2012 University of Saskatchewan Faculty Club Candidate Bios
John Clarke
One of the first things John did after being hired by the University Library was to join the Faculty Club. John enjoys meeting people, holding meetings, and socializing at the club. While attending the last AGM John was pleased to note the name change from Faculty to University Club (which will be effective July 1st) , and which he believes more accurately reflects the intent and membership of the club.
John’s education includes an Associate Arts degree in English Literature, a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of California, a Bachelor of Education in Social Studies from the University of Regina, and a Master of Science in Business Administration from Boston University.
John would look forward to working on the board to broaden both the membership and the activities available at the Club.
