I didn't expect much when my buddy insisted we visit the University of Toronto's downtown campus,…read morebut what unfolded was unexpectedly moving. Born and raised in Scarborough, and having spent so much time in downtown Toronto over the years, I thought I knew the city. But walking through U of T's historic grounds stirred up memories I didn't even know I had. There's something about that campus, especially Trinity College, that feels timeless. My grandfather studied there, and while I don't have any clear recollection of ever visiting as a child, standing among those buildings sparked something deep. The architecture is stunning--stoic, storied, and soaked in a quiet reverence. It felt like the kind of place where knowledge has lived for centuries, and where you can feel the presence of the past. At one point, I came across a walkway near the clock tower, and right there was an inscription of Archangel Michael. I hadn't expected it, but it felt perfectly placed--as if the moment had been waiting for me. I sat for a while, just taking it all in, and while my friend may never fully understand the weight of what I felt, I left that campus with something more than just a tourist memory. I hope U of T never loses that energy--that spirit. It's more than a campus. For some of us, it's a portal.

It is both and…read moreacademic temple, but also a "city in the city" closely connected with the city, combining a strong historical background and modern vitality. Entering the campus, it seems that an architectural history book has been opened: the neo-Roman-style University College and the Gothic Renaissance-style Hart House have a century-old legend, and the nearby modern buildings, such as the dragon-scale-shaped "student activities" The Nest and the futuristic Carpenter & Union Hall show the spirit of innovation.

Not much to say about this place beyond a few tips - it's just another school building…read more Muffins at Megabites aren't particularly good, I suggest walking over through the "tunnel" to Second Cup in Koffler for better pastries. 24/7 access to people taking CSC/ECE courses, don't forget your T-Card. They should really offer it to people taking MAT courses as well since the Department of Mathematics is on the 6th floor. Open during the day 7 days a week for people without T-Card access. Occasionally you'll find a tutorial room on the second floor open for you to study in if you can't find an available table. The yoyo/diabolos club regularly practices in the main lobby on Sundays, it's really fucking annoying since they drop their shit really often and it echoes throughout the 2nd/3rd floors unless you're inside a room. Bring headphones. Fucking assholes.

I checked in to this building just off College near Spadina as it was close to me while at Science…read moreRendezvous at University of Toronto, St. George Campus. While this science fair is focussed on kids, it is fun for all ages and well worth checking out if you are in the area. This year it was on May 13. There are demos of robots, giant bugs, cool test tube explosions and other nerdy stuff like a telescope focussed on the CN Tower (get your picture taken with an astronaut, or at least a guy dressed like one). A more sober aspect of this show is that you can get to talk to people in difference science fields and find out what they like about their area of research and see what they do at work and for fun too. The food truck we went to was pretty awesome as well. Well worth going!

Suspected Scam! Was sent an invoice for over $800 that said "Tuition Fees". Thought it was a…read moredeposit so paid it. Then the real invoice came with a break-down of fees including the actual Tuition Fee. Spent countless hours talking to people in different departments to discover that the first invoice was not for Tuition Fees but for Health-care Coverage even though I had opted out of this. Was also told that a hefty fee for International Students was applied even though I'm a citizen of Canada. Now I'm at their mercy to get my money back. Later found out that the same thing happened to another student. Any other victims out there?
