Margaret Fulton on January 22, 2014 at the age of 91, on her beloved Salt Spring Island. Margaret was born in Birtle, Manitoba on September 8th, 1922, as the seventh and youngest child of Ernest and Ethel Fulton. She subsequently spent seven years teaching at Waterloo Lutheran University before accepting a position as Dean of Women at UBC in 1974. In 1978 Margaret became the President of Mount Saint Vincent University in Halifax until 1986. From 1986 to 1996, she was an Adjunct Professor at UBC. She holds 15 honorary degrees, an Officer in the Order of Canada, and holds the Governor General's "Commemoration of Persons" Award. Margaret was a well-known Canadian educator, administrator, social activist, feminist and volunteer. She has been recognized both nationally and internationally for her efforts in women's education and more recently for seniors' health serving as Chair of the Seniors' Advisory Committee to the Ministry of Health in BC. She was a Vice-Chair of the Women's World Summit Foundation, Geneva, an NGO committed to further education, health and equality for rural women. Much in demand as a consultant on government and university committees and as a keynote speaker and conference panelist, Margaret challenged myths and misperceptions surrounding the education and role of women. She has been the subject of a full length documentary, A Round Peg, and of a full length book biography by Dr. James Doyle called, Transformations: The Life of Margaret Fulton, Canadian Feminist, Educator and Social Activist (ECW Press, 2006). A Celebration of Life for Margaret will be held at the Salt Spring United Church (111 Hereford Ave, Ganges) at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, February 8th.
