The Bishop’s Effect
This spring, Principal Robert
Poupart sent e-cards to alumni
who were celebrating special
anniversaries of their graduation
from Bishop’s. Below are some of
their replies.
I hope my nephew’s son Wesley
enjoys as much benefit from
Bishop’s as this old bodger.
John Chappell ’36
Our memories are still fresh
and happy ones. We will be
forever grateful for our years and
experiences and above all our
education at Bishop’s.
Jean ’51 & Bob Hayden ’51
I moved onto the campus in
1945 as my father taught
chemistry at Bishop’s and
eventually became the Dean of
Science in the late 60s. The article
about moving the library with a
wagon in the recent alumni
magazine was my first summer job
and it is true that Arnold Banfill’s
nephew and I moved the entire
library with two wagons. It was a
long summer.
My son Adam graduated in
honours Chemistry in 1999 and
completed his Ph.D. at Queen’s,
making him the third McCubbin in
a row to earn his Ph.D. in
chemistry with an association with
both Bishop’s and Queen’s. I have
taught chemistry at Lakefield for
over 30 years and encourage good
Lakefield students to go to
Bishop’s. It is a part of the
McCubbin family.
Alex McCubbin ’66
I have always loved saying I
am a Bishop’s grad. Every time I
put on a robe to attend my
school’s convocation, I proudly
donned the purple and white.
Bishop’s played an important role
in my passion for teaching and
learning. It made me realize what
one can do with one’s talents and
interests.
Elizabeth Robinson
Mackinnon ’66
I have no doubt my years at
Bishop’s had much to do with
what I accomplished. The beauty
of Bishop’s is that students need
not get lost in the numbers. It is
small enough for everyone to have
an identity, yet the quality of
education is second to none. It
provides a solid platform of
knowledge from which any
student should be able to take on
the world. I am proud when
reading about Bish alumni and
what they have accomplished. I
suspect that such accomplishments
and attendance at Bishop’s are not
a coincidence.
Dean Apps ’71
Keep up the good work. It is
one of the best places to get an
education in Quebec. Small,
intimate, good teachers and one of
the most beautiful campuses.
Barbara Perry Cartmel ’91
I frequently look back at my
time spent at Bishop’s fondly and
keep in touch with many of the
people I met while there. Bishop’s
was a great experience and
launchpad for my career.
Jeff Bean ’96
This fifth anniversary
coincides with my graduation from
the MBA program at U of T. My
degree from Bishop’s has served
me well indeed.

The new bridge over the
Massawippi River, renovated
last fall to the tune of $2.3
million, had two large potholes
which proved difficult to
repair. Steel plates were placed
temporarily over the holes, and
through June, July and August
the bridge had only one lane
open while extensive repairs
were made.
“This is an experimental
The new bridge already has potholes because it is “too flexible.”
bridge made from
experimental materials, and the potholes were created due to the bridge’s flexibility. It
seems too flexible,” a spokesperson from the Ministry of Transport said. “If we had
used concrete it would have been too heavy to keep the arches. This is nothing serious.
The bridge is perfectly safe.” He said no decision has been made concerning the
request from Bishop’s students to have the arches painted purple.

