President’s ReportA Changing SchoolIs there an opportunity for you to help?Over the last four years, a foundation <strong>of</strong>change has been created at UTS. Weare now operating as our own “master”.The <strong>Schools</strong> is being governed by a strong Board<strong>of</strong> Directors with a clear mandate. An experienced,energized Principal is in place who hasthe vision, patience and perseverance requiredto operate and guide the school. Faculty positionshave been expanded and Financial, HR andCommunication personnel have been added. Anaffiliation agreement with U<strong>of</strong> T has now beencompleted to cover the road ahead – the time isnow for change.Leadership for change is ready. To sustaineffectiveness in a constantly changing environment,UTS must be flexible and built to changeso it is able to stimulate and facilitate change. Ourcore values <strong>of</strong> excellence for student educationmust be maintained. Leadership must be heldaccountable and responsibility clearly stated at alllevels. Leadership must be the architect <strong>of</strong> a rejuvenatedand redefined UTS.With change in the organization <strong>of</strong> UTS,consideration needs to be given to how UTSAAcan best serve UTS as it moves ahead. As theAdvancement function is further developed bythe principal, UTSAA stands ready to assist theschool’s future fund raising efforts and examineit own organization to assure compatibility withAdvancement and assure efficiency and effectiveness<strong>of</strong> operation.UTS alumni need to be ready. There are fourmain issues that deserve our fullest attention duringthe next few years:1. As the financial operations <strong>of</strong> UTS have beenreorganized in conjunction with the new U<strong>of</strong> Tagreement, it will be vital to monitor the financialhealth <strong>of</strong> UTS after July <strong>2006</strong>.2. The accountability <strong>of</strong> the financial operation<strong>of</strong> UTS will include all endowment funds andother funds previously managed by U<strong>of</strong> T AssetManagement organization. The UTS Board <strong>of</strong>Directors has set up a public foundation [UTSFoundation] to receive and administer all <strong>of</strong> thesefunds. This is a momentous change in the financialmanagement <strong>of</strong> UTS and deserves our fullestattention and support.3. In conjunction with the formation <strong>of</strong> theFoundation and the need to expand and centralizefund-raising at the school, the UTSBoard <strong>of</strong> Directors and Principal will create anAdvancement Office to coordinate all fundraising,communication and alumni affairs activities. TheUTSAA will continue to be the major supporter <strong>of</strong>these efforts.4. The Redevelopment Project, as outlined in theU<strong>of</strong> T agreement, will be <strong>of</strong> the highest priorityfor the Principal and we stand ready to assist inany way we can.In summary, UTSAA needs to be ready.Looking ahead, we expect that alumni can play akey role in supporting:• the development <strong>of</strong> clear Vision and Missionstatements for UTS• the development <strong>of</strong> an Advancementprogram• the establishment <strong>of</strong> the UTS Foundation• the progress <strong>of</strong> the building redevelopmentplan, as well as,• continuing our representation on the UTSBoard <strong>of</strong> Directors, as positions becomeavailable, and,• keeping informed about the new financialstructure <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Schools</strong>.The opportunities for alumni to participate inthe development <strong>of</strong> UTS have never been greater.Please step up now and lend us your support.Questions and AnswersOver the last year as your president, I have hadthe great opportunity <strong>of</strong> attending many alumniand school events.

President’s ReportThe realquestion ishow manyalumni getinvolved?recurring questions which I am frequently asked.If you have further thoughts or suggestions onany topic, please let me know and I will attemptto address them in the next issue <strong>of</strong> the UTSAAmagazine.QAWhat is the status <strong>of</strong> the funds collected duringthe Preserving the Opportunity campaign?In the five-year period [1994 to 1999], thePreserving the Opportunity bursary endowmentcampaign raised $15 million, including matchingfunds, which has been managed by U<strong>of</strong> T’sAsset Management organization. Close to $4 million<strong>of</strong> income from this endowed fund has beendirected to student bursaries over the past 8 years.QAHow are the funds from the UTSAA AnnualFund distributed?Over the last five years (2001-2005), theUTSAA Annual Fund has collected$847,000 and disbursed $446,000 to the school forbursaries and various other gifts. (For detailedinformation, please refer to past financial statementsin the fall issues <strong>of</strong> UTSAA Magazine). Theremaining funds have been used for operations,including printing and mailing costs for theMagazine and annual funds, audit, E-directory,alumni events and occupancy.QThere have been a number <strong>of</strong> changes in therecent past; what is the status <strong>of</strong> the UTSPrincipal?ASince 1910, ninety-six years ago, we have had12 principals.

