bahamas, where she is now the President of the
College, Quebec gained an exceptional civil servant when Janyne
returned to join the Department of Education and rose to the
position of Assistant Deputy Minister. She turned an ordinary
bureaucratic job into a leadership role, and put English education
on the map both in her daily work and as a pivotal member of the
Chambers Task Force and Chairman of her own commission on
community schools.
Arriving at Bishop’s in 1995, she sensed, due to serious
government budget cuts, the need for restructuring and she chaired
a committee that recommended the necessary cuts in as painless a
way as possible, allowing the University to go forward in a positive
manner.… Realizing that more students were needed and that more
scholarships, awards and bursaries would attract them, she
persuaded the Corporation and Foundation to proceed with a
financial capital campaign for $15 million, the highest goal in
Bishop’s history....
[She] has given us an image from coast to coast of openness,
tolerance, biculturalism and friendliness .… For her contribution to
English education in Quebec, teaching and learning in the
Bahamas, and to this community and our University where we took
great pride in her leadership, I ask you to bestow the degree of
Doctor of Civil Law.…
Alex K. Paterson ’52, DCL ’74
Chancellor 1995-2005

Bruce Stavert
Ronald Wright
Ordained in 1965, the young Reverend Bruce Stavert
demonstrated the soundness of both his character and his training
by ministering effectively to an exceptional variety of charges .…
In spite of his forays into Upper Canada and the Prairies, Bruce
remained a Quebecer at heart. Thus it was with great pleasure that
we saw him return home as the eighth successor of Bishop George
Jehoshaphat Mountain, founder of our University. In 1991
Alexander Bruce Stavert became the eleventh Bishop of Quebec
and thus Visitor of Bishop’s University....
As Bishop of Quebec, and since 2004 as Metropolitan of the
Ecclesiastical Province of Canada, Archbishop Stavert has
enormous administrative responsibilities. But he has managed not
to let these overwhelm his dedication to spiritual and social issues.
His commitment to humane and liberal values is represented by his
staunch work for the Council of the North, which focuses on the
needs of native communities in northern Canada; by his opposition
to discrimination, symbolized by his official presence at the
consecration of Gene Robinson as Bishop of New Hampshire; and
by his key role in promoting dialogue and co-operation between the
Roman Catholic and Anglican communions in Canada.
It is my pleasure and privilege to present to you … an
illustrious alumnus, a great humanitarian and a very distinguished
Canadian churchman.…
Garry Retzleff
Professor Emeritus of English
Ronald Wright is one of Canada’s most distinguished and
accomplished writers. He is also surely the most versatile, having
been published, praised, and prized in a wide variety of genres,
from travel writing through fiction to science writing to history.
Born in London, England in 1948, he studied archaeology at
Cambridge University before taking a trip to the Americas which
has lengthened into what, so far, has been the rest of his life. He
participated in Mayan digs, he farmed, drove trucks, became a
graduate student at Calgary, added the Inca language Quechua and
some Mayan to his existing Spanish, he moved to Ontario; and
finally, in the 1980s, he began to write. And how well he did so!…
Despite the impressive variety in his work, and his obvious
polyvalence, some major common threads structure all his work,
and also do him honour as a man. One of these is a clear and
beautiful prose style, capable of expressing simultaneously the
world’s richness, sadness and humour. Another is the concern,
which runs through his work from its beginning, for a more
sustainable, moderate and intelligent relationship with nature. And
last but not least is his determined effort to understand non-western
cultures in their own terms, to grasp their history as they themselves
understood it, and to interpret this reality for a wider audience. As
environmental and climate change, the massive death of species,
and resource exhaustion loom over our early twenty-first century,
we need to listen to his voice.… His writing is beautiful, but it is
not comfortable. It merits the recognition of an institution of
learning, as it both seeks the truth and then resolutely speaks it....

