Sir William Dawson and Henry Marshall Tory: The Achievements and Ideological Attitudes of Two Great Canadian Educators
|
| Abstract |
John William Dawson's career spanned the latter half of the nineteenth century; Henry Marshall Troy's career spanned the first half of the twentieth century. Dawson (1820-1899), a geologist, was Principal of McGill University and the first Canadian-born scientist to gain an international reputation. The McGill University-educated Tory (1864-1947) set up the McGill University College of British Columbia in 1906, which was absorbed into the University of British Columbia in 1915. From 1908 to 1929, Troy was President of the University of Alberta, and from 1942 to 1947 he was the first President of Ottawa's Carleton College, which later became Carleton University.
