Students will have a chance to pick up cheap tickets to Canada’s best known environmentalist when David Suzuki speaks at Convocation Hall in two weeks’ time.
Suzuki will be addressing “The Environment and the Challenges of the 21st Century.” He is known best as the host of CBC’s The Nature of Things and as author of several best-selling books.
Suzuki is more than just a populizer, however, having received acclaim for his scientific work, starting when he was named the outstanding research scientist under 35 from 1969 to 1972.
For his work he has earned 15 honourary degrees and been named a member of the Order of Canada. He is known as a captivating speaker. Tickets can be purchased by students for $10 at the Students’ Administrative Council building, 12 Hart House Circle, starting on Monday, March 18.
The event is presented by SAC and the Faculty of Arts and Science, and is a production of the campus club Synthesis’ speaking series.