The Apartment, Norton Hall
“Vélo universitaire” is
the title of a photograph by
Céline Dionne of
Sherbrooke I purchased
recently. I call it “The
Apartment, Norton Hall.”
Norton Hall is in the
background in the photo.
That bay window, just below
the bicycle’s handlebars and
behind the bush, shows my
room during my first year at
Bishop’s. Although Norton
Hall was then a residence
housing 200 men, six “freshettes” lived in one of the professor’s ground floor
apartments under the guidance-and supervision of a graduate student in Education.
When I, a meek and mild “freshette,” was first directed there in the fall of 1956,
I was upset. I wanted to be in Pollack Hall, the women’s residence! In those days,
however, one did not speak out, and I later came to appreciate the situation. The
other girls in Norton were terrific. The Education student was a gem, great fun and
most understanding. We all became close friends and still share a special bond.
We surmised that our presence was an experiment, “streaming.” I am happy to
say that we probably disproved the theory of streaming. We did not all quit before
graduation, nor did we all go on to graduate school. We all turned out pretty well,
probably just as we would have had we been in Pollack Hall.
The Apartment brings back a flood of memories — the big tree that stood out
front and came down that fall; the “Seven Dwarfs,” our ice sculptures for Winter
Carnival (“But where is Snow White?”, everyone asked.); traipsing out to chapel
with the graduate student; dashing over to the cafeteria on cold winter mornings
wrapped up in our gowns; eating leftovers from the Chinese Dinner. In the
photograph, Norton Hall is not as sharply in focus as the foreground. That makes it
even more appropriate. After all, these memories were forged fifty years ago.
Lillian (Lu) Rider ’59
Some people leave a piece of
themselves at Bishop’s
I was the student who slid down the
“Bishop’s” bridge and encountered a sharp
metal object, 25 years ago.
It was a Friday the thirteenth. Of
course it was asinine of me, but that night
a few of us were going from campus to the
Lion and I decided to walk over an arch, as
I had many times before. Seeing that the
top of the bridge held a couple of inches of
powdery snow, I recalled that my
roommate Sue McCowan ’83 had a dream
that I had fallen off the bridge and hurt
myself. To prevent her premonition from
coming true, I chose to descend the
backside of the arch by sliding on the seat
of my pants.
Unfortunately, near the bottom I
suddenly felt like I had been goosed and
we all heard my pants rip. Soon we
discovered that quite a bit of me was
ripped too. (by the time we got back to my
room in Munster there was blood in both
my socks.)
We never made it to the Lion that
night as we had to take my sorry ass to the
Sherbrooke hospital for fifty stitches to
close a gaping wound. Dixon Kenner’s
letter was correct (hi Dixon!) – I had slid
over the sharp metal remnants of a
“caution” sign that someone had removed
from the bridge by twisting and bending
the stem until it snapped. I was the butt of
jokes for a month but this was no skin off
my ass.
The lesson? Obviously, don’t walk
over the arches of the Lennoxville bridge.
And please, kids, think twice before
removing warning signs from public
infrastructures – the ass you save may be
mine! Greetings to all classmates, with
fond memories,
Kris(tin) Trotter ’83 ([email protected])
P.S. I considered sending a photo of my
scar but decided this would show much
too much cheek.
We want to hear from you. Please write to:

Convocation 2006

O
n June 10, Convocation 2006 was held outdoors for the
first time in many years. Bishop’s was informed by
Sherbrooke Fire and Safety officials that last year’s
ceremony exceeded the legal capacity of the John H. Price
Sports Centre by hundreds of people. Three options were
considered: split the graduation class into two separate
ceremonies, limit graduates to a maximum of two guests, or
move Convocation outdoors. After much consideration, we
chose the third option.
On Convocation day the temperature dropped, the wind
howled, rain fell relentlessly. Unfortunately, Bishop’s had
devised no fail-safe alternative and graduating students and
their families were unable to properly celebrate the occasion.
Principal Poupart sent a letter of apology to the Class of ’06,
and the University will make different plans for the Class of ’07.
Despite the weather, Bishop’s was proud to confer degrees
on 588 students (370 women and 218 men).
Business:
134 graduates (61 women, 73 men)
Education:
109 graduates (90 women, 19 men)
Humanities: 159 graduates (113women, 46 men)
Natural Science and Mathematics: 54 graduates
(26 women, 28 men)
Social Sciences: 132 graduates (80 women, 52 men)
Bishop’s honoured two distinguished Canadians with its
highest honour, Doctor of Civil Law honoris causa.
Warren Allmand was appointed President of Rights &
Democracy in February 1997 following a 33-year career as a
Liberal Member of Parliament for the Montreal riding of NotreDame-de Grâce. He served in the Trudeau cabinet from 197279. A lawyer admitted to the Quebec Bar in 1958, he holds
degrees from St. Francis Xavier University and McGill, and a

