SPECIAL MESSAGES

From the President Today is a special day — one of my favourite days in the academic year. For UFV graduands, it is a celebration of the culmination of one or more years of study. At convocation we gather with classmates, professors, and many others, and I hope it is an occasion you will remember fondly for the rest of your lives. Congratulations on your hard work and perseverance. UFV’s coat of arms features the Halq’eméylem word IYAQAWTXW, which means “the House of Transformation”, and I hope upon reflection you have found your time at UFV to be transformative. Everyone at UFV is united by a shared sense of pride in your achievement. We’re proud of you and hope you are equally proud to be joining the community of UFV alumni. The achievement of a university credential is seldom managed without the support of family, friends, parents, and partners. Today is a celebration for these people too, so take time to thank and honour them for their role in your success. Please take confidence in the knowledge, skill, and experience you have gained at UFV and know your greatest success in life is yet to come. We hope you remember that an education goes beyond classrooms and textbooks, and that life-long learning enables continued achievement and success, for you, for your family, and for society. On behalf of everyone at the University, enjoy today and I wish you every success. Congratulations!

Dr. Joanne C. MacLean President & Vice-Chancellor

From the Chancellor Thank you for joining UFV to celebrate the achievements of a remarkable and diverse group of people. In four ceremonies UFV will award credentials to 2,400 graduates from a wide variety of academic, applied, and professional programs. I applaud your talent, hard work, and success. You have earned our respect by overcoming challenges along the way and we are confident your acquired knowledge will benefit you, your family, and your community. I also know you have had unconditional support from family, friends, faculty, staff, and many others during your journey. Please take a moment and thank your support team and perhaps contemplate how you might “pay it forward� to others who need your help. UFV is fortunate to have many volunteers, community leaders, and benefactors who take on the work of building a strong educational community. The university is very grateful for this support from these close friends. Thank you for sharing UFV’s belief that education is one of the best investments in our students and in our society. Congratulations, and all the best in the next chapter of life. Sincerely,

Messages Dr. Andy Sidhu Chancellor

Stó:lō Territory UFV strives to be a place of learning that recognizes, respects, and includes Indigenous ways of knowing. Our Fraser Valley campus locations are in the traditional territory of the Stó:lō people: S’olh Temexw. THE TALKING STICK

THE DRUM

The Talking Stick is a gift from the Stó:lō people to UFV, honouring all Indigenous people. The Talking Stick and Stó:lō drummers lead the academic procession into Convocation and the recession after the ceremony.

The UFV Ceremonial Drum was presented to UFV by the Stó:lō people in 1997. The drum is decorated with the symbol of a thunderbird.

The figures on the Talking Stick are a wolf and a thunderbird. The wolf is symbolic of “the teacher” in Stó:lō territory, while the thunderbird represents the highest level of knowledge. Most universities in the Commonwealth have a ceremonial mace, which accompanies the Convocation ceremonies. It is the staff of office, representing official authority (like the Speaker of the House of Commons). UFV uses the Talking Stick rather than a mace for this purpose, thus bringing together a partnership between Indigenous and university traditions.

Judge Steven Point, who was then the chiefs’ representative of the Stó:lō Nation, presented the drum for use at Convocation and other ceremonies. “It’s with great pride that I present a symbol of our fraternity, camaraderie, and loyalty,” said Point at the presentation ceremony. “We all spent nine months with our mothers, waiting to come in to the world, and we heard her heartbeat, and when we were born, we recognized our mothers by their heartbeat. When we make the sound of a drum it’s a symbol of the heartbeat of our mother. It’s a precious sound, it gathers people together, and we sing our songs. “That’s why we chose this symbol to present to you. We truly want to come together, and to have a good relationship with all of you. I hope and pray that it will always stand as a symbol of the affinity between our groups of people.”

