    Alice Freeman Palmer: The Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin http://www.press.umich.edu/13480/alice_freeman_palmer The University of Michigan Press, 1993 Alice Freeman Palmer The Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin Frontispiece photo of Alice Freeman Palmer courtesy of Wellesley College Archives. For the Wednesday lunchers, who each in her way was a New Woman Preface The research for this biography of Alice Freeman Palmer began thirty-five years ago as I put together an exhibit for the Bentley Historical Library honoring the 1957 centennial of the inauguration of the teaching of history at the University of Michigan. Two women who trained in the pioneer history seminar of Charles Kendall Adams caught my attention, Alice Freeman and Lucy Salmon. I was startled to find women pursuing graduate training in history at that early date. I was also caught by the fact that both became distinguished educators with long careers. My interest in Palmer was rekindled thirty years later in the spring of 1987 by a symposium on "Changes in the Lives of Educated Women," sponsored by the Center for the Continuing Education for Women at the University of Michigan. At the symposium I particularized the wider picture of women and higher education in a brief paper on women's experience at the University of Michigan from 1870 to 1987. Palmer's wider influence on women's higher education attracted my attention once more. Alice Freeman Palmer's career was distinguished and certainly not forgotten by scholars. She was a pioneer alumna of the first great American university to admit women; president of Wellesley College and a key figure on its board of trustees during two of its most crucial decades; the first dean at the University of Chicago; and leader, arbiter, and spokeswoman for women's place in higher education during much of her adult life.

    Alice Freeman Palmer: The Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin http://www.press.umich.edu/13480/alice_freeman_palmer The University of Michigan Press, 1993 1 The New Woman At the turn of the century, Alice Freeman Palmer, middle-aged, respected, active, and knowledgeable, represented the very essence of what pundits, commentators, and even a few of her own sex had christened the New Woman. She was one of the new educated women whose professional training was on a par with that of her male colleagues. She had received her baccalaureate with honors from the University of Michigan in 1876 and done graduate work in history. She had earned her own living and been economically independent since she was nineteen, teaching and serving as principal in midwestern secondary schools before accepting a professorship at Wellesley College in 1879. She became Wellesley's first real, and clearly seminal, president on the death in 1881 of Henry Fowle Durant, Wellesley's founder, who personally guided the college during its first years. She resigned the presidency when she married but continued to be a major influence on Wellesley College for the rest of her life from the board of trustees. Her role in higher education expanded, rather than contracted, with her marriage. She became a member of the Massachusetts State Board of Education at a time when teacher training was burgeoning all over the country, an influential supporter of the Annex in its struggle to become Radcliffe College, an advisor to Barnard, an almost perennial officer of Collegiate Alumnae, the rapidly growing and influential organization of college women that later became the American Association of University Women, and the commencement speaker at more graduation exercises than any other women of her era.

    Alice Freeman Palmer: The Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin http://www.press.umich.edu/13480/alice_freeman_palmer The University of Michigan Press, 1993 10 Resolution 1 During Alice Freeman Palmer's last months at the University of Chicago, the Palmers found themselves thinking of their coming European sabbatical. George wrote on one occasion: "And to Europe I find myself looking forward more and more. Can you and I only lie once more in a Venetian chamber alone and hear the water lapping, Harper's smiles or frowns will count for little." 1 And before long they were doing just that. With Chicago finally behind her, the Palmers sailed August 17, 1895, for Boulogne on the Maasdam, which they thought cheaper and cleaner than the Cunard liners. 2 Both were weary. The last few years had been strenuous and demanding. They rode bicycles through the countryside of Normandy and Brittany during the fine September weather. 3 The bicycle as a form of transportation truly liberated its users. It did not, like a horse, have to be fed, housed, or harnessed and was always ready to go. George had succumbed to the bicycle craze in 1892 and had used his wheel as his major transport for two years. Alice was a novice who had sat on a bicycle only three times when they set out on this ambitious adventure. Her legs were stiff the first days and they made way slowly, taking time to inspect Norman churches, ruins, and old villages. 4 When they reached Paris and met up with their trunks which they had sent on ahead, they began housekeeping in the same apartment where they had lived seven years before.

