TRIBUTE Tribute to Dr. Alfred Sangster, OJ - Kenneth Morgan - President of C.A.S.T. Students’ Union 1970/71

He was simply a humble, caring human being but who, in the eyes of many, was GREAT. No doubt he put the College of Arts, Science and Technology/UTech, Ja., on the “map of the world”. His performance was exceptional and made us, his students very proud. My family and I express our deepest condolences to his family. We are assured that he will be met with smiles, lots of love and appreciation on the other side. His years were many (95), no small achievement, - but his work was even greater. Thank You Doc. “Rest Well”. Kenneth Morgan President of C.A.S.T. Students’ Union 1970/71

I met Dr. Sangster (Principal), in my final year at the College of Arts, Science and Technology (C.A.S.T.), which then, was his first year, and I worked closely with him in my capacity as President of the Students’ Union. This was a period when students were making lots of demands but Doc was never troubled. To know him was to love, admire and respect him. Regardless of how busy he was, he always made time for you and willingly gave guidance. He was a transitional leader. In his capacity as Principal he soon realized that the quality and standard of work coming out of the college was on par with other universities, and so he embarked on the task; the end result, he transitioned from the Principal of C.A.S.T. to President of University of Technology (UTech, Ja.).
