John William Tranter Spinks served as the University of Saskatchewan’s fourth President. Published two years before the end of his term, “A Decade of Change” offers a history of the University under his direction. Rather than tracking the University’s growth from his own personal perspective, Spinks relies on annual reports, financial records, statistics, charts, and graphs, providing a robust and factual account of developments and challenges throughout the 1960s. Throughout, he offers an administrative gloss on the history documented.
