秀色短视频 President and Vice-Chancellor Alaa Abd-El-Aziz issued a statement today on the passing of 秀色短视频 honorary degree recipient, the Honourable Barbara Hagerman.

鈥淥n behalf of 秀色短视频 students, faculty, staff, and alumni, I would like to extend my deepest condolences to Dr. Hagerman鈥檚 husband Nelson, their children, and extended family and friends,鈥� said 秀色短视频 President and Vice-Chancellor Alaa Abd-El-Aziz. 鈥淏arb was not only a tireless community volunteer, beloved music educator, and former Lieutenant Governor of our province, but she was a great friend of this University.鈥�

During her five-year term as Lieutenant Governor, Dr. Hagerman connected directly with the University and established two major initiatives which have had a profound and positive impact on 秀色短视频 students: monthly public recitals featuring 秀色短视频 music students at Fanningbank, her official residence, and a Family Mentor Program, whereby PEI families would become "hosts" to incoming international students. She and Nelson were proud "Island parents" to twelve 秀色短视频 students and remained in close touch with many of them since their graduation. Dr. Hagerman was also the first Honorary Patron of the AIRS project at 秀色短视频.

As noted in the citation read at Convocation in 2014 when her 秀色短视频 honorary doctor of laws was conferred, Dr. Hagerman always felt that music had been the key to unlock many of life鈥檚 doors, giving her confidence, creative inspiration, and a career. She often said, 鈥淚 have always lived to sing.鈥� A very organized person and planner, she had even composed her epitaph many years ago, 鈥淪he just wanted to make a beautiful sound, personally and professionally.鈥�

鈥淭he entire 秀色短视频 community is saddened that the Honourable Barbara Hagerman鈥檚 鈥榖eautiful sound鈥� has been silenced, but is heartened that her tremendous contributions to the creative life of our province will be remembered forever,鈥� added President Abd-El-Aziz.

Dr. Hagerman passed away in Charlottetown on October 6, 2016 after being diagnosed with terminal cancer earlier this year.

Season preview contributed by Thomas Becker

The 秀色短视频 Men's Hockey Panthers are a team on the hunt.

After upsetting the Acadia Axemen in the AUS quarterfinals last season but losing to the eventual national champions, the UNB Varsity Reds, the Panthers are hoping to use that experience as their championship pursuit begins.

To combat the inevitable injury bug that decimated their lineup last season, the Panthers armed themselves with a group of skilled recruits who will provide much-needed depth to their lineup.

鈥淭he teams that do well in our league are able to protect themselves against injuries, suspensions and illness,鈥� said Panthers head coach Forbes MacPherson. 鈥淎t this time last year, we felt like we had a pretty good team. But all of sudden three weeks into the regular season, and we were down three top-six forwards and we just couldn鈥檛 recover from it.鈥�

Now, after a successful offseason in which they acquired 10 new players, the Panthers are eager to hit the ice when it all matters Saturday night.

鈥淲e had a big recruiting year, both in quantity and quality,鈥� the coach said. 鈥淏ottom line, we just had to get better and we had to get deeper and I think we did that.鈥�

Strong relationships with past and current Panthers helped make the acquisitions possible, promising their new linemates a small but welcoming school with a hockey program gearing up for a championship run.

鈥淲e wanted to bring in players who have all the qualities we are looking for in a person and as a player.鈥�

Among them are former NHL prospects Austin Levi (third-round pick by the Carolina Hurricanes in 2010) and Cody Payne (fifth-round pick by the Boston Bruins in 2012), Kurt Etchegary (former captain of QMJHL鈥檚 Quebec Remparts), Beau McCue (Tri-City Americans of the WHL), J.C. Campagna (St. Thomas Tommies), Riley Whittingham and Bobby Zinkan (Summerside Western Capitals).

鈥淔rom a hockey perspective, they increase our skill level.鈥�

Forwards Payne, Etchegary, McCue, Campagna and Whittingham will help shore up an offence that struggled to score at times, notching just 78 goals in 28 games 鈥� the fewest of any playoff team. They鈥檒l join winger Marcus Power (32 points) and P.E.I.鈥檚 own Brent Andrews (25 points) to form a skilled attack that will have opponents scrambling for answers.

