Woman's College Tribute

The Woman's College Tribute honors access to education, dedication to learning, and commitment to service of the Woman’s College era (1932-63). It celebrates the WC legacy while also honoring the role the university played — and continues to play—in transforming students and communities.

After many years of planning, WC Tribute construction began in early 2023, with the dedication Saturday, April 22, 2023.
