Campus News Everybody got a Kiss at Convocation! Or at least a hug or a handshake! That's how it was at the College this past May. Among the approximately 450 University of Waterloo students graduating in Arts were 64 who pursued studies at St. Jerome's. The four new graduates caught in these almost-candid shots had taken various programs at the College. Here's who they are and what they did. Michael Ferguson (top left), a student from Cambridge, Ontario, shown with his parents and College president Norman Choate, C.R., received an honours degree in psychology with an option in early childhood education and care. Mike supplemented his St. Jerome's courses with specialized courses available at the main UW campus. Getting the hug, and making sure you see the slipcase for his sheepskin, is Warren Delany of Mississauga, who took a four year general program in arts. He returned to school after working as a mason in Toronto and hopes to pursue a career in business. Bottom left is Jane Forler of Elmira and a pair of obviously fond parents. They're all celebrating Jane's graduation in general arts. The handshake at bottom right is being exchanged by Jayne Engeneski of Simcoe, who graduated with an honours degree in psychology, and one of her profs, Dr. John Orlando of the psychology department at St. Jerome's. Coffee, Tea and Mrs. 'B' What would St. Jerome's be without Mrs. Brown? Few can imagine the Coffee Shop without her amiable presence -- students and faculty alike agree she provides an indispensable service. Mrs. Joy Brown has been operating the Coffee Shop for the past nine years. It all began, she explains, when the "day-hop" students wanted to have a place to sit and have a coffee or snack on the St. Jerome's campus. Since Mrs. Brown was herself a part-time student at the time, she was asked by the Student Union to manage what has become "a meeting place for lots of people with lots of interests." Much of the Coffee Shop's special warmth and friendliness is clearly a result of the fact that Mrs. Brown loves her work. "The greatest people in the world stand on the other side of my Coffee Shop door", says Mrs. Brown. "They're just beautiful people." Mrs. Brown's family has long been a part of College life, too. Her son Ellis served as Director of Residence from 1970 until 1974, and her twin daughters Joyce and Judy graduated in 1976. In 1979, Mrs. Brown herself graduated with a B.A. in history and notes proudly "if that's not the first mother/daughter combination the College has ever seen, it's definitely the first mother/twin daughter one!" And what would St. Jerome's be without Mrs. Brown? A little less special.
