| Summary |
"Comings and Goings is the first book to connect the study of student life with both the history of a Canadian university as a whole and the role of the university as a career-training institution. Charles Levi examines the origins, activities, and careers of 1,876 members of the executive of the University College Literary and Athletic Society of the University of Toronto from the inception of the college until 1973. Using an intricate quantitative analysis of data from student records and genealogical sources, Levi charts the history of student activities at University College, filling a gap in the historiography of higher education in Canada."--Jacket |
