History <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>College Building Construction - November, 1911The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> was established by the <strong>University</strong> Act on April 3, 1907, only 18 monthsafter <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> became a province.The people <strong>of</strong> the province, as well as their government, were instrumental in shaping the new<strong>University</strong>. The provincial government requested all residents who were graduates <strong>of</strong> a Canadian orBritish university to form the Þrst <strong>Convocation</strong> and elect the <strong>University</strong>’s Senate. In 1908, the Boardselected Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Walter Charles Murray, <strong>of</strong> Dalhousie <strong>University</strong>, as the Þrst President.Classes in Arts and Science began in September, 1909, in downtown Saskatoon. Construction <strong>of</strong> thecampus began in 1910 and the Þrst buildings were occupied in the fall <strong>of</strong> 1912. They included theCollege Building (Administration Building), <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> Hall (a student residence), residences for theDean <strong>of</strong> Agriculture and the President, a laboratory for Engineering and a number <strong>of</strong> farm buildings.From the beginning, the <strong>University</strong> established an emphasis on research and teaching in a context <strong>of</strong>community service, and encouraged co-operation among departments and divisions in tackling commonproblems. The development <strong>of</strong> rust-resistant strains <strong>of</strong> wheat, for example, initiated by the <strong>University</strong> andfederal and provincial research agencies, has been <strong>of</strong> untold value to the prairie economy.In 1909, the <strong>University</strong> had 70 students and Þve pr<strong>of</strong>essors, including the President. Today there are over19,000 students studying in 13 colleges and one school. This is the only university in Canada with Þvehealth-science colleges and a major teaching hospital on the same campus.The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> overlooks the South <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> River. Most early buildings oncampus are Collegiate Gothic in style and are constructed in a local dolomite, popularly known asgreystone. Subsequently constructed buildings also have greystone, as well as Tyndall stone (pre-cut slabsquarried in Tyndall, Manitoba), concrete, brick, glass and aggregate facings.The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong>fers many points <strong>of</strong> interest for visitors: the Diefenbaker Canada Centre, Museum <strong>of</strong>Natural Sciences, Museum <strong>of</strong> Antiquities, Biology Museum, Pharmaceutical Museum, the Observatory,the Gordon Snelgrove Gallery, the St. Thomas More Gallery, Rugby Chapel, the Little Stone Schoolhouse,the Memorial Gates, Patterson Garden and the Kenderdine Gallery.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> 5 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> <strong>2006</strong>


The <strong>Convocation</strong> CeremonyThe word “<strong>Convocation</strong>” arises from the Latin “con” meaning “together,” and “vocare” meaning “to call.”Our <strong>Convocation</strong> ceremony is a calling together <strong>of</strong> the new graduates <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>,symbolizing the historical practice <strong>of</strong> calling together all former graduates. In current times, the majorfunctions <strong>of</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> are the election <strong>of</strong> representatives to <strong>University</strong> governing bodies and theadmission <strong>of</strong> candidates to degrees. The Chancellor, elected by <strong>Convocation</strong> as its Chair, is the highest<strong>of</strong>Þcial and spokesperson <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong>.The <strong>Convocation</strong> ceremony marks the transition from the role <strong>of</strong> student to the holder <strong>of</strong> a degree with itsaccompanying rights and privileges. Candidates for degrees, known as graduands, having completed therequirements <strong>of</strong> a course <strong>of</strong> study, are recommended by college faculties and the <strong>University</strong> Council toreceive degrees from the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>.The ceremony, solemnized in the presence <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> community and family and friends <strong>of</strong> thegraduands, consists <strong>of</strong> three parts: a procession marking the leaving <strong>of</strong> the old status and entering thenew; the President’s statement to the graduands, the Secretary’s petition and the Chancellor’s consentfor their admission; followed by individual presentation by their Dean and admission by the Chancellorto the degrees to which they are entitled. As graduates are admitted to their degrees, a graduation hood,which has a colour symbolizing a particular degree, is placed over each