The event will be held in the college’s new events centre in the School of Hospitality, Tourism and Culinary Arts - a fantastic venue that offers breathtaking views of Scarborough.

The Anchor Talks speaker series was created so that Scarborough residents could learn more about how its largest institutions plan to renew Scarborough. Last summer, our first special guest was Andrew Ariffuzaman, Chief Administrative Officer of the University of Toronto Scarborough, who spoke about their campus’s master plan and about their preferential procurement policies for Scarborough. We are delighted to bring another strong, vital speaker like President Buller to the stage this year.
