Council of Ontario Universities

For more than 40 years, COU has been working to improve the quality and accessibility of higher education in Ontario .

Originally known as the Committee of Presidents of the Universities of Ontario (CPUO), the organization was formed in 1962 in response to a need for institutional participation in educational reform and expansion. The executive head of each of Ontario 's provincially assisted universities comprised the committee. The group was instrumental in policy and program initiatives implemented by the government during the universities' growth period in the '60s.

The committee was later enlarged to include two representatives from each member and associate institution: the executive head (university president, principal, or rector) and an academic colleague appointed by each university's senior academic governing body. In 1971, the committee changed its name to the Council of Ontario Universities.

Since then, COU has been involved in a host of activities from issues management to information management; and from leadership on collective issues to general operational support for our member institutions, committees and affiliates. COU works with and on behalf of its members to meet public policy expectations of greater accountability, financial self-reliance, diversity of educational opportunity, and responsiveness to educational and marketplace needs, while supporting institutions' traditional rights of autonomy and self-regulation.
