Abstrakt: Using, among other sources, previously unanalyzed results of student surveys conducted in 1963 and 1967, in this article I examine the experiences and expectations of female students at Glendon College (York University, Toronto). Consistent with some Canadian feminist critiques of the period, students were likely exposed to an androcentric curriculum and had few female instructors. This said, female students were respected by male faculty and students; did well in their studies; were as likely as males to complete their academic programs; went to graduate school in large numbers; and were as satisfied as males with some important aspects of their education.
