Dr David Maclean, Dean of Health Sciences Dr John Pierce, Dean of Arts and Social Sciences The heraldic description of the coat of arms is: Dr Michael Plischke, Dean of Science "Quarterly: 1st and 4th, Azure, three !raises Argent; 2nd and 3rd, Argent, three Dr Paul Shaker, Dean of Education antique crowns Gules, in chief Gules an open book proper, binding and foreedges, Or, between two crosslets fitchee of the last." Chief Marshals The Coat of Arms was derived from that of the Clan Fraser. The name Fraser is said Dr Allan MacKinnon to have come from the French word "!raises, " meaning strawberries, hence the Shield Dr Rolf Mathewes and flag each include the strawberry flower motif. Dr Tom Perry The mace was commissioned by the University architects, Erickson-Massey, and was Chancellor's Party Marshal presented to the University at the opening ceremonies on September 9, 1965. The mace is 61 inches long and weighs 23 pounds. Pieces of cut and polished jade, which Mr W. Ron Heath were taken from the University's jade boulder in the reflecting pool, were set in silver by its designer, Harda artist Bill Reid. The mace is crowned by a silver stag's head, Faculty Marshals derived from the coat-of-arms of Lord Lovat, head of the Clan Fraser. The Fraser Dr Robert Anderson tradition was to fasten sprigs of yew in their bonnets before entering battle. The mace Dr Paul Budra was carved from two hundred-year-old yew, gathered on Burnaby Mountain by a Dr Brian Burtch resident in the 1940s. Ms Maureen Fizzell Dr Lannie Kanevsky Lord Lovat presented the University with a claymore, or great sword, on September Dr Dan Weeks 9, 1965. The claymore was first used by a Fraser at the Battle of Culloden Moor in 1746. It was also used by a Fraser at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham in 1759. The claymore is approximately 36 inches long and weighs two pounds. The flag was dedicated and flown for the first time at the Convocation ceremonies in June 1981. This program is prepared more than a week before Convocation and therefore may not be complete. 3 Academic Dress Board of Governors The regalia worn today by our graduates has a colourful history. Blue gown, red facings, red linings in sleeves, blue velvet Cambridge bonnet with red tassel Regalia originated in the monasteries of the Middle Ages. At that time, university faculty were men of religion who wore the habit of their Order when teaching. Over Senators time, their garments came to identify their university. In Europe, laymen did not Black gown, no bonnet. commonly teach in universities until the 19th century. Only by 1858, for example, did British law no longer require university dons to be in holy orders. Nevertheless, Faculty professors continued to wear clerical garb, with modifications in cut and design. Regalia from alma mater or black gown, black mortarboard Regalia colours often matched those of the university patron, or of the city in which the Hood: alma mater or none university was located; Simon Fraser regalia combines the red and royal blue of the Clan Fraser. (The University motto "nous sommes prets, "or "we are ready, " parallels Master the Clan's "je suis pret.") Blue gown, blue mortarboard The degree hood was originally part of the monk's habit - a carryall for food or other Master Hoods small items. Eventually, the hood became separate from the gown, variegated in Master of Applied Science: Red with wide maroon border and gold cording colour, and emblematic of scholars and degrees from particular universities. Hoods Master of Aquaculture: Red with wide gold border, gold cording and aquamarine in Canada and Europe are unique in design and colour to each degree and each underside university. Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences: Red with wide blue border The history of the mortarboard worn by our Bachelors and Masters begins with high Master of Arts in the Faculty of Applied Sciences: Red with wide green border and church dignitaries in the 16th century. These officials wore hats consisting of little more royal blue cording than a cap with a raised, squared crown.