graduate’s head. A bannerdisplaying the <strong>University</strong> crest is hung above the stage, as a symbol <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong>’s authority to conferdegrees.Following the conferring <strong>of</strong> degrees and acceptance <strong>of</strong> each graduate as a member <strong>of</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong>,a reception is held—a celebration on the occasion <strong>of</strong> the formal transition from the role <strong>of</strong> learner to therole <strong>of</strong> producer and contributor in the Þeld <strong>of</strong> the graduate’s choice.THE PROCESSIONThe members <strong>of</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> in their academic robes march in procession into the ceremony in thefollowing order: Graduands in the order in which their degrees are to be conferred; Faculty;Board <strong>of</strong> Governors; Senate; Guests <strong>of</strong> Honour; Chairperson <strong>of</strong> the Board; The Minister <strong>of</strong> Education;The President; The Chancellor; The Lieutenant Governor. When the members <strong>of</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> reach theirplaces they remain standing during the Vice-Regal Salute, the singing <strong>of</strong> “O Canada” and the Invocation.ORDER OF THE CEREMONYThe Þrst business is the Conferring <strong>of</strong> Honorary Degrees, followed by the <strong>Convocation</strong> Address,President’s Report, President’s Statement to the Graduands, the Conferring <strong>of</strong> Degrees and thePresentation <strong>of</strong> Awards. The meeting is closed by the Chancellor rising and asking the audience to join inthe singing <strong>of</strong> God Save the Queen and leading the procession in the reverse order out <strong>of</strong> the Hall.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> 6 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> <strong>2006</strong>

Honorary Doctor <strong>of</strong> LawsELDER JIMMY MYOJimmy Myo is a prominent elder in the <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> First Nationscommunity and particularly knowledgeable concerning TreatyGovernance and Justice issues.Elder Myo is Þrst and foremost a family man. He has been married tohis wife Ena for 45 years. They have seven children. He speaks publiclyto the need for us to return to the tradition <strong>of</strong> respecting women. Heis the leader <strong>of</strong> his family and has ensured that all his children haveaccess to their culture and tradition.Speaking his language ßuently is a great asset. Elder Myo has beeninvolved in putting the ceremonies <strong>of</strong> his people in the ways that hisfather and mother strictly taught.His father was a farmer and he learned many skills as a child. He livedin a non-Aboriginal community near Cochin and this experience hastaught him to build relationships with non-indigenous people in the province. This lesson has served himwell over the years. During this time, Elder Myo was also an accomplished saddle breaker and bareback rideron the prairie rodeo circuit. Elder Myo supported his young family, travelling wherever there was work, andfor years worked on highway construction in the province.Elder Myo served as Band Chief for three years, and a Band Councillor for 15 years. Even when he was notan elected <strong>of</strong>Þcial, he was a leader in the community. He was the Þrst person from his community to be ableto <strong>of</strong>fer a local bus service for the children. He was instrumental, quite recently, in the building <strong>of</strong> a newschool at Moosomin. These examples demonstrate the commitment Elder Myo carries to youth, to educationand to his community.Elder Myo has given lectures and classes on treaties throughout the province from primary to universitystudents. His commitment to treaty is demonstrated in a book by Drs. Harold Cardinal and WalterHildebrandt, Treaty Elders <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>. Elder Myo is quoted throughout this book, but the quotation thatstands out as symbol <strong>of</strong> the man he is, reads as follows:“We got no business to give it up, we got no business to sell that land. We got no business to lease that land.We got no business to make any kind <strong>of</strong> deal on that land, but when the White man came to make a dealwith us, the old people knew that we could try to treat them like our own relatives, so that they could usethat land to the depth <strong>of</strong> a plow.”This promise, “the depth <strong>of</strong> the plow”, is one <strong>of</strong> the central treaty understandings in this region. Hisknowledge <strong>of</strong> the treaty and the frequency with which he has been quoted demonstrate the degree to whichElder Myo is a respected treaty historian in this area.More recently, Elder Myo has served as a Senator for the Federation <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> Indian Nations. He hasalso been a member <strong>of</strong> the Wanuskewin Indian Heritage Inc. Board <strong>of</strong> Directors for the past Þve years. He isrespected as an Elder throughout the province. His work with FSIN includes assisting the OfÞce <strong>of</strong> the TreatyCommissioner at the Exploratory Treaty Table. He has worked extensively with OTC over the last few years.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> 8 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> <strong>2006</strong>


