University of Toronto: June not only includes the winsome solstice segue from spring to summer, it also spawns weddings and graduations lots of them, according to The Star. Unlike the collective wave of the hand over a sea of graduating students, as happens at Yale and other North American universities, students at the University of Toronto are called by name to receive personal and personable kudos from the chancellor and president of the university. This human touch is all the more special given that U of Ts graduating class is the largest in Canada and If April is the cruelest month, as poet T.S. Eliot observed, then June might very well be the sweetest. I fortunately have had a front-row seat at several graduation ceremonies at the University of Toronto this season, which will see upwards of 13,000 smiling students stream across the front campus which, unlike its back campus counterpart, is not slated for artificial turf to the august, and now, thankfully, air-conditioned, Convocation Hall.