and Environmental Studies and Dr. Stephen Black Professor

Landslide victory for Robert Ghiz ’96 in P.E.I.
The new Liberal Premier won 23 of 27 districts in the provincial election.
was going to go through Bishop’s – move
to Toronto – and make a fortune,” Robert
Ghiz laughs, when asked if he planned a
career in politics.
The Political Studies graduate is the newest
Premier of Prince Edward Island. Running on the
platform, “Islanders First for A Change,” Robert
took 23 of 27 seats reversing the standings in the
legislature.
Pundits were predicting a close race.
“It was May 28th. I was watching the
election with my family at my mother’s house.
The first results came in strong but we didn’t
want to get too excited. Then at the end, we got
a much larger vote than expected. It was a thrill
to have won with such a lead,” said Robert.
The five major issues highlighted in his
campaign were health care, doctor recruitment, a
property assessment freeze in the province,
promotion of the bioscience industry and cuts to
the gas tax.
Robert was the Leader of the Official
Opposition in PEI’s provincial legislature from
“I
2003-2007. Previously, the Charlottetown native
worked as an aide for Deputy Prime Minister
Sheila Copps and as a lobbyist for the Bank of
Nova Scotia. In 2001, he joined the office of
Prime Minister Jean Chretien where he served as
Atlantic Canada advisor before running for the
leadership of the Liberal Party of Prince Edward
Island in 2003.
Rob’s father, Joe Ghiz, was premier of PEI
from 1986-1993. He received an Honorary
Degree from Bishop’s and graduated with his
son, before passing away from cancer in 1996.
Their graduation was the last family trip they had
together, Robert said. Robert’s younger sister
Joanne, graduated from Bishop’s in 2005.
“We are all fortunate we went to Bishop’s
University and could benefit from the small
community,” said Robert, who is Canada’s
youngest serving Premier. “I personally give
credit to Bishop’s University.”
Sandra Sullivan-Keeley ’93
Question Period with Rob Ghiz
On the Ten-Year-Plan : “People shouldn’t stick around for too long. I would like to continue a ten year career in politics and
be removed by choice.”
On his favorite BU Professor : “Dr. Andrew Johnson was particularly memorable. He was a great teacher, mentor and put
students on the right track. He put me on the right track. He was definitely an inspiration.”
On being called the Best-Dressed-Man in Charlottetown? “No comment.”
Amy Lee Lavoie ’06 makes the cut
Amy Lee earns coveted place at the National Theatre School
his fall, Amy Lee Lavoie becomes the first
Bishop’s graduate to join the playwriting
program at Canada’s most prestigious
theatre conservatory, The National Theatre
School in Montreal. Each year NTS brings
together a highly select group of young artists to
be trained in the various disciplines of dramatic
production. Amy Lee is one of only two student
playwrights chosen from across Canada.
Before beginning her university career, Amy
Lee had already developed a love of writing, but
she was unsure of which medium to pursue. She
considered studying journalism at Carleton, but
ultimately her love of the stage brought her to
Bishop’s where she majored in Drama. During
her three years at Bishop’s, Amy Lee
distinguished herself both as a writer and as an
actor. One of her scripts was the hit of the 2005
T
New Plays Festival and her comic sketches,
lampooning everything from Canadian Idol to
the ordeal of our University health clinic, were
performed by her comedy troupe, Gently Used
Coats, in the London and Hamilton Fringe
Festivals, and on Bishop’s Centennial stage
during Frosh Week. She also performed in
departmental productions of The Hunchback of
Notre Dame, The Visit, and as the Red Queen in
Alice Through the Looking Glass.
Amy Lee looks forward to NTS as a place to
surround herself with creative people and new
challenges. “I look forward to developing my
own process. As a writer I tend to rely on
inspiration to hit, but deadlines are the
professional writer’s reality. I want to be able to
produce work on demand and be happy with the
result.”

Squee Gordon ’60, DCL ’04 says au revoir to Humber, salut to Bishop’s
Photo: Marina Scott-Wickens
Dr. Gordon retired after 25 years as President of Humber Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning and
became President of Bishop’s University Corporation for the next four.
n 1982 when Squee Gordon took the helm,
Humber College had 8,000 students and 90
programs of study; today it offers 150
programs to 18,000 full-time students, 55,000
part-time registrants and 15,000 corporate
learners. As only the second President in
Humber’s 40 year history, Squee played a pivotal
role in transforming the college into a thriving
polytechnic institution with two sprawling
campuses in Toronto’s southwest and northwest
corners, a third regional campus underway in
Orangeville, partnerships with the University of
Guelph and the University of New Brunswick,
and many other specialized learning operations
in the GTA.
Humber had experienced its share of trials
over the years: stringent government cutbacks in
funding, periods of labor strife, years of uneven
enrolment, demand for program rationalization,
and so on. Nevertheless, Squee managed to
advance Humber’s aspirations and ambitions.
“Moving with momentum can work
wonders for morale, motivation, and
accomplishment,” Squee said. “Belief in
ourselves and what we are doing is crucial to
success and, more important, it’s infectious.”
Accolades flowed at the events held last
spring in honour of Squee’s retirement who, at
the time, was the longest serving college
president in Canada. The longevity of his
leadership resulted in a coherence at Humber that
other institutions don’t always enjoy. Squee
received praise as a pioneer, a visionary, a
humanitarian, a team captain, a team player, an
inspirational leader, a friend, an imaginative
guide,
a
great
president.
Especially
commendable, all agreed, is his ability to view
change, be it welcome or not, as something to be
embraced and explored.
“No one I know has meant so much to so many
people in different walks of life. Our journeys
have been inspired and improved by the way you
have coped with every challenge, and challenged
each of us, and made us do far more than we ever
thought we could.”
I
“This is a man who has
mattered,” observes
Wayson Choy, celebrated
writer and Professor
Emeritus of Humber.
Alastair Summerlee, President & Vice-Chancellor,
University of Guelph
Squee’s professional life is characterized by
an unwavering commitment to post-secondary
education, beginning with his own enriched
education: he holds Bachelor’s and Master’s
degrees in History from Bishop’s University, a
Master’s Degree in Educational Administration
from the University of Massachusetts, a Master’s
Degree in Public Administration from Harvard
University, and a Doctorate in Educational
Administration from the University of
Massachusetts. He has held administrative
positions at Bishop’s, Dawson College and
Humber, as well as taught graduate courses and
lectured at many universities, including U. of T.,
McGill, U.B.C., Harvard, and the University of
Texas. He has been a consultant for C.I.D.A. in
Africa and South East Asia, and a Policy Advisor
to the Secretary of State and the Minister for
Employment and Immigration on matters related
to post-secondary education. In 1994, he
evaluated the inspection system for the Further
Education Funding Council in the United
Kingdom.
Squee has earned many honours for his
accomplishments, including honorary degrees
from Bishop’s University, University of Guelph
and University of New Brunswick. In 2006, he
was honoured for his contributions to Canadian
public education at the Annual Tribute Dinner of
the Learning Partnership.
Presently, Squee serves on the Boards of
Canada Basketball, the Learning Partnership, the
Toronto City Summit Alliance, and the Advisory
Committee of the Toronto Waterfront
Revitalization Corporation, as well as the
Corporation of Bishop’s University, of which he
was elected President in May 2007. Squee states
as his priorities:
• to oversee the renewal of academic programs
with a view to addressing 21st century
requirements and stabilizing enrolment;
• to solve financial deficiencies and regain
equilibrium;
• to dispel a climate of mistrust in labour
relations and improve the general mood on
campus.
The Bishop’s community welcomes Squee’s
engagement in this latest capacity.

