Greetings from CCDAHSS (Edmonton 2014)

Deans of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences faculties are meeting in Edmonton currently.  Items on the agenda include Prioritization, Budgeting, Collective Bargaining, etc.

As a welcome to U of A, the deans were given a guided tour of the MacTaggart collection of Chinese imperial robes, prints, and scrolls.  The collection is a most generous gift to U of A, and the ways in which the material objects have been integrated into research and pedagogy is to be noted and commended.