UTS Board ReportFinally, Beginning a New ChapterAffiliation agreement with U<strong>of</strong> T <strong>of</strong>fers exciting possibilities.Robert E. Lord ’58Chair, UTS Board<strong>of</strong> DirectorsThe Agreementprovides UTSwith a deficitfree,cleanfinancial start...Dear Members <strong>of</strong> the UTS Community,For nearly 100 years, the affiliation <strong>of</strong> UTS withthe <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Toronto</strong> formed a special foundationupon which we have built a school, uniquein Canada, for academically talented students.On June 30, <strong>2006</strong>, a new Affiliation Agreementbetween UTS and the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Toronto</strong> on theterms approved by the UTS Board on February 28,<strong>2006</strong> was signed, and on July 4, <strong>2006</strong> the Board <strong>of</strong>Directors formally ratified the Agreement.It marked the end <strong>of</strong> two and a half yeartransition period, and the end <strong>of</strong> many months <strong>of</strong>hard effort and careful negotiations on the part <strong>of</strong>UTS negotiating team. The UTS negotiation teamwas comprised <strong>of</strong> myself, James McCartney ’56,David Rounthwaite ’65 and Lesley Dunlop ’79,as well as UTS parents John Jakolev and DougBradley, and former Principal, Malcolm Levin.From the start, the Affiliation Committee,chaired by David Rounthwaite, took the positionthat the negotiations should secure for UTSan agreement that would support the long-termfuture <strong>of</strong> the school. The final result clearlyprovides UTS with the tools to work with the<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Toronto</strong> with respect to both academicprograms and shared premises to ensurethe long term viability <strong>of</strong> the School.The Long-Term Affiliation Agreementconforms to the Term-Sheet agreed with the<strong>University</strong> at the end <strong>of</strong> February. The Committeeworked diligently to finalize the detailed agreement,and when it was signed, UTS was effectivelygiven a fresh start, with no accumulated debt.A Clean StartThe 15-year Agreement opens a new chapterin the history <strong>of</strong> UTS with both exciting possibilitiesand the challenge <strong>of</strong> best realizing theopportunities that are <strong>of</strong>fered through our specialpartnership with the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Toronto</strong>. TheAgreement provides UTS with a deficit-free, cleanfinancial start and the transfer <strong>of</strong> $27 million <strong>of</strong>financial assets to the newly-established UTSFoundation which will manage these endowmentfunds solely for the benefit <strong>of</strong> UTS.There are also a number <strong>of</strong> key items in theagreement that demonstrate the <strong>University</strong>’sintention to continue to see UTS thrive as afinancially viable and independent entity. Theseinclude: a $6 million subsidy to cover rent andservices for four years, a $4 million line <strong>of</strong> creditto address operating contingencies, as well asproviding UTS with an opportunity to secure aproperty interest in any redevelopment project <strong>of</strong>371 Bloor Street West.Finally, to reflect our new autonomy, theprovisions <strong>of</strong> our by-laws mandating that 2 directorsbe appointed by, and certain approvals beobtained from, the <strong>University</strong> have been removedand our Letters Patent <strong>of</strong> Incorporation are beingamended accordingly.A new way <strong>of</strong> managing our relationshipwith the universityIn the next 15 years, UTS has the opportunity toestablish a meaningful academic partnership withits neighbour, OISE/UT and other units in the<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Toronto</strong>. The Agreement formalizesthe way UTS will manage its relationshipwith the <strong>University</strong> through UTS participation onthe Facilities, Planning and the Joint AcademicAffiliations Committees.Much <strong>of</strong> the detail in the Affiliation Agreementdeals with services that will be providedto UTS including full access to the <strong>University</strong>’slibrary services, access to the joint membershipplan, and access to the athletic facilities (withsupervision for UTS students).The Affiliation Agreement requires UTS toentirely fund its own operations by 2010. Thismeans that UTS will then have to cover overheadcosts previously funded by the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>Toronto</strong> and presently covered by the four-yearsubsidy until 2010. New costs will include rent andmaintenance for 371 Bloor Street West, utilities,human resources, payroll and finance services. Fa l l 2 0 0 6 | u t s a l u m n i a s s o c i at i o n m a g a z i n e
UTS Board ReportA License Agreement, entered into underthe Affiliation Agreement, secures all the <strong>of</strong>ficespace currently occupied by UTS administrationand teaching staff, as well as current classroomspace utilization during the school year, and continuedaccess to shared space. OISE/UT Dean,Jane Gaskell and incoming Principal, MichaeleRobertson have a shared understanding on theuse <strong>of</strong> shared space and have committed toexchange services.Joint redevelopment<strong>of</strong> 371 Bloor Street WestThe Affiliation Agreement, which contains adetailed mechanism for the development andevaluation <strong>of</strong> proposals for the redevelopment <strong>of</strong>371 Bloor Street West, will be led by OISE/UTand stands to secure 371 Bloor as a permanentand modern home for UTS. It is a most excitingcollaboration embarked on by two institutionswith a long, intertwined history.If joint efforts with OISE/UT don’t producea feasible plan, UTS can, with consent from the<strong>University</strong>, bring forth its own plan to for consideration.In