Help Shape the Future of the UPEI Campus

The University has retained the services of Brook McIlroy Inc. to update the UPEI Campus Master Plan. A consultant team will be on campus to conduct consultations with a wide-range of UPEI stakeholders. Feedback is important and two Open Campus Sessions have been arranged to allow members of the University community an opportunity to provide input.  Discussions with the campus community will be structured around the following questions, although additional topics will likely arise during the discussion: What are the priorities in the physical development of the campus? What should be addressed first? Are there specific space needs or functions that the University should be providing? What issues can you identify on campus that hinder its effectiveness, or prevent the fulfillment of campus users' aspirations? What are your concerns? Attend the Open Campus Session on Tuesday, November 14, 1:30-2:15 pm in Room 113, SDU Main Buidling, or on Wednesday, November 15, 9:00-9:45 am Room 105, Health Sciences Building.

Sir William and Sir Andrew: The McGill Connection

In an upcoming talk to be presented at the Macphail Homestead in Orwell, Dr. James Moran will draw on a collection of correspondence between Macphail and Osler stretching between 1909 and 1919, examining the “McGill Connection” between two famous physicians who had more than just Montreal in common. Dr. Moran is a historian of medicine and mental health at UPEI. He is currently finishing a book called Madness on Trial: A Transatlantic History of English Civil Law and Lunacy. Like Sir Andrew Macphail, he loves Montreal, but prefers to live on Prince Edward Island. This is the annual Sir Andrew Macphail Memorial lecture, co-sponsored with the Prince Edward Island History of Medicine Society and held on Macphail’s birthday, November 24. Start time is 7:00 pm, preceded by a cash-bar reception at 6:30. Admission is by free-will donation.
