Student AffairsIn the fall of 1974, the Ban Righ Centre was founded with a vision to create an alternative space to provide supports for mature women students. In 2024 we celebrate 50 years of doing what we do best.
Countless testimonials and success stories from current students and alumnae prove that this model - a model based on meeting students where they are, on building warm and respectful relationships, and on fostering community among women from all faculties and from all stages of life - works.
Thanks to our many supporters, alumni, boards of directors and dedicated staff over the years, the Ban Righ Foundation has stayed true to this vision.
On October 24, 2024 celebrated 50 years of success and imagined 50 years to come!
We will be posting videos and photos from the event soon!
