Project Profile:

Struggle for Identity

from Scarborough College to the University of Scarborough 1964–present

Website: https://historyofutsc.ca/

Description: The Struggle for Identity explores the history of the University of Toronto Scarborough from its beginning in 1964. It is our goal with this project to capture the social and cultural history of our campus – the lived experience of the members of our campus community – faculty, students, and staff at all levels. We quickly discovered that the struggles of today have deep roots in our collective past – the continuing struggle for identity, diversity and all forms of representation, the role of technology and innovation, to name a few. We invite you to share in some of what we’ve learned.
