Nicole L. Murph (Curator)

Abstract

This curated digital exhibition utilizing the collections from the Inclusive History and Images Project (IHIP) and the William H. Hannon Library’s Archives and Special Collections, this digital exhibition is an exploration of university life between 1968-1982, a time marked by cultural upheaval, social change, and the pursuit of equality. Against the backdrop of historic events such as the Civil Rights Movement, the Women’s Liberation Movement, the Gay Liberation Movement, the Vietnam War protests, inflation and budgetary cuts to education, and conflicts in the Middle East, the university was a center of dissent, dialogue, and determination. We delve into the experiences of student groups, the global majority at Loyola Marymount University (LMU) - specifically the Black student community and the Chicano/a/Mexican American student community - whose voices and struggles shaped the fabric of the university.
