Engineering - 'The Red Eye' Student Newspaper

Two female students read a single copy of the Engineering Student Society newspaper 'The Red Eye.' Name of newspaper taken from image.

Bio/Historical Note: The College of Engineering’s student newspaper had its share of criticism and controversy, as it often featured racist and sexist material and strove to be outrageous and provocative. One complaint lodged with the Saskatchewan Human Rights Commission alleged that 'The Red Eye' newspaper distributed on the campus of the university on 3 Oct. 1979, and 27 Jan. 1981, contained articles, notices, symbols and other representations that ridiculed, belittled and affronted the dignity of all women in Saskatchewan.

Statues - Lesya Ukrainka - Unveiling

An unidentified male speaker addresses participants of the unveiling ceremony of the 10-foot high bronze statue of Lesya Ukrainka, the celebrated Ukrainian poet. People holding signs reading "Pleas For", "Human", "Rights", "In", "Ukraine", are visible in background.

Bio/Historical Note: Lesya Ukrainka (Larysa Kosach-Kvitka) (1871-1913), the celebrated Ukrainian poet, made her mark on Ukrainian and world literature through her diverse writing talents. Her profound knowledge of world history and languages enabled her to write extensively across genres on a variety of subjects. In her lyrical works and dramatic poems, she vividly developed the themes of patriotism, human dignity, and personal integrity. Ukrainka’s work is timeless in its powerful assertion of human rights and freedoms. In 1976, a bronze statue of Lesya Ukrainka, made in Kyiv, Ukraine (USSR) by sculptor Halyna Kal’chenko and architect Anatoliy Ihnashchenko, was unveiled at the University of Saskatchewan. Commissioned by the Association for Cultural Relations with Ukrainians Abroad, the statue was at the time seen by some merely as Soviet propaganda designed to rehabilitate their international reputation tarnished, in part, by injustices perpetrated against the people of Ukraine. The gift was initially declined by both the Province of Saskatchewan and the City of Saskatoon before being accepted by the University of Saskatchewan and installed on campus in a grove south of the Arts Tower. Through a generous donation by Dr. Victor O. Buyniak, as well as through the support of alumni and the wider Ukrainian community, the statue was refurbished and unveiled in its present location on 1 August 2013, the centenary of the death of Lesya Ukrainka.

Bio/historical note: A statue of Lesya Ukrainka, the celebrated Ukrainian poet, was presented to the U of S in 1976 by the Association for Cultural Relations with Ukrainians Abroad of the USSR as a gift of friendship from the people of Ukraine to the people of Canada.
