    These individuals lack a theoretical framework and rely solely on data-driven approaches. This effort seems to be an attempt to demonstrate the significance of their field, with no other substance.

    Thank you so much, Margaret. Uncle Walter gifted $250,000 in his will to build a stand-alone library to complement Massey College, which was built for grad students. Walter died in 1962. His brother Bob opened the door in 1964. Both are depicted under the eaves on the north side of the building.

    Jim Cuddy is a national treasure. His music was the backdrop to our lives growing up in Canada. I wish he was given an honorary degree when I graduated from UofT in 2005. I'm thrilled he was honored in this way; very well deserved and what a great song to sing at this moment. Wonderful advice too for the graduating class.

    UofT is very harsh to their undergrads, the extreme low marks they dish out to people essentially blocked people from perusing their masters. They then turn around and accept people with artificially higher marks from other universities who give out high averages. So for that I think U of T is a school that destroys first chances and give second chances to other less qualified students. So the lesson is don't go to U of T for your undergrad go to a easy school and do grad school at U of T.
