The Root - Fall 2018

A ROOM OF THEIR OWN

In 1973, the First Girls of UTS transformed the school. 45 years later, their impact is still being felt.

Moments to Remember

As I’m sure is the case for most of us, my thoughts invariably turn back to my school days when the seasons change over from summer to fall. And when I think of my school days, there are a few moments that always come to mind, moments filled with personal meaning that also define UTS as an institution and a community.

One indelible moment for me was on my very first day at UTS. I remember walking up the big steps at the Bloor Street entrance and walking through the front doors, not knowing what, exactly, to expect.

What greeted me was a huge crowd of students, all apparently far older than me, all apparently familiar to one another and engaged in an unruly mix of excitement, anxious energy and noise. In the midst of all that, however, I managed to find a few other newbies. Together, we took our first steps as UTS students and began the lifelong friendships I still cherish today.

This was a defining moment for me personally, since it epitomized so much of what the next six years would be: the excitement and energy of youth, the need to connect with and learn about a larger world, and doing it all with the support of friends and the UTS community as a whole. At the same time, this moment goes a long way towards explaining what UTS is about: a close-knit community that rallies together to rise to any challenge. This distinctive spirit is once again shining through during the defining moment in which UTS currently finds itself. The temporary move to 30 Humbert, while the historic rejuvenation of 371 Bloor takes place, is a challenge that has no parallel in Toronto’s independent school community. And yet, in true UTS style, the school’s students, staff and alumni have made the experience not only near seamless, but positive.

I can’t think of many century-old institutions that would approach such a major change with the energy, enthusiasm, sense of adventure and sense of community with which I’ve seen UTS approach the temporary move to Humbert Street. That, to me, captures the essence of UTS as an institution.

Jim Fleck C.C. ’49, P ’72 Board Chair, UTS

When UTS held its “Bon Voyage, 371 Bloor” event in June, I was unable to attend due to an out-of-province commitment. I was disappointed not to be able to join the hundreds of alumni, students, parents, and current and former staff who gathered to say a final goodbye to the school as we’ve known it for 108 years. But it eased my mind to know that this farewell, like all the UTS farewells I’ve experienced, is only temporary.

I fi rst walked into 371 Bloor Street West in 1944, and the building had already seen several generations roam its halls. It wasn’t new, even then, but it was our second home, a place where we received an outstanding education, tested our athletic skills, and developed character. By the time I first said goodbye to UTS in 1949, the school had prepared me to meet life’s challenges.

T hat first farewell lasted about 20 years, until my son became a UTS student. So much had changed about the city, the country, and the world, but when it came to the building itself, it was much the same as I’d left it.

T he next goodbye wasn’t permanent, either. As Board Chair and Chair of the Building the Future campaign, I am fortunate to still participate in the life of the school, and when I talk to alumni of any vintage, they say the school seems like it hasn’t changed. And I say, “That’s because it hasn’t.” 371 Bloor Street West is essentially the same school I walked into in 1944, the same building that opened its doors in 1910.

T hat rich history makes it difficult to say goodbye. It’s also the reason we need to say goodbye, just for a while. The revitalization of UTS is long overdue, but it is happening now. As someone who benefited from the education UTS provided, I feel a need to give back. I would like to thank those who have already given, and for those who haven’t yet, I hope you share my feeling as we work towards our $60 million goal.

T his wonderful school has a way of making sure farewells are only temporary. So instead of goodbye, let’s simply say bon voyage to 371 Bloor. When we see it again, it’ll be better than ever.

In 1973, University of Toronto Schools transformed from an all-male environment to a co-educational school. This was the most significant transformation in the history of UTS.

T he original vision for UTS included three schools—a boys’ school, a girls’ school, and a technical school. In 1910, as a result of a funding shortfall, the Ontario government and the University of Toronto were only able to go ahead with the boys’ school, a decision that clearly reflected the gender bias of the time. A letter to the Chancellor of the University from medical pioneer Helen MacMurchy decried the fact that Ontario teachers would be trained in an institution without female students.

I n the early 1970s, a confluence of developments opened the doors of UTS to girls. An open-minded and progressive principal, Don Gutteridge, was appointed, and societal trends raised questions about UTS as a boys-only school that attracted an exclusive student population while affiliated with a public university.

Today, the debate regarding co-education continues. A study published in the journal Science in 2011 concluded that “There is no well-designed research showing that single-sex education improves students’ academic performance, but there is evidence that sex segregation increases gender stereotyping and legitimizes institutional sexism.” In addition, a study published in 2014 in the Psychological Bulletin concluded that, “there is little evidence of an advantage of single-sex schooling for girls or boys for any [significant] outcomes.”

Plato, one of the first philosophers to reflect deeply on education, argued that coeducation encourages “a feeling of comradeship.” By working and playing together, UTS students develop mutual respect and a keen understanding of gender diversity.

At UTS, we continually review our performance related to gender equity to ensure that we can address any areas that may reflect gender bias. We monitor the gender balance in all courses and in aspects of our co-curricular program. We support student inquiry into gender bias and welcome recommendations from these studies. Co-education demands commitment to equity and inclusion – a key pillar of our strategic plan.

PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

LEGACY BUILDING

The theme of legacy is looming large at UTS these days. A read through this issue of The Root brings home the message of the legacy left by those who fought for our freedom and those who were pioneers for co education. Indeed, we have all benefited from the actions of those who have gone before us.

This past summer, I visited the Juno Beach Centre in Courseullessur-Mer, Normandy, France. How exciting to find the two plaques on Kiosk 8 from UTS and the UTSAA, which pay tribute to our alumni who served Canada so that we may enjoy the privilege of freedom today. As I stood gazing at the plaques, I thought about Don Kerr ’39, who fought in D-Day as part of the Signals Corps—a UTS tradition—and was instrumental in the creation of this facility. Don told me about his experience at UTS in the 1930s, during which both “brains and brawn” were the focus of the UTS educational experience. While he claimed that the “brawn” part was preparation for war, today we would celebrate the attention that UTS pays to physical education as well as to educating the mind.