ACADEMIC DRESS

THE CHANCELLOR’S MEDALLION

Traditional academic regalia consists of a gown, hood, and a mortarboard or cap and tassel. The wearing of robes became common in the Middle Ages. In monasteries and universities of the time, scholars wore the same long closed gowns as other medieval men. By the time the University of Cambridge was founded in the early thirteenth century, doctors in law and music were permitted to wear gowns in scarlet, purple, and red. Over time, garments and colours came to identify their university. Regalia colours often matched those of the university patron, or the colours of the city in which the university was located.

UFV’s medallion is worn by the Chancellor for very special occasions. The radiant diamonds in the design symbolize future alumni spreading their knowledge. The BC jade in the centre reflects our region’s rich farming and ecological roots. This hand-crafted 18kt white and yellow gold medallion was a gift to the university from Brian Lee of Abbotsford.

At UFV, regalia uses the university’s rich green colours. There are vee-stoles for diploma and certificate graduates, while bachelor’s degree program graduates wear degree hoods. The coloured binding or trim on the edge of the degree hoods represents the faculty from which a student is graduating.

THE UFV COAT OF ARMS UFV’s coat of arms (on the cover) features symbols of Stó:lô culture, local wildlife, and elements of the Fraser Valley landscape. UFV Motto: IYAQÁWTXW — in Halq’eméylem, the language of the Stó:lō First Nations, it means house of transformation, symbolizing the transformation of character and intellect. Blue herons — First Peoples’ symbols of inquisitiveness, determination, and excellent judgement. Sighting a heron before a hunt indicated the hunt would be victorious. This parallels the search for knowledge at UFV. The sturgeon — a symbol of abundance and a source of life that lives in the Fraser River (symbolized by the green and white undulating stripes). These represent UFV as a source of knowledge and vitality. The hummingbird — representative of joy, resilience, agility, and the ability to travel great distances. These mirror UFV’s mandate to provide lasting knowledge, the ability to respond to the community, endurance over time, and the transfer of knowledge to students for their journey.

Rebecca Robertson

Amrit Dosanjh

Bachelor of Science

Bachelor of Arts

It was university by the numbers for Rebecca Robertson. Her love of science and enthusiastic pursuit of learning and sharing knowledge are evident in her diverse paths of study at UFV.

Amrit Dosanjh has put her education to work — even before formally graduating from UFV.

Rebecca graduates with a mathematics major, a physics minor, a chemistry minor, an intermediate proficiency associate certificate in German, and an advanced proficiency certificate in Spanish. Rebecca was a representative on UFV’s William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition team and participated in UFV’s annual Math Match competition in 2019. She has held a science outreach organizer work-study position, as well as student research positions studying math, physics, and chemistry education. Rebecca engaged the next generation of science learners at Science Rocks! summer camps as a camp facilitator from 2015 to 2017. She volunteered at the BC Secondary Schools Math Contest and Math Challengers competitions for middle school and high school students and currently serves on the executive for the BC Math Challengers Society. She served as an executive of the UFV Math and Stats Student Association and UFV’s University Christian Ministries organization. Rebecca will be pursuing a teaching degree and hopes to inspire the next generation of science students.

During her time as a Bachelor of Arts student in the Criminal Justice program, Amrit completed two practicums. She supported Mission’s Emergency Services where she helped update the emergency plans for the Mission District and contributed to the Mission Community Wildfire Protection plan. Amrit also spent time with Mission RCMP Victim Services, successfully assisting with a grant application for a training session on the role of Victim Services in the criminal justice system. She rounded out her experiential learning by completing a practicum at the Correctional Service of Canada’s Fraser Valley Institution. During her four years as a student, Amrit was a mentor with Big Brothers Big Sisters and was the organizer and host of Rick Hansen’s Annual Vaisakhi show in 2014 and 2015. Most recently, she has been a mentor with the Abbotsford Police Department. Along with these commitments, Amrit maintained her status as a UFV Dean’s List recipient in 2016, 2017, and 2018.


UFV departments nominate students to present the graduate address at each Convocation ceremony. It is an honour to be selected to represent the graduates of 2019. We congratulate the following student speakers:

Christine Drew

Micara Muir

Bachelor of Science in Nursing

Bachelor of Business Administration

Christine Drew is an expert in balance. She’s a student, mother to three, leader, volunteer, and researcher, yet despite these competing priorities, she’s attained an impressive cumulative GPA of 4.04.

