Early College Women - 0 views

Jacqueline Alley on 13 Nov 13This site takes a look into women who attended college during the late 1800s and early 1900s. These women were determined to get an education. In 1870, only .7% of students were women. By 1920, it was still only 7.6%. It wasn't until the Women's Movement that woman made a significant appearance in colleges. I thought this site gave a good background to the presence of women in college before and leading up to the Women's Movement, which helps understand the impact the movement had.