We are at a watershed moment in the life of the school. Together, we are creating a legacy for future generations of UTS students. You will see in the report on donors that 1,628 of us have donated to the Building the Future campaign. Our donations are for so much more than fixing up our beloved UTS. They are a vote for renewed affiliation with the University of Toronto and acknowledgment that there is no better school than UTS for an unparalleled educational experience that sets up students for success in life.

Thank you to all of you who have offered your generous support to create a legacy to preserve and enhance UTS for the future. As sure as our forebears have done for us, it is our turn to step up to secure the future for generations to come.

Martha Drake Executive Director, Advancement

IN SCHOOL

In late May, the best Reach for the Top teams in the country convened in the John and Margaret Withrow Hall (UTS Auditorium) to determine Canada’s fastest brains and buzzer-hands. The UTS team delivered an excellent effort on their home turf, capturing the national championship for the fifth time in the school’s history and the first since 2013.

UTS students put themselves, and the school, at the forefront of efforts to increase opportunities for women in STEM fields by staging the inaugural Girls In Technology Conference (GITcon) in April. Organized by Katherine Gotovsky '18 , Audrey Ho '18 and Mirjana Mijalkovic '18 , current S6 (Grade 12) student Alice Vlasov and science teacher Jenny Pitt-Lainsbury, the event brought dozens of Grade 6-8 students from across the city to UTS to participate in workshops on robotics, coding, game design and more. Attendees were also inspired by a moving speech from Laura Money ’88 , a successful technology executive at CIBC. GITcon was the first-ever student-run conference of its kind in Toronto and a sign of UTS students’ determination to break down gender barriers in STEM.

As UTS prepared to move to its temporary location, students and staff addressed the challenge of making 30 Humbert Street feel more like home. Working with Charlie Pullen, department coordinator, visual arts, last year’s S5 (Grade 11) art students decided to create installations for the building in which they are now spending their final year at UTS. Utilizing a mix of media that included 3-D printing, laser-cutting and screen printing, our young artists created several pieces which add a distinctive UTS presence and personality to 30 Humbert.

The Year-Long Project on Truth and Reconciliation provided F1 (Grade 7) students the opportunity to explore the history and culture of Canada’s Indigenous peoples, as well as their own roles in the ongoing Truth and Reconciliation process. Activities in the 2017-18 academic year included a blanket exercise, documentary film screenings and workshops hosted by the Indigenize Our Minds Education Outreach program. In June, the project culminated with remarkable spoken word and dance performances from students, as well as a pow wow hosted by the Native Canadian Centre of Toronto.

UTS student-athletes turned in exceptional performances at Ontario Federation of Student Athletic Associations (OFSAA) championships in several sports this spring. Of particular note were the results of Pau Illerbaig-Bajong (M3/Grade 9) and Sam Ford (S5/Grade 11) on the track. Pau won gold medals in both the 800m and 1500m races, while Sam collected a bronze medal in the 1500m and finished fourth in the 3000m event.

The Class of 2018 joined families, friends and UTS staff at Desautels Hall in the Rotman School of Management for Graduation and Prize Giving in June. The celebration marked a pivotal moment in the school’s history; as the final cohort to graduate before the revitalization of the school building at 371 Bloor Street West, the Class of 2018 brought the curtain down on the first 108 years of UTS. A shared sentiment united the graduates and members of the broader UTS community: fond feelings about the time spent at 371 Bloor combined with excitement about the possibilities of the future.

A ROOM THEIR OWN

L-R: Katherine Gotovsky '18, Audrey Ho '18, keynote speaker Haidee Thanda, Jenny Pitt-Lainsbury, Mirjana Mijalkovic '18 and S6 student Alice Vlasov at the Girls in Tech conference.

When UTS opened its doors to 325 boys in 1910, the University of Toronto had only been allowing women to register in classes for about 25 years. For a brief and awkward time beforehand, women had enrolled at U of T without being granted the right to attend classes or even hold the scholarships they earned – which existed to support attendance in classes. In this strange catch-22 world, women could be recognized for their intellectual prowess within a university setting yet be barred from exercising it in lectures and seminars. So it comes as no surprise that, while UTS was originally intended to offer coeducation, boys took precedence over girls when a shortfall of funding limited the scope of the school. It was a man’s world, after all, with women still seeking a room of their own.

Fast forward to April 2018, when UTS hosted the Girls in Tech conference (GITcon) conference for about one hundred Grade 6 through 8 students around the GTA. Organized by Katherine

Gotovsky ’18 , Audrey Ho ’18 and Mirjana Mijalkovic ’18 , and current S6 (Grade 12) student Alice Vlasov, under the guidance of Department Coordinator of Science and chemistry teacher Jenny Pitt-Lainsbury, the event provided an opportunity for girls to attend technology workshops and sharpen their programming skills. The existence of the conference tells us that girls are still fighting to achieve equality in the STEM fields, and particularly in computer science. Statistics Canada confirms that only 30% of graduates from university computer science programs are women. But the conference also illustrates the magnitude of change that UTS has undergone in its lifetime.

Between 1910 and 2018, the world experienced countless political and cultural upheavals. But at UTS, one transformation stands out above all others. The arrival of the First Girls in 1973 forever altered the nature of teaching and learning at the school and the character of the students who have attended it.

When the First Girls established their place at UTS, they initiated a cultural transformation that changed the school forever.

Former Principal Don Gutteridge, who ushered in the transition to co-education after teaching at UTS for 10 years, felt strongly about having both boys and girls in the school: “Classes change when you bring together different ways of thinking and points of view. They’re better. The discussions and debates are richer. To my mind, there just isn’t a good argument against diversity. UTS became a more sophisticated place with the arrival of the girls.”

