UBC is one of the Group of Thirteen(G-13) in Canada. According to Wikipedia (2008), the G13 (or G-13), is a group of leading research-intensive universities in
Canada. Formed over 10 years ago as an informal biannual meeting of university executive heads, the grouping is similar to the
Australian Group of Eight. The G13's primary activity is in joint research programmes. The chairmanship of the G13 rotates among the executive heads of the thirteen universities. There are currently 428,000 students enrolled in the 13 universities. In terms of endowment wealth, UBC ranks 2nd place in the 13 schools. I saw this bell in fornt of UBC's Asia study center which is donated by Mr. Choi Cheung Kok, an oversea Chinese business man.