Micara Muir has achieved a Bachelor of Business Administration with a major in finance.

In 2015 Christine began pursuing her dream of becoming a nurse. She volunteered in the emergency department at Abbotsford Regional Hospital and became a team leader training volunteers. During the summers she worked as a student nurse at the Chilliwack and Abbotsford hospitals. Christine was a class representative in Nursing and volunteered in BSN Buds, a program where she mentored five first-year nursing students. She also completed a research project with faculty in Health Sciences and received a student research award for her work. She has received several awards: the Joan and Brenda Bishop Memorial Endowment; a Rotary Club of Abbotsford Annual Leadership award; a Chilliwack Foundation Annual Scholarship; two Ecotex Endowment Leadership awards; a Rotary Club of Chilliwack Annual Scholarship in Health Sciences; and the Dhami Family Leadership Endowment. Christine looks forward to working on both a surgical and maternity unit, with the hopes of specializing as a labour and delivery nurse.

Raised in BC’s interior, Micara was encouraged by her mother to participate in a wide range of activities including skiing, dancing, swimming, and horseback riding. Micara first climbed up on a horse at age seven and progressed quickly to competition, where she excelled. She travelled internationally and earned success at show jumping competitions across North America and in Europe. Micara’s focus on horses meant she began her postsecondary education in Kentucky on a scholarship studying equine management, but she soon elected to come back to her family in British Columbia. While completing her studies in business at UFV, Micara has maintained a full-time position with a family-owned and internationally renowned show jumping competition venue in Langley, BC. “Having a full-time job while studying finance has allowed me to see how a successful business runs while learning about it at university,” says Micara. “This fantastic experience means I’ll be staying on after graduation and I’m excited to continue applying and building on the knowledge I’ve gained at UFV.”

Anthony von Mandl, O.C., O.B.C. DOCTOR OF TECHNOLOGY

Intensity, infectious passion, overcoming obstacles by innovation, and an unwavering commitment to his vision led Anthony von Mandl to begin his journey four decades ago. Born in Vancouver and European educated, Anthony, without resources, founded a wine importing firm in Vancouver at the age of 22. Despite difficult initial years, he successfully grew Mark Anthony Wine Merchants, and began to realize his dream: to produce world-class wines in British Columbia’s then unknown Okanagan Valley. It took until 1994, when Mission Hill Family Estate won the trophy for ‘Top Chardonnay Worldwide’ in London, that he knew his dream had legs. Mission Hill has since been transformed into an internationally renowned landmark winery heralded as “The Versailles of the Valley” by The New York Times. After winning ‘Canadian Winery of the Year’ for the sixth time, Mission Hill stunned the wine world by winning ‘Top Pinot Noir in the World’ at the Decanter World Wine Awards in London. Anthony’s CheckMate Artisanal Winery, which he created to harness the effects of climate change to make high-end Burgundian-style Chardonnay, has just been awarded a perfect 100-point score, the first ever for a Canadian table wine. After winning ‘Top Pinot Noir’ in London, he built Martin’s Lane Winery, the most radical Pinot Noir winery in the world. Architecturally stunning, the 6-level gravity-fed winery is carved into a vineyard hillside and the inaugural vintage was awarded 97-points. The family is also a major farmer in the Okanagan and has assumed stewardship of CedarCreek Estate Winery and Road 13 Vineyards. In 2016, Anthony was appointed as an Officer of the Order of Canada and he is also the recipient of the Order of British Columbia. He is also a co-recipient of The Warren Bennis Award for Leadership Excellence. Previous winners include Mikhail Gorbachev, Benazir Bhutto, and Howard Schultz of Starbucks. Anthony is also the Chairman of the von Mandl Family Foundation, supporting cancer research in Canada and the U.S.

