        History

        The Board-Senate Liaison Committee : Search Committee for a new President was established in 1969 to select a successor to Murray Ross as President of the University. The Search Committee for a new President was made up of representatives of the Senate, the Board and student and faculty representatives. Controversy plagued the Committee' s deliberations, including a premature release of the short-list of candidates, allegations of discord published in the university and Toronto newspapers, and revelations about confidential committee proceedings. Bora Laskin, formerly of Osgoode Hall Law School, chaired the committee.
