The Toronto Star Columnist to Speak at CUC

Royson James
Royson James, award-winning municipal affairs columnist for The Toronto Star will be speaking at Canadian University College Tuesday, November 25, for University Convocation, held in the College Heights Seventh-day Adventist Church.*

As a child in Jamaica, James loved reading the Jamaican Gleaner newspaper each day. When he moved to Canada in 1969 at age 16 he knew he wanted to be a journalist.

"Royson and I were classmates, both of us journalism majors at Andrews University in the early 1970s," said CUC President Mark Haynal. "Back then, as he does now, Royson wrote about important issues in an engaging, compelling manner."

James has received much recognition for his work. Most recently he received the Harry Jerome Award in recognition of his accomplishments in media, most of it with The Toronto Star.
