West Island College
West Island College (WIC) is a system of three Canadian private schools: West Island College Montreal, founded in 1974, West Island College Calgary, founded in 1982, and Class Afloat–West Island College International, founded in 1984.While the schools historically shared varying levels of affiliation, each school now operates independently. A West Island College school was opened briefly in Ottawa, Ontario, but is no longer in operation.Each school was founded by Terry D. Davies, with Jack Grant playing a significant role as well, as fully French immersion (no English stream). The two met while teaching French at Riverdale High School. Grant was particularly instrumental in founding WIC Calgary after Grant joined WIC Montreal in 1975.