Keeping the markets honest
As head of the Alberta Securities Commission, Bill Rice ’68 knows how
vulnerable stock markets are when people lose faith in their integrity.
“T
rust is an essential component in the financial
environment,” says Bill Rice ’68, Chair and CEO of the
Alberta Securities Commission (ASC). He should know. He is
head of an organization whose mandate is to ensure that capital
markets have integrity, are fair and have the confidence of
investors. On top of that, he and other executives at the ASC
have spent the last year trying to reestablish the trust of the
media and government when it was shaken after a number of
internal personnel issues became public. “We rebuilt the
management group and reorganized the Commission to
reestablish an air of normalcy for the organization instead of
going from fire to fire and reaction to reaction. We have worked
hard to show that the ASC was doing its job and continues to do
so, that things are being dealt with properly and fairly, and we
have control over the markets.”
One-third of the staff at ASC work in the enforcement of
securities legislation and rules. “Most illegal activity is exposed
by complaints by investors or professional participants in the
capital markets. The complaints are assessed, investigated and
prosecuted if the Enforcement Department deems it appropriate.
We have a whole team of investigators, often ex-police officers,
accountants and lawyers who work in this area.”
Proceedings are most frequently undertaken against
individuals. “There are not generally corrupt companies, but
poorly behaving people. Bad behaviour is hard to maintain if
you expect everyone in the company to do it.” The most
common offences are insider trading (buying or selling a
security by insiders who possess information that is not public),
market manipulation (trading activities that have an artificial
impact on prices) and the illegal sale of securities (by people or
securities not registered or companies filing a misleading
prospectus).”
“This is a wonderful time for people in the
financial sector to gain experience, knowledge
and exposure, and to make a good living. But
never cut corners on expertise and integrity.”
Illegal activities jeopardize the confidence in the capital
markets which, Bill claims, threatens the effectiveness and
possibly existence, of the markets. That doesn’t mean to say
there could be another general stock market crash. “People will
invest in other markets if they do not believe the market is run
with integrity and fairness for both the small and big investor.”
As head of ASC, Bill works with representatives of other
Canadian security commissions to develop policy in the field of
securities regulation. Policies they are currently discussing
include the reporting and evaluation of internal accounting
controls to ensure accounting records and processes in
companies are accurate, the disclosure of executive

rather than with each
province.
Bill’s list of “hot” topics in the financial sector include:
• hedge funds: these have grown dramatically in the past few
years and more people are involved in them. They are not
regulated to any significant degree and this is becoming a
focus of national and international scrutiny.
• best practices: after the Enron and Tyco scandals, people want
to be assured boards of directors do their jobs and senior
executive officers are under strict controls. Regulatory
commissions must determine what governance rules should
apply and whether companies held by families or single
shareholders should have a different set of rules.
• self-regulatory organizations (SROs): regulatory commissions
like the ASC supervise organizations that regulate themselves
(e.g. investment dealers association, stock exchanges). A
review is currently underway as the role of many of these
organizations is changing.
• International Organization of Securities Commissions
(IOSC): Markets are now internationally competitive, and
there is heightened concern that people in other countries
have confidence in Canadian markets. Provincial securities
commissions are working to harmonize practices across the
country, and Canada often looks at U.S. rules to make sure its
rules will allow for cross-boarder trading and the movement
of investment funds. An international commission would also
force less developed countries to follow international
standards if they wish to establish a market.
Bill’s advice for young alumni in the financial sector? “This
is a wonderful time to gain experience, knowledge and exposure
and to make a good living. But never cut corners on expertise
and integrity. Know your business. You may be able to bluff for
a while, but it will not last. Many sectors are complicated, but
the more complicated your business is, the more value you will
have. Do not be tempted to make a decision without appropriate
analysis. And never compromise. Your reputation for integrity is
critical. You may think that you are making a compromise in
one instance only, but you can finish your career or your ability
to advance. Trust is essential for this environment to work.”
From donuts to
diagnosis
Father Steve and sons Reg ’90 and Brian ’90 Allatt have found a
niche in the insurance business that has allowed their family
company to become a leader in North America.
A
lthough Reg ’90 and Brian ’90 both worked in the family
business, Allatt’s Bakery, as children, they had completely
different views of the experience. “I always knew I wanted to
be in business some day. I tell my children that when I was ten
years old, I worked Saturday mornings making donut boxes and
at 13, I had my first summer job in the bakery,” says Reg with
pride. Brian is more ambivalent. “I had no desire to be in the
food industry as a kid. I liked donuts, but that was about it. It’s
very long, hard work, seven days a week.” The bakery was in
business until 1973 when the family sold it to Weston, and then
continued to sell baked goods but not breads until 1983.
Reg started selling life insurance in their father’s insurance
brokerage firm in the 1980s and Brian, after graduating from
Bishop’s, found himself being interviewed and offered jobs by
insurance companies in Montreal. He decided to join the family
business — etfs — and stay in the Eastern Townships.
In 1992 many provincial governments decided to cut their
contribution to out-of-country medical emergencies. “My father
saw the opportunity,” says Reg. “We sold $20,000 of travel
insurance premiums the first year, the next year about $900,000,
and it kept growing.” Today the company administers over $300
million in premiums for health and travel insurance.
The largest driver of the growth of etfs, however, is its case
management and cost containment services. “In 1996 we
decided that, in order to be successful as a travel insurance
broker, we would also have to start an assistance company. We
hired nurses and a doctor to manage medical emergencies that
we were selling the insurance for,” says Reg.
etfs found there was a need for cost containment for
insurers of people travelling in the U.S. “The U.S. has the most
expensive health care in the world,” says Brian. “The hospital
system is entrepreneurial, so different groups get charged
different prices. If a patient is international, the hospital might,
for example, try to charge $250,000 for a heart transplant where
under an American plan they would charge $50,000. Our job is
to pay a fair and reasonable price based on our understanding of
the system in a particular hospital. In the U.S. there are actually
courses to help hospitals bill treatments and medications in

