More than two dozen leading lights associated with the University of Toronto--including UTM alumna Roberta Bondar--have been recognized by the Order of Canada – one of the country's highest civilian honours.

The long list of luminaries associated with U of T includes David Cameron, dean of the Faculty of Arts & Science. Cameron has been named a Member of the Order for his “governmental expertise in federal negotiations and constitutional affairs,” as well as his contributions as a scholar and academic leader. 

U of T Mississauga sociology professor Jayne Baker is among four U of T faculty awarded the 2017-2018 Early Career Teaching Award from the Office of the Vice-President & Provost. The annual award recognizes faculty members who demonstrate exceptional commitment to student learning, pedagogical engagement and teaching innovation.
