Feildian to Receive Honorary Degree

Dr. E. David Morgan

Dr. E. David Morgan will be honored in St. John's, May 25 at 10:00 AM with an honourary degree from his former alma mater Memorial University of Newfoundland. Dr. Morgan spent most of his academic life at Keele University at Newcastle-under-Lyme where he worked on insect pests and insect pheromones.

David Morgan came to Feild in Grade 7 from St. George's School in St. John's. In Grade 8 he won a form prize worth $2.50. He told me in an email that he and his pals loved to play "Piddly" and in the spring the back grounds would be littered with piddly sticks and bricks. Even I can remember playing piddly during recess at Feild.

I am hoping that if David is in town for our lunch on the 30th. May at The Sundance I will get him to join us for a bite to eat and some chat about his time at Feild.
