THE HUMANITIES TEACH US TO USE THAT POWER WISELY,” SAYS CANADIAN BUSINESS HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE AND WESTERN ALUMNUS, JOSEPH ROTMAN (BA’57). The more successful Rotman became in business, the more he felt he was falling back on the principles and disciplines of critical thinking he learned in philosophy at Western. This led him to make a $4-million donation to Western in 2008, creating the Rotman Institute of Philosophy. “I am convinced we have the opportunity at Western to do something unique,” says Rotman. “We can have significant impact by helping define the scope of the problems that society faces because of the rapid changes in science and technology, as well as to ensure we advance questions that are not being asked. We must look at science and technology through the lens of philosophy.” While the Rotman Institute officially opened in October, faculty, staff and students have Dr. Cecil and Linda Rorabeck been busy building momentum for the last two years. THE RORABECKS HAVE BEEN MAKING QUIET BUT GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS TO THEIR COMMUNITY FOR MANY YEARS – THROUGH PHILANTHROPY, VOLUNTEER A key early step was the establishment of an International Advisory Committee comprised of some of the world’s leading scientists and philosophers.

The nomination document was produced by the Thames River Coordinating Committee, a volunteer group of individuals and agency representatives, supported by the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority (UTRCA) and Lower Thames Valley Conservation Authority (LTVCA). The Thames River and its watershed were nominated on the basis of their significant human heritage features and recreational values. Although the Thames River possesses an outstanding natural heritage which contributes to its human heritage and recreational values, CHRS integrity guidelines precluded nomination of the Thames based on natural heritage values because of the presence of impoundments.