Esi Edugyan DOCTOR OF LET TERS

Author Esi Edugyan of Victoria has won the prestigious Giller Prize for Canadian literature twice, including in 2018 for her novel Washington Black, which was also named to a number of Canadian and international Top 10 and bestseller lists. Edugyan first won the Giller in 2011 for her novel Half-Blood Blues — which was also shortlisted for several other awards. Born and raised in Calgary to Ghanian immigrant parents, Edugyan studied creative writing at the University of Victoria. She also earned a master’s degree from Johns Hopkins Writing Seminars. Edugyan was nominated for the honorary degree by UFV Provost Eric Davis. “One of the core values of our university is that of the transformative potential of education. Esi Edugyan’s latest novel aligns perfectly with that value,” he noted. “It tells the story of a young boy who devotes himself to self-education and the transformation of himself from a slave to a free man; and who continually tries to find and/or create community.” When asked by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation about the role of fiction in turbulent times, Edugyan mused on the power of fiction to open doors to the experiences of others. “I think it’s all too easy to deny the humanity of others, especially when they’re hugely unlike ourselves. One of the things that fiction can do is put you into the feelings, the psyche, the body of somebody who is wholly unlike yourself. If you read this and you can start to see the similarities between your own experience and that of somebody wholly unlike you, I think that’s very important.”

H O N O R A RY D E G R E E R E C I P I E N T

Francis Horne Sr. DOCTOR OF LET TERS

Francis Horne Sr. is a world-renowned Coast Salish master carver whose stirring work has been represented in top Vancouver galleries since his professional career began almost 50 years ago. “What’s in the wood is already there,” says Horne of his creations. He merely reveals what the spirit tells him exists in the grain. His lessons in artistic humility started with his own teacher and mentor, Simon Charlie, who told him: “Our hands are only the helpers.” Emerging from a difficult childhood, he has worked with blade in hand and spirit as guide, revealing much about himself in the wood. But perhaps Horne’s most refined sculpting has resulted from providing guidance and teaching, rather than from knife or chisel. He taught UFV’s Indigenous Carving certificate courses; he mentored clients in recovery from corrections at Vision Quest Recovery Society; and now he advises and advocates for Indigenous patients at Fraser Health Authority. Horne takes his Indigenous spirituality everywhere he works, implementing practices like healing circles. “It’s something that’s in my blood, and my DNA, and my spirit,” says the 64-year-old. “Love and forgiveness is for everybody.” Francis Horne Sr. has carved a permanent place for himself in the arts — and hearts — of the Fraser Valley and beyond. The legacy of wood sculpting and graphic arts carries on through his three sons and two daughters.

H O N O R A RY D E G R E E R E C I P I E N T

John Jansen DOCTOR OF L AWS

A dynamic, tenacious, and creative community advocate with decades of public service, John Jansen helped pave the way for countless upgrades to education, health care, transit, and other services. A Chartered Professional Accountant by trade, Jansen was elected as a Chilliwack city councillor and as mayor before serving as an MLA, representing the Social Credit party. During his time in the provincial government, he served as Minister of Business and Immigration, Minister of Finance, and Minister of Health. He was a member of the provincial caucus when Fraser Valley College received university-college status from the government, a key development in UFV’s history. His leadership with the Chilliwack Economic Partners Corporation led to purchasing property from the Canada Lands Corporation to enable the development of Chilliwack’s Canada Education Park — bringing the RCMP, Canada Border Services, and the Justice Institute of BC to locate there along with UFV. This development helped attract many large businesses to the community, providing local job opportunities and further stimulating economic growth. As president of the Chilliwack Hospital Foundation he continues to work tirelessly supporting and expanding health services — driving a $5-million campaign to successfully complete Fraser Health Authority’s $35-million expansion of Chilliwack General Hospital. As a member of council, Jansen was involved in the development of the Chilliwack Airport, and the creation of Townsend Park and Exhibition Field Stadium. Respected and admired by his peers, he received a legacy award from the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce, a fellowship by the Certified General Accountants Association of Canada, and a Paul Harris Fellowship from Rotary International.
