Mathematics Centre

 It was not until 1979 that mathematics at Concordia had a permanent home. For many years the subject was taught either in spare rooms or in a ‘temporary’ building.
The much-awaited opening of a new Mathematics Centre took place on July 22. But it was such a bleak and rainy day, that all ceremonies took place inside the new building itself.
The architect, Mr. N. Drogemuller, formally presented the key to the principal, Rev. T. Reuther. After the principal had opened the doors, Senator Jessop unveiled a plaque with the inscription: Great is our Lord, and abundant in power; his understanding is beyond measure (Psalm 147:5).
However, the interior was not quite finished, so eager staff and students had to wait three weeks before they could finally occupy the building.
