In 1957 McMaster University was a small Baptist enclave of traditional higher learning on the western outskirts of Hamilton.

Thirty years later it was home to the only nuclear reactor on a Commonwealth campus and had cultivated a thriving engineering program and a world-class medical school.

In the third volume of the university’s history, James Greenlee illuminates the core ideas, driving ambitions, and occasionally sharp conflicts that marked this startling transition.

Please join us on Thursday, June 25 at 7 pm as James Greenlee shares the untold stories of McMaster University from 1957-1987 int he new David Braley Health Sciences Centre.
