In the early twentieth century, a party was held each year to honor the school’s founder, Episcopal Bishop Joseph Horsfall Johnson. Ellen Browning Scripps, an important benefactor, described it in a 1916 letter to her sister, Virginia. She wrote that there was ice cream, an “immense birthday cake,” speeches and toasts “with the occasional outbreak of college cries from the side tables.”1 Scripps, too, was honored on her birthday, an event now known as “EBS Day.” Every year, alumni and friends sing “Happy Birthday” while a representative from the Scripps Foundation blows out the candle on her cake. In 2009, The Bishop’s School celebrates another birthday, its own. For the past one hundred years, the school has prepared young women and men to meet the demands of a college education. An independent day-school affiliated with the Episcopal Church, it values intellectual, artistic, and athletic excellence. It also maintains a tradition of community service that dates back to World War I. This article focuses on the early years of The Bishop’s School. It explores the collaboration between Bishop Johnson and the Scripps sisters, emphasizing their exceptional vision for women’s education at a time when few girls finished high school, much less prepared for college. The article also points out the importance of Progressive-era attitudes on the development of the school. The founders’ passion for efficiency, economy, and social justice influenced the school’s culture and curriculum. It also led them to patronize Irving Gill, an advocate of a reformed style of architecture. The result would be a campus of remarkable simplicity and serenity. Women’s Education The Bishop’s School was founded at a time of expanding educational opportunities for women. Between 1870 and 1900, the number of women enrolled in colleges and universities multiplied eightfold, from 11,000 to 85,000. Women’s colleges such as Vassar (1865), Wellesley (1875), Smith (1875), and Bryn Mawr (1884), became national institutions. Seminaries such as Mount Holyoke, Mills, and Rockford, were re-chartered as colleges in the 1880s. Women attended private co- educational institutions including Boston College, Cornell, Oberlin, Swarthmore, the University of Chicago, and the University of Southern California. They also enrolled at large state universities in California, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Molly McClain, associate professor and chair of the History Department at the University of San Diego, is co-editor of The Journal of San Diego History. She was a boarding student at The Bishop’s School in the late 1970s. She is very grateful for the assistance of Judy Harvey Sahak, Librarian, Ella Strong Denison Library, Scripps College, and the staff of The Bishop’s School. 235 The Journal of San Diego History The Bishop’s School offered an innovative curriculum designed to help students pass the rigorous entrance exams required by women’s colleges like Vassar and Smith.

Although elite men’s colleges such as Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Columbia did not admit women, reformers continued to press for access. Their efforts resulted in the creation of Barnard (1889) and Radcliffe (1894) as affiliated women’s colleges.2 In the early years, however, relatively few women took up the challenge of higher education. Some public high schools prepared their students to attend teacher-training normal schools at state colleges and universities. Most, however, did not offer a curriculum that would help their students pass the rigorous college entrance exams required by elite institutions. Private girls’ schools, meanwhile, 236 The Bishop’s School, 1909-2009 generally emphasized the kind of female “accomplishments” that would prepare women for good marriages and lives of leisure. According to Andrea Hamilton, “The new women’s colleges faced the reality that very few young women had adequate academic preparation to undertake true college-level work.”3 At the turn of the century, educational reformers established independent girls’ schools that would prepare women for college.

(ILC) added 11 profiles of immigrants who founded U.S.-based, not-for-profit organizations to a new Social Entrepreneur section of its online Immigrant Entrepreneur Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame was launched in 2012 to honor the entrepreneurial spirit of immigrants in the U.S. and pay tribute to individual immigrants who have made significant contributions to American society. These 11 social entrepreneurs are shining examples of how the drive and spirit of American immigrants can be used to benefit others. Two of the nation’s most influential environmental organizations were founded by immigrants. John Muir, an immigrant from Scotland, co-founded the Sierra Club, and Dennis Puleston, an immigrant from England, co-founded the Environmental Defense Fund. The efforts of these men led to the passage of significant environmental protection laws and the implementation of the National Park system. Three U.S. immigrants have impacted many thousands of lives around the world through prestigious international aid organizations. Bernard Amadei, an immigrant from France, founded Engineers Without Borders. Zainab Salbi, an immigrant from Iraq, co-founded Women for Women International, and Elizabeth Silverstein, an immigrant from Austria, co-founded Counterpart International.

  • Ellen Browning Scripps Distinguished Alumni Award Karin Winner Class of 1962
    2008 Ellen Browning Scripps Distinguished Alumni Award Karin Winner Class of 1962 She describes herself as adventurous, passionate, intuitive, and demanding. A member of the El Miradero yearbook staff at Bishop’s, Karin Winner ’62 went on to major in journalism at the University of Southern California. However, her road to college was not a direct one. She was urged to postpone college and instead play tennis on the European circuit. Her talent was that good and, through some outside financial help, she honed her skills at the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. But Karin made a critical choice and opted for college, initially at the University of Wisconsin before transferring to USC. Very much a Mighty Gold, in addition to tennis Karin played field hockey, volleyball, and basketball while at Bishop’s. She believes that Bishop’s provided the forum for developing the attributes of a good person - manners, philosophy, spirituality, competitiveness, and humility. Karin’s first job after college was at a trade journal followed by a position at Women’s Wear Daily, where she had the opportunity to interview Rose Kennedy. She was later named West Coast editor for the publication and was integral in starting W magazine. Karin arrived at the San Diego Union in 1976 to work as a special features editor. Her rise to more managerial positions was swift. Just one year later, she was named assistant city editor, and a year after that, she became assistant manager editor- features. By 1986, Karin was working as the managing editor of the paper. In 1991 Helen Copley gave Karin the weighty job of overseeing the merger of the Union and Tribune papers.

  • Christian and Buddhist Motifs in the Artistry of Japanese American Author Hisaye Yamamoto”
    Chua, C.L. (2016). “The Crucifix and the Lotus: Christian and Buddhist Motifs in the Artistry of Japanese American Author Hisaye Yamamoto”. The Delhi University Journal of the Humanities and the Social Sciences 3: 15-25. The Crucifix and the Lotus: Christian and Buddhist Motifs in the Artistry of Japanese American Author Hisaye Yamamoto CHENG LOK CHUA1 California State University, Fresno ABSTRACT Religious motifs have an integral role in several key short stories by the renowned twentieth-century Japanese American author and sometime religio-social activist Hisaye Yamamoto. For instance, the subtle interplay of Christian themes and the story’s events leads Yamamoto’s readers to an uneasy confrontation with the Christian problem of evil in her “Yoneko’s Earthquake.” A similar subtle dynamic brings the readers of Yamamoto’s “The Legend of Miss Sasagawara” to interrogate the viability of Buddhism in the face of American socio-political injustice. Keywords: Japanese American Literature; Christianity, Buddhism, U.S. in World War II The Asian diaspora to Anglophone North America has persevered during the past 150 years despite repeated attempts to suppress it, and it has resulted in a bumper crop of Asian American and Asian Canadian writers who are winning literary prizes, scaling bestseller lists, and even busting into Hollywood box offices. One has only to think of Asian Canadian works like Joy Kogawa's Obasan or Michael Ondaatje’s The English Patient and of Asian American titles such as Amy Tan's Joy Luck Club or Maxine Hong Kingston's The Woman Warrior (which, according to a survey conducted by the Modern Language Association of America [MLA], became at one point “the most widely taught book by a living author in U.S.
