Eighteen women representing university women or college graduates from Sub-Sahara Africa joined with seven colleagues from Europe and North and South America to discuss the special needs of women in Africa. They were particularly concerned with the long-range ways and means by which women might achieve a more signifi- cant role in the development of Africa. IFUW members and leaders continued to discuss the role university wom- en might play in providing leadership to identify pressing needs and then do something about these needs not only in Africa but also in Asia and in South America. Their premise was that "if comparatively small sums of money might be available to national or local associations of university women or other women's groups, universities or individuals to undertake imaginative and constructive programs planned by them in their countries or areas; much could be accomplished by broad educational means." 1969 Dr.

Israel is Americas most established ally in the Middle East and the two countries are known to possess a “special relationship” highly valued by the United States. Although diplomatic relations between the two countries drive both American and Israeli foreign policy in the Middle East today, following the establishment of the State of Israel the United States originally did not advance major aid and benefits to the new state.

  • History of the Commission on the Status of Women1
    Short History of the Commission on the Status of Women1 1946: Birth of the Commission on Status of Women United Nations commitments to the advancement of women began with the signing of the UN Charter in San Francisco in 1945. Of the 160 signatories, only four were women - Minerva Bernardino (Dominican Republic), Virginia Gildersleeve (United States), Bertha Lutz (Brazil) and Wu Yi-Fang (China) – but they succeeded in inscribing women’s rights in the founding document of the United Nations, which reaffirms in its preamble “faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women and of Nations large and small”. During the inaugural meetings of the UN General Assembly in London in February 1946, Eleanor Roosevelt, a United States delegate, read an open letter addressed to “the women of the world”: “To this end, we call on the Governments of the world to encourage women everywhere to take a more active part in national and international affairs, and on women who are conscious of their opportunities to come forward and share in the work of peace and reconstruction as they did in war and resistance.” A few days later, a Sub-commission dedicated to the Status of Women was established under the Commission on Human Rights. Many women delegates and representatives of non-governmental organizations believed nevertheless that a separate body specifically dedicated to women’s issues was necessary. The first Chairperson of the Sub- Commission, Bodil Begtrup (Denmark), also requested the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) in May 1946 for a change to full commission status: “Women’s problems have now for the first time in history to be studied internationally as such and to be given the social importance they ought to have.

    Dennis Historical Society Newsletter May 2018 Volume 41, No5 Dennis Historical Society – copyright 2018 Internet: www.dennishistoricalsociety.org E-mail: [email protected] Next Board Meeting, Tuesday, May 8th, 2:00 pm, Dennis Memorial Library, 1020 Old Bass River Road Dennis Members Welcome! Please send information & stories for the newsletter to Dave Talbott at the DHS Website email address: [email protected] The Untold Story Code Girls by Liza Mundy is the untold story of the American Women Code Breakers of World War II. Recruited from small Southern towns and posh New England colleges, more than 10,000 American women served in the U.S. Army and Navy as code breakers during World War II. The story of their work, which helped shorten the war and save thousands of lives, has not been told until now. Many of us have watched the PBS television series “The Bletchley Circle” and know of the wartime code breaking efforts in England. Now thanks to our own Bob Poskitt, we will learn about such efforts in the United States, and a connection to our Society! Two women quoted in the book are Elizabeth Reynard and her cousin, Virginia Gildersleeve, ladies very important in the founding of the Dennis Historical Society. Elizabeth was a retired Barnard College professor when she purchased the Captain Theophilus Baker House and Buildings at the corner of Main Street and Trotting Park Road in South Dennis in the 1950s. She named the house “Jericho” after the city in the Bible whose “walls were falling down.” Following her death in January 1962, the restoration of the house and grounds was continued by Virginia Gildersleeve, Dean Emeritus of Barnard, who then gifted the property to the Town of Dennis in 1962.

  • Dzvinka Stefanyshyn Professor Jacoby Annie Nathan Meyer and Barnard College’S Exclusivity
    Dzvinka Stefanyshyn Professor Jacoby Annie Nathan Meyer and Barnard College’s Exclusivity Since its founding years, Columbia University has always been a center of wealth and intellect in the city of New York. In 1774, its founders had wanted to establish an institution that was exclusive to wealthy white males, yet be a pillar of one of the most influential colleges in the world. Illuminating this sense of exclusion, the university made it no secret that it would not allow women nor Blacks to enter its gates as students. These exclusions, however, were not unique to Columbia University. It was merely a reflection of the kind of society that individuals lived in at the time – beginning with ideals of white supremacism in the Colonial period that extended out into the early twentieth century. As the nation was evolving, breaking free from British rule, some groups such as women sought change in the education system. Yet, even with the founding of women’s colleges that began to take root in the northeastern states, New York City was lacking such an institution. Today, there are several prominent women’s colleges in the United States, which are called the Seven Sisters. The first of the Seven Sisters was Mount Holyoke, founded in 1837 by Mary Lyon. It first served as a female seminary that was meant to promote higher education amongst women during the first half of the 19th century. Mount Holyoke Female Seminary was initially chartered as a teaching seminary in 1836, but with the institution officially became a College after fundraising from the Trustees and introduction of entrance exams.
