President ' s Message It has been a priviledge and a tremendous honour to serve as President to the most active campus student body. When times got tough, which was often, it was comforting to note that I have been given the opportunity to do for those that I truly believe in, you, the un- dergraduate engineers at the University of Toronto. This year was an active one for the Engineering Society. Probably, the most active in recent memory. This thanks to a first class executive and concerned, reliable class represen- tatives. The Engineering Society expanded into new areas including academics with the formation of the Academic Affairs Committee. The atmosphere prevelant in our new offices was one filled with creativity, sparked by innovation. This year we witnessed a new format for the Cannon. Under the editorship of Lee Scott, the Cannon proved to be an excellent source of professionally related articles and Engineering Society news. Our pubs this year were executed with great competence under the guidance of our Vice President • Activities, Peter Weick. Vince Volpe, our Vice President • Administration did a superb job in maintaining the efficient operations of the Engineering Society and the Engineering Stores. the Engineering Society took a different approach in its relations with other student organizations on campus. Engineering received the best coverage in years The Varsity. This same approach proved helpful in our affairs with the Student Administrative Council and other student societies. Still there are many challenges left to tackle. For those of us who are graduating, we are most fortunate. We no carry the wisdom and knowledge that only an excellent academic institution like U of T can provide. I sincerely hope that the present economic problems will subside thus allowing this year’s graduating class to practive what they have learned. We can, however, be proud University of Toronto Engineers. To those that remain, I wish you the best of luck. Keep Skule a wonderful place, and hold your heads up high. To all, seize the many opportunities that are open and that will open in the furture. Today more so then ever, engineers have a lot to offer.

Dean’s Message When you reopen this yearbook in 10, 20 or 50 years, the problems that seemed so formidable as you approached graduation will have long been solved, and replaced by others no less challenging. Many of the technologies that you struggled so hard to master will have been superceded by later deelopments. The world in which you practice your engineering profession will probably be far dif- ferent from your expectation as an undergraduate. What will remain much the same will be the attitudes which you have developed during these four sometimes-hectic years, the approaches to problems, the habits of organization, the personal discipline of hard and concen- trated effort. If the history of previous graduates is any guide, these continuing at- tributes will make and keep you effective in the many diverse ways in which you will serve society. for graduates in engineering, every age is potentially golden. Historically, engineers have led as designers of change in society, and, as long as change is needed, you can be reasonably assured of opportunity. Your class has been outstanding in its support for high quality in your engineering education, as evidenced by your action on incidental fees. Through the years to come, your Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering will continue to strive for quality, and will need your on-going support. May the successive stages in your career be challenging, productive and satisfying. Gordon R. Slemon Dean 5