Honorary Doctor <strong>of</strong> LettersNIK SEMENOFFNik Semen<strong>of</strong>f was born and educated in <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>, and is anoutstanding researcher, artist, teacher and inventor.Nik Semen<strong>of</strong>f has taught at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> andhas been Artist-in-Residence since 1992. His cutting-edge, originalresearch into safer printmaking processes has placed the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>Saskatchewan</strong> in the forefront <strong>of</strong> non-toxic printmaking research andeducation.Nik Semen<strong>of</strong>f has invented a number <strong>of</strong> printmaking processes,in particular the “waterless lithographic process”, high resolutionscreenprinting and specialized inks, which have made majorcontributions to his discipline. Printmaking is both safer and lessexpensive using the techniques and materials developed by Pr<strong>of</strong>essorSemen<strong>of</strong>f. Considered revolutionary, his work has generatedconsiderable interest in the international printmaking community, and Nik has been regularly invited topresent the results <strong>of</strong> his research at academic conferences and workshops. He has been invited to conductworkshops at universities, art centres, pr<strong>of</strong>essional printmaking studios and academic conferences inHong Kong, Japan, and the United States as well as in Canada. In 2004 he was invited for three weeks togive a series <strong>of</strong> talks and workshops throughout Japan from a special grant <strong>of</strong> the Japanese Government.An exceptional and generous educator, Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Semen<strong>of</strong>f is sought out by students and proponents <strong>of</strong>printmaking who wish to beneÞt from his new and innovating ways <strong>of</strong> working with print, and to be guidedand inspired by his energetic instruction, critiques and passion for the medium. Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Semen<strong>of</strong>f haspublished his research Þndings in such refereed academic journals as Leonardo: Journal <strong>of</strong> the InternationalSociety <strong>of</strong> the Arts, Sciences and Technology and the British journal Printmaking Today, and he maintainsa popular web site where papers on his most recent discoveries and processes are posted. His papers havebeen translated into Japanese, Spanish, Italian and Romanian.Amongst the numerous awards and honours that he has received, the Lifetime Award for Excellence in theArts from the <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> Arts Board and being included in the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> Toronto’s Canadian Who’sWho are the most prestigious.Nik Semen<strong>of</strong>f is known and respected as a “local” artist and has long been active in and supportive <strong>of</strong>the provincial artistic community, which in turn speaks highly <strong>of</strong> the quality <strong>of</strong> his work and his unselÞshsharing <strong>of</strong> his achievements. He was a founding member <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> Society <strong>of</strong> Artists and servedas its President in 1962. He was a founding member <strong>of</strong> Gallery 9 in Saskatoon and has been a BoardMember <strong>of</strong> the Mendel Art Gallery. He served as Associate Director <strong>of</strong> the Fine Art Committee <strong>of</strong> theSaskatoon Industrial Exhibition for a number <strong>of</strong> years.Nik Semen<strong>of</strong>f’s innovations in all areas <strong>of</strong> printmaking—Lithography, Silkscreen and Intaglio—areexceptional, and his tireless and outstanding work as a researcher and educator are truly worthy <strong>of</strong>signiÞcant recognition.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> 9 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> <strong>2006</strong>


Honorary Doctor <strong>of</strong> ScienceLOTFI A. ZADEHDr. LotÞ A. Zadeh, who is widely known as the father <strong>of</strong> thetheory <strong>of</strong> fuzzy logic, is a Pr<strong>of</strong>essor in the Graduate School,Computer Science Division, Department <strong>of</strong> Electrical Engineeringand Computer Science, at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> California, Berkeley.In addition, he also serves as the Director <strong>of</strong> BISC (Berkeley Initiativein S<strong>of</strong>t Computing).The theory <strong>of</strong> fuzzy logic acknowledges that while we would liketo believe that decisions can be made with complete conÞdencein their correctness, this is rarely the case and there is necessarilysome associated uncertainty, a ‘fuzziness’, in the adopted decision.Dr. Zadeh pioneered the mathematical description <strong>of</strong> theseuncertainties with the introduction <strong>of</strong> fuzzy set theory, an attempt