Monica Biringer ’78 was one of those First Girls whose presence left an impact on the school. “When I arrived in 1973, I felt I had been granted full licence to pursue my intellectual curiosity. UTS is a place where excitement about learning is endorsed and encouraged. That was really freeing for me and for the other girls. Looking back, I know we brought a different, complementary approach to learning. We added another point of view to the dialogue. Every student was encouraged to contribute, and the girls used their voices. That allowed us to develop confidence that made us comfortable speaking up, later on, in other co-ed environments like university and our workplaces.”

Now a partner and Co-Chair of Osler’s National Tax Group, Monica describes her career as “a long story that started at UTS. In my last year, I took three English courses and three math courses. Not your typical course selection! But I was deeply interested in both, largely because of fantastic teachers in those subject areas. I then became an English major at Queen’s who took a lot of math courses. I attended law school and chose to pursue a career in tax law, which combines my interest in English language and math. Looking back, the foundation for my current practice was laid at UTS.”

A rriving a few years later, Laura Money ’81 was another First Girl who took a STEM-oriented

career path. Now Senior Vice-President, Strategic Initiatives in the Retail and Business Banking branch of CIBC, as well as the UTS Alumni Association Vice President (and a featured speaker at the Girls in Tech conference), it never crossed Laura’s mind while in high school that girls were not good at math or science.

“ We all had different interests when it came to subjects,” she explains. “But they were personal preferences, not gender differences. It wasn’t until I arrived at U of T to study engineering that I learned about a bias against women in some fields. In my first two years in engineering and science, 13% of students were women. Professors were not as respectful toward female students. They didn’t voice the message I heard at UTS, which was, ‘You can have any career you want.’ I believed it, which is how I ended up in engineering.”

L aura's daughter Kiara is currently an M3 (Grade 9) student at UTS. When the two compare their generational experiences, they see one big difference.

“I didn’t have female mentors in the courses I loved the most,” says Laura. “I had great female teachers, but only men in math and science. Those men made sure the girls were as engaged and supported as the boys, and I have wonderful memories of those classes. But Kiara has role models across the entire school in every subject. She honestly doesn’t experience any difference in the disciplines. And she can see the intellectual capacity and achievement of the women right in front of her. It’s a great advantage and an important development of the school.”

A long with the First Girls, the first female faculty arrived in 1973, teaching only English, Geography and Physical Education. Today, Jenny Pitt-Lainsbury is one of many female role

models in math and science that Kiara sees every day. Jenny has been an instructional leader, F1 (Grade 7) Science and AP Chemistry teacher, and Department Coordinator for Science. Now, beginning in the 2018-2019 academic year, she is Head of Student Support and Student Innovation. As such, Jenny tackles some of the big issues in education, such as the role of girls in STEM fields.

“There are still barriers to women working in the maths and sciences,” she says. “Women are 50% of the population but about 25% of all the STEM fields combined. And the pipeline is problematic. When I came to UTS in 2004, there were no female physics or chemistry teachers. Girls were as capable in my chemistry classes as boys, but none had ever been on our Chemistry Olympiad team – or any Olympiad team. Now, we have more women than men in the science department and girls have been on Olympiad teams since 2009. Research tells us that it’s at about age 15 when girls are likely to buy into the STEM fields. Step one is seeing themselves represented in those areas in their immediate environment.”

“But there are many other steps,” Jenny adds. “We want more girls to participate in the Olympiads. We want girls to see themselves in every field. The Girls in Tech conference was a great step forward, but computer science continues to be very male-dominated. Girls need more mentorship, more female experts in their line of vision, more clubs where they feel they belong.”

Students and staff are taking up this challenge. UTS has hosted Hackergal hackathon events, and S5 (Grade 11) student Anjalee Narenthiren founded the female-focused TechExplore club with the help of staff member Vernon Kee, which has now expanded to include other GTA schools. Meanwhile, other students have enlisted Andrew Masse and other members of the IT team to support various intiatives. “As UTS continues to fulfill its strategic goals of equity and inclusion,” Jenny says, “girls will reach further and wider than ever before.”

With her son Jacob now in M3 (Grade 9) at UTS, Tina Bates ’88 agrees that equity and inclusion should be a priority in education. “By the time I arrived in the 1980s, UTS felt like a seamless environment to me, as if it had always been co-ed. The First Girls laid that foundation. It was also a much more diverse community than my grade school and a very accepting and integrated place. When Jacob came to UTS from a boys’ school,

his eyes really opened. He now has friends from all over the city of different backgrounds. And, of course, he’s learning alongside girls. The fact that half his teachers are women doesn’t strike him as worth remarking. Math and science? Of course. It’s just natural. I know Jacob will feel as I did when he graduates: prepared and empowered to thrive in a co-ed world.”

Today, UTS is more diverse than it has ever been, and the arrival of the First Girls stands as a milestone on the path toward greater equity and inclusion. Monica Biringer, who is co-chair of the Building the Future campaign and a leader of the First Girls Initiative [see sidebar], sees the next step for UTS.

“This is how I think about it,” she says. “Phase one in the transformation of the school was the introduction of girls. Phase two was achieving a much more culturally and racially diverse student body. Phase three is underway now, with an ambitious building project. Throughout these phases, UTS has maintained a great bursary program to ensure socio-economic diversity. UTS started as a school where financial means was not a barrier, and it continues to believe in that ideal. Is there a better place to learn than a fully diverse and inclusive school with an exceptional commitment to learning and innovation? I don’t think so.” n

FIRST GIRLS INITIATIVE

As First Girls who arrived at UTS in 1973, Building the Future campaign co-chair Monica Biringer ’78 and former Alumni Association and UTS board member Susy Opler ’79 saw a unique way for their pioneering cohort to support the school. “This school changed our lives,” says Monica. “And we both believe strongly in securing its current location in a renewed facility, which is the focus of the campaign.”

The two set out to enlist their fellow First Girls to become donors to the school in honour of both the historic moment they ushered in and an exciting future that is currently under construction.

