Professor Emeritus
|
B.A. (Mount Holyoke), M.A. (Cairo), M.A., Ph.D. (McMaster).
At the June 10, 2005 Convocation Ceremony Dr. Clark Jones was honoured with the title Professor Emeritus.
Melissa Clark-Jones, who retired July 2003, had been in a commuting marriage with Sean Jones for most of her career at Bishop's University, which began in 1980. So, it was with mixed emotions that she left Bishop's and took up permanent residence with him in Greenwich Village, New York City. (All indications are that this new proximity has improved, rather than endangered, the relationship.) They maintain a second home in Lennoxville and visit friends and colleagues there frequently.
She is the author of the book, "A Staple State: Canadian Industrial Resources in Cold War", Toronto University Press, 1987, which was based on her Ph.D dissertation at McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario. Having presented and published a variety of papers on film, women's studies, and Canadian political economy and culture, she most recently co-authored an annotated bibliography, published by the Eastern Townships Research Centre at Bishop's, entitled, "Globalization and the Single-Industry Town", 2004. She continues to review grant applications for Canadian researchers in cultural and gender-related sociological work and to be a reader for graduate theses and a writer of recommendations for former students doing grad school and other applications.
Melissa writes: "New York City is a truly 'wonderful town' for people-watching, politics, film, art, opera, and walking". Melissa and Sean continue to ride horses together nearby. When colleagues and students are passing through NYC, they are welcomed in a lively exchange of news and ideas. Melissa also writes that: "One of the delights of retirement is having the time for all of this exciting "play", including devouring the New York Times every morning at breakfast-- a most satisfying repast! Hearing from former colleagues and students is an enduring pleasure."
She can be contacted at: 140 Charles Street, Apt 7D, New York, N.Y. 10014. E-mail her at: MelissaClarkJones@mac.com Or call: 646-206-1991 or 212-989-6724.
