New book highlights history

"A university is the consciousness of a community reaching out to a realization of the higher powers of the mind . .." With these stirring words, President John Lewis Paton officially opened the doors of Memorial University College on Sept. 25, 1925. The truth of this statement permeates a new book titled Celebrate Memorial: A Pictorial History of Memorial University of Newfoundland. Memorial published this stunning collection of photographs, newspaper quotes, historical facts and personal anecdotes to celebrate its Festival of Anniversaries. The book was launched at the recent Alumni Weekend celebrations held at Paton College on Aug. 27.

An idea suggested by outgoing university president Dr. Arthur May about three years ago, the book is the result of a collaboration between Memorial University archivist Dr. Mel Baker, information officer Jean Graham, and designer Helen Houston. It has been a major project of the university's Anniversaries Committee.
At the book launch, Dr. May said he was pleased with the results of the collaboration. "I am pleasantly surprised at this book, which in such a small space successfully summarizes 75 years of Memorial University's history," The pictorial history covers the evolution of the university on a nearly decade-by-decade basis, at times almost mirroring the tenures of the presidents from John Lewis Paton and Albert George Hatcher, to Drs. Mose Morgan, Leslie Harris and Arthur May. The glossy, eye-catching cover of Celebrate Memorial: A Pictorial History of Memorial University of Newfoundland shows a collage of colourful Bimages evocative of the lives and minds of Memorial's people. The book retails for $17 and is available at the University Bookstore in St. John's. Efforts are also underway to have the book for sale at locations around the province. Copies can also be ordered through the Festival of Anniversaries Website www.mun.ca/celebrate.
