      and
     
     
      raised
      in

      PEl.
      He
      began
      his
      own
      educational
     
     
      career
      in
      a
      small
      two-room
      schoolhouse
      in
      Uigg,
     
     
      where
      he
      attended
      grades
      |
      through
      10.
      After
     
     
      successfully
      completing
      grade
      10,
      Prof.
      Campbell
     
     
      moved
      to
      Charlottetown
      to
      attend
      Prince
      of
      Wales
     
     
      College.
      There,
      he
      completed
      his
      high
      school
     
     
      education
      and
      began
      his
      college
      career,
      finishing
      his
     
     
      first
      two
      years
      of
      his
      undergraduate
      degree.
     
    

    
     
      Dr.
      Campbell
      decided
      to
      finish
      his
      bachelor
     
     
      of
      Arts
      degree
      in
      Toronto
      at
      Victoria
      College.
      He
     
     
      enjoyed
      his
      time
      there
      so
      much
      that
      he
      decided
      to
     
    
   
   
    
     
      4
      stay
      and
      obtain
      his
      masters
      degree
      in
      Psychology,
     
    
   
   
    
     
      this
      time
      at
      the
      University
      of
      Toronto.
     
     
      This
      proved
      to
      be
      a
      very
      wise
      decision
     
     
      indeed,
      for
      as
      fate
      would
      have
      it,
      not
      only
      did
      he
     
    
   
   
    
     
      receive
      an
      excellent
      education,
      he
      also
      met
      the
      girl
     
    
   
   
    
     
      of
      his
      dreams,
      his
      beautiful
      wife.
     
    

    
     
      Upon
      completing
      his
      masters
      degree
      in
     
     
      1957,
      Professor
      Campbell
      received
      a
      phone
      call
     
     
      from
      Frank
      McKenna
      of
      P.W.C.,asking
      himto
      come
     
     
      home

      old
      alma
      mater,
      Prince
      of
     
     
      Wales
      College.
      Prof.
      Campbell!
      could
      not
      have
      been
     
     
      more
      delighted.
      He
      had
      missed
      the
      beautiful
      island
     
     
      he
      called
      home
      and
      now
      he
      hada
      chance
      to
      return
     
     
      to
      it
      and
      begin
      a
      wonderful
      life
      with
      his
      new
      bride.
     
    

    
     
      And
      a
      wonderful
      life
      it
      has
      been!
      Prof.
     
     
      Campbell
      and
      his
      wife
      returned
      to
      Prince
      Edward
     
     
      Island
      and
      began
      a
      family.
      They
      had
      four
      beautiful
     
     
      children,
      a
      lovely
      home
      and
      a
      real
      quality
      of
      life.
     
    

    
     
      Prof.
      Campbell's
      professional
      life
      has
      been
     
     
      equally
      as
      successful
      as
      his
      personal
      life.
      He
      has
      held
     
     
      many
      prestigious
      offices
      and
      titles
      during
      his
      career
     
     
      at
      UPEI.
      He
      has
      served
      onthe
      university
      board,
      the
     
     
      senate,
      the
      tenure
      board
      and
      was
      appointed
      the
     
     
      Dean
      of
      Education.
      In
      this
      position
      he
      served
      for
     
     
      nine
      years,
      the
      maximum
      term.
     
    

    
     
      But
      it
      is
      not
      the
      various
      offices
      or
      titles
      that
     
     
      Campbell
      has
      held
      that
      his
      students
      and
      colleagues
     
     
      will
      remember
      most
      about
      him.
      It
      is
      his
      warmth,
     
     
      understanding
      and
      his
      genuine
      caring
      spirit
      that
      will
     
     
      forever
      remain
      his
      legacy.
     
    

    
     
      As
      a
      student
      of
      Dr.
      Campbell’s,
      |
      can
     
     
      personally
      say
      that
      |
      have
      learned
      a
      great
      deal
      about
     
     
      the
      importance
      of
      treating
      your
      students
      with
     
     
      respect
      and
      caring.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      These
      are
      the
      real
      gifts
      a
      teacher
      can
      give.
     
     
      If
      your
      students
      feel
      supported,
      respected
      and
     
     
      important
      to
      you
      they
      will
      be
      motivated
      to
      achieve
     
     
      and
      excel.
      Prof.
      Campbell
      is
      certainly
      a
      teacher
      who
     
     
      possesses
      all
      of
      these
      qualities.
     
    

    
     
      Prof.
      Campbell
      certainly
      has
      a
      busy
      future
     
     
      ahead
      of
      him.
      Some
      of
      his
      plans
      include
      travelling,
     
     
      woodworking,
      painting,
      reading
      and
      volunteer
     
     
      teaching
      at
      some
      local
      elementary
      school
      and
     
     
      working
      on
      his
      rather
      lengthy
      “honey-do”
      list
     
     
      (honey
      do
      this...honey
      do
      that...)
     
    

    
     
      But
      most
      importantly,
      he
      will
      spend
      some
     
     
      time
      with
      his
      five
      beautiful
      grandchildren.
     
    

    
     
      So
      much
      can
      be
      said
      abut
      this
      wonderful
     
     
      man,
      Roy
      Campbell,
      but
      |
      thought
      it
      only
      fitting
      to
     
     
      close
      his
      profile
      by
      giving
      him
      the
      floor.
     
    

    
     
      When
      |
      asked
      Dr.
      Campbell
      what
      his
     
     
      philosophy
      was
      this
      was
      his
      reply,
      “If
      you
      can
     
     
      interest
      children
      in
      their
      subject,
      that
      will
      carry
     
     
      them
      along.
      Don’t
      turn
      them
      off
      by
      too
      much
     
     
      content
      or
      precision.
      Tap
      into
      and
      build
      on
      that
     
     
      natural
      interest
      and
      energy.
      The
      rest
      will
      take
      care
     
     
      of
      itself.”
     
    

    
     
      From
      all
      of
      your
      students,
      thank
      you
      so
     
     
      much
      Prof.
      Campbell
      for
      giving
      us
      the
      gifts
      of
      your
     
     
      wisdom,
      your
      caring
      and
      your
      respect.
      We
      will

      The
      debating
      resumed
      on
      Saturday
      morning.
      All
     
     
      four
      teams
      had
      four
      rounds

      once
      all
      the
      rounds
      were
     
     
      complete.
      The
      final
      in
      public
     
     
      speaking
      included
      Edward
     
     
      Lank.
      His
      performance
     
     
      earned
      him
      fourth
      place.

      In
