Remember . ? Coffee in the cafeteria; the noon-hour volleyball games; cramming for exams; the long bus ride out to Fort Garry; the 'Toban twice a week; worrying about a date for the next dance; the welcome vacation. A be­ wildering array of activities that makes us wonder how we could ever pass the exams. Within the pages of the 1955 Brown and Gold. we have tried to re­ captur� some of the already fading moments of the past year. Carousel. the winning Bisons, another McGoun Cup victory, a new university president. Many memorable events we could not cover, but who can forget the anxiety of the Formosa crisis; Marilyn Bell's crossing of Lake Ontario; Mendes-France's reforms as France's premier; the shooting of Beria and the fall of Malenkov, and the British Empire Games in Van- couver. As you turn the pages, you'll ndtice several photos of events from earlier years. For the safekeeping of all these memories, we present the 1955 Brown and Gold. C. I.

Saunderson came to the presidency with a firmly established Manitoba background. Both his mother and his father were grads of the U. of M.; he too is an alumnus of Manitoba, and few years have passed since he vacated the post of Dean of Arts and Science at this university. As an Arts grad, Dr. Saunderson went into rural Manitoba as a school­ teacher. Then he returned to complete a B.Sc. degree and his M.Sc. at Manitoba before travelling east for a Doctorate at McGill. Back to U. of M. in the Chemistry field where he rose to the position of Dean, the job he left to become a member of the department of Defence Production. He left the department to accept the presidency. Dr. and Mrs. Saunderson now live in the president's residence at Fort Garry with daughter Carol, a U. of M. student and their son. 14 • JOHN B.

Content areas include media and techniques, history and culture, criticism and appreciation, and design. Four core units present fundamental art knowledge through themes based on self and environmental exploration. Media and techniques used include drawing, collage, sculpture and ceramics. Four secondary units are enrichment oriented. Maskmaking expands on self-exploration by examining different faces humans present to establish identity and communication. Mass media introduces students to concepts of advertisement communication. Differences between need and want are explored. Landscape is studied as interpretations of environment as seen, remembered, or imagined. Investigation of the future allows for exploration of various scenarios with a wide variety of materials. The teaching method employed is problem solving/inquiry. Idea journals and portfolios are identified and used as evaluation tools. Appendices and bibliographies are included.

Recent From 2009-2014 I was subcontracted to Battelle Memorial Institute (Chapel Hill, N.C.), pro- Work viding scientific expertise for the U.S. Army Research Office (ARO; Durham, N.C.) and the U.S. Army Center for Environmental Health Research (USACEHR; Washington, D.C.). That work primarily involved evaluation of molecular genetics and other life sciences research pro- posals for the ARO, and analyses of genomic expression data (Yersinia pestis-infected primate cells) for the USACEHR. That work, with my previous postdoctoral studies, reinforced my desire to pursue a career in bioinformatics. From 2015–present I have been immersed in a highly concentrated self-supported and -directed programme of study to acquire the tools in core domains (data management; programming languages; informatics; graphical models; data visualization; natural language processing; machine learning) needed to realize my Vision. Consequently, I possess a theoretical un- derstanding and appreciation of the underlying principles (modeling; loss functions; gradient descent; back propagation; tensors; linear algebraic approaches such as eigenvalues and semir- ings applied to data matrices; etc.) associated with leading-edge machine learning and natural language processing models.

  • Student Life at Dalhousie University in the 1930S
    PAUL AXELROD Moulding the Middle Class: Student Life at Dalhousie University in the 1930s HISTORIANS HAVE STUDIED CANADIAN UNIVERSITIES primarily from the per­ spective of presidents, principals and administrations. Too many "biographies" of universities extol great men and great buildings but fail to place the study of higher education adequately within the context of Canadian social and intellec­ tual history. In particular, historians of post-secondary education in Canada have tended to devote too little attention to the participation of students in uni­ versity life. This is unfortunate, since one of the central purposes of the uni­ versity has been to prepare Canadian youth to fill appropriate social roles in the adult world.1 The following case study examines the experiences of students at one Cana­ dian university during the decade of the 1930s. Opened on a permanent basis in 1863, Dalhousie University of Halifax was, by 1930, a non-denominational uni­ versity offering both a liberal arts degree and professional education in medi­ cine, dentistry and law; in addition, King's College, the affiliated Anglican institution, offered degrees in Divinity.2 In 1930 the student body was made up It gives me great pleasure to acknowledge the following contributions to this study: Hedy Armour for superlative research assistance; Charles Armour for his cooperation at the Dalhousie University Archives; Debbie Stewart, Joann Trypuc, Anne Oram and Paul Craven for technical assistance and/or advice; Craig Heron and John Webster Grant for helpful suggestions; and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council for generous funding support. An earlier version of this paper was delivered to the 1985 meeting of the Canadian Historical Association in Montreal.

  • George Glenn: Process of Making Art Becomes a Positive Force
    George Glenn: Process of making art becomes a positive force Commissioned by the Saskatchewan Arts Alliance “Paradise” is how artist George Glenn describes Saskatchewan. Born in Regina’s Lakeview neighborhood, “right next to the prairie”, Glenn remembers his boyhood there when the “tumbleweed would roll down McCallum Avenue”. Today he’s a visual artist who makes his home in Prince Albert, where he has been working as an artist and teacher for more than 25 years. Glenn has found that Saskatchewan is a place where he can create, exhibit, and enjoyed a community of friends who are, in his words, “artists of life”, though they may not necessarily be working in art Glenn mostly stays close to home, but he speaks of “trips”, “travels” and “space”, which seemed to be recurrent themes in his life and art. In 1959 when he was a teen, and his interest in art had already surfaced, Glenn’s family moved to Winnipeg, where he went to Grant Park High School and the University of Manitoba. In 1970 after receiving a degree in fine arts, he moved to Alberta and worked as a curatorial assistant at the Glenbow Museum for two years. His next move took him to the master of fine arts program at the University of Cincinnati where he graduated in 1974. He says his most significant influences were teachers he encountered at the University of Manitoba. Alex Bruning, Ken Lochhead, George Swinton and Ivan Eyre, though very different in their paintings styles, all “demonstrated enthusiasm about the making of art”. The enthusiasm was infectious for Glenn.
