Updates from the President regarding the encampment at the St. George Campus 

Dear U of T community,

Yesterday we met again with students representing those in the encampment on the St. George Campus. Our next meeting is on Wednesday. We continue with discussions to reach a negotiated end to the unauthorized encampment. We also continue to pursue legal action to restore the use of King’s College Circle to the entire University community.

Thank you for your patience. I will continue to keep you updated.

Sincerely,

Meric S. Gertler
President

Dear U of T community, 

This morning, lawyers representing the University of Toronto served documents seeking an injunction order from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and asked the court for an expedited case conference for scheduling.

In addition to pursuing this legal avenue to return King’s College Circle to the University community, we continue to engage in discussions with students representing those in the encampment. We held a long and productive meeting yesterday and are meeting again today. We remain hopeful that we can reach an agreement and bring the unauthorized encampment to an end.

Thank you for your patience. I will continue to keep you updated.

Sincerely,  

Meric S. Gertler 
President
