Vancouver native RANDY
MACKOFF completed his BA and
MA in criminology at U.B.C., but
his ten years spent as a constable in
the Vancouver Police Department
provided him with a topic for his
doctoral thesis. “Through my job I
came into contact with many vic-
tims of crime, and I became aware
that research was needed to help
victims of crime to cope,” he says.
When finished, he will be the first
police officer in Canada to doa
PhD while on the force. He’s taken
a leave of absence to continue his
research, and to take up his posi-
tion as Criminology Instructor at
Douglas College. m

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Music has always meant a lot to me,”
says JOHN GLOFCHESKIE, who com-
pleted Bachelor and Masters degrees at the
University of Western Ontario before
going to Cambridge to do a PhD in Music
History. His interests range from C.P.E.
Bach (J.S. Bach’s son) to Alban Berg but, he
says, “My specialty is Schubert, and how
one should play Schubert in an authentic
style.” Glofcheskie spent the past six years
at St. Catharine’s College teaching music
theory and history, and the past four years
in charge of the music program there,
before taking up his new position as Music
Instructor here at Douglas College. He’s
glad to be here because, as he says,
“There’s a very good atmosphere here.” ™

 

 

 

 

LARRY HANNANT became a his-
torian because he is fascinated by change.
“I'm trying to get my students to under-
stand the critical cusp when change occurs,
which is why the twentieth century is so in-
teresting,” he says. Born and raised in Cal-
Larry Hannant photo gary, Alberta, he completed his BA at the
unavailable. University of Calgary and his MA at the
University of Waterloo in 1981. After
several years of teaching at the Loyalist
College of Applied Arts & Technology in
Ontario and some freelance writing, he
began work on a PhD at U.B.C. in 1985.
Hannant is History Instructor at Douglas
College while continuing work on his doc-
toral thesis, which is an examination of the
Canadian Security Intelligence Service and
its screening system.
