Voices of Old Strathcona: Ruth Hargrave

Ruth Hargrave's Voices of Old Strathcona interview is the subject of today's From the Vaults episode. Describing her upbringing and childhood, Hargrave provides a clear picture of growing up in Old Strathcona. As one of the first women who attended the University of Alberta, Hargrave also describes her work in achieving her degree. These interviews were recorded in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s. Both social attitudes and language standards have changed since that time.  Some opinions expressed and language used may be offensive to listeners today.
