List of vice-presidents and principals of the University of Toronto Mississauga
The University of Toronto Mississauga, a campus of the University of Toronto, has had 10 principals since it was formally established in 1967 as Erindale College. Since 2002, when the campus grew significantly and became an academic division of the university, the role of its principal was broadened to include vice-presidential responsibilities of the University of Toronto.
Sometimes referred to as the "VPP", the vice-president/principal is the executive head of the Mississauga campus and reports directly to the president of the University of Toronto.
The VPP's official residence on campus is a historic building known as Lislehurst, which formerly belonged to the Schreiber estate, the previous owner of the property upon which the campus was built.[1]
