P R E S I D E N T ’ S M E S S AG E This year we had the great pleasure of hosting Prince Charles on our Prince of Wales Campus. His Royal Highness toured the Centre for Applied Science and Technology (CAST), met instructors and students from the Architectural Technology, Energy Systems Engineering Technology, and Heritage Retrofit Carpentry programs, and learned more about our competency-based training. Prince of Wales College, our predecessor, was named during a visit in 1860 from the future King Edward VII, who was Prince of Wales at that time, so the visit from Prince Charles had a special significance for us. This year’s visit created an air of excitement in the community, as well. It was one of only a few walkabouts of His Royal Highness while he was on the Island. It was wonderful to see so many people gathered in the quadrangle in front of the CAST building to catch a glimpse of the prince. The excitement was palpable, and His Royal Highness graciously took time to stop and talk to groups of people as he walked around the campus. As I looked over the quadrangle filled with people from across the province, I thought of the significant role that Holland College plays in communities all over Prince Edward Island. Our campuses and centres are a vibrant part of the communities in which they are located. We serve students, provide employment for people and foster innovation and entrepreneurship across the province and beyond. It is our hope that we can continue to be a vital participant in our local, regional and national economies.
I would be remiss if I neglected to mention the generous support that we receive from donors, community volunteers, and members of the Holland College Board of Governors and Foundation Board of Directors. Their dedication, along with the leadership of College staff, has been invaluable throughout the year.
Warmest regards,
Brian McMillan, PhD President, Holland College 3

The Pump House is part of the Charlottetown Water Works, located at 55 Malpeque Road. The Charlottetown Water Works consists of the charming Island brick pumping station and an octagonal enclosed reservoir. The Water Works has the distinction of being the Island’s first
pumping station, as well as the only existing water works in the province from the late 19th Century. In the first stage of the project, the HRC students worked with Raeford Waite, owner of R.W. Woodworking of Hunter River, to restore all of the building’s windows. Under Waite’s guidance, the students produced exact copies of the original windows. The new windows provide not only a beautiful restorative look to the building, but they also drastically reduce the heating costs. As a gesture of appreciation for the students’ work, the City of Charlottetown established a $1,000 scholarship for the next three years to be awarded to deserving HRC students.
H O L L A N D CO L L E G E J O I N S H I G H E R E D P O I N T S P R O G R A M Holland College became a participating institution in the HigherEdPoints.com program. With this new partnership, students and their families can convert Aeroplan Miles into funds to pay tuition. Anyone can convert their miles and donate them to an individual student. Holland College president Brian McMillan
said the program gives people the opportunity to show their support for a student at the college. Donations are made in increments of $250. For every 35,000 Aeroplan Miles, a $250 credit is issued to a student named by the donor. Plans are also underway to enable donors to contribute to the Holland College Foundation.

CO M M E RC IA L D IV I N G G R A D UATE PA R T O F H I S TO R I C VI C TO R IA S TR A IT E XP E D ITI O N When Joe Boucher signed up for the Commercial Diving program at Holland College in 2008, it is unlikely that he thought that he would end up as an underwater archaeology technician on board a ship off the coast of Nunavut searching for two ships that disappeared almost 170 years ago. But that is exactly where he found himself, as part of the Victoria Strait Expedition to find the Franklin Expedition ships HMS Erebus and HMS Terror. His responsibilities include many of the more practical tasks underwater, but he can also be called upon to take measurements, make observations, and even excavate. He works with a technologist to maintain all of the team’s equipment, such as boats, trucks, and
dive equipment; assists with acquisitions; and provides logistical support on many projects. On the Victoria Strait Expedition, he was one of only four people present at the actual discovery, and one of the seven people who dove on the shipwreck to determine if it was HMS Terror. Joe wasn’t the only Holland College graduate to participate in the Victoria Strait Expedition. Captain David MacIsaac and his son Daniel, graduates of the Holland College Marine Training Centre, were also part of the expedition.

Students from the Graphic Design, Fundamental Arts, Photography and Digital Imaging, and Video Game Art and Animation programs displayed their work at the Confederation Centre Art Gallery 2014 Student Showcase. The exhibition, entitled Focus, demonstrated how the 40 participating students had changed their perspectives over their time at the college. The tagline for the exhibition is a quote from
psychologist Wayne Dyer, “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change,” which highlights the artistic growth of the students over the course of their studies. This is the sixth time that the Confederation Centre Art Gallery hosted the exhibition, and it’s an annual event that students, instructors and the art community look forward to each year.
CANADIAN COUNCIL OF TECHNICIANS AND TECHNOLOGISTS APPOINTS ALUMNUS TO CHAIR The Canadian Council of Technicians and Technologists recently appointed Holland College alumnus Bryan Burt, CET, as the Chair of the Canadian Technology Accreditation Board (CTAB) for a twoyear term. Burt is an experienced CTAB evaluator, and in April of 2014 was part of the CTAB accreditation team that visited the College of the North Atlantic in Doha, Qatar.
He graduated from Holland College’s Computer Engineering Technology and Information Systems Technology programs in the early 1990s, and works with the Network Operations Group (IT Shared Services) with the Province of Prince Edward Island. Holland College currently offers programs in Computer Informations Systems and Computer Networking Technology. These programs, and most of the college’s Applied Sciences and Engineering programs, are accredited by CTAB. CTAB accredited programs provide International Mobility Rights under the International Engineering Alliance (IEA) through the Dublin and Sydney Accords. 7

