From http://www.law.ubc.ca/news/2005/oct/10_24_2005_curtis.html

It is with great sorrow that the Faculty of Law announces the passing of our founding dean, Dean Emeritus George F. Curtis.

To many, Dean Curtis is the Faculty of Law. He started the UBC Faculty of Law in 1948 and remained dean until his retirement in 1971. He saw the school through some very difficult times – classes taught in borrowed army huts, no resources for faculty members, law books, or a library. But he would not let this deter him. Through his vision, energy and perseverance he literally built the Faculty of Law into an internationally renowned school that has graduated some of the best legal minds in Canada and the world. Even in retirement, Dean Curtis was still an active member of our legal community, coming to campus each day to meet with students, collaborate with faculty and to do what he loved most, teach law. Dean Curtis will be fondly remembered and greatly missed.

Dean Emeritus George F. Curtis passed away peacefully on October 23, 2005 at the age of 99. Memorial services are being planned and will be announced shortly.
