Discovering Carleton's Past
Carleton University has a rich history. It started small and grew into a large, well-known school.
How Carleton College Began (1942–1957)
In 1938, people in Ottawa wanted to create a new school. They wanted a place for non-Catholic students to learn. Henry Marshall Tory helped start the Ottawa Association for the Advancement of Learning in 1941. Carleton College officially opened in 1942.
The school first offered evening classes. These were held in rented classrooms at the High School of Commerce. After World War II ended in 1945, many veterans returned. Student numbers grew quickly, with about 2,200 new students joining.
To fit more students, the college rented rooms in other buildings. They also added more subjects like journalism and engineering. In 1946, Carleton got its first own campus. It was a four-story building that used to be the Ottawa Ladies' College. Carleton gave out its first degrees in 1946.
For its first ten years, the college had a small budget. It relied on money raised by the community and student fees. Henry Marshall Tory helped raise $1 million for the school. Many early professors worked full-time for the government. Some later became full-time teachers at Carleton.
The school chose its motto, "Ours the task eternal," in 1951. This phrase comes from a poem by Walt Whitman. It means "We take up the task eternal."
In 1952, a law called the Carleton College Act was passed. This allowed Carleton to grant university degrees. It became the first private, non-religious college in Ontario. The university was run by a Board of Governors and a Faculty Senate.
Carleton started getting land for its current campus in 1947. By 1952, it owned the entire 150-acre property. Much of this land was given by Harry Stevenson Southam, a local businessman. In 1956, construction began on the new campus.
Carleton University's Journey (1957–Present)
In 1957, the Carleton University Act changed the school's name to Carleton University. This made it a public university.
Fast Growth in the 1960s
Carleton moved to its current location in 1959. The first three buildings were the Maxwell MacOdrum Library, Norman Paterson Hall, and the Henry Marshall Tory Building. These became the main academic spots.
Student numbers grew very fast in the 1960s. Full-time students increased from 857 to 7,139. The government also gave more money to universities.
More students came from outside Ottawa. So, Carleton built its first student homes, Lanark and Renfrew Houses, in 1962. At first, boys and girls lived in separate buildings. But in 1969, Carleton became the first university in North America to have co-ed housing. More academic buildings like the Loeb Building and Mackenzie Building were also finished.
In 1967, Saint Patrick's College, a Catholic school, joined Carleton. A new building for it was built on the Carleton campus in 1973.
Steady Expansion (1970–1999)
The Nideyinàn (formerly University Centre) opened in the 1970s. It became a central place for student life. Dunton Tower, which was the tallest academic building in Canada at the time, was completed in 1972.
The Athletics Centre was built in 1974. It has many sports facilities like a pool and gym.
In 1979, Saint Patrick's College fully merged with Carleton. The St. Patrick's Building kept its name to remember the history.
Student numbers grew again in the 1980s. This led to new buildings like the Life Sciences Research Centre. The MacOdrum Library also got an extension.
In 1992, the Carleton University Art Gallery opened. In 1994, all students and staff got Internet and email access.
Modern Developments (2000–Present)
The 2000s brought more money for new buildings. These included new sports facilities and the Human Computer Interaction (HCI) Institute. Nideyinàn also got a big upgrade. In 2008, Frontenac House, a new student residence, was built.
Roseann Runte became Carleton's first female President in 2008. During her time, three new academic buildings were planned and built. These were the Canal Building, River Building (now Richcraft Hall), and the Health Sciences Building. A new residence, Lennox and Addington House, also opened.
Carleton continues to build new facilities. The Advanced Research and Innovation and Smart Environments (ARISE) Building is one example.
In 2018, Carleton bought the Dominion-Chalmers United Church downtown. It is now a community and arts center.
The Nicol Building opened in 2021. It is the new home for the Sprott School of Business. This building cost about $65 million. A large donation from Wes Nicol helped fund it.
Carleton During COVID-19
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Carleton moved classes online in 2020. This was to keep everyone safe. They also temporarily closed sports facilities.
In 2020 and 2021, most classes stayed online. This helped students who had travel difficulties.
When vaccines became available, Carleton required students and staff to be vaccinated to access campus. In 2022, this rule was paused, along with the mask mandate.
