E.M. (Ted) Culliton, University Chancellor, wearing an academic gown and mortarboard.
Bio/Historical Note: Born in 1906 in East Grand Forks, Minnesota, Edward Milton (Ted) Culliton grew up in Elbow, Saskatchewan. He earned a BA from the University of Saskatchewan in 1926 and an LLD in 1928. In 1935 Culliton was elected as a Liberal Member of the Saskatchewan Legislature representing the constituency of Gravelbourg and was re-elected in 1938. He served as provincial secretary from 1938-1941. In 1941 Culliton resigned to serve with the Royal Canadian Army. He retained his seat in the legislature as a Minister without portfolio. During his absence, the Liberal administration was defeated by the CCF in 1944. Returning from the war Culliton returned to his law practice. He ran for the leadership of the Liberal party in 1946, losing to Walter A. Tucker. He was elected again in 1948 as an MLA. From 1951-1962 he was a Justice of the Saskatchewan Court of Appeal and from 1962-1981 was Chief Justice of Saskatchewan. From 1965-1968 he was Chancellor of the U of S. Culliton left politics and chaired the committee overseeing the province's 50th anniversary celebration in 1955. As a judge he articulated the four factors to be considered in sentencing: deterrence, rehabilitation, punishment and protection of the public. Culliton was made a Companion of the Order of Canada (1981) and was awarded the Saskatchewan Order of Merit (1988). He was made a Knight Commander of the Order of St. Gregory the Great by Pope Paul VI in 1973. In 1974 he was inducted as a builder into the Canadian Curling Hall of Fame. Ted Culliton died on 14 March 1991 in Regina.
