Congratulations to Prof. Jim Phillips, who has been awarded the 2013 David Walter Mundell Medal.

The Mundell Medal honours those who have made a distinguished contribution to law and letters. It celebrates great legal writing and recognizes that the artful use of language in the right style has the power to give life to ideas.

In a commentary in The Globe and Mail, Prof. Anita Anand looks at the Ontario Securities Commission's plans to increase the number of women on corporate boards through a "comply-or-explain" approach ("Getting women on corporate boards: Canada's middling approach just might work," February 21, 2014).

Dear Members of the Law School Community,

I wanted to let you know that I have been appointed the next Provost and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Trinity College. After more than two fantastic decades at our law school, it is hard to imagine being elsewhere. I am very excited about taking on this wonderful new challenge but of course my feelings are also very mixed. I look forward to the opportunity to thank all of you who have made this such an amazing shared journey and to celebrate the law school we love.

All the best,

Mayo
