september 28, 2016 – orillia, on

阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 is receiving more than $500,000 in funding from the social sciences and humanities research council (sshrc) to provide insight into some important issues facing canadians today.

researchers will be examining a number of diverse issues, including the study of domestic violence and community policing, aboriginal land use in northern communities, and how history has shaped canada – u.s. relations.

dr. angela hovey, an assistant professor with the school of social work in orillia is receiving a grant of $67,404 for a unique multidisciplinary project – domestic violence: new policing and community prevention – as part of an ongoing collaboration with the ontario provincial police (opp) and social service agencies. the team involves lakehead researchers from social work, criminology and women’s studies.

the research team will examine how police currently respond to a high volume of domestic violence calls and how a community-based preventative approach might be used to respond more effectively.

“we’re extremely pleased to receive the grant from sshrc, as the study will provide significant new contributions because of our partnership with the opp and the unprecedented access to police data on domestic violence,” said dr. hovey.

dr. frederico oliveira, assistant professor of anthropology, received $70,325 to study the importance of social structure and family relations on land use practices in the first nations communities of lac seul and slate falls in northwestern ontario.

“the need to develop a consistent investigation of the impact of external influences on first nations communities such as these, along with an understanding of the internal structure within the communities is critical,” said dr. oliveira.

dr. oliveira’s study will support negotiations with government and industry about natural resource development in ancestral lands, while contributing to meaningful discussions about indigenous sovereignty in canada.

dr. michael stevenson, associate professor of history and interdisciplinary studies, is receiving $54,478 for his project, building a cold war consensus: the eisenhower administration and canada-u.s. relations, 1953-1961.

the study will examine canada-u.s. relations during the presidency of dwight eisenhower and the leadership of canadian prime ministers louis st. laurent and john diefenbaker to explore the pattern of diplomatic stability that has determined the ‘special relationship’ between canada and the united states.

“the characteristic tolerant accommodation that defines canada-u.s. relations was developed during these years,” dr. stevenson commented. “this study will generate important new insights into a neglected area of canadian and american history and will help us understand the place of canada and the united states in the wider world.”

dr. andrew p. dean, vice-president, research and innovation, is extremely pleased by the high quality research in social sciences and humanities at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 .

“due to the hard work of our researchers, we are gaining an outstanding reputation for engaging research that is proving beneficial for people in canada and around the world,” dr. dean said.

february 2, 2016 – thunder bay, on

for three years, one of canada's most experienced backcountry travellers, james raffan, circumnavigated the globe at the arctic circle, producing an acclaimed new book called circling the midnight sun: culture and change in the invisible arctic. 

with sounds, images and stories from this grand expedition, his presentation about the journey has engaged audiences around the circumpolar world with deeply affecting stories of societies and landscapes in the throes of enormous change. 

called “compelling and utterly original,” this is both an adventure story and a talk that will affect and change your view of the north forever.  

the literary review of canada said raffan’s book is an “account that reveals the spirit of an adventurer, the intellect of a geographer, the curiosity of a journalist and the heart of a humanist. he brings these elements together in a way that is not only highly readable, but tailored for the suite of contradictory patterns, ethical conundrums and rapid change that is the modern arctic.” 

this free presentation is supported by the outdoor recreation 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 ’ society, the school of outdoor recreation, parks and tourism, and the faculty of social sciences and humanities – 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 .

september 1, 2016 – orillia, on

today, 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 announced the new william g. tamblyn legacy society and opened a new art gallery space at its university avenue campus.

community leaders and friends of the university gathered to learn about the new initiative and view the unveiling of the new sun art gallery, located in the alumni commons, simcoe hall.

the university’s legacy society was launched last fall at a special reception on the thunder bay campus where it was named in recognition of william g. tamblyn, the university’s founding president and vice-chancellor. the society is an honorary organization created to recognize and thank donors who make a financial commitment in their estate plan to support the university.

david tamblyn, incoming chair of the 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 board of governors and son of william g. tamblyn, spoke on behalf of the tamblyn family. “we are honoured to have the legacy society named in memory of my father, and we are all very proud of the long affiliation our family has had with the university,” said david tamblyn. “it is my sincere hope that the legacy society will become an integral part of the future of 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 , and the opening of this beautiful gallery today is a wonderful indication of this already happening here at the orillia campus.”

members of the tamblyn family are pictured (l-r): sarah hagman, david tamblyn, lukas hagman, dick hagman, sally hagman, anders hagman, and mugs tamblyn, with lakehead president & vice-chancellor dr. brian stevenson.

“we are proud to unveil this new gallery space that is named in honour of joy harvie maclaren, whose legacy gift supported its establishment, and makes her the inaugural member of the university’s legacy society supporting the orillia campus,” said 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 president and vice-chancellor dr. brian stevenson.

joy harvie maclaren, who died in 2014 at the age of 92, was a long-time supporter of lakehead orillia and the city of orillia, where her father was born.  she had a lifelong interest in promoting education, particularly for aboriginal youth. she was given the honorary title of “new sun” by the mohawk, ojibway, and blackfoot in recognition of her work for first nations communities across canada.

“joy was thrilled to learn that 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 would build a campus on the property that was, in part, the location of her family’s homestead,” said patricia harvie, cousin of maclaren. “she was passionate about education throughout her life, and she would have been so proud to have her name associated with this beautiful space.”

“joy was a great benefactor to lakehead orillia,” said orillia campus principal kim fedderson. “without her vision and support, the campus would not have grown from its modest beginnings to what it is today. with the generous support of the harvie family, joy established the harvie legacy library, located in our learning commons, as well as scholarships for aboriginal 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 attending lakehead orillia. now, joy’s legacy is not only helping us to provide a beautiful and valued study space for 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 , but is helping us to promote arts and culture in the community she was so fond of.”

patricia harvie, joy harvie maclaren's cousin, with her husband george garlock, accepts a photo memento from 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 president & vice-chancellor dr. brian stevenson.

the art gallery currently features works from the university’s michano collection of aboriginal art, including those of morrisseau, henry, and schilling, as well as artwork by audrey garwood, donated to the university by patricia harvie.

the new sun art gallery will be featured as part of the doors open orillia/culture days on september 30 (12 noon – 7 pm) when members of the public are encouraged to visit.
