Thomas More Institute
The Thomas More Institute (TMI) is a secular academic institution based out of Montreal, Quebec, Canada offering a program of university level studies in the liberal arts. There is an option to earn a Bachelor of Arts in affiliation with Bishop's University.
== History ==
TMI was founded in Montreal in 1945 by a group of people, most of them in their twenties, including Charlotte Tansey, Martin O'Hara, Stan Machnik, and Veronica Smyth.〔("Spirit of Girl in Twenties Spells Success for Adult Education Inst." ), ''Manitoba Ensign'', February 4, 1950.〕〔Lisa Fitterman, ("Dedicated to the pursuit of lifelong learning: Founder of Thomas More Institute for Adult Education had fierce vision and passion for knowledge )", ''The Globe and Mail'', September 6, 2010.〕 The aim was to provide opportunities for lifelong learning and liberal arts education for adults. In 1950, TMI established the Workers' School, which offered evening classes in "Human Rights and Labour Unions," "The Rise of Labour Movements," and "Talking at Meetings," training workers to become union members. The Institute received a federal charter in 1959.〔("Thomas More Institute Gets Federal Charter" ), ''Montreal Gazette'', May 20, 1959.〕
Today, annually, the Institute has more than 600 registrations and 35-40 new courses. The adult students are of all ages, from those in their early 20s to several over 90 years of age.
