HONORARY DEGREES Candidates for honorary degrees may be nominated by any member of the community to the Senate Committee on Honor- ary Degrees and Ceremonial which, after due consideration, forwards its recommendations to Senate for approval. To be considered for an honorary degree, candidates must normally have been benefactors of the university, or persons who have achieved eminence in learning or in the arts, or those who have otherwise distinguished themselves by outstanding public service.

Born in North West River, Labrador, Shirley Montague has been called one of the most widely accomplished, recognized and respected figures in the provincial arts, music and cultural industries. In 1988 she wrote original music for the Ode to Labrador and rearranged the lyrics to incorporate Inuktitut and Innu-aimun translations. In 1993 Ms. Montague produced the compilation Our Labrador, which includes folk songs in the three languages of Labrador.

In 2008 she led the Remembering the Red Bay Basques project, a compilation recording celebrating the 16th-century Basques whaling history. In 2014 Red Bay was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Ms. Montague spearheaded the creation of the Gros Morne Musicians in Residence program and is the founder and longtime artistic director of the Trails Tales Tunes Festival. She was a major researcher and consultant for the 1996 study of the economic benefits of the sound recording industry in the province and has operated her own production company, Butter and Snow Productions. SHIRLEY MONTAGUE Ms. Montague has been recognized for her work with numerous awards, including Hospitality Newfoundland and Labrador’s Cultural Tourism Award, Music NL’s Denis Parker Industry Builder Award, ECMA’s Stompin’ Tom Unsung Hero Award and the Historic Sites Manning Award.

Shirley Montague will receive an honorary doctor of laws degree.

Dr. Ian Simpson has been a stalwart and consistent activist in environmental issues related to human health, helped to strengthen and expand the cultural community in the Corner Brook area and was specifically of service to Memorial University as a member of the advisory board set up for the college that has since become Grenfell Campus.

Born in Towersey, England, Dr. Simpson was educated at Cambridge University in the U.K. and began his medical career at the St. Lawerence Cottage Hospital. He accepted a role as a family physican at the West Coast Medical Clinic in Corner Brook in 1965. He later served as chief of staff at the Western Health Care Corporation and medical director of Geriatric Services at the O’Connell Centre, Corner Brook.

His environmental activism began when he encountered patients suffering health effects from mining during his first posting in Newfoundland, and attempted to bring these issues to the IAN MCDOUGALL attention of others. Dr. Simpson helped establish a local orchestra and supported such local SIMPSON initiatives as Gros Morne Summer Music, the Comer Brook Arts and Culture Centre Series and the Rotary Arts Centre in Corner Brook City Hall.

He was named the Canadian College of Family Physicians’ Family Physician of the Year in 1995, was granted honorary life membership in the Canadian Medical Association in 2006 and received a Newfoundland and Labrador Medical Association lifetime membership award in 2017.

Dr. Ian Simpson will receive an honorary doctor of laws degree.

7 MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY COLLEGE was founded in 1925 as a living memorial to the men and women who lost their lives on active service during the First World War — “that in freedom of learning their cause and sacrifice might not be forgotten.” In recognition of this unique origin and to mark the 2014–19 centenary of the First World War, Memorial University has established the WW100 program.

The WW100 graphic features a stylized blue forget-me-not flower which was the traditional flower of remembrance in Newfoundland and Labrador as early as 1917. The centre of the forget-me-not is coloured claret, one of the university’s official colours which was selected to honour the Royal Newfoundland Regiment. The claret centre is also symbolic of the poppy which is a commemorative image in many countries.
