Celebrating the 150th anniversary of the first Mount Allison graduate from Bermuda

The Bermuda Chapter has 172 active alumni and is celebrating a special anniversary in 2017. It is the 150th anniversary of the first Mount Allison graduate from Bermuda 鈥 James F. Cardy.

The Bermuda chapter has remained a close-knit one with Island Allisonians welcoming many visitors from the University over the years. Various Mountie sports teams have travelled to Bermuda annually for training and advice from Allisonians, including the men鈥檚 and women鈥檚 soccer teams, swimming, and men鈥檚 rugby.

The 2009 men鈥檚 soccer team trip to Bermuda celebrated 50 years of soccer at Mount Allison, honouring Dr. Clarence 鈥淭essie鈥 Terceira (鈥49) who, as a student, established soccer at Mount Allison.

Jack and Lisa Rhind, both graduates of the class of 1974, have stayed involved with their alma mater across the miles. The Rhinds have helped with both alumni events and recruiting; held student/parent events at their home; and received the Charles Frederick Allison Award and The 痳豆TV视频 Federated Alumni Association Award in honour of their work.

This commitment is one demonstrated by many Bermudians, including the late Ralph Marshall (鈥50), Bermudian politician, architect, and civil engineer, and the late Bob Barritt (鈥50), former Bermuda Member of Parliament and senator. Marshall and Barritt established the Barritt-Marshall Award, an award for international students at Mount Allison, many years ago and remained involved with the University for more than 50 years. Barritt also donated several pieces of his artwork to Mount Allison, which are proudly displayed in the Owens Art Gallery and the Wallace McCain Student Centre on campus.

All alumni are invited to help celebrate our Bermuda connections with a special Mount Allison cruise to Bermuda June 4-11, 2017. See  for details.
