University of Lethbridge
50 Years, 50 Voices Project

Have you ever wondered what it would’ve been like to walk our halls in 1975? Perhaps you’d like to experience the controversial protest of 1968? The 50 Voices Project conducted by the Centre for Oral History and Tradition (COHT) has captured our iconic stories, as well as those yet to be told, with the help of the University’s history-makers throughout the last five decades.

Through 50 voices — those of our founders, administrators, faculty, staff, students, alumni and supporters — the project has created a kaleidoscope of 50 histories.

The oral history vignettes will be unveiled online in 2017 in conjunction with the University’s 50th anniversary celebrations. Full audio interviews, digital transcripts and photographs will be available in the University Archives and online for future research and as valuable records of University history.
