On International Women’s Day, let’s celebrate the founders of the Trinity College Friends of the Library! Not only are they exceptional volunteers and donors themselves, but over 50 years they have spread their love and commitment for Trinity College, University of Toronto and John W. Graham Library to hundreds of others and helped raise over $1 million.

They are a wonderful example of women making a difference, founding an inclusive legacy that continues to connect with and welcome alumni and book lovers to a unique community at Trinity.

📰 In 1999, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology made the unusual declaration that it had discriminated against the women on its science faculty. This acknowledgement by one of the world’s leading universities set off a reckoning about the lack of women at the highest levels of STEM fields. Kate Zernike, author of "The Exceptions: Nancy Hopkins and the Fight for Women in Science" will tell the story of how MIT came to make this historic admission, and how it resonates more than 25 years later, well beyond science and academia. This event is part of the Anne Steacy Program in Science Communication and will explore the challenges and opportunities around creating compelling science communication.
