" Umbria" - a trio of sculptural forms stands near. the main entrance of the University Centre. Canadian sculptor Walter Redinger describes his cast fiberglass and cast concrete composition as " three units making a combined statement." The fiberglass units, " rest, lean and are bolted on and against the concrete forms creating visual relationship in multi-format The lower concrete area serves as a basic foundation with vary ing heights, angles and shapes, homogeneous with the fiberglass units."

Umbria was se lected by the University Com­mittee on Art Acquisitions, working with a committee from the School of Engineering. The art acquisitions committee oversees the Uni­versity's art collection which now numbers more than. ~OO items and advises on the suitability of new additions to the collection. During 1974 and 1975 some 85 acquisitions were made. The Uni­versity's art colle_ction IS the third largest univer­sity collection in Ontario in terms of value.

Creelman, who succeeded his father-In­law Dr. James Mi ll s as Pres ident from 1904 to 192Q, was a period of growth and expans ion. Many new buildings were constructed on campus, new academic programs added and many extension programs offered. Perhaps the zenith of Creelman's career as
