To maintain its leadership position among the world's teaching and research universities, the University of Toronto must compete effectively for the best minds.  By endowing a named chair at the Faculty of Arts and Science, you are helping U of T to do just that.

Endowed chairs are established by gifts that support faculty positions in perpetuity. They equip the University with the means to attract and retain the world’s best scholars, thinkers and scientists, providing a legacy of continuous intellectual renewal and discovery. In turn, chair holders attract outstanding students and research funding, ultimately furthering knowledge that leads to new discoveries and answers to the most compelling questions of our time.