Patrick Keeley ’93 receives Canada’s Top 40 Under 40 Award
Photo: Marina Scott-Wickens
Congratulations to Patrick as Bishop’s first graduate to be chosen for the prestigious Top 40 Under 40 Award,
organized by the Caldwell Partners Inc. and sponsored by the Globe and Mail.
atrick was one of forty recipients
selected from over 1,400 nominations
from across Canada. The business
achievement award is given to outstanding
leaders in their field under 40 years of age,
based on five criteria: vision and leadership,
innovation and achievement, impact, growth
and development strategy, and community
involvement.
“It has been a tremendous honor and
very humbling to be in the company of so
many accomplished and hard-working
Canadians,” says Patrick, who received the
award last May.
The Social Studies graduate is the
President and Managing Director of RBC
Private Counsel Inc., the investment
counseling arm of the Royal Bank of
Canada which serves individuals, families,
trusts
and
foundations
requiring
discretionary management of $1-million
plus.
Business success has not come without
challenges. In 2003, shortly after losing his
Chicago-based job in a corporate
restructuring, Patrick was diagnosed with
Stage IV non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. The
father-of-two immediately began an
aggressive chemotherapy treatment in
Chicago and then flew back to Toronto to
complete his regimen.
“Three years ago, I never could have
imagined receiving such an accolade,” says
Patrick. “I was fighting cancer, and my main
job was to get healthy. Everything else was
secondary.” Royal Bank generously
accommodated Patrick’s treatment schedule
which required five days of hospitalization
every three weeks. He went into his office
every day between hospital visits and met
many colleagues in Toronto for the first time
hairless and 60 pounds lighter than his
current weight.
He spent his days in the hospital trying
to stay strong by working-out with elastic
exercise bands he strapped to his bed and
doing so many laps of the ward with his IV
in tow, the nurses on the floor nick-named
him “Speedy.” Patrick says that just
thinking of his two young children gave him
strength.
P
Patrick says not a day went by that he
wasn’t called by a Bishop’s friend while in
the hospital. That contact made all the
difference.
The year after his treatment, RBC
named Patrick as President of Canada’s
largest investment counseling firm. Since
his appointment, RBC’s Private Counsel’s
Assets Under Management nearly doubled
and the firm is on pace to complete its
second consecutive record-year of
profitability.
Thankfully, Patrick is in remission from
the cancer. The chances of reoccurrence are
slim after two years and almost nil after five,
say his doctors.
Giving back is imperative to Patrick. He
is on the Development Committee at
Princess Margaret Hospital where he
received his treatment. He also gives
leadership presentations. Often, Patrick
takes the opportunity to discuss his personal
and business challenges. “It is important to
me to share my experiences – especially the
ones that are not all sunshine and roses,”
says Patrick, who spoke at a leadership
seminar at Bishop’s last year held for his
fraternity Sigma Chi.
Last year, he raised $70,000 in Princess
Margaret’s Walk to End Breast Cancer. His
was the second highest total in all of
Canada. “The walk represented a physical
challenge because I was determined to be
healthy enough to walk 60 km. I think many
of my donations came that first year because
people were shocked that I was even
attempting to do it.”
Patrick is married to Sandra SullivanKeeley ’93 and they live in Toronto with
their two children, Annie and Parker. Pat and
Sandra will celebrate their 12th wedding
anniversary in the Eastern Townships this
September.

Welcome to the Guild of the
Venerable Bede
his year St. Mark’s Chapel turned 150. For those who have
enjoyed the privilege of attending the Chapel, it comes as no
surprise that it is a worship centre not only for the students,
faculty and staff of the University and Champlain College, but for the
community as well. St. Mark’s is more than just a chapel; it has a rich
and vibrant history and has been designated as an historical site that
is a popular stop for tourist buses operating in the area.
The first in a series of special events organized to mark the 150th
Anniversary was a special Eucharist service and reunion of the Guild
of the Venerable Bede held June 16-17, 2007. The weekend-long
celebration kicked off with an organ concert, featuring Leslie Martin
Young, performed on St. Mark’s sublime organ.
On Saturday evening, a reception and dinner were held for the
Guild members, their friends, and guests from the University. Sam
Purdy, the dinner speaker, spoke about the Venerable Bede and the
history of the Guild. His presentation was enlivened with wonderful
stories about the antics of Guild members while at Bishop’s.
The Holy Eucharist, celebrated on Sunday morning, was an
occasion long to be remembered. The Most Reverend Bruce Stavert,
Archbishop of Quebec, was the celebrant and Reverend Canon Dr.
John Simons, Principal of the Montreal Diocesan College, served as
the preacher. The Chapel choir performed under the direction of
Melinda Enns and the organists, Pamela Gill Eby and Simon Abbott,

did an outstanding job. The worshippers who filled the
Chapel experienced a sample of the high standard of
worship that has been at the heart of St. Mark’s throughout
its 150 years. That spirit is why the Chapel continues to
play an important role in the University, the College and
the local community. It is also a tribute to the ministry of
Archdeacon Heather Thomson.

