Jack Brackenridge Semple

Jack Semple is a virtuoso guitar player and performer whose musical interests are eclectic and wide-ranging, although he is often categorized as a blues musician. He began playing guitar when he was nine, and refined his mastery of his instrument through many hours of dedicated practice.

Jack is the youngest of six children who grew up on the family farm north of Regina. Largely self-taught, he began playing in various Regina-based bands in his teens before performing with the Lincolns, a funk and rhythm and blues band based in Toronto. After two years he returned to Regina, and has raised his family here. He and his wife Tara have three children, all of whom are active in music and the arts.

Jack tours regularly, and has released 10 solo albums, while also contributing to television and film soundtracks from his basement studio. He has a Gemini award for his soundtrack work on the television series Incredible Story Studio and a Juno award for Qu’Appelle, an album of roots music.

Teresa has noted that she is part of the first class to complete their entire program “...knowing that the film industry in the province would be dramatically changed.” She determined to learn all she could from those around her, and give back as well, becoming an advocate for the industry, the art form, and her colleagues.

Her passion has definitely inspired those around her. Students, staff, and professionals want to be involved with her projects. Mark Wihak, Department Head of Film, has noted that he feels “...fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with her.” Gordon Pepper of the Sask Filmpool has praised her contributions as “truly impressive.” As such, we are delighted to award Teresa the Dean’s “Medal”, a hand-built ceramic sculpture that is part of the Sukanen Boats Series by University of Regina alumna, Barbara Goretzky.

W.A. RIDDELL AWARD IN MEDIA, ART, AND PERFORMANCE

The W. A. Riddell Award in Media, Art, and Performance award is awarded to a graduate earning her first degree who has demonstrated exceptional artistic merit as well as academic achievement. Shina Jane Hom, who is graduating with a Bachelor of Music Education Degree (Distinction), is today’s recipient. Ms. Hom earned an 88.83% average in her music courses – her area of artistic focus.

Shina’s commitment to her performance and teaching practice has been evident both inside and outside of the University. She is well-known in the Faculty as a dedicated and wonderful musician. Although a flute major who participated in Wind Ensemble and Orchestra, she also played clarinet in Concert Band and sang in the University Concert Choir.

Outside of school, Shina has been an integral part of the music ministry at her church for many years. She continued playing in the South Saskatchewan Youth Orchestra well into her degree, augmenting the musical development she was gaining at University. As a senior musician in that program, she also had the opportunity to mentor younger musicians. Along the way, she has done stints as a master class teacher, a conductor, a performer, and a volunteer with various groups who have benefitted from her talent.

We wish Shina all the best in her future endeavours. We know from experience that her future students and colleagues will feel blessed to have her in their midst.

ACADEMIC REGALIA The academic regalia worn by the graduates and the members of the platform procession may consist of a gown, a hood or stole (worn over the shoulders), and a hat or mortarboard. All universities have distinctive academic dress for each degree conferred and, at times, for the disciplines in which the degree is awarded. Hence, the colourful variety of academic dress worn by members of the platform procession, who have graduated from dozens of Canadian and international universities, and represent particular groups.

With the exception of students graduating with a PhD and federated college students, graduates wear black gowns. PhD graduates’ gowns are scarlet with royal blue around the collar, down the front and around the sleeves. Students graduating from the University of Regina who have been registered through a federated college wear the following: red gowns for Campion College students, sky blue gowns for First Nations University students, and royal blue gowns for Luther College students. Serving members of the Canadian Forces or Canadian Police Forces may wear their dress uniform without an academic gown, and wear a hood corresponding to the degree they are receiving. At today’s ceremony, the dean of their respective faculty formally hoods students. The University of Regina also permits members of the Platform Party to hood graduates of their immediate family.

Asmundson is an accomplished researcher and his many honours include receiving the Saskatchewan Centennial medal and being inducted as a fellow in the Royal Society of Canada, the highest honour a researcher can receive. His work in the areas of anxiety disorders, chronic pain, and post-traumatic stress disorder, just to name a few, have made him an influential global thinker in the field of mental health. More than 35 graduate students have benefited from Asmundson’s mentorship as both a graduate supervisor and thesis committee member. His students have received

tri-council funding, been published in respected peer-reviewed journals, and attended top-ranked international conferences, helping to secure Saskatchewan a prominent place on the global map of psychology research.

One strong mentorship quality that Asmundson’s students repeatedly cite is the laboratory environment he creates and maintains at the University of Regina. One student notes, “In a discipline which is infamous for competitive and uncooperative interpersonal and professional interactions between students, Gord has implemented a system which breeds collaboration, cooperation, and mutual respect.” The lab’s trademark high morale is due not only to Asmundson’s positivity, but also to the peer-mentorship system he has established, building strong relationships, a collaborative environment, and future leaders in the discipline.

The Alumni Association Award for Excellence in Graduate Research Mentorship focuses on the impact of the candidate’s mentorship on his growth and development as a mentor, the development and growth of his mentees as future scholars and researchers, and the contribution of their shared scholarship and research to the lives of other students and academics who witness and cite their work.

Raymond Blake — Award for Excellence in Research

Named by colleagues across the Canadian scholarly landscape as a “leading historian,” “credit to his profession,” and “accomplished scholar,” historian Raymond Blake is known for not only the depth and influence of his research, but also for his ability to collaborate with others and form interdisciplinary partnerships.

