for ourselves
Always conscious
of the need to preserve our heritage,
the University does what it can to support those of like
mind. That is why it was not at all difficult to select artist
and historian
Adrian Camps-Campins
to be one of
the eight people to be conferred with honorary degrees
during the graduation ceremonies for the St Augustine
campus in October this year.
Mr Camps-Campins
has devoted a significant part
of his life to researching the history of Trinidad and
Tobago and has paid special attention to its architecture,
which he has reproduced beautifully in his still growing
collection of postcards that are simply marvelous
collector’s items. As we begin preparations for those
special ceremonies that send our family members
out into the world, we share some of the ideas of our
honorary graduands from
