The dust hasn’t even settled and many parts of the building are still unfinished, but New College’s newest residence building-tentatively referred to as New College III-opened to students on the very first day of September at the intersection of Spadina and Wilcocks.
Nearly two months later, its official opening was celebrated in the new exhibition room.
The building is part of a $700 million expansion across all three campuses of the university, and one of four new residences opened this year to accommodate the growing number students and the double cohort. New College III currently houses 277 undergraduates from various disciplines.
Speakers included New College Principal David Clandfield and U of T President Robert Birgeneau.