business and extremely complicated, but we have mastered it.”
“We’ve put a great deal of effort into understanding the
financial drivers in the U.S. healthcare system,” says Reg. We
have to be aggressive and at the same time get hospitals to
recognize that we are just looking for a fair deal. We can often
offer our international clients guarantees that are superior to the
financial performance they are getting from their current
suppliers. We have clients in over 20 countries around the world
and pay about $200 million in U.S. medical bills a year.”
Although their emphasis is on international clients, about onefifth of this side of the business serves groups in the U.S. “From

The fast growth of the company has been a challenge. “We’ve
had to learn from our failures,”says Reg. “We have always
invested in people and it’s always people who have made us
grow. Every year or two we have to evolve the way we manage
the company because what works in a small organization does
not work in a larger one. We now employ over 400 people.”
“We have to keep good morale in the company, continue to
work on structure, improve systems, communications, quality of

relationships with our clients. And we must make sure we are

Youth Symposium
ACE
— the Association of College Entrepreneurs — is
a national university organization that encourages
students to engage with their communities and communicate
entrepreneurial values. On March 16, 2006, eight ACE Bishop’s
students partnered with more than 20 provincial and federal
agencies and educational institutions to help stage a “Youth
Symposium” at Heritage Regional School in Saint Hubert QC.
More than 100 Secondary V students from four English School
Boards attended the symposium, billed as “Entrepreneurship:
Unlock the Possibilities.” Bishop’s was at the centre of the
action, behind the scenes, and just about everywhere else, too.
Each of three Bishop’s teams led two workshop sessions,
and just about every participant selected at least one session
offered by the ACE teams. Alexi Lachambre and Michael
Cestnik led a session titled “Yourself Inc.” which had students
reflect on how to “market” themselves effectively. Robb
Schaeffer, Kevin Larocque and Andrew Simboli talked to 60
kids about “Making Cents: Financial Literacy,” and Andreas
Reissner and Adam Vokes introduced participants to the
entrepreneurial concept of “Opportunity Recognition.”
I was impressed by the intelligent thoughtfulness of the
workshop themes developed by ACE President Sam Saintonge
and his team, and by the way ACE students involved
participants in their workshop sessions. Eight teachers from two
school boards spoke to Robb Schaefer about repeating his
financial literacy program at their schools, and the next day we
received and had to turn down — end of term, exams — a
number of requests for repeat sessions at individual schools.
The Youth Symposium was coordinated — with plenty of
help from the schools and workshop presenters — by The
Community Table’s South Shore representative Debbie
Horrocks, South West Quebec’s Stacey Dakin and our own
region’s Martha Crombie. The Table links federal ministries that
share responsibility for programs in support of Canada’s
Co-operative Education:

ven though the Williams School of Business Co-operative
Education Program is still quite young, its list of employers
keeps growing, and its worldwide reputation continues to
solidify. However, some people still wonder what Co-op is and
why it has become more important than ever in Canadian
universities.
In order to gain relevant knowledge, university students
must not only learn theory but also have access to practical
work experience. Our Co-op Program is a great opportunity for
students to strengthen the link between theoretical knowledge
and real-world applications, all the while serving to confirm
students’ career choices. Luckily, due to increasing numbers of
qualified students from different concentrations who join our
Co-operative education year after year, Bishop’s Co-op Program
can boast a varied and motivated student workforce.

