"We are sincerely honoured to name our new student council chamber after Roy Romanow," said USSU President Chris Stoicheff. "In his role as a former student council President and a Premier of Saskatchewan, he has made substantive contributions to this university, province and country."
Mr. Romanow, a senior policy fellow in the U of S Department of History, was on hand at the ceremony that took place prior to the Thursday meeting of the University Student Council.
"Saskatchewan university student leaders tackle extremely important and complex duties in advancing the interests and concerns of all students. In doing so, they demonstrate a deep commitment to constantly improving the University of Saskatchewan experience of our students, and thus, the university itself," said Mr. Romanow. "I am also confident that the USSU will produce future leaders who will greatly contribute to improving Canada's society, a tradition for which the U of S is already widely recognized. I am extremely honoured by this recognition, one that carries deep personal meaning."