Business students win international competition — again!
he final round of the 12th annual NIBS (Network of
International Business Schools) case competition was
hosted by the Dublin Institute of Technology in March.
Eight teams, including the host team, made it to the final round
of this international case competition. Other teams were from
the US, Guatemala, The Netherlands, Finland and Canada
(Concordia and Memorial).
Bishop’s team , who won the event in 2006 (hosted in
Norway), was unsure of their standing as they got off to a
rocky start, losing to Memorial University. However, the team
beat both Guatemala and Finland in the remaining round robin
event, advancing to the semifinals against their arch rival,
Concordia.
The team was presented with the case of Lenova, China’s
largest PC maker, and its attempt to establish a brand name for
itself following its acquisition of IBM’s personal computer
division. In a 4 hour period, the team was required to analyze
the company, understand its problems, recommend a strategic
solution, outline the implementation for this recommended
strategy, and prepare a 20 minute power point presentation.
Following the presentation, the team fielded questions for ten
minutes.
The team was ecstatic when the judges concluded that the
Bishop’s analysis and recommendations were superior to those
of their rival Concordia. BU then met the team from the
Netherlands in the final and went on to enjoy their second

The experience is extremely beneficial for the students as
they interact with business students from different countries,
experience different cultures, and get to use their business
knowledge and skills in competitive situations.
Next year’s NIBS final will be hosted by Coventry

Faculty Enjoy Professional Success
Dr. Benoit A. Bacon (Psychology Department) has been
invited to join the Centre de Recherche en Neuropsychologie et
Cognition (CERNEC), a FRSQ research centre that focuses on
understanding the links between brain function and behavior.
With headquarters at the Université de Montréal, the CERNEC
groups 39 researchers and over 200 graduate students and total
funding is in excess of $25 million. Dr. Bacon joins the
“Sensory Systems and Perception” axis where he will contribute
to research on the visual system.
Dr. Cathy Beauchamp ’70 (School of Education) received
the 2007 Robert J. Menges New Researcher Award of the
American Educational Research Association for her dissertation
(2005). The award recognizes outstanding scholarship by a new
researcher in the areas of postsecondary teaching, evaluation,
and development. Dr. Beauchamp’s dissertation represents a
comprehensive analysis of the literature on reflection in
teaching, which is vast and often criticized for lack of
coherence.
Dr. Gilbert Gagné (Department of Political Studies)
received a Fulbright Award. During his sabbatical leave in 200708, Dr. Gagné will be the Visiting Chair in Canadian Studies at
Duke University in Durham NC. He will be attached to the
Centre for Canadian Studies and the Department of Political
Science. He will teach one undergraduate course and pursue his
research on the Canada-U.S. softwood lumber dispute. The
Canada-U.S. Fulbright Program supports outstanding
researchers doing research on issues relevant to Canada, the
United States and the relationship between the two countries.
Dr. Steve Harvey ’89 (Williams School of Business ) is
part of a team of principal researchers from the Université de
Montréal, Université Laval and McGill University (Douglas
Hospital) who have received funding from the Canadian
Institutes of Health Research. The multi-disciplinary team was
awarded $1.46 million over 5 years for a series of projects in
their proposed program “Developing better diagnosis,
interventions and policies in occupational mental health: A
multi-disciplinary approach.”
Fonds québécois de la recherche sur la nature et les

$109,000 five-year research grant to pursue her research
activities on the sources and oceanic paths of large meltwater
discharge events, and a one-year equipment grant of $19,250 to
purchase a sophisticated microscope and a microwave digester
for palynological analysis.
Dr. Jean Manore from the Department
of History, in collaboration with Dale G.
Miner, recently edited “The Culture of
Hunting in Canada.” Hunting is a pivotal
but little studied aspect of Canadian history,
culture and society. The work covers
elements of the history of hunting from the
pre-colonial period to the present in all
parts of Canada, featuring essays by
practitioners and scholars of hunting and by
pro- and anti-hunting lobbyists. The result
crosses the boundaries between scholarship and personal
reflection, and between academia and advocacy.

Dr. Darren Bardati ’94 (Department of Environmental
Studies and Geography) received a three-year grant of $45,000
for his project on civic participation in watershed management.