Official Language Minorities.
Behind the scenes, Bishop’s Dobson-Lagassé Centre helped
shape the Community Table’s entrepreneurial approach,
whereby citizens are encouraged to identify opportunities for
economic and social initiative. The Centre also works with the
Table to develop a network of advisors available to help
English-speaking entrepreneurs outside the Montreal area.
The workshops offered by Bishop’s students could be
viewed as the culmination of a great deal of effort over an
extended period of time and a test of the Table’s —and the
Centre’s — ability to communicate entrepreneurial values.
Participants agreed: the Youth Symposium had encouraged
secondary students to think seriously about their own
innovative, leadership and entrepreneurial potential.
The coordinators had nothing but praise for the Bishop’s
students: “I was very impressed by the ACE students — their
subject knowledge and the professionalism they displayed was
excellent. . . . You could feel the electricity and the excitement
in the room.” “There was super energy in the school . . . people
were enthusiastic, outgoing, talkative, sharing, and interested.”
“Having university students address youth allows for an
interesting exchange of ideas and an interaction that is not
always possible. . . . Together we created an opportunity for
many people to network, exchange and explore the idea of
entrepreneurship.” These sentiments were echoed in comments
by teachers who accompanied their students,
And the students? Well, the overwhelming majority
enjoyed their day. “Animators were understanding and knew
what they were doing.” “I learned a lot.” “They made it fun.”
One consistent complaint: “We should have been allowed to do
more workshops.” It doesn’t get much better than that.
can help
This is why we need you, our valued alumni and friends, to
get involved in the Co-op education process. To be able to offer
students a wide variety of interesting and challenging work
placements, we require the help of people who are in the
business world — in other words, people like you!
Please see our website at www.ubishops.ca/coop for
further information about the program and for application
deadlines. Employers who visit our website will not only find
out more about Co-operative education, they will also discover
many advantages of hiring a Bishop’s Co-operative student.
We hope you will be one of our Co-op partners next year!

Sixty golfers participated in the inaugural tournament at the Falcon
Golf Club in Hudson. It was great fun. Everyone who participated
raved about the service they received throughout the day. The
course was in excellent shape, and at the end of the day we had it
to ourselves — several took advantage of this by playing a few
extra holes. Following golf, we had a cocktail hour followed by a
very hearty mechoui meal. Every golfer left with a nice gift thanks
to our silent auction. We have several people committed to taking
this event to new heights in the years to come. A special thanks to
everyone who participated. Over $4,000 was raised for the
Montreal Alumni & Friends Award, which will be given to a
student(s) from the Montreal region entering Bishop’s in fall 2006.
Toronto
Thank you to Mike '82 & Paula Roy for hosting a
reception at the Ottawa Hunt Club. This was a beautiful

year and who always graciously support the
tournament (the list is long!). Thank you to
everyone who supported this event.

the club, Alex recently
donated and placed permanent plaque recognizing Bishop’s
University on the 18th hole tee box. Thank you Alex!

FYI
Financing university education
Almost 75% of senior high school students expect to receive a scholarship for university, but only
43% actually will. Over 80% of high school students who plan on going to university expect support
from their parents or families, but only half of first year university students say they actually receive
such support.
Parents also tend to be overly optimistic about their child’s prospects: 66% believe their child will
receive a scholarship, and 64% think their child will receive a government loan or grant, whereas
only 30% first-year university students actually do.

DONATE securities
and SAVE taxes on your
capital gains
I
n the budget of May 2, 2006, the Conservative government
implemented its campaign promise to eliminate capital gains
tax on gifts of publicly traded securities to registered charities
— such as Bishop’s. The change became effective immediately.
When you donated securities previously, you had to pay tax on
25% of the increased value. This tax has been eliminated. Good
news for you and for Bishop’s University.
Here’s an example of tax savings to be realized
by donating your securities rather than the
proceeds of their sale:

A Message from the Principal
he following pages list the names of
Bishop’s supporters — alumni,
associates, faculty, staff, parents,
corporations and foundations — who
generously gave to Bishop’s in the past
fiscal year.
This year 2,300 donors contributed
a total of $1,583,145 to the University.
To both those who chose to give to Bishop’s
for the first time and those who faithfully
support the University each year, thank you
for your financial support.
At Bishop’s, we are aware of the trust
you have placed in us to make sure your gift

