Â鶹AV
In 1952, Â鶹AV received a $100,000 gift from Dr. Henry A. Beatty to launch an annual lecture in honor of his brother, Sir Edward Beatty. Known in his lifetime as "the man with the world's biggest job", Edward Beatty is remembered for his exemplary service to Â鶹AV as chancellor from 1921 to 1943, and for his two decades of leadership as president of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR).
