Devon Fraser graduated from the University of Windsor with a major in History in 2021. She was part of the Outstanding Scholars program where she worked on various historical projects at Leddy Library under the direction of Dr. Heidi Jacobs. Assumption College Through the Decades is the capstone project of her work with Leddy Library. In the fall of 2021, Devon will be pursuing a Masters of Library and Information Science at Western University. 

This project was created under the supervision of Dr. Heidi Jacobs through my work as an Outstanding Scholar. Without Dr. Jacobs' support and encouragement, I would not be in the position I am today, and this project would not have existed. 

I would also like to thank my parents for their unrelenting support and motivation during this process. 

If you have any questions or comments about the project, feel free to contact me at frase11u@uwindsor.ca