12 • Fall 2007 Bishop’s University News
Happenings on campus
Bishop’s summer of labour unrest
t was a hot summer on campus, but not due to scorching heat. On
June 28 over 150 non-academic staff walked off the job. The staff
unit was accredited in April 2004, and in September 2005 began
negotiations for their first collective agreement as part of the APBU
(Association of Professors of Bishop’s University). Bishop’s is the only
Canadian university where regular faculty, librarians, contract faculty
and non-academic staff are part of the same union.
Faculty and librarians remained at work until July 26, when the
University locked out all unionized employees. Intense negotiations
resumed between the University and the union on July 31, and continued
until an agreement in principle was signed on August 6. All employees
were back at work on August 8, and on August 14 three units of the
union (faculty, librarians, and non-academic staff) ratified new three
year collective agreements. Contact faculty ratified theirs on August 28.
The major issues for the University through this process included
working within the University’s financial context and demonstrating
fiscal restraint to the Quebec government, proceeding with a
redeployment restructuring in both academic and non-academic areas,
signing a first collective agreement with non-academic staff, and
ensuring long-term viability for the defined benefit pension plan. The
union was, itself, concerned with concluding a first collective agreement
for non-academic staff, and protecting both jobs and the pension plan.
The picket lines may have been loud at times, but they were always
peaceful and respectful. The majority of services on campus continued,
albeit with reduced hours and services, throughout the labour conflict
due to the efforts of managers and non-unionized employees. The timing
of both the strike and the lockout were both made in an effort to
minimize the impact on students, which, for the most part, was
accomplished.

Research Chair shared with
Université de Sherbrooke
Bishop’s University and the Université de
Sherbrooke created their second joint research
chair. The field of research is the contemporary
history of relations between Europe and Africa.
An investment of $400,000 over five years is
making this chair possible.
The Lucienne Cnockaert Chair will allow
for a better understanding of African
colonization and the phenomena that flow from
it, including the Rwandan genocide and the
difficult process of democratization in African
states. Dr. Patrick Dramé, the first holder of
the chair, will oversee the research projects
associated with it and teach in the History
Departments at both universities.
The first joint chair, held by Dr. Thomas
Brustle, is in Representation Theory of
Algebras.

14 • Fall 2007 Bishop’s University News
n 1966 Wanda and Stanley
Rozynski made a life-altering
decision: leave the cultural hotbed that was Montreal to open a
pottery school in Way’s Mills, a
tiny community in the Eastern
Townships. “We enjoyed Montreal,
and did a lot of work with local
artists; however we were looking
for something more. We had a
studio/school/gallery in Montreal,
but the landlord wanted Wanda and
me to leave so he could convert the
space into apartments to make
more money during Expo 67.”
The couple moved to Way’s
Mills and proceeded to transform
the town’s empty elementary
school into a pottery studio and
residential school. Wanda was
already an accomplished potter
who had studied and taught in New
York and Montreal and whose
works were exhibited across
Canada, the United States, and
Europe. Stanley, who was
responsible for much of the
renovations to the schoolhouse,
was also a talented artist in his own
right – a sculptor whose large and
impressive pieces are on display
throughout their two-acre property.
For over 20 years the school
attracted students from Canada and
the northeastern U.S.A.. The
residential school concept was
perfect for the couple. “For three
months in the summer I was able to
teach pottery in an intensive way to
small groups, providing individual
attention to each student,” says
Wanda. “And there was more – we
both worked to instil a love of art.
To this day we receive letters and
cards from former students who
talk about how their time here
changed them. In fact some of our
earliest students still come by to
use the studio.”
The remaining nine months of
the year gave Wanda and Stanley
time to refine their craft and
produce their own exceptional
works in the sun-filled studio they
had built.
Wanda and Stanley have spent a
lifetime promoting the importance
of art in the world. “There is no life
without art,” says Wanda. “The
feeling that comes from connecting
with or creating something
beautiful is so powerful. Everyone
should enjoy this feeling that artists
strive for every day.”
The couple will continue
influencing artists at Bishop’s –
forever. Although neither are
graduates, they have come to value
the role the University plays in the
Townships. “We have always kept
an eye on what is happening at
Bishop’s, and for a number of years
have planned to do something to
support the Fine Arts Department,”
says Stanley. “We decided now was
the time.”
The Wanda and Stanley Rozynski
Trust Fund was established in July
2007. The first gift to the Fund has
been used to establish the Wanda
Rozynska Scholarship in Fine Arts.
Valued at $3,000 per year, the
scholarship will be awarded to a
returning student in Fine Arts who
has shown the aptitude and desire
necessary to pursue a Studio
Honours Degree. Stanley also
established a charitable gift annuity
with the University, the principle of
which will be added to the fund in
the future.” “Wanda and I plan to
do more for Bishop’s in the future,
including bequests in our will,”
states Stanley happily.
Dr. Jim Benson, Chair of the
Fine Arts Department, is thrilled
with the new scholarship. “This is
the largest named scholarship in
our program,” he says. “It is
exciting to be able to provide
financial
support
and
encouragement to aspiring artists.”
Claudine Beaulieu from Racine,
Quebec is the first recipient. Upon
graduation next spring Claudine
plans to pursue a career as a
professional artist. “My love of art
drew me back to university full
time,” says Claudine. “I hope I can
use my talent to have the same
influence on others that Wanda and
Stanley have had on so many
individuals.”