The “Donor Designations” chart on the
following page identifies the priorities you

well as our highest priority which helps to
finance our scholarship programme.
Many donors also chose to support
academic enrichment: guest speakers,
artists-in-residence, field trips, academic
competitions, internships and research.
No matter where you direct your gift,
you can be sure that you are helping our
students to, as our mission statement says,
“develop their talents and realize their
leadership potential.” It is a heartwarming
experience to see young people grow into
informed, thoughtful and responsible adults.
I hope you take pride in the role you play in
the remarkable transformation students

Bishop’s is committed to meeting this
challenge without compromising the
qualities that make our University special.
With your continued support, we will
succeed.
Sincerely,
Robert Poupart
Principal and Vice-Chancellor

Winning a scholarship has allowed
me to further my education without
worry of financial distress. It has
also allowed me to experience
another part of our country that I
may otherwise not have been able to.
I am very grateful to have received
the award and will try my hardest to
honour the responsibility that comes
with it.

Long serving staff retire
Peter Cunningham
A
fter 22 years of
teaching at the
Williams School of
Business, Professor
Peter Cunningham,
CA, MBA, retired on
July 1, 2006.
The entire BU
community wishes to
pay a warm tribute to a remarkable
colleague who, whether as a member of
various committees, as Head of the
Business Department or simply, as a
colleague and counselor, has been a truly
committed mentor for the whole
University.
Professor Cunningham was educated
at Praetoria University in South Africa
where he was born and lived until 1965
when he moved to Canada. Prior to
becoming an accounting professor at BU
in 1984, Professor Cunningham taught at
McGill University, where he was also the
Continuing Education Assistant Director.
Since his arrival at BU, the accounting
department has blossomed under his
leadership and the University is now
well recognized in the field of
accounting education.
Professor Cunningham has provided
rigorous training and a strong
background in accounting to Bishop’s
students going on to further study in
accounting as well as teaching the basics
of accounting to business students who
graduate in other concentration areas at
the Williams School. He did this by
concentrating on delivering excellence in
his courses and tirelessly ensuring the
curriculum was updated and developed.
When I was asked to write
approximately 500 words about Peter, as
a good accountant, I immediately started
counting. Impossible task indeed!
• Thousands of hours studying and
working to obtain the chartered
accountant designation in South
Africa (1964) and Canada (1978) and
a MBA from McGill University
(1982).
• 15 years as an accountant and
auditor/tax supervisor in professional
firms.
• 9 years at Mc Gill University as an
accounting professor.
• 22 years at Bishop’s.
• Over 7,000 students at BU!
• At least 180 courses taught at BU, as
Peter was always willing to teach
extra courses to help students when
there were faculty shortages.
• Committees, committees, committees…
• Hundreds of CDS of jazz and
classical music, listened, borrowed,
lent and sometimes lost!
• Incalculable, his love of sports, rugby
in particular
• Thousands of smiles and lively chats
• Countless qualities, not to forget his
characteristic modesty. Peter is a
generous person, full of humor, and
yet capable of fighting for his
opinions. He is an unforgettable
colleague.
Peter, there is something we will not
count: our many thanks for all you have
accomplished and done for this
University!
It is difficult to envision the
Accounting Department and the Williams
School of Business without Professor
Peter Cunningham. However, Peter, you
have accomplished more than your share
of work. The entire Bishop’s community
will miss an exceptional teacher, an
irreplaceable, kind and caring colleague.
We wish you a very happy and fruitful
retirement in the company of your wife
and two sons. Well deserved.
Camille Lessard
Associate Professor,
Williams School of Business
years has been the unflagging support of
those individuals who offered personal
counselling to students.
In 1990, Dr. Rosa Morell (Ph.D.
Queen’s) was hired to direct the
Counselling Service at Bishop’s, and few
could have guessed the department
would grow over her 16-year tenure to
its current operation of five employees.
At the outset, Rosa’s challenges
were varied: managing counselling
services and a diverse case load of
students, most of whom were away from
home for their first time and were
linguistically cut off from many services
in the community. As enrolment at
Bishop’s continued to grow, an
increasing number of students arrived
with special needs. Largely thanks to the
dedicated efforts of Dr. Morelli, Senate
endorsed a policy in 1993 confirming the
University’s commitment to provide
additional services to students with
special needs.
When the Canada Employment
Office moved off campus in 1993, Dr.
Morelli assumed new responsibilities
within the Department to provide career
Rosa Morelli
T
he 1990s at
Bishop’s saw the
formal beginnings of
a unified Student
Services team whose
mission includes
providing a centre
“where service to
students is
encouraged and where a caring
community supports the well-being of
each individual.” Paramount to the
personal and academic success of a great
number of students over the past 16

