Providence College marked many milestones in the fall of 1971. It was the first year that women enrolled as undergraduates. These inaugural women and their male counterparts began a new curriculum, which included the very first Development of Western Civilization classes. And it was also the year that the Slavin Center opened its doors.

Explore the impact of all the changes half a century later in this discussion with Dr. Richard J. Grace ’62, ’17Hon., professor emeritus of history, hosted by Joe Carr ’83, associate vice president for marketing and communications.
