Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a thorough examination of the Upper Canada College (UCC), a school in Canada, from its controversial founding in 1830 to 1867. The book is a history of the school and its impact on the broader provincial university. It discusses the school's establishment and subsequent controversial funding and reallocation of funds from other educational institutions, through a detailed timeline of events and thorough analysis of documentation from the period. The author presents a critique of the school's leadership and its relationship with the provincial government, arguing they resulted in a misallocation of funds that lasted decades. The author's research reveals how UCC came to swallow up funds that were intended to be used by other, more deserving schools, and how this misappropriation of funds and resources has had a lasting negative impact on education in the province. This book will be of interest to both scholars and general readers interested in the history of education in Canada.
