SEPTEMBER’S OP/ED FOCUS ON THE EMMA LAKE KENDERDINE CAMPUS
The Saskatchewan Arts Alliance thinks it’s high time for the university to dust off the Kenderdine file and move it to the front burner. Editor of SAA’s Op/Ed, Marcus Miller, asked two people with close ties to the campus to speak to the situation. This month’s Op/Ed features Gordon Barnhart, Interim President + Vice-Chancellor, U of S as well as artist and art reviewer Marsha DeLouchery-Day.
