Built in 1931, Hagen Hall first served as home to the Ottawa Normal School (later the University of Ottawa Teachers’ College), which itself was founded in 1927 to train Francophone teachers for Ontario elementary schools. Its program of studies, along with that of the School of Nursing (opened in 1933), attracted a large number of women to the campus. The Teachers’ College was integrated into the new Faculty of Education in 1969. Today, Hagen Hall houses the offices of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, The Institute of Fiscal Studies and Democracy, and the offices of Institutional Research and Planning. The building is named after the faculty’s first Dean, biochemist Dr. Paul Hagen, whose tenure extended from 1969 to 1983.
