UNIVERSITY OF SASKATCHEWAN MASTER TEACHER AWARD (2015) On January 15, 2016, 620 excited students ar-
rived in Saskatoon to partake in the 11th JDC West business case competition. This competition came to fruition after 15 months of planning by a team of over 20 students and recent alumni, plus the dedication of over 300 student volunteers from across the University of Saskatchewan. With a budget of over $600,000 the student organizing committee was required to work with local business organizations and Western Canadian corporate partners. The student participants, from 12 Western Canadian universities, competed in 10 academic cases, two athletic events, a parliamentary style debate and a social and spirit portion of the competition. The 2016 organizing committee added their own personality to the competition, and some highlights include having the first live cases in JDC West history, as well as ensuring that there was equal male/ female representation on all of the judging panels. Together, the delegates raised $252,828 and logged over 10,528 volunteer hours for Canadian charities.
