London Goodenough Association of Canada

Goodenough College celebrates its 80th anniversary in 2011. We are pleased to let you know about a very interesting upcoming project to celebrate this special occasion. The College has arranged to publish The World in a London Square: A Portrait of Goodenough College with the editorial assistance of Janet Sacks, a London-based author, and Third Millennium Information, a London publishing house well-known for high quality books of a similar nature. This anniversary book will be an excellent illustrated history of Goodenough College, a place that Canadians know well as the pre-eminent residence for international graduate students in London, and as a very special place whose diverse and collegial environment enriches our lives.
