Scope and content
This sound recording is a short segment of "Morningside" radio show featuring Carolyn Gammon speaking on the development of her campaign to get a Mistress degree from Concordia. Two years on from the end of her degree, she was denied a Mistress degree but instead was offered the Magisteriat degree. She speaks to the history of mistress degrees and how the language is problematic to a certain degree in history and contemporaneously. [Note: the follow-up show can be found on ACC-2006-22-M13]
A news paper clipping accompanies the cassette. It is an extract of the Globe and Mail (May 30 th, 1991) p. A16. It mentionnes " Mistess of arts: Carolyn Gammon, a creative-writtin student, has tried unsuccessfully to get Concordia University to grant her this postgraduate degree in English. Contending the term "master" is sexist, Ms Gammon said: "I feel they have missed a chance to make a prowoman, pro-feminist statement." (A committee of the university has recommended that if adopt gender-neutral degree titles such as baccalaureate, magisteriate and doctorate.)".
