  • The Voices Behind Change: Women's Liberation During the 1970S at The
    The Voices Behind Change: Women’s Liberation During the 1970s at the University of Guelph by Amy L. McBride A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Guelph, Ontario, Canada @ Amy L. McBride, September, 2018 ABSTRACT THE VOICES BEHIND CHANGE: WOMEN’S LIBERATION DURING THE 1970s AT THE UNIVERSITY OF GUELPH Amy L. McBride Advisor: University of Guelph Dr. Linda Mahood The purpose of this thesis is to highlight a student narrative from the perspective of female undergraduates at the University of Guelph from the 1970s, but also to add to the canon of Canadian women’s history. This thesis will argue that female undergraduates at the University of Guelph took part in the Women’s Liberation movement of the 1970s and helped to make Guelph a more liberated and equal opportunity institution. This will be indicated by various examples of the collective action and activism of female undergraduates as they fought to make changes on campus. Using the campus student newspaper, The Ontarion, as the primary source was vital because the newspaper is where the voice of the women students could be heard. The Ontarion is an untapped primary resource providing a wealth of information for assessing and analyzing the emergence of feminism at Guelph. The Ontarion has helped to put a spotlight on feminism and the role of female undergraduates as they organized to make changes at Guelph. Taking on this role included using opinions of feminist role models, notably ideas pertaining to personal and political issues.

    Today is GAMEDAY and we are on the road to London. Please enjoy our newsletter below and catch up on an amazing month of October. I would like to personally thank all those Gryphon Football supporters who jumped on the Friends of Gryphon Football membership campaign that launched in May of this year. DETAILS "The Strength of the Gryphon is the Pack, and the Strength of the Pack is the Gryphon" Issue 10 - November 2017 We’re very proud and excited to announce every game we’ve played in October has been a victory! On the 14th, we dominated the Laurier Golden Hawks 24-14. On the 21st, we beat the Carleton Ravens 28-23. Finally, on the 28th, we eliminated the Ottawa Gee-Gees 30-8 in the OUA Quarter Finals. Next, we’re going to London to face the Western Mustangs in the OUA Semi-finals on November 4th. The kickoff for the game is at 1PM. Join Gryphon Nation and support our team as the Quest continues. OUA football playoffs: Western Mustangs not lulled by Guelph Gryphons' No. 5 seed Given a choice the Western Mustangs would probably have preferred to play anyone other than the Guelph Gryphons in the semi-final run to the Yates Cup. “Yeah, they are a tough team,” said Mustangs coach Greg Marshall. “But you know if you are going to win a championship, you have to beat the best teams and Guelph is one of the best teams.” Before the season began, Marshall said he felt the Gryphons were a team that could win the OUA championship.