    Alice Freeman Palmer: The Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin http://www.press.umich.edu/13480/alice_freeman_palmer The University of Michigan Press, 1993 8 Accommodation In January of 1888 Alice Palmer opened a new chapter in her life. She was no longer a college president, nor was she ever again to be. But marriage did not change her position as the leading woman in American higher education, a position that was not to be challenged until late in the century by M. Carey Thomas, who became president of Bryn Mawr in 1894. Nor was her visibility dimmed in the world of the professions. Quite possibly Alice Freeman Palmer's stature as an educator was enhanced rather than diminished by her marriage. Media attention to the wedding and the new aura that came with joining the Cambridge establishment contributed to her prestige. She was a well-known, attractive lady who was watched by the press. She did not disappear from view. As William Gardner Hale stated at her memorial service, "Alice Freeman Palmer was greater than Alice Freeman . no more perfect realization of the true accord of spirit, and of accordant aims in the service of others, can ever have been seen." And without marriage Wellesley's princess "would not have become all that she was." 1 She herself was not quite so certain of her position, especially in the early years of her marriage. The immediate reality of her life was that the priorities between marriage and professional interests posed serious questions. 1 For almost all middle-class women of Alice Freeman Palmer's generation, combining marriage and a career was an impossibility.

  • Gender Politics and Experimental Biology at Radcliffe College, 1894–1910’ Gender & History, Vol.29 No.2 August 2017, Pp
    Gender & History ISSN 0953-5233 Jenna Tonn, ‘Extralaboratory Life: Gender Politics and Experimental Biology at Radcliffe College, 1894–1910’ Gender & History, Vol.29 No.2 August 2017, pp. 329–358. Extralaboratory Life: Gender Politics and Experimental Biology at Radcliffe College, 1894–1910 Jenna Tonn One of the practical lessons which students are likely to learn at Radcliffe is that of adaptability to narrow and confined quarters.1 To reach the Radcliffe Zoological Laboratory, Lucy Sprague trekked from Radcliffe’s Fay House across Cambridge to Harvard’s Museum of Comparative Zoology where she climbed the stairs to a small, women’s only room on the fifth floor. She recorded her awareness of circumventing all-male spaces on Harvard’s campus whenever she ‘started off for college’ or ‘screwed up my courage to go to the laboratory’ in her diary from March of 1900 (Figure 1).2 The Dean of Radcliffe had even paid her a personal visit to enforce the college’s strict codes of gender segregation: ‘I was never to walk home through the Harvard Yard. For four years I walked down Massachusetts Avenue and up Quincy Street’.3 In her commutes to dissect specimens at the women’s laboratory – Sprague recalls one that left her drenched from rain – she navigated around established masculine spaces on campus, a vivid window into how gendered thresholds limited women’s access to sites of higher education in biology at the turn of the century. Gender politics between Radcliffe and Harvard Colleges shaped Sprague’s walks across campus. In 1894, Radcliffe incorporated as a women’s administrative unit – not an academic college – associated with the all-male Harvard College.4 As a coordinate institution, Radcliffe did not have the ability to build its own faculty, hire the women it educated or create a professional academic community that reflected its social and political commitments to women in higher education.

    Alice Freeman Palmer: The Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin http://www.press.umich.edu/13480/alice_freeman_palmer The University of Michigan Press, 1993 9 Challenge In 1892 the Palmers, both Alice and George, were offered the chance to pursue a joint academic career at the University of Chicago. For Alice this opportunity offered a happy solution that went beyond her most optimistic dreams to the unresolved dilemma. Here was the perfect alternative to arduous lecture tours and lengthy separations. It was as well the professional challenge of the century. William Rainey Harper and the University of Chicago were providing American academia with a stirring new model. 1 Two great private universities, destined to challenge the old Ivy League establishment, took shape at the turn of the decade. In the Far West, Stanford University, endowed by California railroad magnate Leland Stanford, opened its doors in 1891, and its newly assembled faculty, presided over by President David Starr Jordan, began instruction on a complete and opulent campus. But it was the University of Chicago, despite its makeshift physical plant and constant scrambling for funds in the first years, that posed the deepest challenge to old established ways. Although the new fortune of John D. Rockefeller was to make possible Chicago's realization, Chicago's genesis, unlike Stanford's, was not the product of a benevolent millionaire's imagination. William Rainey Harper, professional educator, Yale professor and Yale Ph.D., had his own dream and his own sense of mission. 1 Pudgy, ebullient, persuasive, Harper left a distinguished and well-paid chair at Yale to put together a new university that emphasized graduate studies and attracted a faculty so distinguished that it could welcome its first students with a reputation for academic excellence already in place.
