History
St. Michael's College affiliated with the University of Toronto in 1883, having secured a guarantee that it would conduct its own teaching in philosophy and history. On December 8, 1910, St. Michael's College became a federated college of the University of Toronto. St. Michael's College maintained autonomy in faculty hiring and teaching in liberal arts subjects, while the University of Toronto governed examinations and the granting of degrees in all subjects except theology. The undergraduate division of St. Michael's College joined the undergraduate divisions of six other University of Toronto colleges in 1974 to reorganize its academic departments into the University of Toronto Faculty of Arts and Science.
