The group, which includes current University Board of Governors member Gary Carlson, far left, is getting ready to board a bus outside the Agriculture Building. to be given an expert tour of new buildings by U of S Associate Vice-President of Facilities Management Paul Becker, fifth from right, and University Architect Colin Tennent, far right. Becker and Tennent had just given the Agriculture grads a PowerPoint computer presentation about physical changes to the campus in the past 40 years. They had then taken a tour of the Agriculture Building. The Saskatchewan Agriculture Graduates' Association holds its reunion during Crop Production Week, and also has a hockey tournament, bonspiel, etc.

College of Agriculture Building Swimming Pool?

Scott Sefton surveys the damage in the Vocational Agricultural Association student lounge on the main floor of the Agriculture Building on Oct. 10, as students arriving that day found that unnamed persons (perhaps from another ollege, and dressed in red?) had spent the night taping plastic over the whole lounge floor and up the walls and overturned tables - filling the room with hundreds of gallons of water. There's even a dirt island in the middle, with a flag sporting an evil grinning red face. Sefton, an SVAA vice-president, says his group's members, students in the Diploma in Agriculture program, begin classes the day cafter Thanksgiving, and often get a prank welcome. He said they'd begin the cleanup that afternoon.