either case, the Agreement providesthat 1) any proposal will provide UTS with theopportunity to gain some sort <strong>of</strong> property interest;2) at all stages <strong>of</strong> the redevelopment, UTSwill be provided with premises that are sufficientfor it to carry out its objects; and 3) the<strong>University</strong> will cover reasonable costs associatedwith the redevelopment plans. The redevelopmentprocess will be the responsibility <strong>of</strong> thePlanning Committee on which UTS will have atleast two representatives.Some <strong>of</strong> what the future holdsWith the new Affiliation Agreement firmly in place,I am confident that UTS is poised to enter a newand exciting phase in its history. The new agreementwill allow UTS to effectively address manyissues that have been deferred in the past 13 yearsand have increasingly strained our ability to remainfinancially accessible to many eligible students.UTS has begun the process <strong>of</strong> building anAdvancement Unit specifically dedicated to theschool’s long term funding needs. We are currentlyengaged in a search for a Senior AdvancementOfficer to lead our fundraising efforts. UTS isnow able to have its own Foundation operatingat arms’ length, and will be able to approach allpotential donors without <strong>University</strong> restrictionsthat have applied to date. The UTS Foundationand Advancement Office will be working closely toraise and manage our funds to ensure that schoolis sufficiently endowed to support its bursaryneeds. In addition, this unit will be responsible fordeveloping and mounting our capital campaign insupport <strong>of</strong> the joint redevelopment plans for 371Bloor Street West.I hope that this new chapter in UTS historystrikes a chord in hearts and minds <strong>of</strong> many <strong>of</strong>our alumni and parents, who are grateful for theopportunity afforded them and their children inattending UTS.As we embark on this next phase <strong>of</strong> our history,we are very fortunate to have someone <strong>of</strong>Michaele Robertson’s talent and passion to leadUTS. Her intuitive grasp <strong>of</strong> the school’s uniquevalues and understanding <strong>of</strong> the challenges itfaces as well as her steadfast commitment toenhancing student experience have become wellapparent since she took <strong>of</strong>fice. She spent the betterportion <strong>of</strong> May and June meeting with everystakeholder group and spent the summer workingdiligently with members <strong>of</strong> the school’s administrationand the Board <strong>of</strong> Directors to prepare forthe new school year, review our transition needsand forge a renewed alliance with the <strong>University</strong>.The unique position <strong>of</strong> UTS in Canada hasdeveloped a community that exudes energy, creativity,drive and vision. We now have the leadershipand the tools to embrace the world andto form meaningful partnerships that not onlyexpand our horizons, but also benefit the greatercommunity. n UTSSincerely,Bob Lord ’58Chair, UTS BoardAs we embarkon this nextphase <strong>of</strong> ourhistory, we arevery fortunateto havesomeone<strong>of</strong> MichaeleRobertson’stalent andpassion tolead UTS.Our thanks to this issue’s contributors:Copy: Tom Sanderson ’55, Michaele Robertson, Robert Lord ’58,Lily McGregor, Mardi Witzel ’82, Jonathan Bright ’04, Peter Frost’63, Bob Cumming ’65, David Flint ’56, Donna Vassel, DonBorthwick ’54.

Principal’s MessageHelping Our Students is the PriorityThey can realize their full potential when properly supported.Michaele RobertsonPrincipal, UTS...fullindependencewill come infour years andwe must beready for it.Ihave been lucky enough to have had thepast seven weeks relatively free <strong>of</strong> the dailyoperating details <strong>of</strong> school life, and so havebeen able to focus on getting to know some <strong>of</strong>the members <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> community andsome UTS alumni. In one respect, my experiencewith both groups has been strikingly similar:everywhere, I have sensed such good will for theschool, and such hope that it will move into thisnew phase <strong>of</strong> independence with the same pluckinessand success that has characterized its history.People believe that UTS is an important school,not just for the <strong>University</strong> or for the city, but forthe country as well.I came to UTS, drawn by this same belief.UTS <strong>of</strong>fered me the chance to lead a school thattypifies the richness <strong>of</strong> our great multiculturalcity at a time when the city has never been morein need <strong>of</strong> talented young people, committed toa civil society and equipped to contribute to itboth locally and globally. And then there are theevents <strong>of</strong> this summer, which have been soberingfor us all. Among those <strong>of</strong> us who parent andwork with young people, in whatever capacity,there is an increasing awareness <strong>of</strong> the need toeducate them for judgment, for the respect <strong>of</strong>others and for civic responsibility, even at a youngage, along with their more traditional educationin the disciplines. As well as educating studentsfor the world, schools must now create opportunitiesfor students to put their talents to work asparticipants in our society now – not later. UTSstudents are blessed with talent and encouragingthem to put that talent to work in positive ways isthe responsibility <strong>of</strong> all us who are associated withthe school.It is a remarkable fact that UTS has survivedmany challenges to its existence. It has soldieredon in its original home, enlivened by great teachersand wonderful students, supported financiallyby, in succession, the provincial government andthe <strong>University</strong>, and always by its alumni, parents<strong>of</strong> students, and