Explore UCSD History as Women’s History
A randomized collection of primary sources from UC San Diego Library’s Digital Collections
Page from campus newspaper, UCSD Guardian, April 17, 1995: “Word of Mouth: Women’s Studies at UCSD”
Every time you refresh this page, you’ll see a link to a different source uncovered by a UCSD student! There are 45 sources in this randomized collection.
In our women’s history course, American Women, American Womanhood, 1870-Present in Spring 2023, students researched the the UC San Diego Library’s Digital Collections for primary sources that help tell the story of the campus as a significant place for women’s history. We created an “annotated archive” of sources and reflections at the end of the quarter.
Mind map of feedback generated by Prof. Klann after viewing all of the primary sources discovered by Spring 2023 students, creating a web of historical kinship through UCSD’s women’s history. You can also view this image as a PDF.
