WINTER 2013/2014 HEARSAY 63 ANDY MACKAY 1929-2013

William Andrew (Andy) MacKay was born in Halifax in 1929. He came to our university as a first-year arts student in 1947. He earned his BA, LL.B. and LL.M. at Dalhousie. He also received an LL.M. from Harvard University and three honorary doctorates from Memorial, St. Francis Xavier and Dalhousie. Andy MacKay began as a professor in 1957 and later, in 1964, became Dean of the Law School. In 1969 he was made Vice-President of Dalhousie University and later still, President. He then went on to serve as a judge of the Federal Court. In July 2013 at MacKay's memorial service, Professor Bill Charles ('58), a longtime colleague of MacKay's, gave a touching eulogy. The following is Charles' tribute to a friend and a venerable Dalhousian.
