摘　　要：William Watt Hutchison, “Hutch” to his many friends around the world, was a Scots-born Canadian geologist who served Canada and the IUGS in myriad dynamic and creative ways. Most notably, he served as the IUGS Secretary General （1976-1980） at a pivotal time in its history, and as lUGS President （1984-1987）. The same boundless energy, enthusiasm, skill in communications, and ability to foster team- work that characterized his work with the IUGS also carried him to preeminent scientific administrative positions in the Canadian Government, where he served as Director General of the Geological Survey of Canada and as Assistant Deputy Minister of Earth Sciences. His distinguished career was terminated in 1987 by his untimely death at the age of 52, following a painful struggle with cancer.
