Banting University is a fictional University in Kingston, Ontario, most likely representing Queen's University. Banting is one of the most prestigious universities in Canada. Their business program is highly selective, with an annual admission of about 30 students per year. They have a zero-tolerance policy towards plagiarism, and are known to have either pupils that are from wealthy backgrounds, or ones who are very smart. In December 2006, there was a dorm fire set by former student Paige Michalchuk. It's often considered the "Harvard of the North", a term often associated with Queen's.
