The University of Windsor’s story began in September 1857, when the first students arrived at its predecessor, Assumption College. Assumption admitted its first women students in 1950 and, on July 1, 1953, ended its affiliation with the University of Western Ontario and gained its own university powers by an act of the Ontario Legislature.
