New booklet celebrates women of Strathclyde Law School
A new booklet celebrates the women of Strathclyde Law School as it celebrates its diamond jubilee this year.
It states: “The idea for the booklet dates to 2022 when Claire McDiarmid and Rebecca Zahn decided to embark on a project to collate the memories that women academics have of their time in the Law School with a view to publishing these as part of the 60th anniversary celebrations.
“The first hurdle was to identify all women who had been academics or school managers, and find contact details. This was harder than expected as existing records were either incomplete or included all women who had ever had a temporary (research, teaching or administrative) contract with the School. Some women had changed their surnames, moved away, or were uncontactable for health reasons.”