counselling and job search techniques to
students. Today, as a result of Rosa’s
leadership and vision, the Counselling
and Employment Resource Centre is
comprised of three full-time counsellors
and two assistants who offer students
personal counselling, career counselling,
and special needs services. These
services are complemented by a resource
centre where current information on
graduate programs, study and career
reference material and self help books
and periodicals is maintained. A peer
tutoring service rounds out the offerings
of the department and is available to
students wishing to benefit from the help
of a qualified senior student.
Dr. Morelli has always maintained
that service to students comes first and
she has been available unfailingly to
support thousands of students in their
times of need — day or night. In retiring
from Bishop’s, Rosa describes her future
as follows: “I will do what many
students do upon graduation, though it
has taken me 16 academic years to do
so: I will take a year off, with no
commitments other than to mull over
what I want to do with the rest of my
life.” She does, however, plan to do
some volunteer work and, as she says, “I
will be giving back to the University.”
The entire campus community will
miss Rosa, but it is with our best wishes
for her future that we bid her au revoir.
We thank her for her professionalism,
compassion, friendship and, most of all,
for her commitment to promote the wellbeing of each individual in the Bishop’s
community.
Bruce Stevenson ’76
Dean of Student Affairs and
Director of Ancillary Enterprises
among other sensitive matters. In
addition to this responsibility she has
taught academic courses, prepared and
delivered workshops, assisted with
departmental functions and contributed
to Resident Assistant training.
When asked about the changes she
has witnessed at Bishop’s over her
career, Lies said: “I have seen women
becoming more assertive and men more
in touch with their feelings. Many more
males are now coming in for personal
counseling than 15 years ago. Although
double standards still exist, along with
some role confusion, I consider the
narrowing of the gender gap and the
wider acceptance of diversity as very
positive trends.”
Lies Ouwerkerk has always had a
great rapport with students and she has
helped establish easier access to the
Counselling Service by demystifying the
sometimes faulty conception of a
“shrink.” She has worked hard at
convincing students that it is actually not
such a big deal, yet a very wise decision,
to talk to her or her colleagues. Lies has
counselled with an ethic of
empowerment and trust, helping students
pursue their goals with confidence while
not holding them too tightly by the hand.
She believes there is no greater
satisfaction than witnessing initially
struggling or confused students
eventually spread their wings as
confident and accomplished alumni. As a
teacher, her courses Psychology of the
Couple and Counselling the Older Adult
became hits in the mid 90’s.
The entire Bishop's community will
miss Lies, and we thank her for her
contributions over the years. We extend
our best wishes for much success and
enjoyment in her private practice and in
her adventure travel, photography and
other creative endeavours.

Lies Ouwerkerk
I
n 1991 Lies
Ouwerkerk had
recently emigrated
from the Netherlands
and was looking for
employment in Canada
as a psychological
counsellor. When the
opportunity presented itself at Bishop’s,
she was immediately attracted to the idea
of working at a relatively small university
with a prestigious reputation , its pastoral
setting and most importantly, the
friendliness of its community
After 15 years of service to the
Counselling and Employment Resource
Centre and the University community,
Lies has decided to retire, to dedicate
herself to her private practice in North
Hatley and to continue writing a regular
column in the local newspaper, The
Record.
The life of a counselor is by nature a
very confidential one. Lies’ primary role
at Bishop’s was to be available to help
students deal with personal concerns
related to adapting to university life,
family problems, relationships,
difficulties with drugs and alcohol,

E. Roger Boothroyd ’38 on May 30, 2006. Roger was
born on April 2, 1918 in Lennoxville, the youngest son of
Eric “Boots” Boothroyd, Professor of History at Bishop’s,
and grew up around the university. He graduated from
Bishop’s and then McGill. He taught at Bishop’s 1945-46,
before moving on to a professorship in the Genetics
Department at McGill. Although he enjoyed research, his
true love was teaching. In his 45-year career at McGill, he
inspired multiple generations of students with his love for
his subject and served as a mentor for many. After finally
retiring, he moved to Langley BC to pursue his other love:
gardening. Roger was a man of gentleness and wit, of
intelligence and integrity. He will be missed by students,
friends and colleagues, and by his family. He always felt
most at home in Lennoxville and the Eastern Townships.
His memorial service was held in St. Mark’s Chapel on
June 26, 2006. His obituary requested donations to
Bishop’s University Foundation.