“Our alumni mix is not yet 50/50 men and women,” adds Monica. “And there is still a gender divide when it comes to giving potential. But we know that our group of incredible alumnae can make a difference.”

To date, the First Girls Initiative has raised over $300,000 for the Building the Future campaign.

This past June , Ray Kinoshita ’70 spoke at a memorial service for his classmate and close friend, Doug Carter ’70, who had died a month earlier in a cycling accident. Reading from an email Doug sent him on September 8, 2015, Ray explained Doug’s catalytic role in a Class of 1970 45th reunion initiative, dubbed “UTS-70,” to sponsor a Syrian refugee family. As he did, Ray brought a remarkable two-and-a-half-year story to a close.

Five days before Doug’s email, photos of threeyear-old Alan Kurdi’s body lying on a Turkish beach became a flashpoint for public sentiment about Syrian refugees. The crisis would become a central issue in the Canadian federal election, which saw Justin Trudeau’s Liberals sweep to

power in part on the strength of their commitment to resettle 25,000 refugees from Syria.

In his 2015 email, Doug harked back to a turning point in Canadian immigration policy marked by a dramatic shift in public sentiment and the unique private sponsorship provisions enacted by the first Trudeau Prime Minister: “I understand there are a number of institutional obstacles to even accepting/processing more refugees into Canada, but hopefully the more support there is (financial and otherwise) from the population, the more likely it is that a way can be found to overcome those obstacles (as in e.g. the Vietnamese “boat people” crisis of 1979–80).”

Doug’s reference was more than political.

“I think what really pushed Doug to join the Syrian effort was that his family had been very involved in 1979 with supporting a Vietnamese refugee family,” says Ray. “Throughout his life,

NOTE: for reasons of privacy and confidentiality, the names and details of the Syrian family in this story have been obscured.

Open Arms

Doug had a very close relationship with that family, and I think he took it for granted that this was the Canadian thing to do.”

Ray, who immediately agreed to help because “it’s the kind of thing we ought to do as citizens,” also had personal reasons. His grandparents had emigrated from Japan in 1921, his mother’s family had been interned during World War II, and his parents had moved to Toronto from the Okanagan Valley soon after they were married.

When Ray broadcast Doug’s suggestion, three people immediately offered to help: David Decker ’70, Heather Mackay, wife of Doug Mackay ’70, and Bruce Stodart ’70. Other classmates, many of whom were already involved in sponsoring refugees, offered financial support. The project was underway.

That this group was among the thousands of Canadians who stepped up was no surprise to

David. “I think UTS tends to shape people who are disposed to get behind something like this,” he says. “We also came of age in the late ’60s, so there was a political awareness from the start.”

Through a referral from Shin Imai ’69, Ray connected UTS-70 with Humanity First, an NGO that facilitates refugee resettlement. Having raised $9,000, the group was well short of the $30,000-plus threshold required to sponsor a family, so Doug contacted UTS Executive Director, Advancement Martha Drake to explore a potential partnership with another class. The call came just as student-organizers of the 2016 UTS Charity Week (UCW) were choosing a cause to support.

Martha connected the UTS-70 group with the UCW student organizers, and a multigenerational, global initiative was born. The alumni-student partnership so fully reflected

UTS’ commitment to developing socially responsible global citizens that Principal Rosemary Evans glowingly shared her excitement in a student video promoting the event.

Held in mid-February 2016, UCW raised $6,000 through fundraising activities like a multicultural lunch, good-natured dares (Frosted tips! Clothing swaps!), and a silent auction. The event also featured an assembly at which Heather, Bruce, and Ray spoke. In his remarks, Bruce reminded the crowd about the evolution of Canadian immigration policy in the 20th century, congratulated the students for doing their part like the alumni before them, and noted: "This is the moment when your generation will be tested, your opportunity to define once again what it means to be Canadian."

A s a retired teacher, Bruce noticed an evident culture of empowerment in the school. “I got the sense there was a commitment to social justice being inculcated in the students,” he says. “There was a democratic feeling to how the event was run, and the project seemed to flow from a shared moral compass.”

I n the months that followed, Humanity First helped the UTS-70 team reach the financial threshold by combining resources with a group called Polo for Syria. At that point, it was just a question of whether they could commit the time and energy required. Typically, groups have 20 or more members who share the load. UTS-70 had five members, Polo for Syria had two, and Doug was living in British Columbia.

Undaunted, they forged ahead.

I n late 2016, news came that they would be sponsoring a husband and wife with four daughters under the age of 10 and a baby on the way. The family had been living in a UN refugee camp in Jordan for four years since fleeing Syria after the children’s paternal grandfather was kidnapped and killed. The conditions were a challenge: they lived in a canvas tent, they were not allowed to work and, as Ahmadiyya Muslims, they were often treated badly.

I n March of 2017, Doug and Ray travelled to Pearson International Airport with a group to greet the family. Despite the complications of travel, immigration, and language differences, the first meeting was full of smiles, handshakes, and emotional significance.

“I have always thought about what it took for my grandparents to come to Canada with $100 in their pockets and not speaking the language,” says Ray. “So it was quite something to meet this entire family and try to imagine what they had been through.”

From that night onward, the UTS-70 group stayed actively involved. At first, they contributed furniture to a Mississauga apartment that had been rented for the family. Then, with Heather and Bruce leading the way, the group helped with everything from doctor’s appointments to haircuts, shopping, government forms, and various personal needs.

C ommunicating almost always through Google Translate, the group developed a lasting bond with the family. “It has been extraordinarily rewarding,” says Bruce. “They are really terrific people. They want the same thing for their kids that all immigrants coming to Canada do. We are all quite fond of them.”

