Kathleen Macmillan, Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션78, credits her sons for inspiring her to contribute to her alma mater in all the ways that she can.
Together with her husband Graham Macmillan, MBA카지노 게임 컬렉션78, they have watched their three sons leave their mark on Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s. Tom, Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션06, was a coordinator for and a volunteer with the on-campus program. James, Artsci카지노 게임 컬렉션10, MBA카지노 게임 컬렉션11, was the 2006-07 Alma Mater Society president, and Jack, their youngest, is currently attending the Smith School of Business.
카지노 게임 컬렉션They inspired me. They reminded me that Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s is a place of service, and students are very committed to making the university better,카지노 게임 컬렉션 said Ms. Macmillan.
For her leadership in volunteerism and philanthropy, and her contributions to Canadian trade policy, the Ottawa Branch of the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트 Alumni Association (QUAA) will present Ms. Macmillan with the Agnes Benidickson Award at a reception in Ottawa on May 16.
The award, established in 1990, is the highest tribute bestowed by the Ottawa Branch of the QUAA and is given for distinguished service to the university and Canada. 카지노 게임 컬렉션I am surprised, touched and very honoured to be included in the company of so many incredible previous recipients of this award,카지노 게임 컬렉션 she said.
Previous Agnes Benidickson Award recipients include former Speaker of the House Peter Milliken, Arts'68; MP and Canada카지노 게임 컬렉션s first female foreign minister Flora MacDonald, LLD카지노 게임 컬렉션81; and Globe and Mail columnists Hugh Winsor, Arts'64, and Jeffrey Simpson, Arts카지노 게임 컬렉션71, LLD카지노 게임 컬렉션05.
Although she and her husband had been donors for many years by the time their eldest son Tom had graduated, it was son James who encouraged his mom to run for the Board of Trustees. Since then, Ms. Macmillan has served with the university in numerous roles. One of her most notable contributions came as chair of the Board of Trustees Governance Working Group, which led to a unanimous vote in favour of changes to the Royal Charter that permitted a reduction in the size of the Board of Trustees and opened the door to the possibility of a reformed and revitalized 카지노게임사이트 Council.
While serving as chair of the Grant Hall Society, she inspired fellow alumni to give back to the university and worked to expand the society카지노 게임 컬렉션s membership and recruited many new volunteers. Today, Ms. Macmillan serves on the Advisory Board of the Agnes Etherington Art Centre, which she says allows her to be surrounded by great art and artists.
After graduating with an economics degree from Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s, Ms. Macmillan earned a Master of Arts in Economics from the 카지노게임사이트 of Alberta. She had a successful career in economic trade policy that included positions with the Canada West Foundation, the C.D. Howe Institute, and the Canadian International Trade Tribunal, before moving back to Ottawa.
It was during her student days at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s where she discovered her love for economics. 카지노 게임 컬렉션Many alumni look back very fondly at their times at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s. The friendships they made, the professors who influenced them. It was a special time of life. Returning to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s with my sons reminded me how important (the university) was to me. Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s welcomed me back with open arms,카지노 게임 컬렉션 said Ms. Macmillan, who also received the Distinguished Service Award from 카지노게임사이트 Council in 2011.
Chancellor Emeritus David Dodge, Arts카지노 게임 컬렉션65, LLD카지노 게임 컬렉션02, is giving a tribute speech at the Agnes Benidickson Award reception in Ottawa on May 16. Dr. Dodge and Ms. Macmillan both live and work in Ottawa, where they are prominent figures in the city카지노 게임 컬렉션s public policy community.
카지노 게임 컬렉션Katie has made an outstanding contribution to Canada through her work on international trade; to Ottawa through her support for local voluntary organizations; and most of all to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s through her many years of service,카지노 게임 컬렉션 says Dr. Dodge, who received the Agnes Benidickson Award in 2009.
