University Of Toronto: A Case Study Analysis

The new president of Weston University, Dr. Diana Ball, took over in late 1995, succeeding Dr. Harold Powers. Dr. Powers led the prestigious private university for fifteen years from a human resource frame to tailor the organization to individuals (Bolman & Deal, 2013, p. 16).

The Wellesley 100 is a list full of bizarre, innovative, and inspiring characteristics of a world class college. I stumbled upon interesting things in Wellesley’s community such as the beautiful Lake Day- a campus activity I would love to participate in- or the hci lab- proof of the innovation that I can become part of once joining Wellesley’s community. However, what really caught my eye was #29 and #16- Adam Van Arsdale’s forensic anthropology class and traditions, respectively. I was particularly drawn to these two things because they focus on traits that are fundamental in my life and an absolute must-have in my future college community.

After campaigning around post-secondary schools using posters, advocates and advertisement such as free agendas at the beginning of the year, the group was able to increase student support and participation. The most current course of action taken by the organization was the National Day of Action, on November 2, 2016 (The Canadian Federation of Students, 2016). This was a day in which the participants would protest at Queen’s Park and “go all out” to draw attention towards the issues revolving around access to post-secondary education within the various provinces in

Canada’s identity has always been unique; a country which has embraced higher education, freedom and merit based decisive decision making. (Blattberg, C. (n.d.).) Identity politics in Canada have grown more prevalent and has resulted in individuals or groups using this form of politics to seize or maintain power.

University campuses are special communities and McMaster University is one of these with approximately 30,000 students, staff, faculty and visitors along with its own network of roads, shuttle bus system, parking lots, power supplies, sewers, lighting and buildings, etc. Special constables are employed by the university to perform specialized security functions on campus that may include the implementation of specific acts, particularly those relevant to campus communities. University special constables play a role in the enforcement of municipal by-laws, and also enforce particular elements of the Criminal Code. Campus special constables may perform investigations that relate to more minor criminal activity, and often act as a liaison between
