Scope and content

This series contains correspondence and associated material documenting Professor Bliss’ relationship with the University of Toronto, including his initial employment and retirement. Of particular interest is a file from the early 1980s of letters documenting his discontent with the University administration and on the controversial Back Campus Fields project, related to the Pan American Games in 2015. The latter demonstrates that in retirement Professor Bliss’ critical eye on University policy had not diminished. The Massey College memorabilia covers the years (1994-2005) of his membership on the Massey Corporation as a Senior Fellow.

Digital files consist of course syllabi and lecture notes, and some humorous writings related to his membership at Massey College.
