No full textNorthwestern College of Fergus Fails was founded 1900 and formally opened January 3, 1901. Its history is therefore very brief having begun with the present century. After a very careful deliberation it was finally located in Fergus Fails, Minn., and through the munificent gift of Hon. J. B. Cutler of a block of land, the College has a most imposing site on a hill about half a mile from the center of the city. Another block was added by
purchase in 1902. The first building, erected during the fall of 1900, was ready for occupancy at the opening of the school in January 1901

Fergus Heron: common measure
Full text linkThe Front View is pleased to present the first solo show of Fergus Heron’s photography. The beauty in Fergus’s pictures are hidden in plain view. Fergus deliberately avoids the obviously spectacular, exotic or sublime, and is committed to exploring what is familiar, recognising and contemplating it differently through his photography. His central artistic concerns are ‘with making visible connections, discontinuities and tensions between landscape and architecture, nature and artifice, the traditional and the modern. This makes his work particularly poignant, as present day austerity measures unravel our profligate past he reminds us of our common inheritance, waiting for us to reacquaint ourselves with what is our quintessential nature. If the future looks like the past then Fergus is ahead of the curve. For the last decade Fergus has been slowly, steadily and meticulously developing an ongoing evolving body of work that reminds us that we do not have to travel far to witness the intense wonderment that is present in our everyday surroundings, and yet apparently absent in our perception of it. Fergus’s orientation of urban and rural England acts as a guide. From some distant shore we resurface on this island coastline and travel through the night on our sparsely lit motorways until we arrive at our common land; our home.

Climate change and equity
Full text linkThe Gavin Mooney Memorial Essay Competition honours the work and memory of the late Professor Gavin Mooney, a health economist who was a tireless advocate for social justice in local, national and international arenas.
Launched in 2013, the competition seeks to draw public attention to social justice and health equity concerns, and to recognise the public-interest value of writing and writers.
The inaugural competition called for essays on the theme of climate change and equity, in recognition of the work of Professor Mooney’s late partner Dr Delys Weston. Each year the competition will call for entries related to a theme around equity and social justice.
Sydney GP Dr Tim Senior took out the inaugural 2013 prize with his essay “Climate Change and Equity: Whose Language Is It Anyway?”. The judges said the winning entry challenges the language of climate change activism, and also incorporates the voices of those who are most likely to be affected by climate change.
The four runner-up entries are by Steve Campbell and Lucie Rychetnik, Oscar McLaren, Peter Boyer and Dora Marinova, and Fergus Green
