The ��Ѹ��Դ��߿�Ƭ of Lethbridge Board of Governors recently approved the appointment of alumnus Douglas (Doug) Spoulos, CA, (BMgt '87) as the new Associate Vice-President (Finance).

Spoulos follows Karen Clearwater, CA, who is retiring as the Associate Vice-President (Financial Planning) after a 24-year career at the U of L.

"We are very pleased to have Doug back at the ��Ѹ��Դ��߿�Ƭ and in the community," says Nancy Walker, the U of L's Vice-President, Finance and Administration.

"As a former Lethbridge resident, a U of L graduate and also as a former employee, he knows our ��Ѹ��Դ��߿�Ƭ environment well, and also brings a wealth of knowledge from his public and private sector experiences."

Spoulos, a Charted Accountant since 1992, was most recently the Vice-President, Finance and Administration at Sigma Explorations Inc., a Calgary-based geophysical data service provider with five business divisions.

He has significant additional experience working with national and international publicly–traded manufacturing firms, previous experience at the ��Ѹ��Դ��߿�Ƭ of Lethbridge as the Manager, Research and Trust funds, and with the local KPMG office as a Chartered Accountant, Auditor and Manager.

Spoulos says he is looking forward to returning to Lethbridge for a variety of reasons, in addition to the position at the U of L.

"I was born and raised in Lethbridge and all my family still lives there. My wife, Bev, is also from Lethbridge. Our son is currently attending the
U of L, and our two daughters are just entering junior high. I really enjoyed my first time at the U of L - it has a great atmosphere and great people."

Spoulos begins his new position on April 11, 2011. Clearwater will be retiring from her position on June 30, 2011 but will remain at the ��Ѹ��Դ��߿�Ƭ until the end of the year as the project manager of the Student Recruitment and Retention Project.