鈥淲e won鈥檛 be relying on one or two players to carry the workload offensively,鈥� said MacPherson. 鈥淚t鈥檒l be more of an offence-by-committee and that will make us more difficult to go up against. We鈥檙e going to get everyone involved so our depth becomes an asset.鈥�

Physically the Panthers are a bigger team, built with the strength necessary to push top-tier teams like UNB and St. FX off the puck while making their rivals uncomfortable throughout the game.

鈥淲e have to use our size, physicality and aggression on the forecheck to make an impact.鈥�

Led by all-star and Summerside native Ryan MacKinnon and fellow defenceman Nelson Armstrong, the defence aims to improve after allowing 100 goals in the 2015-16 campaign 鈥� the third highest of any team.

While Levi鈥檚 NHL experience will be felt behind the blue line, the key to success will likely come down to sound fundamentals and a team approach that MacPherson has been preaching throughout training camp.

Longtime Panther Mavric Parks鈥� place between the pipes has been taken over by Matt Mahalak, who is expected to get the majority of the starts this season. Mahalak put together a respectable season as a reserve, posting a 2.77 goals against average with a .917 save percentage. Connor Wilkinson, meanwhile, will serve as Mahalak鈥檚 backup.

鈥淭he two goalies left behind are going to be handed the keys and we believe they can get the job done.鈥�

While the (AUS) conference has a lot to offer in terms of national superiority (UNB, St. FX and Saint Mary鈥檚 finished as CIS鈥檚 top ranked teams), the Panthers aren鈥檛 ready to just hand over a championship. They鈥檒l have a lot to say about it when the puck drops for real on Saturday.

鈥淚 think it鈥檚 going to be the most competitive year ever for this conference. Anybody who鈥檚 watched our team over the last few years knows when they buy a ticket, they鈥檙e going to see a very fast-paced, competitive, hard-hitting, aggressive hockey team.鈥�

Catch the Panthers at home on October 8 when they take on the defending national champions the UNB Varsity Reds at MacLauchlan Arena. Puck drops at 7 pm.

UPDATE: Matt Mahalak has also ! Congratulations, Matt!

Every week, 秀色短视频 Athletics and Recreation recognizes two student-athletes for their hard work and dedication to their respective sports. Congratulations to Carolina Del Santo (women鈥檚 basketball) and Matt Mahalak (men鈥檚 hockey), the 秀色短视频 Panther Subway Athletes of the week for October 3-9!

Matt Mahalak is a third-year Business student and a goalie from Monroe, Michigan. With Mahalek between the pipes, the 秀色短视频 Men鈥檚 Hockey team won back-to-back games in the last week. The Panthers beat Universit茅 de Moncton 7-5, and won against the University of New Brunswick in an overtime shootout. 鈥淢att played very well for us on the weekend,鈥� said coach Forbes MacPherson. 鈥淚t was important for Matty to get off on the right foot, and with two wins and 60 saves, he was a key factor in our two-win week.鈥�

Carolina Del Santo comes to the 秀色短视频 Women鈥檚 Basketball team from Barcelona, Spain. The first-year science student kicked off her career as a Panther at the Concordia tournament in Montreal, pulling a double-double in her final two games. She scored 13 points and grabbed 12 rebounds against the University of Ottawa, and 14 points and 10 rebounds against the University of Guelph. She shot over 50% from the field and was selected to the tournament all-star team. 鈥淐arolina played very well at the Concordia tournament getting better in each of our three games,鈥� said coach Greg Gould. 鈥淪he gives us the low-post presence that we have been lacking. She not only gives us scoring and rebounding, but is someone who can defend opposing posts exceptionally well. I feel that as Carolina gets more experience at the CIS level she will become a dominant force in the AUS.鈥�

Congratulations Carolina and Matt!

Fiction writer Elizabeth Hay is deservedly blessed with devoted fans across Canada, and PEI is no exception. She will read from her new work, including the novel His Whole Life, on Friday, October 21, at 7:30 pm in the 秀色短视频 Faculty Lounge, SDU Main Building. A reception and book signing will follow.

