Simon Fraser University (SFU) is the second largest university in British Columbia. It is nicknamed "the Peak" due to its main campus' peculiar location as the sole occupant atop Burnaby Mountain; officially, the university was named after Simon Fraser, an important fur trader and explorer in the Pacific Northwest region. SFU's most famous alumnus is Terry Fox, who attempted to run across Canada to raise funds for cancer research and one of the most important icons in Canadian history (in 2 surveys about Canada's greatest heroes, he finished in 1st and 2nd place respectively); today, there is a Terry Fox Run fundraiser across Canada every September. SFU is also consistently ranked in the top 5 list of Canada's best comprehensive universities.