friends. Its many challenges havesharpened the school’s sense <strong>of</strong> survival and it hasprospered even in the most challenging times. Ithink there is every reason to believe that independencewill, in fact, be a benefit rather than aburden to the school.Elsewhere in this publication, you will beable to read about the Affiliation Agreement, itsterms and conditions, and the initial conclusionsthat may be drawn about the school’s direction inthe future. To me, several things are crystal clear:the university has provided a generous transitionperiod so that we may achieve full independencewithout compromising the hallmarks<strong>of</strong> a UTS education, but full independence willcome in four years and we must be ready for it.Being ready involves expanding our operation toinclude those services previously granted by theuniversity, including fund-raising, full financialcontrols and reporting, and prudent management<strong>of</strong> the gifts we have received and will receive inthe future.At the same time, we need to build new relationshipswith the <strong>University</strong>, with OISE, and withour own alumni and families so that the questionGeorge Fierheller ’51 asked me, “What on earthare you going to do about that building?”, can beanswered in a way that will make us all proud.I believe that if you are reading these words,you care about both the traditions and the future<strong>of</strong> UTS. 2010 will be the school’s centennialcelebration and that date will coincide with theschool’s transition to full independence. I hopeyou will plan to become involved in the plans forthat celebration and make a special effort over thenext few years to renew your UTS memories andfriendships. Your continuing interest and pride inthe school mean everything to its future. n UTS Fa l l 2 0 0 6 | u t s a l u m n i a s s o c i at i o n m a g a z i n e

His music leadership transformed the lives <strong>of</strong> scores <strong>of</strong> students:John FautleyThe history <strong>of</strong> UTSis for the most part dominated bystriking and singular personalitiesthat shaped and guided the lives <strong>of</strong>both staff and students alike. Manydedicated teachers have becomesynonymous with the name <strong>of</strong> the schoolthey served so well.John Fautley was one <strong>of</strong> these – ateacher, a mentor, a friend and an administrator– to more than five generations<strong>of</strong> UTS students and, after more than 30years, he will undoubtedly be rememberedfondly. When he arrived at UTS in 1974,the <strong>Schools</strong> had already begun a sweepingshift towards modernization. Boys and girls10 Fa l l 2 0 0 6
were learning in the same classrooms, football andhockey began to be replaced by basketball, volleyballand women’s field hockey as the sports <strong>of</strong>choice, and Principal Don Gutteridge was championingcollaboration and independent thought inall aspects <strong>of</strong> UTS life. As Fautley said, “[It was]a climate which was conducive to arts expansion,”and expansion rapidly became the proverbialname <strong>of</strong> the game.In 1975, the annual inspection <strong>of</strong> the CadetCorps and the Band was pretty much the extent<strong>of</strong> the music department at UTS; within a fewyears, a chamber ensemble, a jazz band and achoir, as well as composition and improvisationclasses were producing music at high levels <strong>of</strong>pr<strong>of</strong>iciency – this marked the first wave <strong>of</strong> musicalgrowth during Fautley’s time at UTS.At a time when quirkiness and experimentationwas the musical norm, Mr. Fautley andsome <strong>of</strong> his students took musical eccentricityto the next level. He recalled one <strong>of</strong> his fondestUTS memories involved “a certain Grade 7class conceiving and presenting a stone-age tribalopera concerning the origins <strong>of</strong> music.” While the‘opera’ may not have been musically or dramaticallycompetent, the notion <strong>of</strong> presenting thehistory <strong>of</strong> music, in a manner never previouslyattempted, was a perfect example <strong>of</strong> Mr. Fautley’spedagogical focus. It was two-fold: fostering curiosity,appreciation, skills and an understanding<strong>of</strong> music in a very broad sense, while providingmusical opportunities <strong>of</strong> many kinds to suit thediverse idiosyncrasies and talents <strong>of</strong> UTS students.This was his unrestrictive bottom-up approach tolearning and producing music, in which the studentsprovide the creative spark and the teacherprovides the necessary means to see the creativitybecome a tangible result.Ron Royer, a present colleague <strong>of</strong> John’s,fondly recalled, “His passion for learning andmusic included a willingness to try new things andto be creative. His youthful enthusiasm and love<strong>of</strong> UTS and its students has been an inspiration tome, my colleagues and the students <strong>of</strong> UTS.”Mr. Fautley (along with Natalie Kuzmich)built a strong and vibrant music program at UTSthroughout the 1980s. It created an environmentin which each individual student’s abilities couldbe used as effectively as possible within a programwhich had been traditionally ensemble-based.Fautley’s emphasis on innovation and cooperationled to the second dramatic shift in the UTSmusic curriculum: what he terms the “simulation<strong>of</strong> a music production house.” In real terms, thiswas the formation <strong>of</strong> class-based and extracurricularmusical groups which performed in the<strong>Schools</strong> and the community, and which organized,promoted, and produced their own concerts – inmany ways, this structure <strong>of</strong> musical collaborationis the same one that exists at UTS today, with severalelements added over the years.One <strong>of</strong> those elements has now becomesynonymous with music at