EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Women's Residence at Macdonald College, located in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, Quebec, on the Island of Montreal's West Island region. Established in 1905 and opened in 1907, this remarkable institution was the brainchild of philanthropist William C. Macdonald, who funded the college in its entirety and provided an impressive $2 million operating endowment. Designed by architects Alexander Cowper Hutchison and George W. Wood, the Women's Residence was a trailblazing agricultural college, boasting state-of-the-art facilities for its time. The college's mission was to provide higher education and practical training in agriculture and home economics for women. The Women's Residence, with its elegant design and inviting atmosphere, served as a home away from home for students, fostering a nurturing environment for their academic and personal growth. This photograph, taken circa 1910, captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the rich history of Canadian education and the pioneering spirit of Macdonald College.
