b&w photograph
Very good. Fingerprints along top and bottom edges. Lower left corner dirty.
Photo of Halifax MP Gerald Regan (left) receiving honourary degree from Dr. Ken Ozmon (centre, SMU President 1979-2000) and Archbishop Hayes. Dr. Jabbra (VP Academic, white tassel, program on lap) is seated at left. To left of Regan's elbow is Father Stewart (wearing glasses, Librarian during the 1940's and 1950's). Convocation is taking place in the newly refurbished McNally Theatre Auditorium, officially opened on March 1 1982, with the stage moved to the east wall and the auditorium seating in the west wall (adjoining McNally Building), while still retaining the external facade of the original chapel. This space was the main level of the original chapel (built in 1953, complete with altar).
Can be found in 1982 Convocation Program. Came in an envelope marked 'Convocation 1982'. From Art Gallery.
