| Description |
The Beyond Suffrage Project was initiated to examine the impact women have had on northern Utah. Weber State University explored and documented women past and present who have influenced the history of the community, the development of education, and are bringing the area forward for the next generation. The project looked at how the 19th Amendment gave women a voice and representation, and was the catalyst for the way women became involved in the progress of the local area. The project examines the 50 years (1870-1920) before the amendment, the decades to follow and how women are making history today. |

A background of images of Lori Memmott Brown and the full text of her clip, 'When I ran for student body president, I did this and then I ran for student body president and I ran against four different guys. And they were all good guys. And my two buttons say, "Memmott Student Body President" and then one of these boys, I won't mention his name, had these buttons made--you used to make buttons--that said, 'Keep the Priesthood in Office.' She took them for a women's rights class or something and it really kind of offended me. I mean, I wasn't threatened by it, but I thought, 'Really? Really? What do you think? What do you think I'm coming from?' So some people were not very happy when I ran and won. I was the first student body president in the state that was female. I'm okay with that.' |