UTS: theyearly compilation <strong>of</strong> student-composed,-performed, and –recorded music knownas the TWIG Tape. Beginning as an experimentinvolving an 8-track recording mixer and a couple<strong>of</strong> handheld microphones in 1985, the TWIGTape, which was once actually produced on audiocassette,is now in its 23rd year <strong>of</strong> production – 13<strong>of</strong> which have been on CD – and has, over theyears, contained the original work <strong>of</strong> more than200 UTS student and alumni composers.Many within the UTS community recognizethe TWIG Tape project as one <strong>of</strong> Mr. Fautley’smost outstanding contributions to musical creativityand growth at UTS without even realizing theadditional and substantial positive side-effects thatits success has had on the UTS music curriculum.In M3 – or grade nine – students in the windprogram are assigned a project with the goal <strong>of</strong>composing, performing, and recording a song in apopular style; this project has been the catalyst formany UTS students to then pursue a compositionorrecording-based Graduation Project, whichhave ranged from electronica to classical violinperformance, to original 2-hour feature musicals.Natalie Kuzmich, a former colleague <strong>of</strong>John’s at UTS in the 1980s and 1990s, remarkedthat, “Many UTS graduates attribute their continuedinterest in music to the nurturing andencouragement they received from John.” Shecontinued, “He is a gifted teacher – articulate,hard-working, inventive, open to new/differentchallenges – constantly looking for ways to engagehis students in music learning.”The TWIG Tape project’s success not only inand <strong>of</strong> itself, but also in terms <strong>of</strong> the curricularand extra-curricular musical life <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Schools</strong>,speaks volumes about Mr. Fautley’s effect onmusic at UTS. The project also marked thebeginning <strong>of</strong> the third dramatic wave <strong>of</strong> change inthe UTS music department: the inclusion <strong>of</strong> technologyin musical learning.Many withinthe UTScommunityrecognize theTWIG Tapeproject asone <strong>of</strong> JohnFautley’s mostoutstandingcontributionsu t s a l u m n i a s s o c i at i o n m a g a z i n e | fa l l 2 0 0 6 11
“He made mechallenge mypre-conceptionsandquestion thestatus quo.In manyways he hasepitomizedwhat is bestabout UTS!”In many considerable ways, the use <strong>of</strong> technologyin the classroom is an ever-changing teachingmethod. As technology becomes increasinglyaccessible – both financially and practically – itsusefulness in the creation <strong>of</strong> music, as well as thesimulation <strong>of</strong> Mr. Fautley’s ‘music productionhouse’, changes.One <strong>of</strong> Mr. Fautley’s recent endeavours, theEureka Fellowship, involved developing innovativeways to integrate the specific technology <strong>of</strong>the internet into the music classroom. At first, hefocused on remote collaboration – learning aninstrument at the same time as somebody acrossthe city in real time – but then realized that theinternet, and its various side-technologies, couldbecome an invaluable tool for the production <strong>of</strong>music in a very tangible sense. Two <strong>of</strong> his most valuedcollaborations involved technology as a partnerto music production: broadcasting UTS’ annualmusic concert live over the internet, and recordingthe same concert and producing a live CD to besold immediately after curtain-fall. Both projectswere wildly successful, and true to Mr. Fautley’spedagogical roots, both were student ideas.“Throughout his time at UTS, Mr. Fautleywas a formidable presence both in and out <strong>of</strong> theclassroom, but his focus was always to provide achannel for students to explore their own musicalspaces and to assist those who had the creativityto reach out to new and uncharted waters,” saidMike Shenkman ’97. He remembers, “How muchJohn trusted all <strong>of</strong> his students and believed thatwe should have every resource available to followour interests. There was nothing that he wouldn’tshare – his time, his workspace, his enthusiasmand his confidence – to help us pursue any avenue<strong>of</strong> learning. Right from F1, before I learned tobelieve in myself, John made clear that he believedin me, as a student and as a person. I know I amnot alone in feeling a debt to him that I can neverrepay – for most teachers, trusting one high schoolstudent enough to share an <strong>of</strong>fice key seemsunlikely; for John, there’s a whole community <strong>of</strong> uswhose lives were transformed because <strong>of</strong> his generosity<strong>of</strong> spirit and purpose to his students.”David Weiss ’86 exclaimed, “All my memories<strong>of</strong> JF kind <strong>of</strong> resolve themselves into a ball<strong>of</strong> relentlessly positive energy…and that is JF ina nutshell. He created a bubble <strong>of</strong> possibility andoptimism which was hard to find.”Many success stories in UTS musical history– a mere few <strong>of</strong> which are mentioned in this piece– owe their place in the books to Mr. Fautley’sundying dedication to his students and their ideas.Ron Royer recalled that, “for the last couple <strong>of</strong>years, John has taught string classes. When hestarted with strings, we talked about the challenges<strong>of</strong> teaching beginning string students how to holdand move a bow. John thought about it and inventeda special ‘bowing machine’ with a dowel and aplastic tube. I have never heard <strong>of</strong> anyone creatinganything like this but it really helps students. Thiscreativity and inventiveness is typical <strong>of</strong> John.”Judy Kay, a colleague <strong>of</strong> John’s, remarked,“John has been the most creative, thoughtful, analytical,energetic, positive teacher