Opis

In 1995 the McEwen report was released charging faculty members of the department of political science at the University of British Columbia with pervasive sexism and racism. The president of UBC responded to the controversial report by suspending admissions to the graduate program in political science, sparking a fiery dispute among students and faculty members over the fairness of the decision. The UBC affair became front-page news throughout Canada and was discussed in news media and on university campuses throughout the Western world.