W hen the family’s lease in Mississauga ran out, a close friend, who had arrived from Syria a year earlier, encouraged them to move to the small southwestern Ontario town where he lived. The friend’s former sponsor, an insurance executive, was downsizing and willing to rent his home to

the family for a nominal amount. Once more, the UTS-70 group pitched in with moving, establishing the girls in school, finding resources like a doctor who spoke Arabic, and helping the father pursue job opportunities.

I n mid-May of 2018, with the family increasingly self-sufficient, Doug arranged to visit. Formerly based in Vancouver, he was now living in Ontario and taking the last of the sponsorship funds to the family. Before he left, he emailed the group to say that, in essence, they were now transitioning from sponsorship to friendship. The project was complete.

Two weeks later, Doug was out with a new cycling group in Burlington when a rider at the front of the pack went down. Unable to avoid the cascade of collisions, Doug went headfirst over

the handlebars, dying soon after as a result of his injuries.

A s Ray read from Doug’s original email at the memorial, with Heather, Bruce, and David in the audience, he tied the final threads in the tapestry of UTS-70, which had woven the past, present, and future of UTS together with several personal, political, and cultural narratives.

It’s not hard to imagine that many UTS students who attended that UCW assembly will someday offer to help as these alumni did. Nor is it hard to believe that some among them will work to create a more humane, tolerant, and open world. And it’s equally exciting to wonder if a child or grandchild of the refugee family will attend a good school, maybe even UTS, on the way to making their own contribution. n

LOVE FOR ALL, HATRED FOR NONE

In the aftermath of the Danforth shootings on July 22, the phrase “Love for All, Hatred for None” was seen on placards, hoardings and social media. It is the motto of Ahmadiyya Muslims, a group often persecuted in various regions of the world.

The Syrian family sponsored by members of the Class of 1970 and proceeds from UTS Charity Week 2016 are Ahmadis. This summer, using Google Translate, the father of the family shared a few details of their previous life, journey to Canada, and what it has meant to resettle here.

Here are some extracts:

• The conditions in the refugee camp were horrible. We were not allowed to work and had no money.

• The journey to Jordan took two days. The mercenaries of Bashar Assad’s criminal regime filled the main and side streets as we made our way towards the border. When we arrived in Daraa, a city just before the border, the Nasserite Front was trying to take control of the city from the Syrian forces. A lot of fighting took place and many people had been killed or wounded. It was a horrible sight and a very dangerous time for me and my family.

• My father was kidnapped and killed because of his beliefs. I was threatened because I am an Ahmadiyya Muslim. We do not differentiate between religious sects because all are human beings like us. They have a right to their beliefs and we respect their humanity. But all of this does not spare us from the conflicting parties. Many of my friends were killed because of this.

• The biggest difference between Canada and Syria is the weather. Last winter I thought the snow would never stop. But the schools and the education system are very good. The teachers take an interest in the students. It is very important that my children get a good education.

• Although I was born in Syria, I do not think of returning there. My country is now Canada. I and my children owe her all our love, appreciation, and respect. Canada has treated us as a mother would. This is a country where people have a legitimate right to live together in peace. We pray to God that peace prevails throughout the world.

A FORGOTTEN UTS HERO

An archival error put EDWIN

STORER II

name on

war memorials. It’s time to honour the fascinating true story of this Canadian veteran.

BY DR. PAUL MOORE

Remembrance Day has been a solemn and significant tradition at UTS for nearly a century, befitting a school that, from its earliest days, saw hundreds of students and alumni serve and sacrifice in major military conflicts. Each year, the UTS community gathers for an assembly honouring those who stood, and those who fell, in defence of our nation and its values. Many attendees have taken this opportunity to scan the memorial plaques in the school foyer, which honour the soldiers who studied at UTS and served in the First and Second World Wars.

Those who look closely will see one name twice.

Edwin Williamson Storer II is listed on plaques for both wars. On the nearly 400-name plaque honouring UTS veterans who served in the First World War, he is listed as Lt. E.W. Storer. On the memorial to the 78 UTS-affiliated soldiers who died in the Second World War, he appears as Major Edwin Williamson Storer. However, Storer did not fight in both conflicts, nor did he share a name with another UTS veteran. His inclusion on the latter plaque — and the inaccurate description of his rank — are both the result of archival errors.

Yet the real story of Lt. Edwin Williamson Storer, shared by his grandson Edwin William Storer IV of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, is a remarkable one, revealing a man of exceptional courage and character.

Born on September 13, 1896 in Philadelphia, Storer moved with his family to Toronto and lived in the city’s west end. He entered UTS in its inaugural year, in September 1910, at the age of 14. He later became a cadet in the Queen’s Own Rifles of Canada (a Reserve regiment of the Canadian Militia), which was part of the 109th Regiment. He then signed up as a Lieutenant with the 84th Overseas Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force on December 26, 1915.  The lanky, 6-foot-4-inch Storer sailed from Halifax on the RMS Empress of Britain on June 18, 1916.  Shortly after arriving in Europe, he transferred to the 50th Battalion, Canadian Expeditionary Force, which was part of the 4th Canadian Division.

Less than a year later, Storer would play a role in one of the most important moments in Canadian history. Beginning April 9, 1917, he fought in the Battle of Vimy Ridge, his battalion attacking the highest point on the ridge, Hill 145, where the Vimy Memorial now stands. On the second day of fighting, Storer leapt into a German trench and was wounded in his right thigh by the bayonet of

an enemy soldier. Only bravery and the prompt deployment of his service pistol preserved his life.

Storer was admitted a few days later to a hospital in England, where he spent several weeks recovering. His injury was a factor in denying him the promotion to Captain that he had earned in the field of battle. In addition to the bayonet wound, Storer had also been the victim of a gas attack just weeks before the Battle of Vimy Ridge, an incident he did not report. While the wound healed, Storer would face complications from the gas attack for the rest of his life.

D eclared unfit for further service at the front, Storer returned to Canada on the hospital ship HMHS Araguaya on June 11, 1917, arriving in Halifax on June 23. He then moved on to outpatient treatment in Toronto, where he was declared fit for home service. He was discharged on December 31, 1918, the upper portion of both of his lungs gone as a result of the gas attack and battling pulmonary tuberculosis, with which he had been diagnosed in 1916.