I have workedwith. I was very lucky to have him as my mentoras I moved from the world <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional performanceto teaching (he had done the same). Hemade me challenge my pre-conceptions and questionthe status quo. In many ways he has epitomizedwhat is best about UTS! He will be missed.”With characteristic humility, however,he refuses to take credit for many <strong>of</strong>them, and rightly so. Natalie Kuzmichsummed it up when she said, “He isgenerous in acknowledging and appreciating theabilities and thoughts <strong>of</strong> others. As well, his openness,his empathy, his eagerness to learn, his ideas,his sense <strong>of</strong> humour makes him a valued colleagueand friend.”Solomon Douglas ’92 said, “I had difficultypicking out one thing because <strong>of</strong> my innumerablememories <strong>of</strong> Mr. Fautley, my favourite teacher.As I walked down the stairs from his <strong>of</strong>fice on mylast day as a student I had one parting thought. Ishouted back, “Can I call you John?” And, he simplyanswered, “May I call you, Sol?”His peers at the helm <strong>of</strong> the music department– Natalie Kuzmich, Judy Kay and Ron Royer– have always, in his own words, “been an inspirationand a reality check,” keeping him groundedwhile letting him fly, and though Mr. Fautleymoves on to new challenges and experiments, UTSMusic is in highly-competent and equally-vibranthands. Though the last 32 years have been magicalin many ways for all <strong>of</strong> those whom Mr. Fautleyinspired, he is content to “sit back and watch themagic continue.” And we all know it will.Weiss summed up the Fautley era at UTSbest, saying, “When John Fautley arrived at UTS,there were marching bands; when he left, therewas music.” n UTSJonathan Bright ’0412 Fa l l 2 0 0 6 | u t s a l u m n i a s s o c i at i o n m a g a z i n e

Tory, Tory, ToryHow UTScarried onthe educationlegacy <strong>of</strong> thefamily’s earlybeginnings inNova Scotia.Since 1920, nine members <strong>of</strong> theTory family, spanning three generations,have attended UTS. Inlooking back at the Tory familyhistory, one thing is quite evident:there has been a very strong commitmentto a ‘good education’.Individually, their accomplishmentsstand out across the generations,and collectively they indicatesome combination <strong>of</strong> ability, opportunity andthe will to excel, as exemplified by their outstandingachievements over many years in business,academe and public affairs.This all started back in Nova Scotia in the1860s, when Robert Kirk Tory and Anorah(Ferguson) Tory had three sons: James, Henryand John. Mrs. Tory was considered a veryremarkable woman, and noted to have encouragedeach <strong>of</strong> her sons toward further education.James Cranwick Tory (b. 1862) attendedMcGill <strong>University</strong>, worked internationally for TheSun Life Assurance Company before being electedto the Nova Scotia legislature for GuysboroCounty. He later served six years as lieutenantgovernor<strong>of</strong> the province.Henry Marshall Tory (b. 1864) was educatedat McGill where he graduated with an HonoursB.A. and the gold medal, and later attendedCambridge <strong>University</strong> in England. He is recognizedas the Founding President <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong><strong>of</strong> Alberta and <strong>of</strong> the National Research Councilin Ottawa.Like his brothers John A. Tory (b. 1869) waseducated at the Guysboro Academy. He workedfor the Sun Life Assurance Company as anInspector for the West Indies and parts <strong>of</strong> SouthAmerica in the 1890s, and served as director forseveral financial corporations.Now, we fast forward several generationsto the early 1970s in <strong>Toronto</strong> when both JohnHoward Tory ’72 and Jim Tory Jr. ’73 recall writingthe UTS entrance exam. John vividly remembersentering the building where he would bespending his middle- and high-school years. Themonitor was a longstanding faculty member whohad been there in his dad’s time. At about 6'5",Mr. Newell presided over the exam with a loomingpresence. In the case <strong>of</strong> Jim Jr., when askedhow he had come to choose UTS, the swift answerwas “I fell into it.” That seemed fair enough giventhe history <strong>of</strong> Torys at UTS over the years.Both John H., his brother, Michael A. ’78 andhis cousin, Jim Jr. followed in a long tradition <strong>of</strong>Tory men attending the school. Their fathers JohnArnold Tory ’46 and James Marshall Tory ’46were both UTS graduates as was their grandfatherJohn Stewart Donald (J.S.D.) Tory ’20. J.S.D.’sbrother, James Marshall (J.M.) Tory ’22, alsoattended UTS and this other branch <strong>of</strong> the familytree, had two UTS graduates Ted Tory ’57 andTim Tory ’60.Tim doesn’t remember writing the UTS exambut he remembers with absolute clarity arrivinghome to find ‘Hallelujah’ printed in bold printacross the envelope containing his UTS acceptance.About the decision to write, he cheerfullysays, “There was no involvement on my part.” Itwas simply something his father wanted him to do.One generation back John A. Tory recallsthat his dad had been keen that he and his twinJames write the exam. The family’s enthusiasm forthe school stemmed from its high academic andteaching standards. Both reflected on the number<strong>of</strong> successful people that emerged from the UTSClass <strong>of</strong> ’46, men in various walks <strong>of</strong> life and business.Both men identified the hard work and highstandards that characterized UTS as intrinsic tothe culture <strong>of</strong> the school and by extension, to howit played a role in shaping the ranks <strong>of</strong> its alumni.In particular, both brothers extolled the virtues <strong>of</strong>this culture that promoted pride in excellence andthe celebration <strong>of</strong> hard work and success.Tim Tory recollects the important role thatUTS athletics played in his time at the school. “Iwas encouraged to do anything I wanted to do16 Fa l l 2 0 0 6 | u t s a l u m n i a s s o c i at i o n m a g a z i n e
