College History
Online Exhibits
The UCC Archives is a fascinating repository of photographs, documents and artifacts. The Archives promotes and preserves UCC’s heritage, thus serving as its “institutional memory.” At the Archives, we seek and acquire records and artifacts of permanent value to UCC and its affiliates. The College’s archival records date back to the mid-19th century. They offer a wealth of information about the history of UCC, Upper Canada, the Province of Ontario and the City of Toronto. UCC graduates, faculty and the College itself have played an active role in Canadian politics, education, the arts and sports.

What You Will Find at the UCC Archives

Textual Records
These are documents produced by the UCC Board of Governors, the principal, the head of the Preparatory School and College associations. The collection also has student records and publications such as College Times, the oldest, continuously running student publication in Canada, dating back to 1871.

Graphic Collection
This collection has more than 20,000 photographs, slides, negatives, films and tapes depicting students, faculty, UCC buildings, theatre productions, sports and UCC's Norval Outdoor School.

Artifact Collection
These include medals, trophies, sweaters, caps, ties, pennants, sports equipment and Battalion uniforms.

We welcome inquiries from the UCC community and the public, however, access to some records is restricted and may require permission from the archivist or principal. Please note that the University of Toronto Archives hold much of UCC’s archival record prior to 1900.
