Victoria College Cobourg - a photo on Flickriver

            Victoria College, started in 1832 by the Methodist Church, was an Upper Canada Academy for boys and girls. By 1841 Degree granting powers were granted by Queen Victoria and with an Act of Parliament, it became Victoria College with University status. The following year the Rev. Egerton Ryerson was appointed Principal (President). The three story building next to Victoria College is now called the “Egerton”. It was 1845 when the first convocation was held; and by 1862, to the initial faculties of Arts, Science, and Divinity, Medicine and Law had been added. The change to College status barred female students, and it was not until 1880 that a female was allowed to attend Victoria

It is now a retirement home.
