Notes

The first Winter Carnival at Waterloo Lutheran University was held in 1961. The Winter Carnival and the Miss Canadian University Queen Pageant were organized and run entirely by the students of Waterloo Lutheran University. The event featured outdoor activities, ice sculpture contests, musical concerts, sporting events, and the Miss Canadian University Queen Pageant. The last Queen Pageant hosted by WLU was in 1970.

Wilfrid Laurier University is located in Waterloo, Ontario. It began in 1911 as the Evangelical Lutheran Seminary of Canada. In 1924 Waterloo College was established, providing courses in post-secondary education. In 1960 Waterloo College became Waterloo Lutheran University, and in 1973 changed its name to Wilfrid Laurier University.
