About the Encyclopedia

Queen's Encyclopedia is a reference tool documenting Queen's University, its history, and its people. Each entry is significant to Queen's history and its evolution as both an academic institution and a community.

A rich legacy of academic excellence, a distinctive learning environment that is built on the philosophy that not all lessons are learned in the classroom, an unrivalled spirit, strong sense of community, and social purpose are hallmarks of Queen's. This Encyclopedia documents how these characteristics came to define the university.
