NEW HEADMASTER TAKES OFFICE Douglas Campbell, Shawnigan ' s ninth Head- master, arrived in mid-January to take over the reins of office. He found the School running well, unruffled by the setback of the infamous Lake ' s House flood, and immediately set about the task of getting to know as much as he possibly could about everything there was to know in as short a time as possible. Not an easy task but one which he clearly relished, tackled with gusto and we already can see the stamp of his personality and handiwork around the School in all kinds of small but subtle ways, the most obvious and successful of which is the switch to cafeteria style meals in the dining room. A quick thumbnail sketch reveals a man who is thirty-seven years old, a Canadian, born and brought up in Thetford Mines in the Eastern Townships where he went to High School. Thence to Bishop ' s University in Lennoxville where, more important than the B.Sc. he acquired, he met Donna whom he later married and took with him to Bishop ' s College School, also in Lennoxville, to his first teaching post. Biology Teacher, Sports Coach, Housemaster, Director of Admissions at B.C.S. were stepping stones to his first Headmastership at Rosseau Lake School in the Muskoka Lakes district in Ontario. After five years there he moved on to Lakeland College in Vermilion, Alberta, where he became the Director of Student Services. He had just got himself and the job into high gear there when the call came from Shawnigan, and here he is for, what everyone hopes will be, a lengthy stay. His wife, Donna, is a successful teacher in her own right, and enjoys teaching English and or French to Junior High students which she has done in Ontario, Quebec and Alberta. Born in Kingston she is now a converted Westerner, and in addition to ensuring that Doug gets to School on time in the morning is the mother of Tim, nearly twelve years old and Robyn, almost ten. Tim is enrolled for Grade Eight in September and Robyn, now in Grade Four, is hoping we ' ll go co-ed in time for her to attend the School too. We all welcome Doug and Donna and hope they will have happy and productive lives at the School, and succeed in their ambition in putting Shawnigan where it belongs - at the top. D.W. Hyde-Lay
