The Women of UNB

Women Who Made History At Our School

Ayden F. & April S.

Since British loyalists founded this school in 1785, many impressive individuals have walked through these halls and have been some of the first to accomplish great things while studying here. UNB has produced many prominent women in history; each of them is vital to understanding the school we all attend today.
