Kings College Arts & Administration (KC)

The University of King's College was founded by Anglican Loyalists in 1789, in Windsor Nova Scotia as the first university in English Canada. After receiving its Royal Charter from King George III in 1802, King's College remained in Windsor until 1920 when fire destroyed the main building.
