A. in English and History in 1955. He went to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar and achieved his M. A. in 1957. He returned to Canada and took teaching positions at Canadian Services College, Royal Roads University, United College in Winnipeg and between 1959-1960 he worked in the Department of Political Science at the University of Manitoba. He achieved his Ph. D from the University of Toronto in 1965. He began teaching at the University of British Columbia in 1962, and served as the Head of the Political Science from October 1969 until his resignation in 1973. At that point he took a position at the University of Victoria. Walter Young contributed numerous talents to a variety of departmental, faculty and university enterprises. He was one of the organizers of the Arts I programme and, with Margaret Prang, launched the major academic journal dealing with the history, politics and society of British Columbia, B.C. Studies. He was elected to the committee on long-range prospects of the University, and served on the Board of Directors of the UBC Press. In 1969 he was elected to the Senate by the Joint Faculties. Professor Young's research interests focussed on the CCF party, on which he wrote the definitive history. He devoted a life-long interest to the NDP party in this province and in the country. He was an active participant in NDP party affairs, and in 1974 chaired the University Government Committee whose report to the Minister of Education led to the creation of the Universities Council.
