  • Alice Freeman Palmer: the Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin the University of Michigan Press, 1993
    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 3 Commitment In June of 1872 Alice Freeman, accompanied by her father, traveled from Binghamton, New York, to Ann Arbor, Michigan. Their route took them across Canada from Niagara Falls to Windsor, Ontario, and they changed trains in Detroit. Alice made this trip several times over the next four years. The journey was long, tedious, and she had to spend a night on the train, which arrived in Detroit in the morning. But she usually traveled by drawing room, purchased a berth for the night, provided herself with an ample hamper of lunch from home, and enjoyed the journey. 1 This first trip with her father combined the excitement of academic exploration and new geographical vistas. She had never before ventured beyond the Susquehanna River valley. Alice and James Freeman spent commencement week in Ann Arbor. Their purpose was to secure Alice's admission to the University of Michigan, but their visit also allowed them to assess the institution and the town where Alice was to spend most of the next four years. In the 1870s, Michigan's graduation festivities lasted several days, and candidates for admission the next fall were examined along with the festivities which included baccalaureate services, receptions, class day exercises, and commencement proper. The Freemans seem to have remained in Ann Arbor for the full program. Madelon Stockwell, the first woman admitted to the University of Michigan, only two years before, gave one of the commencement orations, as would Alice four years later.

  • Alice Freeman Palmer: the Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin the University of Michigan Press, 1993
    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.

  • Jane Addams, a Member of Chicago AAUW
    Chicago Branch AAUW Celebrates the Life of Our Illustrious Member Jane Addams From THE FIRST FIFTY YEARS (1889 – 1939) by Janet Miller Prepared for the AAUW Chicago Branch Centennial October, 1889 In 1892, the Branch had over 100 members, ranking in size behind only Boston and Philadelphia. At the December 1892 meeting, Bertha Honoré Palmer spoke on the Columbian Exposition and the Executive Committee agreed to aid in “scientific research work” and assist with guides for the Exposition, for which it received a diploma and a medal of appreciation. Along with other women’s organizations, the Branch exhibited materials at the Exposition. At the same meeting the question of supporting a Hull House resident was raised. In January 1893, the Branch voted to support a Hull House fellow, with the selection to be made by Jane Addams, who was a Branch member and a Branch Committee [Chair]. Illinois born Julia Lathrop, a close associate of Addams, was selected. Julia Lathrop is best known for her local, state and national reform of hospitals, schools and mental institutions and her work with juveniles and immigrants in Chicago. The Branch did much to aid her early work and the work of other members of the Hull House group. In December 1893, Florence Kelley, also a Hull House resident and chief inspector of factories in Illinois, spoke on The Formation of a Purchaser’s League to Protect Women and Children. An “earnest discussion” followed Kelley’s presentation and “the formation of such a league was urged by all.” The minutes continue: It was suggested by members that a committee should be appointed from the A.C.A and that this committee with other committees appointed should correspond with the large stores and ascertain where their goods are made.

  • The Nineteenth Century Experience of Women College Students: a Profile of the Women and Their Motivations
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 292 745 SO 019 065 AUTHOR Kelly, Diana K. TITLE The Nineteenth Century Experience of Women College Students: A Profile of the Women and Their Motivations. PUB DATE 9 Dec 87 NOTE 51p. PUB TYPE Reports - Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Access to Education; Coeducation; *Educational Eackgiound; *Educational History; *Educational Opportunities; Equal Education; Higher Education; Social Science Research; *Womens Education; Womens Studies ABSTRACT The early women college students were pioneers. They had a difficult time obtaining an opportunity for a college education, because college was not thought to be necessary for the women of the 19th century. By overcoming many obstacles, these early college graduates were able to reap the rewards of an intellectually stimulating career. This study of women's struggle for equal education: (1) outlines the historical background of women's education in the United States; (2) provides a chronology of educational opportunities; (3) profiles early women college students; (4) delineates the objectives of early women college educators; and (5) discusses the careers of college graduates. Female seminaries were the earliest opportunities for formal education. In 1839, the Georgia Female College opened in Macon, Georgia as the first college for women to award the bachelor's degree. With the opening of this school, opportunities for women continued to grow. The women who were founders of colleges and the professors in early women's colleges provided the necessary role models and encouragement for women college students. Highly motivated pioneer women college students completed their college education and attained greater accomplishments. Today's college educators should know that pioneer college students from different ethnic groups are struggling for a college education and need the same kind of encouragement that early women pioneers had.