todescribe a lack <strong>of</strong> precision in the information that is used to makea decision and the resulting doubt in the adopted decision. He developed this theory in the early 1960s,and his insistence that the frequently abstract mathematical world has applications in the solution <strong>of</strong>real-world problems has led to its application in a variety <strong>of</strong> areas such as fuzzy-neural systems, controlsystems, visions systems, artiÞcial intelligence, expert systems, medical diagnosis, economic systems,judicial systems, and decision analysis.Dr. Zadeh has a distinguished international reputation, and his scholarship has had a pr<strong>of</strong>ound effect onthe work <strong>of</strong> researchers and practitioners world wide. His research and proliÞc publication record hasled to many medals and scientiÞc prizes, including a Medal <strong>of</strong> Honour from the Institute <strong>of</strong> Electrical andElectronics Engineers (IEEE). He has lectured around the world and is a member <strong>of</strong> the editorial boards<strong>of</strong> 55 scientiÞc journals. In the less than 40 years since his theory was propounded, thousands <strong>of</strong> papersand scores <strong>of</strong> textbooks have been written on this seminal topic, and at least 20 international journals areestablished in this Þeld. He has over 200 primary publications with thousands <strong>of</strong> citations <strong>of</strong> his researchpapers and has received numerous prestigious awards. His outstanding contributions as an engineer/scientist, educator and a member <strong>of</strong> the pr<strong>of</strong>ession have earned him worldwide recognition.Dr. Zadeh has visited the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> and its Intelligent Systems Research Laboratoryon Þve different occasions, and has inspired our university community through his thought provokinglectures and discussions on fuzzy logic and s<strong>of</strong>t-computing methods. Through those presentations andnumerous one-on-one discussions, he has been an inspiration and role model for many pr<strong>of</strong>essors andstudents in our university. Because <strong>of</strong> his well-recognized research and countless publications, and hisdirect impact to scholarship and its practical applications here in our province, Dr. Zadeh is a worthycandidate to receive an Honorary Doctor <strong>of</strong> Science degree from the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> 10 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> <strong>2006</strong>


Earned Doctor <strong>of</strong> ScienceLARRY FOWKELarry Fowke was born in Toronto and raised in Saskatoon. Heobtained an honours B.A. from the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> in1963 and a Ph.D. from Carleton <strong>University</strong>, Ottawa, in Plant CellBiology in 1968. Following a two year postdoctoral fellowshipat the Australian National <strong>University</strong> in Canberra, he joined theDepartment <strong>of</strong> Biology. The Fowkes have a long standing associationwith the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>. Larry’s father Vernon wasa faculty member in the Department <strong>of</strong> Economics and PoliticalScience for 36 years and Larry and Lynne’s three children aregraduates <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong>.Dr. Fowke’s research has focused on cells, the tiny building blocks<strong>of</strong> living organisms. He is particularly interested in how cells divideto produce new cells. Recent research has revealed a new family <strong>of</strong>inhibitors that block this process in plants. Dr. Fowke has also explored the fascinating mechanisms bywhich plant cells move material across their cell membrane, from outside <strong>of</strong> the cell to inside. A thirdmajor area <strong>of</strong> interest is cloning <strong>of</strong> conifers. Methods have been developed that will allow the forestindustry to produce virtually unlimited numbers <strong>of</strong> identical superior trees for reforestation. Dr. Fowkehas co-edited a book and published over 160 research papers, chapters and reviews. Four biotechnologypatents have been issued and three are pending. His research has resulted in appointments as visitingscientist at universities and research institutes in Australia, Switzerland, Sweden and England.Dr. Fowke loves to teach. He particularly enjoys teaching introductory biology to large classes <strong>of</strong>enthusiastic Þrst year students. His teaching also includes more specialized courses in cell biology andelectron microscopy at the undergraduate and graduate levels. He has been known to employ unusualteaching aids such as the Australian didgeridoo. For over 30 years Dr. Fowke’s laboratory has been anexciting place to work with numerous graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and visiting scientists fromaround the world.Dr. Fowke’s previous honours have included the Distinguished Researcher Award and appointments asJarislowsky Chair in Biotechnology and Rawson Pr<strong>of</strong>essor in Biology. He was recently recognized as anISI Highly Cited Researcher in the plant and animal category.

