Bio/Historical Note: Graham Westbrook Rowley was born in 1912 in Manchester, England. He attended Clare College, Cambridge, and received his BA from the University of Cambridge in 1934 and his MA from the same institution in 1936. From 1936-1939, Rowley engaged in an archaeological excavation in the Eastern Canadian Arctic. During this time, he discovered new islands in Fox Basin, carried out the original exploration of the Baffin Island coast, crossed Baffin Island by a new route, and excavated the first major site in Dorset culture. Because of his work with the Inuit and Dorset peoples, Rowley had a large island and river in the Arctic named after him. A Fellow of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, Rowley was awarded the Society's prestigious Massey Medal in 1963 for his geographical work. As a scientist with the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development in the early 1970s, he created a training program for Northern scientists and developed ground and air support services for scientific groups working in the Arctic. He was made an honourary member of the American Polar Society in 1985, due to his countless advancements and discoveries in the field. Rowley died in Ottawa in 2003.

Bio/Historical Note: Saint Thomas More College (STM) has the distinction of being the first and only federated college at the University of Saskatchewan. It was established as a Catholic college in 1936 following negotiations between Fr. Henry Carr of the Basilian Fathers of Toronto and President Walter Murray of the University of Saskatchewan, and was named for Thomas More, who had been canonized in 1935. Yet the pre-history of the college and its buildings goes back more than a decade earlier. For several years, Saskatoon Catholics had been asking for a Catholic college at the newly established University of Saskatchewan. The first step was taken in 1926, when a group of Catholic laymen established the Newman Society, with the long term goal of establishing a Catholic college at the university. By September of that year, "arrangements were in place for Fr. Dr. Basil Markle from the Archdiocese of Toronto to teach Scholastic Philosophy at the University of Saskatchewan and to serve as chaplain for the Catholic students." The first facility for the Catholic chaplain, with chapel and clubrooms for the use of the Catholic students, was Newman Hall (usually called "the white house"), built in 1927 on land on the south side of the campus at the corner of College Drive and Bottomley Avenue. This building later became St. Thomas More College in 1936 and in 1943 it was enlarged in anticipation of an expected large influx of students when the war would end. The first section of the present greystone building was constructed in 1954-1956 at a cost of $600,000; it was designed by architects Webster and Gilbert and built by Shannon Brothers of Saskatoon, for whom the college's Shannon Library is named. The new building was officially opened on 7 February 1957. Subsequent additions to the college building were completed in two phases, one in 1963 and another in 1969. This three-stage period of construction on the building translated into well over a decade of constant construction between 1954 and 1969, and included a chapel, library, cafeteria, auditorium, faculty offices, classrooms, and an art gallery. Living quarters on the third and fourth floors, used by the Basilian Fathers for many years, have been converted to offices and classroom space in recent years. Renovations since 2000 have involved changes to the auditorium, cafeteria, student and faculty lounges, library, art gallery and the rededication of some areas to use as classrooms.

Head and shoulders image of Dr. Rex H. Schneider, first principal, Luther College, Regina, from 1926-1964.

Bio/Historical Note: Dr. Rex Harold Schneider was born in Birnamwood, Wisconsin, took his higher education at Capital University and the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Columbus, Ohio, then his MA at Columbia University. After a few years as principal of high schools in Ohio, he became the first principal of Luther College in Regina in 1926, a position he held until August 1964. During these 38 years Dr. Schneider guided the development of Luther College as a residential high school and Junior College affiliated with the University of Saskatchewan. The college grew even during the difficult years of the economic depression followed by World War II and the institution was ready for expansion in the post war period. Dr. Schneider initiated the exchange of instructors and students in the University program between Luther College and Regina College. This resulted in having him at Regina College and the University from 1944 to 1960 as exchange professor of Psychology. From 1946-1964 he was president of the Canadian Lutheran World Relief which has been engaged in relief in all parts of the world and has helped 20,000 refugees to new homes in Canada. From 1956-1964 Dr. Schneider was a member of the Joint Union Committee established to complete the merger of three international Lutheran bodies resulting in the formation of the American Lutheran Church. His alma mater, Capital University, conferred an honourary doctor of laws degree upon him in 1942 in recognition of his services. The Regina Campus of the University of Saskatchewan also awarded him the same degree in 1965. Named in his honour is the Rex Schneider Auditorium at Luther College.
