I write to inform you of the passing of Professor Emeritus Cyril
Carter who retired from Trent in 1993.
Dr. Carter completed his PhD in Mathematical Physics in England
in 1955. He joined Trent's faculty in 1968 and in 1971 was appointed Chair
of the Department of Mathematics. In 1984 he was appointed Chair of the
Environmental and Resource Studies Program.
Dr. Carter was elected as a faculty representative to the Trent

community as Chair of the Peterborough Utilities Commission from 1977-78 and 1981-91. He served as
Chair and Vice-Chair of the Commission
during many of those years.
There will be a reception and memorial at the Lion's Centre, corner