“Throughout my time at Bishop’s, I have been pleased
with the unparalleled efficiency of my professors, the
quality and relevance of my courses and the social
circle I’ve developed among peers. The scholarship
provided a strong sense of pride for me and has
proven that my long hours and sacrifices have all been
worthwhile. I have found a new source of strength in
knowing that my academic efforts were recognized
and that my final semester at University would not
impose any financial restraints”

Harvey White wins Willam & Nancy Turner Teaching Award
eaching is something we do well at Bishop’s. It
takes fellowship to make a classroom, and
we are lucky to have students who make
us better teachers: learning happens on both
sides of the lectern. We are also lucky at
Bishop’s because our students pay us a
high compliment each year at
Convocation in selecting one
Professor for special recognition in
the form of the William & Nancy
Turner Teaching Award. Established
in 1989 by former Chancellor
William I.M. Turner, this award
today goes to Dr. Harvey White.
Dr. White, who earned his
degrees at Minnesota, Princeton and
McGill, came to Bishop’s many years
ago to teach in the Department of
Religious Studies. The students who
nominated Dr. White for this award write that
he provides a “consistently positive learning
environment” that engages students in “productive
and thoughtful discussions.” His lectures and seminar
classes are not delivered in a “dispassionate”
manner but rather “it is clear that the
philosophical and theological concepts
deeply concern him.” He “welcomes
questions from the most basic to the
truly boggling.”
Dr. White is always
generous with his time and does
extra things students don’t expect
from a professor, like “scrounging
up money” for projects or
conferences. Everyone who knows
Harvey recognizes the truth of what
these students have said because he
is not only our steadfast friend but has
long been, and continues to be, our
teacher as well. Join me in
congratulating Dr. White as this year’s
recipient of a well-earned honour.

Three long-serving faculty retire
Giovanni Di Lullo
tudents and colleagues of Giovanni
(Gianni) Di Lullo were disappointed
to hear of his decision to retire on
July 1, 2007. For 25 years Gianni has
brought the Italian language and culture
alive for hundreds of students at Bishop’s.
Gianni was born and raised in
Agnone, a small city in central Italy, and
since his arrival in Canada he has called
Montreal home. He pursued his undergraduate studies at
Concordia and his graduate studies at McGill. He began his
teaching career with brief stints at CEGEP Bois-de-Boulogne
and the Istituto Italiano di Cultura before moving on to
Concordia and then Bishop’s. (He continues as a part-time
instructor at Concordia.)
Students fondly remember Gianni’s interesting and
demanding classes, and his infectious enthusiasm for the many
subjects that he integrated into his language instruction. He
brought a great breadth of knowledge and expertise to each
lecture. It is not surprising, then, that he was cited in the
Maclean’s Magazine Guide to Canadian Universities for two
consecutive years for the quality of his teaching.
Gianni’s time at Bishop’s saw the expansion of the Italian
program from a minor to a full component of the Modern
Languages Major, and in recent years Gianni has worked on
diversifying the offerings in Italian, with new courses in the
S
areas of Italian poetry, prose, and cinema. Moreover, under
Gianni’s guidance students in recent years have taken advantage
of summer study opportunities at La Societá Dante Alighieri and
exchange in Turin. He has also worked steadily over the years
on developing in the Library a wide-ranging Italian collection—
especially in the area of Italian cinema. In fact, colleagues will
remember that any mention of Italian films (classic or recent)
has always precipitated lively and stimulating conversations.
Gianni has a particular passion for the works of Italian
cinema of the 60s, his favourite directors being Valerio Zurlini,
Antonio Pietrangeli and Ermanno Olmi, and he is also interested
in Italian prose and poetry of the 20th century. Gianni has also
been very giving of his time—for years he presided over an
after-hours Italian conversation group in local cafés. Gianni is
well-known in the Sherbrooke area (particularly in Italian
restaurants, where, over the years, he has frequently brought
students and colleagues for the sake of the fine cuisine and
conversation).
Gianni looks back fondly on his years at Bishop’s and
derives satisfaction from the great strides his students have
made in their mastery of the language and their awareness of
Italian society and culture. We wish Gianni all the best in his
retirement.