A fter leaving the Army, Storer joined his parents and younger sister in the Chicago area, where they had relocated during the war (his older brother and one of his sisters remained in Canada). He took up a career in the insurance business in Oak Park, Illinois, where he died in 1974. The gas attack he suffered in the First World War was a contributing cause of his death.

W hy does Storer appear on both the First and Second World War memorial plaques in the UTS foyer? The error began with the UTS archival records — “War Records of U.T.S. Old Boys” — assembled in preparation for producing the Second World War plaque. The UTS records, erroneously, list him as having served in the United States Engineer Corps in the Second World War. These records also incorrectly list the cause of his death as “Killed accidentally in motor accident in California.”

T hankfully, Storer ensured that his story could be corrected by passing it down through the generations of his own family. His grandson shared the true details about Lt. Storer’s time before, during and after his military service, information that is confirmed in the elder Storer’s personnel file from Library and Archives Canada.

Every year at UTS, we honour those who have fought and fallen for our freedom. In the case of Lt. Edwin Williamson Storer II, we pay particular tribute, shining the spotlight on his remarkable — and true — story. n

AN INSPIRATIONAL COLLEAGUE

BY JENNIFER HOWELL

This past June brought the retirement of Philip Marsh , an inspirational vice principal and mentor at UTS. Our community will miss him dearly.

I personally owe my success as a teacher to Mr. Marsh, because he is the person who taught me how to be a teacher. In addition to his busy schedule — meeting with students and teachers, working with the UTS Parents’ Association, and attending UTS events — Mr. Marsh also was an instructor at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE). And he was my chemistry instructor, who introduced me to inquiry models, graphic organizers, and POGILs (if you have ever been my student, you know how much I love POGILs!). I will always remember when Mr. Marsh came to observe my classes as a student teacher: in a 75-minute period he wrote six pages of notes about what I was doing well, and how to push my students to achieve more.

A s my instructor, Mr. Marsh was incredibly generous with his time. We used to have Friday afternoon classes that would run until 5:30 pm in Room 320. Students would often stick around after class to pick his brain, and listen to stories about his teaching experiences. We learned so much from Mr. Marsh in only one short year.

About this time five years ago, I graduated teachers college. Mr. Marsh gave me career advice, he acted as my reference, and he helped me secure my first-ever teaching job. Less than one year later, a position opened up at UTS, and I jumped at the opportunity to work alongside Mr. Marsh.

I t hought I had learned a lot as Mr. Marsh’s student! As a new teacher at UTS, Mr. Marsh’s office door was always open to discuss my lesson plans and to advise on challenges that I faced. He always knew exactly what to say, and had so much insight to share. Mr. Marsh is amazingly well-read in educational research and techniques. For the past four years, I have received an email from him almost every week with an article or resource to support my teaching. I cannot express how thankful I am for all he has done to shape me into the teacher I am today.

M r. Marsh may be retiring, but his influence will live on as I put into practice all he has taught me on a daily basis. And I am not the only teacher that he has influenced—so many staff members and students have their own stories to share. We are all so sad to see him leave because we haven’t stopped learning from him yet. However, we know that he will be busy travelling and enjoying his next adventures, which he has definitely earned. We wish Mr. Marsh the absolute best in his next chapter of life! n

ALUMNI NEWS

Notes on the milestones and achievements in the lives of our alumni.

There are plenty of ways to stay in touch!

Two UTS alumni have recently been invested into the Order of Canada. Dr. Bryce Taylor ’62 , Professor of General Surgery at the University of Toronto and former Surgeon-in-Chief at University Health Network, and David Morley ’73 , President and CEO of UNICEF Canada and a faculty member at the Munk School of Global Affairs, are the latest alumni to receive the honour.

Bryce earned recognition for advocating for improved surgical safety standards and patient care and, in particular, for his development of a safe surgery checklist that has proven effective in reducing complications from surgery.

David, meanwhile, was honoured for his international development work, growing the UNICEF organization in Canada, and helping to shape our country’s response to the humanitarian crisis in Syria.

An annual sporting tradition added its latest chapter when the UTS Alumni Golf Tournament teed off at St. Andrew’s Valley Golf Club in June. Participants were treated to updates about the school and the Building the Future campaign from Principal Rosemary Evans and Executive Director, Advancement Martha Drake, as well as a delicious dinner. There was golf, too, of course,

and among the exceptional performances was that of Ken Culver ’53 , who captured the coveted Most Honest Golfer trophy.

The results of Ontario’s provincial election in June included a UTS first. Robin Martin ’82 was elected to serve the Eglinton-Lawrence riding in Toronto, making her the first alumna of UTS to become a Member of Provincial Parliament. She has assumed the role of Parliamentary Assistant to the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care in the Progressive Conservative government.

Each year, Kit Moore ’58 organizes a team to rappel 30 stories down Toronto’s City Hall building to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. This year, Bruce Moyle ’60 was one of the 19 teammates who joined Kit in making

the descent—and in raising more than $54,000 for Make-A-Wish.

UTS history is dotted with families that have left a multi-generational legacy at the school. This fall, three UTS alumnae watched their sons enter the school in F1 and continue their family tradition. Cari Whyne ’87, Carmen Young ’89 and Sara Gray ’90 , pictured below with their sons, have now joined a group of alumni who are also UTS parents.

// The end of the 2017–18 academic year marked the end of an era at UTS. After 108 years, our 371 Bloor Street West school building, which has undergone few significant changes since its opening, is about to experience a major revitalization. But before students made the move to the temporary UTS location at 30 Humbert Street this fall, and before the transformation of 371 Bloor began, our community bid bon voyage to our historic home.

