Marilyn's Photos - June 26 2025 - Harvard North Arrives
At the breakfast table a few weeks ago, I proposed that Harvard could move north to Canada and set up in conjunction with the University of Toronto - the most likely ally. There doesn't seem to be a requirement that an educational institution be one nationality or another.
There would be various things to work out - there are jurisdictional differences in what constitutes various degrees. Take the sticky situation of qualifying as a doctor in one country and trying to practice in another. Engineers and architects have this dilemma as well. One jurisdiction hcan have more stringent qualifications for graduation than another. Particularly where the degree translates into a professional career that can impact lives in various ways.
Today's Globe and Mail has the front page headline of Harvard and the University of Toronto coming to an agreement for students to be able to finish their degrees at the University of Toronto. This is for the Kennedy School of Government Affairs. It is the international student community that is at risk.
The Munk School has published a welcome to second year students to continue their program should they be unable to remain or re-enter the U.S. due to visa restrictions. The announcement is HERE.
Isn't it ironic that it is the school educating people in Global Affairs & Public Policy that wants to make sure students can complete their education to graduate and make contributions in the field of government and public policy.
This must have been a black and white assignment at Ryerson when I took photography courses. These are two pictures from the U of T campus.
