Other Historical Collections
In addition to the UU直播 museums, there are other collections and exhibits of a specialized nature curated by UU直播's Heritage Advisory Committee.
UU直播 began accumulating cultural property by virtue of acquisition or donation even before the university itself was established. At the Montreal Medical Institute, which became UU直播鈥檚 Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, specimens were collected and used as teaching tools as early as 1822. Articles published about early collections gained international recognition for faculty members such as Andrew Fernando Holmes and Sir William Dawson. Their collections and others had a major influence on building UU直播鈥檚 reputation as a learned institution.