John David (Dave) Savage ’42
ave Savage ’42 died on April 26, 2006
D
at the age of 84. He was a wonderful
husband, father, veteran, educator, dancer,
musicia and , book collector.
When Dave graduated in 1942 from
Bishop’s, the yearbook described him as
“one of those fortunate people who can do
everything at the same time — but well.” He
excelled scholastically, played on several
university sports teams, was president of the
students’ association, and found time to act as drummer for a
local group called the Jerks of Jive. He obtained a degree in
math and physics but was not present at his convocation
because he and others had left early to join the RCAF, thereby
gaining an exemption from their final examinations.
Convoys were taking troops to England in anything that
would float. Dave’s transport happened to be a former banana
boat, a fact he learned with some trepidation. He arrived safely
and was posted to a radar installation in Devonshire where he
met Peggy, his future wife, an English WAAF (Women’s
Auxiliary Air Force) who was working on the same station. They
were married there in 1944, a union that was to last for 61 years.
Dave returned to Canada in 1945 but Peggy had to wait
until she could travel with all the other war brides; she arrived
in 1946 to join Dave in Montreal where he was teaching
veterans at Sir George Williams University (now part of
Concordia). He then took teacher training at McGill and started
his career at Granby High School, in the Eastern Townships of
Quebec. All four of their children (Susan, Jayne, Christopher
and Murray) were born during this period. In 1960 they moved
to Rosemere, Que., and he retired there as principal of the high
school in 1981.

Dave was a very popular teacher and administrator and
years after retiring he still encountered former students who
recognized him and spoke fondly of their time in his school or
classroom. As an educator, he usually had the summer off. The
car would be packed with everything necessary for two months
of camping and off they would go, usually to New England,
returning just in time for school reopening in the fall. Dave
liked to entertain the backseat passengers with spirited rounds
of wartime songs like K-K-K-Katy (which would always
involve versions with every child’s name) and Pack Up Your
Troubles in Your Old Kit Bag.
Dave could play almost any musical instrument. There is a
photograph of him just after the war, playing the guitar with his
sister Mary on the mouth organ and his brother Peter on trombone.
In retirement, Dave and Peggy moved to the West Island of
Montreal and developed an interest in round dancing, a form of
ballroom dancing. They made many new friends, both there and
in Florida, where they spent their winters. His grandchildren
enjoyed helping Grampa play the organ, tell Just So Stories
from memory, and make stained-glass projects.
In many respects, Dave was as British as Peggy. They
made their first trip back to England in 1970 and went regularly
after that. British bookstores were great sources for the
illustrated books that Dave collected.
Dave was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1993, but it
went into remission after treatment. He had lung surgery in
2003 and recovered from that as well. In early 2006 he
discovered that the original cancer was back. He died at home.

Ben Williams ’05 (right) and his co-workers
discovered Jamie Saunders ’70 had the same job
40 years ago.
When Jamie Saunders ’70
presented a paper at the annual general
meeting of the Ontario Court of
Justice in June, he visited Oakville,
where he lived in the late 60s.
“I stopped at Coronation Park,
one of many sites I tended as a
grounds keeper for the Oakville Parks
Board during the summer. . . I had my
camera to record some of my
memories, like the place where my
tractor and gang-mower flipped over
in a creek bed almost cutting me in
half, or where I backed a five ton truck
into the side of the depot, making a
single garage door out of two.”
After mentioning to three people
working in the gardens that he had the
same job 40 years ago while attending
Bishop’s University, one of the
workers, Ben Williams, told Jamie he
graduated from Bishop’s, Class of ‘05
and played for the rugby team.
Two days later at Jamie’s
presentation, he included an extract
from Don Murray ’68, Senior
Correspondent with the CBC. “After
completing my lecture, Brian Lennox,
Chief Justice of the Ontario Court of
Justice, told me that he and his wife
often spent time in the Murray home
in Europe. It gets better. Also joining
me on the program was Mr. Justice
Paul Taylor ’69, now a member of the
OCJ and a frat brother of mine!”

arts education from a first class
