Welcome to the fall 2014 issue of SAM.

We are so proud to share with you stories about your University, and as Canada's consummate storyteller Margaret Atwood tells us in this issue - we as humans are compelled to tell stories. Ms. Atwood will speak at our Calgary Alumni & Friends Dinner in March.

This issue contains stories about students keen on making a difference in the world. It includes stories of alumni who illustrate how the gift of time can make a profound difference in the communities we live, work and play in; and it includes stories about the incredible opportunities being realized at the U of L; philanthropic gifts that take us in new directions; and how preparations for our golden milestone are taking shape.

Our stories connect us. As we approach our 50th anniversary, I encourage you to share your story with us. Please send your story and U of L memories to sam@uleth.ca.

Enjoy!

Tanya Jacobson-Gundlock, Editor