Distinguished Researcher AwardJIM HENDRYThe Distinguished Researcher Award recognizes a faculty member’scontribution to scholarship through the creation, expansion, andcritique <strong>of</strong> knowledge. Jim Hendry, Pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> Hydrogeology in theDepartment <strong>of</strong> Geological Sciences, College <strong>of</strong> Arts and Science, is therecipient <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>2006</strong> award.Hendry is world-renowned for pioneering insights and imaginativeresearch with aquitard—near-impermeable underground layers thatsandwich the water-rich aquifers providing water supplies acrossCanada and around the world. Clay-rich aquitards are also the material<strong>of</strong> choice to sequester the dangerous wastes <strong>of</strong> modern technologicalsociety—everything from PCBs to mine tailings and nuclear waste.Despite their importance, aquitards are among the most difÞcultgeological features to study and thus the least understood area ingroundwater science. Hendry was the Þrst to address this challenge and thus deÞne the Þeld. With morethan 100 research papers in peer reviewed journals on the topic to date, his work is the most signiÞcantand comprehensive reference on aquitards in existence. This knowledge has conferred new methods forstewardship <strong>of</strong> Earth’s precious water resources.Hendry achieved his B.Sc. in Geology and M.Sc. in Geochemistry in the 1970s from the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong>Waterloo. He was awarded a Ph.D. in Hydrogeochemistry from the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> Waterloo in 1984. For 10years he was head <strong>of</strong> the Groundwater Section for Alberta Agriculture at the Lethbridge Research Centrebefore becoming Director <strong>of</strong> Research for the U.S. National Groundwater Association in 1988.He returned to Canada in 1990 to lead the Groundwater and Contaminants Project at the National HydrologyResearch Institute in Saskatoon. When Cameco donated a research chair to the <strong>University</strong> in 1994, aninternational peer-reviewed competition selected Hendry to Þll it. This was leveraged into a Cameco-NSERCIndustrial Research Chair, recently renewed for a third Þve-year term.Hendry has developed courses on using isotopes to study groundwater contamination, contaminant transport,aqueous geochemistry, and aquifer analysis. He currently teaches graduate and undergraduate courses inaqueous and environmental geochemistry. He has also contributed to numerous scholarly and outreachactivities, including seminars on groundwater safety presented to the public. In the academic community, hehas fostered strong collaborations within the <strong>University</strong> and outside partners.Hendry’s work has been selected for international awards, and resulted in a vibrant network <strong>of</strong> industrial andacademic partners who seek his expertise. He was selected as the prestigious Darcy Lecturer in 2000, andover the next two years spoke at nearly 40 universities and research institutions in North America, Europeand Australia. In 2003 he was the recipient <strong>of</strong> the Hem Award for Excellence in Science and Engineering inGroundwater. His achievements and international stature contribute greatly to the reputation <strong>of</strong> this universityand to the success <strong>of</strong> our students.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> 12 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> <strong>2006</strong>


Master Teacher AwardFRED PHILLIPS“Does the need <strong>of</strong> the many outweigh the need <strong>of</strong> the few? Or isit that the needs <strong>of</strong> the few outweigh the need <strong>of</strong> the many?” Thisdebate originating between Captain James T. Kirk and CommanderSpock <strong>of</strong> Star Trek is emblematic <strong>of</strong> the challenge teacherseverywhere face in their pr<strong>of</strong>ession. One possible measure <strong>of</strong>success as a teacher is the ability to defeat the implied trade<strong>of</strong>f. Byextension a Master Teacher can be deÞned as one who has beenable to completely defeat the trade<strong>of</strong>f!Fred Phillips is a Master Teacher. <strong>Students</strong> are in awe <strong>of</strong> Fred’s abilityto hold 120 <strong>of</strong> them enthralled about accounting for ninety minuteson a Monday morning at 8:30 a.m.! Testimonials consistentlypraise Fred’s commitment and love for fostering individual learning.For Fred there is no bigger achievement than to turn students “on” toaccounting.Fred is a teacher par excellence. He is a past recipient <strong>of</strong> and a winner, this year, <strong>of</strong> the USSU TeachingExcellence Award. He has twice won the College <strong>of</strong> Commerce Award for most effective teacher andhas also won the Master <strong>of</strong> Pr<strong>of</strong>essional Accounting (MPAcc) Teacher <strong>of</strong> the Year award. In fact, Fred haseither been nominated for or won a teaching-related award every year since coming to