T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Way To Convert Rows To Columns

I work with SQLite and need to write a query the old school way to convert rows to columns. If it was MS SQL I would use pivot to get the expected result. However this is SQLite I cannot use pivot.

Sample data:

create table t1 (id int, Dept char (1), Total int);
insert t1
select 1, 'A', 100
union
select 2, 'B', 120
union
select 3, 'C', 140
union
select 4, 'D', 150;

How do I use LEFT OUTER JOIN to produce result similar to the below?

SELECT 'Total' AS Dept,
[A], [B], [C], [D]
from

[code]....
