b&w photograph
Good condition with emulsion lines showing and reverse side yellowing.
Panoramic photo of a reception probably in the days leading up to Convocation, as priests and faculty mingle socially with soon-to-be graduates. Father Fogarty (far left, jutting chin) chats with Physics faculty F. Tomscha (looking at Fogarty) and Commerce student Pierre Champagne (much shorter, in profile to right). Just off centre, Father Belair (grey hair and glasses, arms crossed, Dean of Discipline from 1948-1967) and Father Stewart (dark hair, back to camera) listen as tall Commerce student Barry Lacombe holds forth. At far right, Father Rourke (grey hair and glasses) converses with two unknown gentlemen. Behind him Biology lab professor Enriqueta Rojo stands (back to camera) holding a drink, handbag on her left arm. At upper right, Father Brown keeps shy Arts student David Gray (wearing bow tie) company. Identities confirmed by J. Mills in 2016.
