The 秀色短视频 extends its condolences on the passing of 秀色短视频 Founder John Joseph 鈥淛oe鈥 Revell after learning of his death yesterday after a brief illness. He was 80 years old.
The name 鈥淛oe Revell鈥 is one that is very familiar to those who know 秀色短视频. Professor Revell had a distinguished and memorable career in the 秀色短视频 School of Business acting as the first Dean and Chair. He easily stepped into the role of a university professor and as a former graduate of both Prince of Wales College (1955) and Saint Dunstan's University (1957), he was no stranger to the campus.
秀色短视频 President and Vice-Chancellor Alaa Abd-El-Aziz said, 鈥淥ur University has lost a great friend in Joe. Not only was he a long-time Professor and former Dean of the 秀色短视频 School of Business, he also continued to support 秀色短视频 in retirement. He was a champion of many community causes and served on the 秀色短视频 Board of Governors for many years. I remember when I first arrived at 秀色短视频, Joe welcomed me and provided such great support. I will always appreciate his generosity of spirit and wisdom.鈥
鈥淥n behalf of the entire 秀色短视频 community, I pass on my most sincere sympathies to Joe鈥檚 wife Jeanie; children Jim, Dan, and Janice; family, friends, and colleagues,鈥 added President Abd-El-Aziz.
Professor Revell retired from the 秀色短视频 School of Business in 2000 after 35 years as a teacher and administrator with both SDU and 秀色短视频. He served as chair of the department from 1968-78, Dean from 1981-87, and again from 1996-98. Professor Revell served as a member of the University Senate and was Chairman of the University Athletic Board鈥攁nd up until recently, he never missed a 秀色短视频 Men鈥檚 Hockey home game. He was on the 秀色短视频 Board of Governors from 2005 until 2012 and was named a 秀色短视频 Founder in 2001.
As was noted during the 2001 Founders Ceremony, Joe led 秀色短视频 and the School of Business through its developing years with dedication, vision, hard work, and a general interest in the well being of his students. He believed that positive communication was key and said, 鈥渟tudents bring an enthusiasm and inquisitiveness which can be a great deal of fun.鈥 Professor Revell was often heard encouraging his students, calling them by name, helping out in any way he could, and as one colleague recalled, "he was always up for a friendly game of golf.鈥