athletically, as long as I got first class honours,”he says. His exceptional skill at hockeybecame apparent early at UTS where heserved as goaltender for the senior team inGrade 9. Later, Tim spent three years withthe Varsity Blues while studying architectureat U<strong>of</strong> T. In his own words, UTS “establisheda benevolent discipline” throughout the highschool years. He cites an emphasis on learningthe basics while outlining a whole range<strong>of</strong> opportunities you could tap into. And, hesays, “It was a fabulous place for friendships.”Jim Tory Jr. remarked on the years <strong>of</strong>tremendous change that UTS underwentduring his time there. Starting out, therehad been the old style school desks, fastenedto the floors. The teachers were still called“Masters” and the students wore jackets andties. By the time <strong>of</strong> his departure nothing wasbolted down, there were no standardized,province-wide Grade 13 tests and girls wereon the way in. He remembers the school as ahappy one where he played football, hockeyand debated in the Fulford Cup competitions.And Jim also spoke to the power <strong>of</strong>the UTS culture as a meritocracy, wherebyit encouraged “doing as well as I can do withother like-minded people.”John Howard Tory was the first <strong>of</strong> theTory grandchildren to ‘write for UTS’. Herecalls his experience here as a wonderful time setagainst the backdrop <strong>of</strong> a dynamic social climate.In his words it was a “coincidence <strong>of</strong> timing” withthe late 1960s era <strong>of</strong> rebelliousness. John foundeda school newspaper which latterly became knownas The Cuspidor, was head <strong>of</strong> the Public AffairsSociety and stood as Prefect for Lewis House andTwig editor in his final year.It was at UTS that John’s interest in politicswas stimulated and where he first joined theProgressive Conservative Party. He was sold acard in the hallway in 1969 by his friend and peerWarren Ralph ’71, today a Justice <strong>of</strong> the Peace.John recalls with humour some <strong>of</strong> the mild hijinxin which he and his classmates engaged. Theirmock protest on the Bloor Street lawn with a list<strong>of</strong> demands stipulating “everything and nothing”won media coverage across North America. Thatthey had identified the school principal as “WaldoMacMurray” only exacerbated their disciplinaryposition. John personally abdicated a role inthe protest, having recently brushed with Mr.MacMurray’s <strong>of</strong>fice over his decision to invite theCommunist Party president to speak at the school.All in the name <strong>of</strong> freedom <strong>of</strong> speech, but theinvitation was eventually rescinded.As with each Tory graduate <strong>of</strong> UTS, JohnHoward upheld the value <strong>of</strong> the school as an institutionwhich manifested elitism only in the sense<strong>of</strong> intellectual achievement, embracing peoplefrom a multitude <strong>of</strong> different backgrounds. It isthis notion <strong>of</strong> UTS as a meritocracy that mostcharacterized each <strong>of</strong> my interviews with the family,extolling virtues <strong>of</strong> a place where it is safe towork hard and hip to do well. Or, in the words <strong>of</strong>his Uncle Jim, “It pushed a lot <strong>of</strong> kids to excel.”This is a short article about the Tory family atUTS. Somewhere along the road, a law firm Tory& Tory began, John A. became Lord Thomson’sright-hand person and John H. went back to hisyounger experiences with former Ontario premier,William Davis, and recently became the leader <strong>of</strong>the Ontario PC Party. It could just as easily havebecome a book! n UTSMardi [Crawford] Witzel, UTS 1982The four Torys[Clockwise]: Tim ’60,John A. ’46, John H.’72 and James M. ’46.All, individually, havecarved out very distinguishedcareers.

Office <strong>of</strong> Development and Alumni AffairsA Way to the FutureHave you considered Planned Giving?Don Borthwick ’54UTSAA ExecutiveDirector...the recentfederal governmentbudgeteliminates thetax on capitalgains whensecurities aregifted directlyto a charity.Planned Giving is a very thoughtful way inwhich alumni can honour the traditionsand vision <strong>of</strong> UTS well into the future. Itis an appropriate way to remember your schoolthrough a provision in your will, a bequest orother forms <strong>of</strong> a gift commitment.Planned Giving can be achieved through acharitable provision in your Will that allows thedistribution <strong>of</strong> a donation before filing the terminaltax return. A similar tax saving treatment isavailable on a donation directly from a personalRRIF, provided the charity is the named beneficiary.Also, the recent federal government budgeteliminates the tax on capital gains when securitiesare gifted directly to a charity. This reduces thecost <strong>of</strong> the gift. [See separate article on page 19].UTS has been the benefactor <strong>of</strong> a couple <strong>of</strong>recent Planned Giving gifts. Earlier this year, UTSreceived $100,000 endowment from the Estate<strong>of</strong> James Guillet ’45, former pr<strong>of</strong>essor emeritusin the Chemistry department at U<strong>of</strong> T. Jimhad previously purchased a life insurance policywhich provided the funds for a major scholarshipprogram at both UTS and U<strong>of</strong> T. Also, the schoolrecently received from the Estates <strong>of</strong> Stuart ’27and Jeanette Legge, upon the death <strong>of</strong> the widow,a major pledge which was made ten years agoduring the Preserving the Opportunity bursaryendowment campaign.If planned giving in its many forms is <strong>of</strong>interest to you, more information is available bycontacting the Office <strong>of</strong> Development and AlumniAffairs [416-978-3919].This issue carries a feature article on JohnFautley who retired last June [for the thirdtime!] after being an integral part <strong>of</strong> the MusicDepartment program for over 30 years. Johnand his department colleagues pioneered manyinnovations, with the result that, today, music is avibrant and exciting part <strong>of</strong> the life <strong>of</strong> the schoolin every grade – in many ways thanks to the energy,enthusiasm and commitment <strong>of</strong> John. We wishhim the very best in retirement.The Alumni Association congratulates the studentson their outstanding academic and athleticachievements this past year. Their individual andteam efforts against local, provincial, national andinternational competitors were truly awesome.Unfortunately, the article in this issue mentionsonly some <strong>of</strong> these outstanding performances.At the UTSAA Annual General Meeting onMay 30th, two new directors were appointed toreplace those who are stepping down. On behalf<strong>of</strong> the Association members, I wish to thank StuartNicholson ’92 and Dan Guttman ’91 for their contributionsduring their tenures on the Board. Stuartlives and works in Waterloo and found it difficultwith his business commitments to devote the timeand effort he felt necessary to do the job to hissatisfaction. Dan will be in Australia with his familyduring the next year. We hope both will be ableto resume their participation on the Board in thefuture, as their time becomes more manageable.Replacing these two gentlemen are twooutstanding ladies, Lisa Freeman ’87 and DanaGladstone ’80. Lisa was the first girl to be schoolcaptain [1986-87], and later received her BA atthe <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> North Carolina as a MoreheadScholar and a MBA at the Schulich School <strong>of</strong>Business at York U. Presently, she works as a publicpolicy consultant at Paul Hadley and Associates.Lisa is married to Ray Forzley, has traveled extensively,speaks several languages and is involved inthe performing arts scene in <strong>Toronto</strong>.Dana, having spent 20 years in sales and marketing,is currently Group Account Director atMaclaren Momentum, <strong>Toronto</strong>, a major events marketingagency.

Office <strong>of</strong> Development and Alumni AffairsAnnual Fund ReportAnother Very Successful Campaign!final total:$233,600AThe 2005 Annual Fund set another record,surpassing the outstanding 2004 campaign.The campaign closed June 30th with totaldonations <strong>of</strong> $233,600 – a tremendous responsefrom not only our alumni, but also from some pastparents, current and former staff and friends and acouple <strong>of</strong> foundations and from corporate matchinggift programs.These donations have been directed mainly tothe Student Bursary program, either as endowedfunds [Class <strong>of</strong> 1945 Bursary and Al FlemingBursary–Class <strong>of</strong> 1954] or expendable funds thatfulfilled our earlier commitment <strong>of</strong> providing aminimum <strong>of</strong> $100,000 annually in 2005-06 and<strong>2006</strong>-07 to “top up” the school’s bursary budget.Some <strong>of</strong> these annual fund donations will also goto specific scholarships, which the Classes <strong>of</strong> 1952and 1953] recently established on their 50th anniversaries,to the Anthony Chan Memorial and tothe Class <strong>of</strong> 1949’s project.Congratulations go to the Classes <strong>of</strong> 1945,1946, 1949, 1954, 1971 and 1988 for their excellentlevel <strong>of</strong> gift support and also to the Classes <strong>of</strong>1940, 1943, 1944, 1955 and 1980 for their highnumber <strong>of</strong> donors.In closing, I wish to emphasize how muchyour donations to the 2004 and 2005 AnnualFunds to “top up” the annual bursary budget havebeen appreciated by the student recipients andtheir families. This coming term, 112 students[18% <strong>of</strong> the enrolment] received bursaries totaling$785,000. With tuition continuing to increaseunder our new governance, the need for bursarysupport will continue to be critical for the studentfamilies who wish to have their children benefitfrom the excellent educational experience thatUTS <strong>of</strong>fers – as alumni, you can well testify.We will be launching our <strong>2006</strong> Annual Fundcampaign this October with a direct mail program.The UTSAA Board hopes you will continue yourstrong support <strong>of</strong> this campaign. n UTSA Terrific New Opportunity to make a GiftGovernment Changes Capital Gains Treatment for Gifts <strong>of</strong> SecuritiesYou may wish to take advantage <strong>of</strong> the new taxtreatment [May <strong>2006</strong> federal budget] thateliminates capital gains tax on the donations<strong>of</strong> eligible securities to registered charities.By contributing securities directly to UTS,you can reduce the cost <strong>of</strong> the donation and gainnet tax savings.

Not to be denied, they scored the winninggoal with 1:17 left. Gone was the visionon an NHL-type possible shootout, whichwould have been made more interesting bythe fact that both goalies were students. Inthe end, the school team prevailed over thealumni, although it must be respectfullyreported that the school team was enhancedby the addition <strong>of</strong> two recent alumni!It was a great game, three 20-minute periodsand lots <strong>of</strong> end-to-end rushes. In the end,the alumni conceded that an extra forward lineand defense pair might have saved the day.Scoring for the alumni were John Crockett’84 with 3 goals, and Mike Martin ’84, RobWright ’72, Nick Evans ’84, Tim Sellers ’78,and Peter Czegledy ’82, each with one.The next alumni vs. the school game willhopefully be played in early December.