H O L L A N D CO L L E G E S TA F F D O N AT E COAT S FO R S T U D E N T S Holland College staff across the province participated in a college-wide campaign to provide winter clothing free of charge to students in need and their families. The campaign was spearheaded by Tricia Thompson and Eryn Callin, who work in the college’s Student Support Services department. The two noticed that the number of students who weren’t properly dressed for the weather had increased, and it wasn’t because they were making a fashion statement. Callin said they see students wearing three or four hoodies in an attempt to keep warm. “We know that many of our students struggle to make ends meet. Some of them don’t have enough money for food, let alone to buy a coat,” she said. “It’s pretty hard to do well in school when your basic needs for food and warmth aren’t being met.”
Thompson sent an email announcing the One Warm Coat campaign. She said that almost instantly she received replies from college staff all over the Island. “We had a phenomenal response. One staff member said that she is a knitting fanatic and asked if we would accept mittens. Another called asking if we had a need for boots. Initially we were going to pilot the project here at the Prince of Wales Campus, but as soon as I sent the message out, staff from other campuses contacted us asking to join in.” What started as a modest idea became a collegewide effort to make sure that all students, and their families, had warm winter clothing.
I N S T R U C T I O N A L D E V E LO P M E N T The Office of Instructional Development manages the Certificate of Adult Education (CAE) program and provides support for educational training as it relates to teaching and learning at Holland College. This year, 85 students were registered in the CAE program, 30 of whom came from external industries. In the fall of 2014, 25 students graduated with their CAE. A cross-section of Holland College employees is involved in the program, including full- and part-time instructors, lab assistants and administrative staff. Several workshops and one-on-one sessions were provided to faculty throughout the year to assist in adapting to the changing student demographic. 13

FO U N DAT I O N More than $340,000 was awarded in student financial aid during 2014−15, and 10 new scholarships, bursaries, and awards were established through the Holland College Foundation this year. Three Holland College alumni were honoured with Distinguished Alumni Awards for 2015: Chief Delaney Chisholm, Police Technology 1973, Chief of Police, New Glasgow Police Service; Norma Lee MacLeod, Journalism 1982, Producer & Host, CBC Radio One’s “Maritime Noon”; and Susan LeFort, Welding 1985, Business Development Officer, Aerospace & Defense, Innovation PEI.
The 14th Annual Holland College Golf Classic took place in September at Belvedere Golf and Country Club. Honourary Co-Chairs were Jamie Hill, Ed Babineau, and Blair MacLauchlan. The event raised just over $40,000 for varsity sports, student aid, and alumni initiatives.
Thanks to the generosity of donor Lou MacEachern, students had the opportunity to be nominated by faculty and staff to Earn a Car during the school year. Nominations were based on merit, character, and academic achievement, with a 2015 Nissan Micra and four awards of $1,000 cash up for grabs. Mr. MacEachern’s goal was to motivate students to work towards their personal and academic best. More than 60 students earned nominations. The car and cash prizes were awarded in the spring of 2015. Donations continued to come in for the establishment of a performance hall at the Prince of Wales Campus this year, exceeding the $1.3 million private sector goal. Planning also commenced for a significant fundraising campaign to revitalize the teaching and learning space at The Culinary Institute of Canada. The Fall 2014 issue of Benchmark, the Holland College Foundation magazine, featured the royal visit as its cover story, and was distributed to a readership of approximately 20,000. Fundraising for the year also included a number of gifts-in-kind, including three vehicles to be used as training aids in the classroom for Automotive Technology students: a 2012 Honda Civic from Honda Canada, and a 2014 Infinity Q50 and a 2011 Juke from the Nissan Canada Foundation. 17

She has been teaching at Bluefield for 20 years, directing the concert bands, jazz band, and show band. In addition to teaching at Bluefield, Christine has adjudicated wind band festivals in Newfoundland and directed the Nova Scotia Junior Wind Ensemble. She has studied wind band conducting with Dr. Gerry King, Dr. Karem Simon, Dr. Mallory Thompson, and Dr. Dale Lonis. She has also played trumpet in the UPEI Wind Symphony.

The event started with a performance by the Holland College Welshmen Community Band. The band played favourites from the ’50s and ’60s. The afternoon gave Prince of Wales alumni a chance to mingle with former classmates and the opportunity to tour the Prince of Wales Campus. 18
“The student association wanted to do something to help a local family for the holiday season,” said first-year Welding student Dylynn Barbour. The Student Association presented the money to the Georgetown Baptist Church. Rev. Gary Harris, minister of the church, thanked the students. “Through this giving from the students at Georgetown Centre, a local family will receive an unexpected gift for Christmas,” he said. Lornie Hughes, program manager of the Georgetown Centre, said the community of Georgetown plays an important part in the lives of the 115 students who attend programs there.
