  2. I took classes in that building in my first year as a student of engineering. Alas, it was demolished to make way for a new building for the faculty of medicine. For those who did not go to U of T, the name “School of Practical Science” was the source of the faculty’s nickname “Skule” (in recognition of the idea that engineers did not know how to spell). More than a century later, the nickname is still used and that building is sometimes still referred to as the Old Skule House.