the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>Saskatchewan</strong> in 1996. And prior to coming here he won the teaching excellence award at the <strong>University</strong><strong>of</strong> Texas at Austin in 1996!Fred Phillips is also the quintessential teacher-scholar. His teaching has informed his research andvice-versa. He is three time winner <strong>of</strong> the annual case writing competition held by the CanadianAcademic Accounting Association, and the author <strong>of</strong> an introductory accounting textbook noted bystudents and instructors alike for its outstanding pedagogy. He is an Associate Editor <strong>of</strong> the prestigiousaccounting education journal, Issues in Accounting Education. This is an extremely challenging anddemanding role to which Fred has tirelessly contributed. His contributions to the journal have been soproliÞc and substantive that it led the journal editor, Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Sue Ravenscr<strong>of</strong>t, to joke that the journalshould perhaps be renamed Issues in FREDucation.With Fred Phillips there is no arrogance or artiÞce. There is only thoughtfulness, insight, simplicity,generosity, honesty and respect. Returning to Star Trek, Kirk and Spock need to look no further thanFred Phillips, Master Teacher, to learn a thing or two about solving a logical conundrum!Unlike Archimedes, who reportedly had to step into a bathtub for his “aha” experience, for those <strong>of</strong> uswho know Fred, all it takes is to step into Fred’s classroom as a student, or have him as an academicreferee providing comments on our work, or engage with him on a discourse about teaching andresearch as a colleague, for us to yell, all in one voice, “Eureka!”<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> 13 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> <strong>2006</strong>


Outreach and Public Service AwardFRANÇOIS MESSIERDr. François Messier’s many contributions to teaching andresearch are matched only by his abiding interest in environmentalconservation and community development.His current research interests are varied, and examine a variety <strong>of</strong>important ecological questions on mammals ranging from Ord’sKangaroo rats to black-tailed prairie dogs.A well-published authority on economically signiÞcant wildlifediseases, such as Bovine tuberculosis and chronic wasting disease,he has travelled as far north as Nunavut and the Northwest Territoriesto study the ecology <strong>of</strong> grizzly bears, grey wolves, and moose and iskeenly interested in Aboriginal traditional knowledge with respect tocaribou ecology both in the arctic and in <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>.While much <strong>of</strong> his research speaks to his commitment to conservationism, it also illustrates his interestin the interrelationships between communities and their environments. Dr. Messier has worked with theInnu Nation and the Cree <strong>of</strong> Quebec to determine the impacts <strong>of</strong> low-level military ßights on caribouhealth and developed a large atlas highlighting the movements <strong>of</strong> polar bears in Canada’s arctic, whichwas translated into Inuit-Inupiaq for use by the local people. In particular, his work on polar bearsrequired signiÞcant interaction with Inuit communities, relationships which resulted in the employment<strong>of</strong> numerous local people in order to facilitate the live capture <strong>of</strong> bears for tagging. His work hascontributed to what one <strong>of</strong> his nominators has described as “bringing Canadian polar bear conservationfrom a somewhat rudimentary state to what more observers feel is one <strong>of</strong> the best mammal managementprograms in the world.”Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Messier’s belief in the importance <strong>of</strong> outreach and public service has also evidenced itself in hisconsiderable voluntary participation in ecological organizations. In 2003, he was invited to participate inthree major public policy committees that conducted independent scientiÞc reviews <strong>of</strong> the management<strong>of</strong> grizzly bears in B.C. and the recovery <strong>of</strong> threatened mountain caribou in the Rocky Mountains. He hasalso served as a member <strong>of</strong> an independent environmental monitoring promoting good environmentalmanagement at the Ekati Diamond Mine in the Northwest Territories. This work created relationshipswith several First Nations and Métis groups and permitted interactive exchanges <strong>of</strong> traditional Aboriginalknowledge and leading edge research.Dr. Messier’s work is exceptional and he does this in addition to serving as the Department Head <strong>of</strong> theDepartment <strong>of</strong> Biology at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>. He exempliÞes through his outreach activitiesthe ways in which a university pr<strong>of</strong>essor and administrator can positively engage and inßuence the publicsphere.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> 14 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong> <strong>2006</strong>
