Assumption College: Through the Decades seeks to serve as an overview of Assumption’s long and storied history from its inception in 1857 to its incorporation into the University of Windsor in 1963. Its over 100-year history as an independent institution, not withstanding its current existence as an affiliated university, showcases stories of resilience, faith, and determination in creating a university to serve the needs of the community in Windsor, Ontario.
By analyzing Assumption College and its shared history with the University of Windsor, we can more fully understand where our educational community has come from and how we might shape its paths in the future.
Assumption College: Through the Decades was created by Devon Fraser (BA Honours 2021) as the capstone project for her work with Leddy Library, as part of the University of Windsor's Outstanding Scholars program.