Joanne Craig
r. Joanne Craig arrived at Bishop’s
in 1977 trailing clouds of
academic glory: a B.A. from Bryn
Mawr College, an M.A. from Oxford (St.
Hilda’s College) and a Ph.D. from
Harvard. But unlike Wordsworth’s child,
Joanne’s glory had not passed away. She
brought with her the promise of future
accomplishment both in her intelligence
and her finely trained mind.
Dr. Craig is a Renaissance specialist, whose research has
focused on Spenser’s great romantic epic, The Fairie Queene,
about which she has published numerous articles. But she is also
a Renaissance Woman, whose literary interests include not only
twentieth-century American poetry, but also women’s writing
from the fourteenth to the twentieth century. The scope of her
interests is hinted at in the fact that although she is very involved
in feminist literary theory, her recent research has focused on the
ideals of male friendship in the sixteenth century. She is truly an
academic for all seasons.
Dr. Craig’s 30 years at Bishop’s have been characterized by
an intense dedication to the University, the English department,
and especially to our students. Having taught a great range of
courses, from introductory fiction courses, through surveys of
D
English literature, to courses in Shakespeare and specialized
courses in her areas of academic specialization, she has trained,
enlightened, guided and inspired generations of students.
Amongst those who remember her most fondly are those whom
she has encouraged to pursue the level of academic rigour that
she has always herself maintained — those who have themselves
gone on to distinguished academic careers.
Although Dr. Craig is best known for her scholarly
accomplishments, all of us who know her well are also very
aware of her engaging personal qualities: her wit, her
cheerfulness, and her courage, all of which were notably
displayed during the two years when she was recuperating from
being hit by a truck while walking to the University on a winter
morning. Her absence from the campus during that time was a
sad foretaste of how much we will miss her after she retires.
For the time being the Craig family presence is being
maintained at the University by her son, Gordon, the recent
recipient of a Ph.D. in Mathematics. Three years ago Joanne and
Gordon became the first mother and son in the history of
Bishop’s to hold concurrent academic appointments.
Garry Retzleff
Professor Emeritus of English
Ken McLean
uring his 30 years at Bishop’s
Ken McLean has been an amiable
and supportive professor and
colleague, invariably offering visitors
and neighbors of his office in Morris
House help, advice, and a welcoming
smile. He loves his family, the outdoors,
sports, Canada, and everything Irish,
including whiskey.
Ken was born in Wales, and his family emigrated to
southwestern Ontario when he was a child. He studied at Wilfrid
Laurier, McMaster, and York, and taught English in Germany
for a year before he came to Bishop’s to teach Canadian
literature. He quickly discovered that his job included American
literature as well, and later he became keenly interested in Irish
literature. One of his students commented that all Ken needed
was a pipe to be the perfect professor of Irish literature.
The growing collection of books in his office reflected
Ken’s industrious efforts to keep up with writing in three
burgeoning fields, and through his teaching Ken shared his
enthusiasms with his students. His classes were enormously
popular, and therefore very large, and the Divisional Teaching
Award reflects his students’ appreciation.
D
16 • Fall 2007 Bishop’s University News
Even when he wasn’t department chair, Ken took an
extraordinary interest in the details of departmental
administration to the point at which he became a reliable
resource for the chair, whoever he or she was. Ken served on
important committees like the Senate Planning Committee, the
Library Committee, and the Speakers Committee, and for many
years he organized a series of readings by Canadian writers. He
faithfully attended events sponsored and organized by students,
usually the Inglit Club, as well as departmental events like
poetry readings, not to mention meetings of the department and
of the various committees on which he sat. His commitment to
the English department and the University were exceptionally
strong, and his attention to detail and due process were
particularly valuable.
Not that Ken’s interests are restricted to literature and to
departmental and University politics: at noon every day he
abandoned his office for the Complex and a game of squash,
badminton or tennis, depending on the season and the weather.
Weekends found him hiking, biking, or skiing. We hope that
retirement will give him ample opportunities for all his favorite
pursuits, active and sedentary.

Joy Chandler retires
A
fter twelve years of
dedicated service, Joy
Chandler retired from her
role as the SRC’s Executive
Assistant, a departure that will
resonate with the many students
whom she has tirelessly served over
the years.
Joy will be remembered as the
kindly, all-knowing wielder of the highly sought-after SRC
poster stamp and various other SRC-related paraphernalia and
publications. Serving as the front line — and often only line —
of communication between students and the SRC, Joy was
constantly subjected to incessant questions and requests, yet she
always seemed to know the answers. Long before there was
Google, there was Joy Chandler.
For students who worked as SRC Executive members, Joy
was oft regarded as a “mom away from home,” offering a
helping hand to edit an essay, a listening ear to frustrations or, in
the case of a skipped class, a gentle scolding reminding us of our
academic responsibilities and priorities. Joy instilled this sense
of caring and attention to detail in all her campus involvements,
including serving as an occasional organist at St. Mark’s
Chapel.
Joy mentions fondly that every day in the SRC office threw
out the hectic mix of the absolutely ridiculous and the
imperatively serious that characterizes the organized chaos of
student life. A “typical” day would include working on the
academic calendar with the Registrar, blowing up a huge
decorative Smirnoff bottle for the bar, and then back to the
calendar again, all before noon!
When asked what she enjoyed most about her work with the
SRC, Joy suggests that it may have been the challenge of
remaining flexible when, year after year, she would inherit a
different “boss” in the form of a newly elected SRC Executive.
After twelve years of wearing the mantle as the SRC’s
“continuity piece,” Joy leaves a legacy of service and dedication
to the Bishop’s community. In light of her outstanding
contribution, and as a testament to this legacy, the SRC has
created a new award in her honour, The Joy Chandler
Community Involvement Award. We wish her well-deserved rest
and relaxation, including longer naps than her SRC lunch break
previously allowed, and thank her for her dedicated service to
the Bishop’s community and the SRC.

