AllMaster Teachers are expected to be distinguishedresearchers—however, student evaluations, comments bycolleagues and a distinguished teaching portfoliodemonstrate that Dr. Thompson is also a bright flameamong teachers at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>.John not only teaches sociology, his teaching changeslives. A former undergraduate states eloquently,“Dr. Thompson taught me how to use my brain. He alsospent laborious hours teaching all <strong>of</strong> his students how towrite. In other classes, I was always very aware that I wasonly a farmer’s wife with not much <strong>of</strong> a future.Dr. Thompson showed me that I could use mysociological imagination plus stay in my homecommunity and work with rural people. I will work all <strong>of</strong>my life to emulate with my social work clients theteaching skill <strong>of</strong> Dr. Thompson.” A graduate studentnotes, “John Thompson has been the single mostimportant educator in my life—by far.I picked up his enthusiasm for learningand it has made me more confidentand a better person.” Another effuses,“the best evidence <strong>of</strong> the quality <strong>of</strong> apr<strong>of</strong>essor’s teaching is found in thelives <strong>of</strong> his students. The skills andconfidence I developed as a graduatestudent under John’s supervisionresulted in the incredible opportunitiesI have had since graduating. I am nowa faculty member at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong>Lethbridge because <strong>of</strong> the academicskills I developed under John’sleadership.”Most <strong>of</strong> his students remember “A LiveSociologist at Work—Writing an Essayin Class.” Using this technique,Dr. Thompson, with the students, writes an essay fromscratch on the blackboard, demonstrating and discussingthe painstaking processes <strong>of</strong> academic writing. It is apowerful and precarious teaching tool.Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Thompson has developed, in the words <strong>of</strong>STM President George Smith, “a virtual obsession forthe welfare <strong>of</strong> students.” He has shown himself to be asuperb teacher and an excellent emissary <strong>of</strong> hisdiscipline, touching everyone he encounters with hispassion for sociology and his absolute ardour for the craftand art <strong>of</strong> teaching. With the dedication he hasdisplayed and the legacy he is building, the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong><strong>Saskatchewan</strong> enjoys great good fortune having such afine teacher on its faculty.<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>82004 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong>

She was raised on a farmnear Elrose, where she attended elementary and highschool. Angela received a B.Sc. (Honours) in Physiologyin 1997 from the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>, followedby a Doctor <strong>of</strong> Philosophy in Obstetrics, Gynecology andReproductive Sciences in 2003.Angela’s thesis work characterized ovarian function inwomen during natural menstrual cycles. The mostexciting accomplishment <strong>of</strong> this study was the discoverythat follicles within the ovary develop at more than onetime during the menstrual cycle, a phenomenon neverbefore documented. The results <strong>of</strong> this study receivednational and international recognition and haveprovided a new model for studying ovarian function inwomen. It is anticipated that the knowledge <strong>of</strong> follicularwaves may change the way in which ovarian folliculardevelopment is stimulated in women undergoingtreatment for infertility. Angela’s work also included thestudy <strong>of</strong> women taking oral contraception. The results <strong>of</strong>her work have increased our understanding <strong>of</strong> thebiologic mechanisms underlying follicular growth inwomen, and provided insight into the mechanismsunderlying emergency contraception.Angela is currently pursuing postdoctoral work in theDivision <strong>of</strong> Reproductive Medicine at the Ottawa CivicHospital at the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> Ottawa.

History <strong>of</strong> the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> was established bythe <strong>University</strong> Act on April 3, 1907, only 18months after <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>. Theprovincial government requested all residents who weregraduates <strong>of</strong> a Canadian or British university to form thefirst <strong>Convocation</strong> and elect the <strong>University</strong>’s Senate. TheSenate, in turn, elected five members to the first Board<strong>of</strong> Governors, while the province appointed three. In1908, the Board selected Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Walter CharlesMurray, <strong>of</strong> Dalhousie <strong>University</strong>, as the first President.Classes in Arts and Science began in September, 1909,in downtown Saskatoon. Construction <strong>of</strong> the campusbegan in 1910 and the first buildings were occupied inthe fall <strong>of</strong> 1912. They included the College Building(Administration Building), <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> Hall(a student residence), residences for the Dean <strong>of</strong>Agriculture and the President, a laboratory forEngineering and a number <strong>of</strong> farm buildings.From the beginning, the <strong>University</strong> established anemphasis on research and teaching in a context <strong>of</strong>community service, and encouraged co-operation amongdepartments 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 fivepr<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 fivehealth-science colleges and a major teaching hospital onthe same campus. The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong>fers <strong>Spring</strong> &Summer Session, evening courses, Independent Studiescourses and distance education as well as on-campusdaytime courses.The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong> overlooks the South<strong>Saskatchewan</strong> River from a 755 hectare site. Thecampus itself is 147 hectares; a research park, the<strong>University</strong> farm and experimental plots make up theremainder.Most early buildings on campus are Collegiate Gothic instyle and are constructed in a local dolomite, popularlyknown as greystone. Subsequently constructed buildingsalso have greystone, as well as Tyndall stone (pre-cutslabs quarried in Tyndall, Manitoba), concrete, brick,glass and aggregate facings.The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong>fers many points <strong>of</strong> interest forvisitors: the Diefenbaker Canada Centre, Museum <strong>of</strong>Natural Sciences, Museum <strong>of</strong> Antiquities, BiologyMuseum, Pharmaceutical Museum, the Observatory, theGordon Snelgrove Gallery, the St. Thomas MoreGallery, Rugby Chapel, the Little Stone Schoolhouse,the Memorial Gates, Patterson Garden and theKenderdine Gallery.You are invited to visit our campus at any time!<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saskatchewan</strong>142004 <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>Convocation</strong>
