Matt Soar (CTR, April 21) points out that he is not an associate professor in Communication Studies, but an assistant professor. We apologize

Moreover, University Archivist Nancy Marrelli points out that the article about John Ivor Smith in that issue was in error in saying that that Professor Smith was the first sculpture teacher at Concordia.

That distinction belongs to Orson Wheeler, who spent 55 years at Sir George Williams and its successor institution. He started teaching at the School of Art in 1931, and taught what appears to be the first sculpture course that was part of university-level courses at Sir George.

Marrelli writes, “Orson Wheeler was a familiar and well-known figure on the SGW campus until his death in 1990. The image gallery

on the Archives website,
http://archives3.concordia.ca/Privatefonds/P067.html, includes a photograph of him with one of the busts of SGW principals that he did and that are on display in the southeast corner of the Hall Building lobby.

“We can celebrate and remember both these noted sculptors and the contributions they have made to Concordia.”
