Katz Excellence in Teaching Award. His dedication to teaching is not only obvious to all of the students that have passed through his classroom but to all of his fellow teachers. He hails from a true ƻ����Ժ family, his dad was a professor, him and his wife graduated from ƻ����Ժ in ’83 and two of his three children have studied at ƻ����Ժ. From the very beginning of his career as a Dentist he knew that he wanted to do his part in giving back to the ƻ����Ժ community. Currently, he maintains a full-time private practice in Montreal West and is the Course Director for Restorative Dentistry. He sat down with me to discuss his love of teaching and to reflect on his years with the Faculty. <strong><a href="http://publications.mcgill.ca/dentistry/2015/05/05/797/">Read the full interview here.</a></strong> Tue, 05 May 2015 17:26:37 +0000 Brenna Kaukonen 1954 at /dentistry
