They aren't using it for ad revenue, but the opposite. The DoubleClick Code is likely for tracking banner advertising from other websites to analyze how effective UofT’s ads are.

In Ontario prospective students apply to all public Universities from one central location - the place you showed in your episode today. The complete a single app and choose up to three schools/programs to send it to. Because of this they really don't have their own application. Also UofT has no problem filling - they turn as many way as they keep - wish I had that problem. My disappointment with this rebuild is that it is very shallow - not much below the top level here. The great global nav disappears after top level and the design just blows up. The new front page may get an A- but beyond that I think there are still a lot of issues. This is a huge school which has the ability to put resources towards fixing these issues - sad that they remain. Keep up the good work! -Andy Tyndale University College & Seminary - Toronto www.tyndale.ca Nick- Just a quick note on applying to a public University in Ontario Canada (where UofT is).
