Hey all!
The University of Toronto is really large (>100,000 students) and talent-dense.
We think turning the EA group into a thriving community at U of T is high impact, neglected, and very tractable.
- We’re looking for University of Toronto students who are passionate about EA to join the organizing team to kick-start this community in the fall.
- We’re currently accepting applications for our virtual summer intro fellowships, where you’ll discuss readings on effective altruism over 8 weeks online, and meet other U of T students who are attending uni with you in the fall.
Currently, the UTEA group runs intro fellowships through the fall and winter semesters, but has no community events beyond that. We think that the community can grow way bigger with more marketing, regular socials, retreats, and talks on high-impact careers.
If you're passionate about effective altruism and would like to help out (we'll be tabling in August), send an email to uoft.effectivealtruism@gmail.com.
