Partial excerpt of the EIC citation.....
"Mr. Jin is a graduate of Memorial University with an
engineering career covering design, construction and rehabilitation
of civil/structural projects. He has provided tireless and dedicated
leadership to the development of the Canadian Society of Civil
Engineers for Newfoundland, and has developed continuing
education, membership and fund raising concepts adopted at the national level
of CSCE. The development of CSCE in Newfoundland and Labrador owes
much to the dedication, enthusiasm and commitment of Gordon Jin.
Similarly he has been active with the Association of Professional
Engineers and Geoscientists of Newfoundland as a volunteer on
numerous committees, with particular reference to aiding and
developing students and young engineers and Engineers-in-Training......
Gordon Jin truly represents the ideal of the CP Medal recipient for
service and leadership in the branch and regional levels of the EIC
and its constituent societies."
