Description

Principal Hoyles asks Convocation to provide a student common room, ‘something like a club for men,’ to provide a gathering place for law students living in cramped boarding-houses without sitting-rooms. Overcrowding and sub-par living conditions became a serious concern. Osgoode Hall was located next to one of the worst slums in the city, the notorious Ward.
