来源:雪城大学Syracuse University Libraries’Special Collections Research Center (SCRC) has announced that the Kathrine Switzer Papers have been processed and are now open for research. The archival collection measures 103 linear feet and documents the remarkable life and career of the trailblazing marathoner, broadcast journalist, author, sports and social advocate, and Syracuse alumna.
Switzer '68, G'72 于 1967 年创造了历史,当时她成为第一位正式报名参加波士顿马拉松的女性。面对比赛官员试图将她从赛道上带走的行为,她的坚持成为体育界最具标志性的时刻之一,也是体育界女性权利和平等的灯塔。斯威策随后赢得了 1974 年纽约市马拉松比赛的冠军。
She originated and developed the Avon International Running Circuit, a landmark global women’s running program instrumental in securing the inclusion of the women’s marathon in the 1984 Summer Olympic Games, and earned an Emmy Award for her sports broadcasting work. Switzer was inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame in 2011 for creating positive global social change and was part of the inaugural class of the National Distance Running Hall of Fame.今年 2 月,学校在一场女子篮球比赛中将她标志性的 261 号跑步号码布挂到了 JMA 无线穹顶的椽子上,以此向 Switzer 致敬。
“凯瑟琳·斯维策论文为了解女性体育运动的历史以及改变女性体育运动的不懈倡导提供了一个非凡的窗口,”SCRC 主任 Nicolette A. Dobrowolski 说道。 “随着 2025 年媒体和摄影材料的大量增加,该收藏现在成为体育、性别历史、广播新闻和社会变革研究的更丰富的资源。”
