C.B. "Bud" Johnston
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
C.B. "Bud" Johnston (June 3, 1931 – October 24, 2003)[1][2][3] was born and raised in the community of Creighton Mine near Sudbury. He later attended the University of Western Ontario, where he joined the Delta Upsilon fraternity. He received an HBA degree (Honours Business Administration) in 1954 and an MBA in 1957. He was Associate Dean from 1975 to 1978 and Dean of the Western Business School (now called the Richard Ivey School of Business) from 1978 to 1989. He continued to teach (and win teaching awards) until he retired in 1997.
"Bud" and his wife Carol were also active in the community and, in fact, the Business Library is not the only facility bearing his name. Carol was the founder of the London Children's Museum in 1973 and is still actively involved (as she is with the "Bud" Johnston Library). The new atrium space at the Museum was named "Carol and "Bud" Johnston's Atrium of Excellent Adventures".[4]