Founder of Business School dies in Jersey, Channel Islands
rrol Duval, Professor Emeritus of
Business, died on May 17, 2007, and his
family and friends, among whom are
many alumni and former colleagues, were
deeply saddened by his death. He had been
closely associated with Bishop’s for most of his
life, as a student, an alumnus, and a professor.
Errol was born in Grand’Mere, Quebec on
December 20, 1920. He first came to Bishop’s
as a student in 1939 and took part in all the
available sporting activities, playing in each
with “the same fiery enthusiasm, that
determined desire to win.” He also acted in
plays, was editor of The Mitre, and graduated
with History Honors in 1942.
Immediately after graduation, Errol
obtained a commission in the Canadian Army,
but his military career was cut short. He was
invalided back to Canada from England in
1943. During his convalescence in London,
Ontario, he met and married his wife Evelyn in
1949; their twins Greg and Catherine were born
in 1951.
After regaining his health, Errol entered
graduate studies at the University of Western
Ontario where he obtained a Diploma in
Business Administration in 1951 and an M.B.A.
in 1954. He taught Business Administration at
Western and at the University of Windsor
before he was invited to Bishop’s in 1958 to
introduce a Business program. In the early
1960s, a two-member department, just Errol
and an accounting professor, managed to offer a
Business major for a B.A. degree. Despite these
limited resources the program was a great
success. Business alumni from that period,
including David Williams after whom the
Business School is now named, value the
education they received. By the time Errol
retired, the Department had grown into a
E
Division with twenty faculty and about one
hundred graduates per year.
On arrival at Bishop’s, Errol also started an
evening course in Executive Development that
was extremely successful. Some 450 executives
completed the course up to 1968 when it
merged with a program given by the Canadian
Institute of Management. Errol was also keen
that the department should always have the best
advice available, and ensured this by
establishing an Advisory Committee of
distinguished business people.
Errol made many contributions to the
administrative operations of the University and
to the local community as a lay reader at local
churches and as an enthusiastic member of
Lennoxville Curling Club and Milby Golf Club,
of which he was a founding member in 1964.
Some of his friends will remember fondly his
rapid and often erratic play of the cards at
bridge. His golf had similar characteristics.
The University recognized Errol’s
outstanding contributions by the award of a
D.C.L. at his retirement in 1983. He went to live
in Jersey with his second wife Clare, who came
from that island, and many of his friends have
enjoyed the hospitality at their charming home.
Early in the spring, following a fall at
home, Errol was admitted to hospital, and while
there he contracted an infection from which he
did not recover. His friends will remember with
affection his generally light approach to the
problems of the world, and his sense of humour
in dealing with the more immediate difficulties
of life. Errol was an original, and we will not
forget him.

Alumni Perspectives
Guest columnist Norman Webster ’62, DCL ’85 remembers China
My favourite Chinese joke has three prisoners together
in a cell in Beijing. The first says, “I am here because I
opposed the policies of Deng Xiaoping.”
“Hah!” snorts the second, “I am here because I supported
the policies of Deng Xiaoping.”
The two turn to the third man, who says: “I am Deng
Xiaoping.”
t really was that wacky in China in the latter half of the 20th
century. Communist regimes tend to work that way. People
pop in and out of prominence – or jail, or worse – according
to whether their policies and principles find favour with “the
people,” which is to say the dictator of the moment, who
helpfully interprets the people’s will. Witness, as we speak, the
mad kingdom of North Korea.
Deng Xiaoping, the bullet-headed pepperpot from Sichuan
province, could have given survival lessons to Richard Nixon.
From Mao Zedong’s close associate and political hitman, one of
the most powerful in the land, Deng descended into near oblivion
during Mao’s Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution. When I
arrived in Beijing in 1969, to spend two years as The Globe and
Mail’s resident correspondent, literally hundreds of millions of
Chinese daily chanted their hatred of this man and his
treacherous allies. “Revisionist,” “capitalist roader,” “renegade,
hidden traitor and scab” were among the labels affixed to them
by the masses waving their red books of Mao quotations.
Red was the colour of the day. The anarchic Red Guards,
sent on the rampage by Mao, proposed changing the capital’s
traffic lights to Stop on green and Go on red. Deng Xiaoping was
reviled for daring to say, “It doesn’t matter whether a cat is black
or white, as long as it catches mice” (i.e. Communist theology is
less important than results). This was heresy.
For his sins, Deng spent a decade in eclipse. You will see no
evidence of him in the photographs of Nixon’s visit in 1972. He
was still the unmentionable man. It was only with Mao’s decline
and death in 1976 that Deng made his comeback, and even then
it was a close-run struggle with the leader’s harridan wife, Jiang
Ching. Deng was in, out, then finally in again and in control – the
tough, pragmatic leader China so desperately needed after
decades of turmoil under the Lord of Misrule, Mao.
He proceeded to make history with a new quotation: “To get
rich is glorious.” Simple words, but what an impact. At a stroke,
the stultifying Communist economy was repudiated, the
formidable talents and energies of the Chinese people set loose,
and this desperately poor country of a billion or so people
launched into the modern world. (Modern economic world, that
is. Politically, the Party continues to govern with an iron fist.
Deng himself was no sweetheart; he it was who gave the ultimate
I

order for the army to open fire in Tienanmen Square in l989.)
The cliché has it that people pull themselves up by their own
bootstraps, but in fact at first the Chinese didn’t even have boots.
They had slippers with hemp soles, or canvas shoes with rubber
soles cut from old tires (you could still see the tread). On return
trips to China through the years, I have had my private index of
progress: how many people are wearing good leather shoes? The
results have been fantastic, of a piece with the booming industry
of Chengdu, the gleaming buildings of Shanghai, the trafficchoked ring roads of Beijing.
When my family and I lived in Beijing, the main commuter
traffic was cyclists jingling their handlebar bells. The other kings
of the road were the drivers of the donkey- and horse-carts who
brought agricultural produce into the city for sale on gritty street
corners. The drivers would sit atop huge loads of cabbages as
their beasts plodded across Tienanmen Square. When lunchtime
came, they tied feedbags on the animals, then would lie down on
the edge of the road – the Boulevard of Eternal Peace, main drag
of the capital city – and go to sleep. True story.
Beijing itself was a large, gray-walled Asian village with
few sidewalks to roll up at night and hardly any flights into its
“international” airport. Exactly three Western correspondents
were stationed in the capital – one Frenchman, one West German
