AUFA WOMEN’S COMMITTEE F.E.W.

AUFA
Women’s Committee F.E.W., January 17th at the University Club.
F.E.W. (First Ever Women) was a networking event that focused on the successes
of the “few” women in our upper ranks at Acadia. It featured talks by
Shelley MacDougall (first ever associate professor in School of Business), Heather
Hemming (first ever full professor in the School of Education) and Janice Best
(one of the few full professors in the Arts faculty –maybe even the only one at
present). Jessica Slights MC’d the event and Patricia Townsend gave some
historical background of Women at Acadia.
In the picture are: L to R. Drs. Jessica Slights, Janice Best, Heather Hemming, Shelley Mac Dougall and University Archivist Patricia Townsend.