On June 20, more than 600 alumni, current and former staff, students, and parents gathered at UTS for the Bon Voyage, 371 Bloor party. Attendees walked the halls, peeked into classrooms, participated in a photo scavenger hunt, and attended one final assembly in John and Margaret Withrow Hall. Emotions ran high, but the mood was celebratory, as the UTS community came together to revisit cherished memories and look ahead to the bright future of the school.

PROFESSIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS

This past spring, Don Schmitt ’70, principal at Diamond Schmitt Architects (DSAI) and the architect behind the revitalization of the UTS building at 371 Bloor Street West, was awarded the Prix du XXe siècle by the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada. The prestigious honour is awarded each year to the designer of a 20th-century building that has aged with particular grace and is still used for its original purpose. Don received the prize for his design of the YMCA building on Grosvenor Street in downtown Toronto.

The Washington Post has named Joanna Slater ’93 as it latest India bureau chief.

Joanna makes the move from the Globe and Mail, where she had acted as a foreign correspondent since 2010. Well-respected for her reportage on some of the biggest stories of the past two decades, Joanna was named Journalist of the Year in 2015 by the Canadian National Newspaper Awards.

The Rhodes Trust has appointed Richard Pan ’94 as National Secretary and Chairman of the Board for Rhodes Scholarships in Canada. Vice President and Head of Corporate Finance at Power Corporation and Power Financial Corporation,

Richard will represent the Rhodes Trust in Canada and oversee the regional selection committees that choose the country’s 11 Rhodes Scholars annually.

Deanne Williams ’88 has received a Killam Research Fellowship. A professor in the English department at York University, Deanne’s research area is medieval and Renaissance literature, with a particular focus on Shakespeare and girlhood during these historical periods. Her research will benefit from the $70,000 in annual funding (for a two-year period) that comes with the Fellowship.

Congratulations to Wayne Maddever ’68 , who has been elected as a Fellow

of the Canadian Academy of Engineering. A portfolio manager at Bioindustrial Innovation Canada, Wayne was recognized for several notable achievements, including his leadership in research and development, history of patents, publications and awards, and mentoring students in areas related to entrepreneurship and innovation.

LITERARY NEWS

Michael Lower ’89 has published a compelling historical account of a pivotal medieval crusade. The Tunis Crusade of 1270: A Mediterranean History (Oxford University Press, 2018) explores England’s campaign to claim Jerusalem, which unexpectedly detoured into a conflict in the North African city of Tunis. Michael’s book is described by its publisher as follows: “Standing at the intersection of two established bodies of scholarship — European History and Near Eastern Studies — this volume contributes to both by opening up a new conversation about the place of crusading in medieval Mediterranean culture.”

The Night of the Flood: A Novel in Stories (Down & Out Books, 2018) is a collaborative novel with contributions from 14 respected crime fiction writers. Among those authors is UTS graduate Hilary Davidson ’90, whose story, “The Darkest Hour,” has been identified by critics as a highlight of this novel about a small town in chaos.

The third book in an international crime thriller trilogy by Geza Tatrallyay ’67, Twisted Fates (Black Opal Books, 2018) follows its protagonists, a crime novelist and a former

Interpol agent, in their latest encounters in a shadowy underworld. Critical acclaim has once again poured in for Geza’s final entry in the Twisted series.

IN MEMORIAM

DOUG CARTER 1952–2018

Doug Carter ’70 was an accomplished high school athlete, a competitive skier, and an avid cyclist. All of which makes his recent death in a cycling accident that much more tragic. But it was not his lanky athleticism that defined Doug. As his wife Jane observes, “Yes, he loved participating in sports, but if he’d been nothing more, I never would have married him. I wanted someone to debate economic policy, politics, world order, books, and go to the ballet, art gallery, and theatre with me. Doug was that person.”

He had a sunny but not mindless optimism, coupled with a gently persistent persuasiveness and a puckish sense of humour. Where some saw problems, he saw solutions. Where some saw difficulties, he saw opportunities. Doug was that most dangerous of people: an encourager. He gave courage to others. Although he held the position of

Vice President and General Manager at Armtec, his employees saw him not as their superior but as a mentor, someone who brought out the very best in them. When the Terry Fox Centre ran into roadblocks for its planned museum to house Terry’s memorabilia, Doug stepped up and helped to move things forward. In the words of the Chair, Rob Reid, “I know we could not have carried out the vision of this great project without the guidance from Doug.”

A s you age, you look back over your life and wonder if it was important that you were here. In Doug’s case, he could point to physical confirmations that it was: the business he built, the planned Terry Fox Centre. And then there is his wonderful family: his wife Jane, their children James and Sarah, and their grandkids Claire, William, and Jeremy, as well as his mother Jeanne Carter.

But there is another confirmation of his importance, in a family’s escape from the cratered rubble of Syria to the privations of a Jordanian refugee camp and, finally, to safety and freedom in Canada. Doug had a finely tuned moral compass that pointed towards compassion and founded the UTS-70 project (see p. 12) to help resettle a Syrian refugee family.

W hen asked by their future children, the young members of this family will recount a tale that will end, “We were really nervous when we stepped through the airport doorway, but there stood a man with red hair and the warmest smile welcoming us to Canada.”

— Bruce Stodart ’ 70

ROB DOWSETT 1929-2018

In his nearly 89 years, Rob Dowsett ’46 , established a remarkable legacy that will endure for decades to come. An accomplished businessman, philanthropist and family figurehead, Rob will be fondly remembered by everyone whose life he touched.

Rob graduated from UTS in 1946 after a distinguished academic and co-curricular career. His classmate

Ralph Barford ’46 remembers him as “academically gifted,” particularly in the areas of math and physics. Outside of the classroom, Rob was the captain of the UTS football team. “At 150 pounds soaking wet, he was one of the very best all-time secondary linebackers,” Ralph recalls. “He had grit, determination and courage.”

