Creating a University
is a collection of memoirs by more than 30 former faculty and staff of Memorial University a series of “MUNographies,” about personal and professional experiences working at Newfoundland's only university. It is something of a Memorial University family reunion, without a drunken uncle.
In the years covered by this volume, primarily 1950 to 1990, few Memorial faculty were Canadians, let alone Newfoundlanders. These “come from aways” arrived in the middle of a post-colonial cultural renaissance, which saw a movement toward new interdisciplinary studies, and laid the groundwork for many of the programs and courses that are offered at the University today.
