      1. Introduction

        Based on the Wilson Library exhibit, Climbing the Hill: Women in the History of UNC Opens in New Window, this tour explores the women’s history of the university through the spaces in which it took place. Whether taking the tour in person or navigating through the digital map, you will find an introduction to women’s experiences on campus as they were shaped by race, class, age, and sexuality. Users are encouraged to scroll through the photo and document galleries, to follow the links within to learn more, and to explore UNC’s history for themselves in the UNC Special Collections.
