The University of Toronto turns 191 on March 15 – and #HBDUofT is trending.

Across the university’s three campuses and around the world, students, faculty, staff and alumni are invited to celebrate.

So what’s the best way to honour the university that’s given the world six Nobel laureates, two astronauts, life-saving insulin, the first Grey Cup champions, and a video game based on its iconic library?

There are cookies.

Also cake.

You can dress in blue and white.

You can look back at some cool photos from the university's history.

And you can test your knowledge of U of T through a quiz posted on the University of Toronto Magazine’s website.

Go on, take the quiz.