Blake has written and edited 14 books, working with major university presses, and he has several other books currently in process with the University of Toronto Press. As many of his academic colleagues note, the gold standard for historical research is the publication of monographs, and these works are typically the culmination of years of painstaking archival research. The publication of so many books—alongside many articles in scholarly journals—is an extraordinary achievement.

The quality and content of Blake’s research is also noteworthy. Some of his scholarship illuminates the history of federal-provincial relations and enhances our understanding of the evolution of social welfare programs in Canada. By focusing on issues such as equity, inclusion and democracy, Blake has been an influential force on the discourse of the public good, and his research has been important to policy-makers. Blake has demonstrated a commitment to interdisciplinary teaching and research, having collaborated with political scientists, economists, lawyers, and sociologists, among others.

Blake is also one of a very few researchers at the University of Regina to be awarded a Social Science and Humanities Research Council Insight Grant. This flagship funding program for humanities and social sciences researchers is a prestigious honour that speaks to Blake’s importance and accomplishments as a researcher.

The Alumni Association Award for Excellence in Research focuses on the impact of the candidate’s research in his/her discipline, as well as on the public good.


Alec Couros — Award for Excellence in Teaching

Known as a gifted and dedicated instructor and a strong leader, Alec Couros has been inspiring students in the Faculty of Education and beyond through his innovative approaches to learning and his engaging subject matter. While on sabbatical in 2012-13, Couros created and delivered a “Massive Open On-Line” class focussed on technology and education. Describing himself as an “open educator,” Couros takes teacher education online and makes it available around the world. In recognition of these types of pedagogical approaches, Couros was awarded the University of Regina Teaching Award of Excellence for Innovation in Teaching in 2015.Couros’ dedication as a teacher is evident in the ways his students react to his classes. The Dean of Education notes that his teaching evaluations are consistently excellent, and many of his students submit unsolicited comments to the Faculty to show their

appreciation for his innovative teaching. Known as a dedicated instructor who “gives tirelessly of his time to support others,” Couros is “a reflective teacher, visionary, and leader seeking to continually improve his practice, his knowledge, and the experiences he creates for undergraduate and graduate students.”

Couros’ teaching is known and valued beyond the University of Regina. On average, Couros delivers over 20 keynote sessions per year to other universities and faculties of education, the Saskatchewan Ministry of Education, and school divisions around the world. So respected is Couros’ expertise that the Ministry invited Couros to create digital citizenship guidelines to be used throughout the province in support of teachers and students in their use of technology and social media. Couros is a true visionary leader in his field.

The University of Regina Alumni Association Award for Teaching Excellence recognizes sustained excellence in leadership and innovation for undergraduate teaching and learning at the University of Regina.

David Gerhard — Award for Excellence in Teaching

Department of Computer Science professor David Gerhard has been kindling the curiosity of students across disciplines and generations for the last twelve years. Known across the University of Regina campus and beyond as an engaging and innovative instructor, Gerhard is attuned to the needs of his students and takes direction from the class itself when designing a course and presenting the material. Gerhard consistently emphasises the practical applications of computer science, asking his upper-level students to focus on implementation-heavy projects and provide classroom demonstrations. Gerhard’s teaching further reaches into the community through his Continuing Education classes at the University’s College Avenue campus. In these classes, Gerhard has taught community members—often senior citizens—how to use Facebook and other social media, as well as iPads and mobile technology.

One of Gerhard’s most notable achievements lies in his ability to cross traditional disciplinary boundaries and marry the worlds of computer science and the creative arts. Gerhard made fundamental contributions to the design of creative technologies curricula at the University of Regina. This cross-disciplinary approach to teaching incorporates technological skill in the development of systems for the creation of artistic and interpretive works, and it gives context and history to the design and development of creative practices. For the last five years, Gerhard has collaborated with Media, Art, and Performance faculty members to develop a minor in creative technologies for computer science students and a new concentration in the computer science degree program. An associate member in the Faculty of Media, Art, and Performance, Gerhard co-teaches courses with music and creative technologies faculty and supervises interdisciplinary graduate students.

The University of Regina Alumni Association Award for Teaching Excellence recognizes sustained excellence in leadership and innovation for undergraduate teaching and learning at the University of Regina.


Roz Kelsey — Award for Excellence in Service

Roz Kelsey’s career as a Professor in the Faculty of Kinesiology and Health Studiesleaves no doubt that she places an emphasis on social justice and embodies the idealof as one who serves.

Since 2014, Kelsey has worked tirelessly on a remarkable violence against women prevention campaign that has grown to become a powerful social movement known as Man Up Against Violence™ (MUAV). While the campaign began in the classroom, it quickly grew and spread across the University in the form of speakers, film presentations and discussions, and other large events involving multiple academic and administrative departments. The MUAV events have been called “thoughtful,

informative, creative and engaging,” and the University’s Director of Security and Operations notes that this community-centred initiative has helped her security team “provide a safe and welcoming environment for the campus community” by, in part, “chang[ing] the way we think about sexual assault and violence against women.”

The MUAV movement challenges deeply held mindsets about masculinity and works to inspire men, particularly male athletes, to accept their role as advocates for the prevention of violence in our communities. MUAV spends considerable time focusing on how unhealthy constructions of masculinity play a role in domestic abuse and various other forms of violence. The Dean of Kinesiology and Health Studies remarks, “It’s a revolution of thought led by a strong female leader with a team of empowered young men. That’s more than special. That’s extraordinary.”

The University of Regina Alumni Association Award for Service Excellence recognizes sustained excellence in leadership by the candidate to promote and provide awareness of the university and her discipline to the public.
