In the Guelph Mercury this morning was news that David Mirvish, Toronto theatre magnate and son of the late entrepreneur and philanthropist Ed Mirvish, will succeed Pamela Wallin as Chancellor of my alma mater, the University of Guelph.
“It’s an honour and privilege to be asked to serve as chancellor of the University of Guelph,” Mirvish said in a press release.
“I am proud to become a member of a
university community that is making a difference around the world,” he
added. “I look forward to getting to know the students, faculty, staff
and alumni, and to being an ambassador for Guelph’s people, ideas and
innovations.”
