Roadtrip (4.5)! - Univ. of Toronto Winter 2011 Midday Talks

I completely love that Daniels College of Architecture, Landscape and Design also has midday lectures. I think you can bring a bagged lunch. Much more fun then watching Will & Grace reruns or sitting alone in a cafe ignoring your co-workers.
