Score! Campus Photographer Spots Diverse Friend Group

With the application deadlines for first-years rapidly approaching (and their accompanying tuition fees), the University of Toronto is desperate to show off the aspects of student life on campus that do not include the infamous guardrails enclosing the stairwells at Robarts Library, inhaling copious amounts of construction dust, being aggressively accosted by Christian missionaries in Queen’s Park, questionably prepared chicken in the dining halls, and living in close proximity to Ontario Premier Doug Ford. 

To combat these unfortunate circumstances, U of T will be releasing new brochures and other promotional materials featuring pictures of students who appear fulfilled while on school grounds. Frankie Leivowitz, the photographer hired to execute this vision, has hit the ultimate jackpot for diverse pamphlet fodder: a group of friends with each belonging to multiple visible minorities sitting leisurely in the grass. 

“Oh man, what a find! Woke of the woke,” Leviowitz told us. “I used to do shoots for Western. Western! Try finding a nonbinary interracial lesbian couple on the entirety of that campus–you won’t. It’s much easier here in the city. Also, one of them has asthma. Asthma! How’s that for the cover of a brochure?”