A fter graduating, Rob earned his BA in Honours Mathematics and Physics from the University of Toronto’s Victoria College. Later, having already begun his career with Crown Life Insurance Company, he became the youngest person in Canada to receive the designation of actuary. He would eventually assume the role of President and CEO with Crown in 1971. In 1982, he left the company and went on to become Vice-Chairman of William M. Mercer in 1985.

Rob’s contributions to his profession included serving as a founding member of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries, and acting as the organization’s president for two years. He retired in 1995, but continued working as a consultant until months before he passed away.

A lthough his business career was impressive, Rob’s heart lay in his service to the community. He was a successful fundraiser and generous donor to causes ranging from the McMichael Canadian Art Collection to CAMH to three UTS campaigns. He served on the UTS Alumni Association Board, the UTS Advancement Committee and the Building the Future Campaign Cabinet.

“He engaged himself fully in causes for the public good,” Ralph says. “He was among the best fundraisers I ever met.”

R alph adds that, despite making a significant impact in so many areas of society, Rob was humble about his accomplishments.

“For a man of such great achievements in all his endeavours, he was amazingly modest, and thrived without the public recognition he could have had.”

I f not by the broader public, Rob will forever be held in the highest esteem by his family, friends and the UTS community.

STEVE OTTO 1940–2018

Steve Otto ’57 shuffled off this mortal coil on April 22, 2018. His funeral, which packed Trinity College chapel to the gills, had an elegance of word and song that only he could have planned—which of course he did.

Steve studied Commerce at the University of Toronto and History at the University of Oxford, before obtaining his final degree from Harvard Business School. After a brief career in corporate business, Steve joined the Ontario government in a role that focused on preserving the province’s built heritage.

He left a legacy of preserved and re-purposed landmarks, such as Fort York, Fort William, and Toronto’s Distillery District, which will give pride to Torontonians and Ontarians for centuries to come. Steve knew that legacy requires more than worthy buildings and political will. It requires cold, hard cash. He was an exemplary contributor to causes important to him — including a longstanding record of generosity to UTS. A few weeks before his death, Governor General Julie Payette pinned the Order of Canada medal to his lapel, celebrating over 40 years in the struggle to preserve Ontario’s built heritage.

Steve never married, but he danced his way through Christmas and March break formals with every girl, most of whom later complained to their dates about how much better a dancer he was. Known at UTS as a superb swimmer, he maintained strong ties with the school throughout his life. He served as the default coordinator of our class reunions for decades, and in between kept us informed about marriages, divorces, kids, careers, and last rites. He was a stellar uncle and godfather and a great friend. He initiated contact and got grumpy if you did not get to Toronto regularly. He always offered a bed and elegant home-cooked meals. In return, one had only to endure hours of play-by-play about friends, family and, of course, heritage. Always a good bargain.

W hen I last visited Steve in early

February, he knew his days were closely numbered. We reminisced a bit, but he had work to do: negotiating the publication of his final book on early Ontario architecture and preparing his Gladstone and Disraeli memorabilia for shipment to a goddaughter in England. Heritage to the end.

KATE TILEY 1967–2018

“TA NA SA MA.” Life Death Rebirth Eternity.

This chant was one of a great number of the tributes made with heavy hearts to our beloved Kate Miriam Tiley. With the sound of song and poetry, the smell of white sage smudge in the air, and tearful words of remembrance and celebration, hundreds of those who knew her — family, friends, colleagues, students, and her parents — gathered in Toronto and in Powell River, BC to honour Kate.

An exceptional woman of character, kindness, dedication, and talent who touched so many, Kate will be missed yet continues to inspire so many of us. Her example was to live life with joy and integrity. She was grateful, loving, and deeply loved. She studied, read, and traveled to develop her intellect and languages, yet was most moved by the good people she came to know through her diverse life experiences. And such a beautiful human being, inside and out.  So much more could be said if words could be found. Another tribute invited us to imagine taking her by the hand, walking her toward the light, telling her we are okay, and that she can fly on angel wings.

—Robert Mackle (UTS Faculty, 1988-2011)

After a most successful practicum with us in the UTS Languages Department in 1989, Kate joined UTS in 1991. A brilliant linguist, Kate was a truly gifted,

creative, hardworking, and passionate French teacher.

Kate was deeply committed to her students, always finding new methods and original and authentic teaching materials to enrich and deepen their learning experience. Mengting Qiu ’14 is grateful to Kate for “first being exposed to and falling in love with French theatre, and for inspiring me to continue studying French literature.”

Moreover, Kate made the classroom a happy place, with her great sense of humour, mischievous smile, and sunny personality. Matthew Sohm ’02 reminisces: “She was truly alive, all the time, and I will always remember her sense of playful curiosity and inquisitiveness.”

A generous and caring spirit, Kate was also very attentive to her students’ wellbeing, helping and supporting them in and outside the classroom regardless of the time of day. As Raphaela Neihausen ’95 wrote, “She left such a strong and lasting impression on me and I still vividly remember her energy, warmth, curiosity, and kindness.”

Sunny, caring and generous. Among Kate’s numerous qualities, those are the ones I think about every day; they warm my heart and my soul, and they help me with my grief and my deep sense of loss. Kate was not just an exceptional teacher; she was also a wonderful friend. She forged lifelong friendships and met her soulmate Robert Mackle at UTS. She touched and inspired so many of us, and her sunshine will live within us forever.

Since 2007, parents of graduating students have celebrated their children’s graduation from UTS by making a gift to the Grad Class Bursary Fund in honour of their children. The Grad Class Bursary is endowed with nearly $230,000 which provides approximately $10,000 annually in financial aid to current UTS students. Contributions this year total $15,000. We thank our families for giving the gift of a UTS education!

LOOKING BACK

The introduction of co-education at UTS in 1973 was a watershed moment for the school. But not everyone was thrilled by this transformation, and some observers were eager to share their doubt and derision regarding the decision to admit girls to UTS. 45 years later, co-education, gender equity, and inclusion for all are among the core values of our school.
