Sir Wilfred Laurier University WLU will grow to the degree where the new campus that was part of the 1964 plan will become reality Mulcahy told The Examiner Friday The committee has no plans to sell the 240 acres on the west side of Highway 11 south of Orillia purchased almost 15 years ago to accommodate the college that was to be Simcoe Countys first university she said To sell our land and say

enrolment grew enough to support campus Mulcahy said sodltturning ceremony took place during 1967 but that same year the federal government altered its method of funding universities the province
