While media and government officials have been drawing attention to the state of Attawapiskat, it’s almost impossible for a resident of southwestern Ontario to understand the issues at hand, say two graduate students at The University of Western Ontario.
John Bell has been described as ‘potentially one step below Einstein.’
It’s bigger, better and fully-loaded. And, its mission has the work of a University of Western Ontario scientist on board.
Thanks to the generosity of a former graduate student and elementary school teacher, Walter M. Lobb, The University of Western Ontario’s Faculty of Education has developed a new mental health program and scholarship fund to address the needs of teachers who deal with students’ mental health issues every day.
Media, Structures, and Power: The Robert Babe Collection (University of Toronto Press, 432 pgs, $37.95) is a collection of the scholarly writing of Canada’s leading communication and media studies scholar, Faculty of Information and Media Studies professor Robert E.

It’s a game of good cop, bad cop. Paul Paolatto knows how to coach a hesitant researcher through the process of bringing an invention to market. But when it comes to the business-end of things, he isn’t afraid to roll up his sleeves and do the dirty work to get it off the ground.
