University College: A Portrait, 1853-1953 in Bloomington, MN

For a century University College has had a profound and continuous influence on the cultural development of Canada. The authors of this volume show us University College as a political and educational institution; as a physical structure that has aroused admiration and scholarly curiosity; as the home of a long line of great teachers and scholars, and of a student body diverse in its origins and spirited in its attitudes; and finally, as the embodiment of an educational idea that transcends curricula and prescriptions.