  • John Vanderpant and the Cultural Life of Vancouver, 19 20-1939
    John Vanderpant and the Cultural Life of Vancouver, 19 20-1939 SHERYL SALLOUM The Canadian photographer John Vanderpant (1884-1939) achieved world-wide recognition for his black and white images and was "a major influence on Canadian photography in the 1920s and 1930s."1 He was also a major influence on the cultural development of the Vancouver area in those years. Vanderpant is an example of the patron who, according to Maria Tippett, helped to make Canadian culture "richly-textured, diver­ sified, and spontaneous" in the period between the two world wars.2 His endeavours to encourage the arts were extraordinary; his contributions to the cultural milieu of the West Coast are as unique and intriguing as his photography. Vanderpant emigrated from Holland in 1911, but he did not become a permanent Canadian resident until 1913. At that time he settled in the beautifully rugged region of southern Alberta. Attracted by its resource- rich economy and scenic expanses, Vanderpant felt that the area offered viable employment possibilities and creative freedom. These were espe­ cially important to the young man as he was beginning a career as a portrait photographer, and he wanted to escape restricting European traditions.3 To Vanderpant's dismay, he found that the area was artistically isolated; he yearned for a more vibrant cultural environment. It is not surprising, therefore, that he began importing American and European publications and musical recordings in order to keep himself attuned to new and avant- garde movements. Over the years he would disseminate that information, and the ways in which he would do so were distinctive.

  • Douglas Cole and the Ecumenical Challenge of British Columbia's Cultural History
    "THE QUITE IMPOSSIBLE TASK": Douglas Cole and the Ecumenical Challenge of British Columbia's Cultural History WENDY WICKWIRE INTRODUCTION N A SPIRIT OF SADNESS AND CELEBRATION, we present this special issue of BC Studies honouring the legacy of Douglas Lowell Cole.1 I As a major contributor to the cultural and intellectual history of the Northwest Coast, Cole's sudden death on 18 August 1997 took everyone by surprise and left a gaping hole that cannot be filled. He was fifty-eight years old and at the peak of his academic productivity. Best known for chronicling the story of the scramble for Northwest 1 The range of Douglas Cole's research interests was broad. This BC Studies tribute touches on one small part of it - his contribution to the history of Boasian anthropology. Because of this, we were unable to draw from the large community of scholars whose work overlapped with Cole's. To do so would require a volume much larger than this one. I wish to extend my gratitude to the many people who have assisted with this special issue. First and foremost, I thank Jean Barman and Cole Harris, who supported the idea for this special volume from the beginning. They also read and commented on all sub­ missions and generally kept the project on track. Joanne Hlina and Carlyn Craig ensured that the final production stage flowed smoothly. Their work on the issue is much appreciated. Alex Long, a former graduate student of Douglas Cole, deserves special mention. Until he was drawn into work commitments in California, he served as co-editor on this project, reading manuscripts and offering assistance in innumerable ways.

  • Art in British Columbia — the Historical Sources MARIA TIPPETT and DOUGLAS COLE
    Art in British Columbia — The Historical Sources MARIA TIPPETT and DOUGLAS COLE The dictum that cultural history is the last genre to be considered by the serious historian is exemplified in British Columbia. There is no history of the art or architecture of the province, no study of its literature, none of its music or drama. No biography has been written of Emily Carr, the province's most outstanding artist, and among literary figures, only Malcolm Lowry has been subject to serious enquiry. Recent and current scholarship, however, is beginning to cover some of these cultural gaps. Vancouver's architecture is the subject of work by Harold Kalman, early domestic architecture is under thorough investigation by E. M. Gibson, and several students are scrutinizing the work of Samuel Maclure. Some research seems to be underway on isolated literary topics. Music and theatre remain neglected, but the artistic past is being better served. At the moment there are only a few serious studies of the province's artistic history. J. Russell Harper's Early Painters and Engravers in Canada1 is a valuable reference. The same historian's Paul Kane's Frontier'2' is the only catalogue raisonnée of an artist's work. James B. Stanton's Impression of an Age,3 an exhibition catalogue of early art, contains valuable information which can be supplemented by his type­ script "Inventory."4 More important, W. Wiley Thorn's thesis on the fine arts in Vancouver, 1886-1930,5 thoroughly covers its topic. Aside from these significant guides, only a few individuals have shed light on past artitists.
