Thrilled to hear LAWS alum Deluxson Yogarajah on Metro Morning. Thank you for being a great advocate for youth and for the Jane & Finch community! @OsgoodeNews @UTLaw @LawFoundationOn
Leading up to the municipal elections, we're heading to different neighbourhoods in the GTA to hear about their most pressing issues. This week, Jane and Finch community worker Deluxson Yogarajah gave @CBCIsmaila a tour of his community. Listen live: cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-3…

We are so grateful for the amazing contribution of @BLGLaw. This year's articling student Walk-a-Thon Fundraiser made it possible for four LAWS students to receive a bursary during our graduation ceremony. @UTLaw
