To Students, Friends and Colleagues of the late D. Frank Sigsworth:

As the following memoran— dum will indicate, the De— partment of Political Sci— ence wishes to honour the memory of Mr. D. Frank Sigsworth who was a Sessi— onal Lecturer in Political Science. Frank taught”for three years at UPEI and was well received by many students and faculty. He was a fine tacher whose extraordinary knowledge

GRAND OPENING 4th floor main

The fourth floor of the Main Building was officia— ly re-opened on Friday, Nov. 9, after its conver- sion from men's residence to faculty offices. In a brief but moving ceremony, the poet—laureate of 414, 'Terry Pratt, 30, recited a especially-commissioned ode to the bare lightbulbs, & Karen White, 22, the long— est surviving secretary on the floor, smashed the wh— ite toilet paper ribbon with a’telephone book.

Afterwards, the apprecia— tive gathering of well— wishers, many of whom sig- ned the attractive guest book, toured the floor's many facilities. The uni— sex shower room excited much admiration, as did the revolutionary open sp— ace, lockless washroom pl— an. The tour also included the sauna baths, the cold storage areas, the suprem— ely non—functional thirteen pillars and the wheel—chair

ramp, thoughtfully provid— ed at the east end of the corridor.

Faculty and staff members were on hand to welcome guests. Professors Andrew Robb, 30, and Timothy O'Neill, 26, explained th- at by doing without tele- phones, they and their colleagues, as well as se- cretary Evelyn McMurrer, were helping to ease the energy crises;

Comments of those attend-

ing the ceremony revealed strong reactions to the amenities of the former residence. "stunningly pr- imitive", "unbelievable" and "It gets me right in the pit of the stomach" ‘were representative of th- ese.

The new area will be open‘

public daily until at leae st 1984. Visitors with he— art conditions or weak knees are advised to phone for assistance.

of law and strong committ- ment to justice won him

.the admiration of all tho-

se who were in a position

to study under him. We feel that the appropriate

way to show the respect & affection which we felt for him would be to found a memorial scholarship the terms of which would re- flect his own values and interests. We think the , terms of this scholarship do so faithfully.

If you feel as we do, th— at thiS‘scholarship is a suitable testament to his memory, we would be happy to receive any contribu— tions which you might want to make towards this. Any contributions would, of course, be tax deductible. The monies will then be given over to the Univers— ity to establish a fund from which annual scholar- ship awards will be drawn. Cheques should be made pa- yable to the Frank Sigs— worth Memorial Scholarship Fund and sent to the Univ— ersity of Prince Edward Island, Business Office. We hope that you will be able to give this proposal your warm support.
