University of Toronto Faculty Lists/Helpful tip for approaching faculty

(Helpful tip) Reach out to faculty whose research you might be interested in ask them if they have any work-study, volunteer opportunities (in fieldwork, or working with archaeological collections, ROPS, labs etc)

If profs don't email back (try again) or if they say no, don't be discouraged, rejection is redirection, keep trying!!
