Alec Aitken: Master Teacher Award Master Teacher Award Winner. Fall 2003 alec aitken. Eminent Chancellor, I amvery pleased to present the Master Teacher Award to Professor alec aitken. http://www.usask.ca/communications/awards/aitken.shtml
Extractions: Alec Aitken The Master Teacher Award was established to emphasize the importance of teaching at the University of Saskatchewan, to recognize and to honour those faculty members who excel in teaching. The Selection Committee has named Professor Alec Aitken of the Department of Geography to be the recipient of this prestigious award at this Convocation. Professor Aitken earned his Bachelor of Science in Geography and Biology at Queen's University in 1980 and his Ph.D. at McMaster University in 1987, joining the Department of Geography at this university in 1994; he was promoted to Associate Professor the following year. Professor Aitken has a comprehensive knowledge of his discipline and has demonstrated excellence in research, publishing regularly in the leading journals in physical geography, geology, and earth sciences. More significantly for this award, Professor Aitken has demonstrated superior teaching at a variety of levels and to many groups. As measured by student evaluations, Alec is consistently assessed as the best professor in his department. An exhaustive evaluation by one of his peers concludes: "My teaching evaluation and review of course materials confirmed a clear sense I had gained in my conversations with students over the years - Professor Aitken is an excellent instructor with a great commitment both to his area of research and to teaching." "Professors like Alec are an asset to this university," writes one of his students. Other students support this judgement in their written comments: "It has been a pleasure being in this class." "I appreciated that the instructor would volunteer his time to take the class on field trips." "It's nice to get a prof every once in a while who loves what he's teaching." "He gets excited about what he teaches which is rare lately." "I give Dr. Aitken and the course top marks!" "He is the best professor the Geography Department has to offer, and one of the best I have ever had." "It was refreshing to have a professor who displayed such dynamism while teaching." Added to these commendations, students consistently call Alec's classes "important." "This class was the best, most interesting class that I have ever taken."
Bethlehem Steel Soccer Club -- October 31, 1925 Battles, Jock Drummond, Andy aitken, alec Ralsbeck, Jack Robertson, Johnny Campbell and alec Smith were making the world http://www.geocities.com/bethlehem_soccer/gl103125.html
Extractions: Although spending his second season in British Isles soccer, local fans have not yet forgotten the brilliancy of Alex Jackson when he sported the colors of Bethlehem on the Steel Workers' front line and can readily understand why critics marvel at his skill and hail him as the greatest overseas soccer find of the past several seasons. Among the publications that reach this desk, one comes from abroad, the Sports Post, paying tribute to young Jackson with the following: "There can be no doubt that Jackson's early travels broadened his ideas and his ability. Experience is the hardest taskmaster of all, so that it was no surprise that when he returned from America in 1925 that he should be snapped up by Aberdeen and that he should play for his native country in all three International matches last season his first real effort in Scottish League football. Nor is it surprising that Herbert Chapman, regarded him as a player who, at 20 years, was worth any money for a team like Huddersfield Town. The writer has never heard the exact amount Huddersfield Town paid for Jackson, but it is known that another club offered Aberdeen 4,500 pounds for him an offer which was refused. It need not, of course, be inferred that Huddersfield necessarily paid more than, or even as much as, that amount. "What is this youthful prodigy like? Well, he's tall, straight as a cane; but with the resiliency of a young willow tree; when football breezes blow his way, Jackson bends to the work that is brought for him to do. One moment he is tall, straight, subdued; the next he is a thing of grace, of action, of fire, of he's just alive with every mortal picture which shows activity. He's light, too, as a player he lacks poundage. He doesn't turn a beam at much over ten stone, and he's slender. But he is like a kitten on his toes.
YourYukon: Researchers Look At Life On The Arctic Edge alec aitken wants to understand more about creatures that can survive such difficult conditions aitken, a University of Saskatchewan geographer, is part of an international research http://www.taiga.net/yourYukon/col335.html
Extractions: It's a hard life for creatures that live at the bottom of the Beaufort Sea off the Yukon North Slope. In some areas of the Beaufort, winter ice reaches all the way to the sea bottom. As the ice is pushed by winds, tides, and the forces of its own freezing, it scours the sea floor, wreaking havoc on the animals that live there. In other areas, the sea ice stays clear of the sea bed, but cuts bottom-dwelling organisms off from the supply of food available during open-water season. Alec Aitken wants to understand more about creatures that can survive such difficult conditions, and the processes that keep them going. Aitken, a University of Saskatchewan geographer, is part of an international research team taking part in a year-long study of Canada's arctic seas. The researchers involved in the multimillion-dollar Canadian Arctic Shelf Exchange Study (CASES) will be based aboard the Canadian icebreaker Franklin, which has been refitted as a research vessel. The 12 months of the study voyage, from September 2003 to September 2004, are broken into nine "legs" involving different kinds of research and different researchers. The research team Aitken leads will be on board for six of those legs. He and his colleagues and students will be spending their time digging up samples of the sea bed at about 20 stations situated across the Mackenzie Shelf and Amundsen Gulf.

Extractions: Alec Aitken 's family on his father's side were from Scotland, and on his mother's side were from England. Alec's mother, Elizabeth Towers, emigrated with her family to New Zealand from Wolverhampton, England, when she was eight years old. Alexander Aitken, Alec's grandfather on his father's side, had emigrated from Lanarkshire in Scotland to Otago in New Zealand in 1868, and began farming near Dunedin. Alec's father, William Aitken, was one of his fourteen children and William began his working life on his father's farm. However he gave this up and became a grocer in Dunedin. William and Elizabeth had seven children, Alec being the eldest. He attended the Otago Boys' High School in Dunedin, where he was head boy in 1912, winning a scholarship to Otago University which he entered in 1913. Surprisingly, although he had amazed his school friends and teachers with his incredible memory, he had shown no special mathematical abilities at school. He began to study languages and mathematics at university with the intention of becoming a school teacher but his university career was interrupted by World War I. In 1915 he enlisted in the New Zealand Expeditionary Force and served in Gallipoli, Egypt, and France, being wounded at the battle of the Somme. His war experiences were to haunt him for the rest of his life. After three months in hospital in Chelsea, London, he was sent back to New Zealand in 1917. The following year he returned to his university studies, graduating in 1920 with First Class Honours in French and Latin but only Second Class Honours in mathematics in which he had no proper instruction. In the year he graduated, Aitken married Mary Winifred Betts who was a botany lecturer at Otago University. They had two children, a girl and a boy.
