It was an extraordinary experience! A motor coach
was provided to transport the committee from one Ontario
university to another to hear the various proposals.
We travelled comfortably to Ottawa, Kingston, London,
Hamilton, Toronto, among others, in a trip that was well
organized by Sandra Valeriote and Sue Embro. It included
hotel accommodation for several days as required. In addition
to Committee members, there were several other people on the
bus trip, which has since become legendary:
1. Jerrold Marsden, University of California, Berkeley, first
Director of the Fields Institute
2. Bill Shadwick, University of Waterloo, first Deputy
Director of the Fields Institute
3. Dana Sally, Librarian, University of West Virginia;
Consultant on Mathematical Libraries