Novelist Annabel Lyon says of His Whole Life, 鈥淭his most wonderful of novels offers an unsentimental look at the sweetness and pain of boyhood against the backdrop of Quebec鈥檚 independence movement in the 1990s. Conflicts large and small between city and country, French and English, [Canadian] wife and [American] husband, mother and son play out in Elizabeth Hay鈥檚 signature tender but incisive prose.鈥�

His Whole Life partly grows out of Hay鈥檚 experience of marrying an American and having dual-citizen children, her lasting regret for not getting her son a dog when he wanted one at age ten, and a question he asked during a camping trip: 鈥淲hat鈥檚 the worst thing you鈥檝e ever done?鈥�

Hay鈥檚 fictional worlds reflect her loving embrace of the landscapes and communities where she has lived, from her childhood years in Owen Sound and the Bruce Peninsula to a richly influential adolescent stay in England. Her adulthood and writing career have found her in Yellowknife, Winnipeg, New York City, Latin America, and now Old Ottawa South and her mother鈥檚 home region of the Ottawa Valley.

Her numerous prize and nominations include the Giller Prize for Late Nights on Air, the Ottawa Book Award for Garbo Laughs, and being a finalist twice for the Governor General鈥檚 Award for Fiction for Small Change and A Student of Weather. In 2002 she was honoured with the Marian Engel Award for a woman writer in mid-career.

Winter鈥檚 Tales is sponsored by the 秀色短视频 English Department, Faculty of Arts, and the office of the Vice-President Academic and Research, with funding from The Canada Council for the Arts.

秀色短视频鈥檚 Robertson Library is hosting a new book event series this fall called 鈥淥pen Pages,鈥� which will feature local authors speaking about their books: what inspired them, what they learned, what they shared. The public is warmly invited to this series. Light refreshments will be served. Books will be available for sale and signing.

The first Open Pages features Time and a Place: An Environmental History of PEI, published by Island Studies Press. The event is Wednesday, October 12, 7 pm in the second floor common area of the Robertson Library.

Time and a Place is the first environmental history of Prince Edward Island and the first such history of any Canadian province. It features 12 essays and explores how the Island has evolved from the Ice Age to the Information Age. One of the book鈥檚 strengths is the diversity among its expert authors. They discuss agriculture, fisheries, and forestry with some topics in common, including climate change. They also discuss the human impact on the Island鈥檚 fields, forests, and waters, and in turn, how nature has affected Islanders.

Several of the book鈥檚 contributors plus two of its editors, Dr. Ed MacDonald and marine biologist Dr. Irene Novaczek, will be featured at Open Pages to discuss Time and a Place, and encourage questions on its content.

The Island Studies Lectures Series gets under way for a new season on Tuesday, October 18, at 7 pm in the SDU Main Building Faculty Lounge on the 秀色短视频 campus. Kicking off the season is 秀色短视频 historian Dr. Edward MacDonald, who will present a public lecture, 鈥淭he Romance of Prince Edward Island: A Tour Through the 1941 Visitors' Guide.鈥�

Along with fellow Islander Dr. Alan MacEachern of the University of Western Ontario, Dr. MacDonald has been working for many years on a history of Prince Edward Island tourism. In 1941, for special reasons, Prince Edward Island dressed itself up as 鈥淭he England of Canada鈥� in a bid to attract war-wary American tourists. One visitor saved the guide, adding their own comments in the margins. Six decades later, that guide has come back to the Island. Its pictures, text, ads, and annotations provide a revealing glimpse into an industry that was still struggling to define itself.

Dr. Edward MacDonald teaches in the History Department at 秀色短视频. His research focus is the social, cultural, and environmental history of Prince Edward Island. Along with Dr. Josh MacFadyen and Dr. Irene Novaczek, he is co-editor of Time and A Place: An Environmental History of Prince Edward Island, co-published by Island Studies Press and McGill-Queen鈥檚 University Press. The best known of his seven books is If You鈥檙e Stronghearted: Prince Edward Island in the 20th Century (October 2000).

Admission to the lecture is free, and everyone is welcome to attend.
