Our Commitment to the Environment
With the September 2007 issue of Nexus, the U of T Faculty of Law adopted a commitment to do what it can to protect the environment by using natural resources responsibly. We are committed to implementing policies that will facilitate the meaningful conservation of ancient and endangered forests globally and ensure that we are not contributing to the destruction of these irreplaceable natural treasures.

Background
Nexus began as an informative newsletter for alumni, first published in 1983. Over the years, as the Faculty grew, Nexus expanded, publishing more feature articles and news for its wider community, including students, faculty and visiting professors, and other friends of the law school.
Today, Nexus has evolved into a colourful, glossy magazine with a comprehensive mandate: to capture the wide range of activities — academic scholarship, student curricular and extracurricular programs, alumni events — that take place throughout the year at the law school. Nexus often explores the key legal issues of the day.
Nexus won gold for the Best School/University Publication, bronze for Most Improved Design, and an honorable mention for Most Improved Editorial in the Magnum Opus 2011 awards. In 2010, the "Decade Dozen" feature in the Fall/Winter 2010 edition landed a silver for Best Alumni Initiative in the CCAE (Canadian Council for the Advancement of Education) Prix d'Excellence competition. In 2005, Nexus was awarded the CCAE Prix d'Excellence Gold Award for Best Magazine |
Nexus’ founding editor was Ann E. Wilson, a lawyer who has devoted most of her career to public policy issues. She has worked with Ontario’s Ministry of Intergovernmental Affairs, specializing in federal-provincial relations, and with Ontario’s Council of Regents, which governs the community college system. Ann’s husband is former Dean of the Faculty of Law and President of the University of Toronto, Robert Prichard. Both graduated from the Law School in 1975.
