This fonds includes records relating to the development and maintenance of Regina Waterfowl Park (part of the Wascana Authority); preservation of grasslands; and other material relating to Saskatchewan's parks and natural history.

This collection contains biographical material, including an obituary, for Professor Vanterpool; it also contains two articles written following the death of Professor William Pollock Fraser. There are also a few transcribed notes concerning Professor Vanterpool's research, a history of "The Development of Graduate Research in the Biology Department" (October 1958), a list of graduate students in plant pathology at the U of S, and a compilation of letters and photos from Professor Vanterpool's graduate students given to him upon his retirement. There is also a framed set of six Athletic Association medals from Macdonald College and a framed gold medal from the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, articles by Vanterpool and a photo album.

This fonds contains material relating to the research work, students, faculty and administration of the College of Arts and Sciences, and its departments. These records generally contain correspondence, minutes, reports, and memoranda; they may also contain material relating to associated national or international organizations, research articles, and addresses.

This fonds contains correspondence; minutes; reports; working papers; briefs and submissions; both for the Advisory Planning Committee on Medical Care, and for the Oil and Gas Conservation Board. Additionally, there is material from Thompsons's tenure as President of the University of Saskatchewan; material related to the International Botanical Congress and the International Congress of Genetics; and several reference books, primarily dealing with Medicare in Canada and abroad.

This collection contains notes, abstracts, and correspondence relating to 7 research articles by Dr. Turel, as well as a copy of her PhD thesis.

A collection of charts and diagrams that would have likely been used in a classroom setting. Many of them are hand painted, with some being commercially created. The topics include botany, agriculture, zoology, and general science.

Documents in the fonds relate to the National Research Council - International Biological Program Natural Area Survey - Conservation Terrestrial Saskatchewan Region. Most regions of Canada had an IBP Committee working toward the establishment of a Natural Area system. The Sask. provincial program started in 1968. Fieldwork began in 1969 with 95 areas were selected for the inventory.

The material in this fonds documents the teaching and research career of Vipen Sawhney. The teaching material includes lecture notes, course outlines, teaching slides and examinations. The research material contains correspondence, notes, articles by Sawhney and others, slides, negatives, photographs and microscope glass slides.

Dr. Lacalli's research involves the embryology and larval forms of marine invertebrates: principally, the development of the nervous system and the formation pattern in these organisms. His work has included theoretical, computer-based studies of how pattern and formation appear de novo in embryos as they develop, and microanatomical studies (primarily, via serial electron microscopy) of the developing nervous system in simple invertebrates near the evolutionary stem from which vertebrates, with their advanced nervous system, evolved. The process developed by Lacalli enabled an image of the whole body of their specimens in one micrograph, a relatively rare achievement and one which enabled him to analyse the nervous system in far more detail than was previously possible. This fonds contains an extensive collection of the electron micrographs taken by Lacalli, together with research notes, offprints, and other documentation relating to his research activities
