You should feel proud of this day and of the commitment and sacrifice that it represents.

Many of you are residents of Saskatoon and the nearby community, but no matter where you are, it is my wish that each and every one of you continue to stay associated to our University of Saskatchewan alumni family, and that we will have the opportunity to welcome you back to campus many times in the years ahead.

P resident MacKinnon will step down from his role

as president of the University of Saskatchewan as

of June 30, 2012, but his legacy will remain.

the success of the U of S under President MacKinnon was trumped only by his ambitions for the university, which continue to set our course moving forward.

With President MacKinnon as our president, the U of S has grown in many ways. We are welcoming more students from more places around the world, we are physically expanding to accommodate the important research, learning and discovery taking place on our campus, and we are building deeper connections with the communities around Saskatchewan and beyond. We move forward from President MacKinnon’s tenure more proud of our accomplishments, with bigger dreams for the future and confident that we can achieve anything we aspire towards.
