In addition to receiving a high quality education which has served me well ever since, memorable highlights include significant participation in the statue stunt; Wally Gage's 1975 birthday party at the Hyatt Hotel (coinciding with our 10th alumni anniversary); being an inaugural member of the UBCAA Victoria Leadership Council; and receiving the Engineering Alumni Excellence Award for Community Service in 2012 and the Dean's Medal of Distinction in 2016.
