Timepiece - Graduation

Then and Now

By Hilary Thomson

Cartoons of sharks, elephants, birds and the signatures of hundreds of graduating zoology students cover the ceiling in HutB8 on Main Mall. The knowledgeable autograph hound can spot names of grads who are now eminent scientists at UBC and around the world. The ceiling will be preserved and re-installed in the new Beaty Biodiversity Research Centre, expected to open in November 2007.
