THE ADMINISTRATION OF PRESIDENT JEWETT Ground was broken for the new building June 4,1 by the founder, in the presence of M. Vassar, Jr., Cornelius Dubois, C. Swan, the Reverend H. Malcolm, and the farmer, workmen, and builders. "Few remarks by M. V. and Malcolm Revd Mr. M. asked God's blessing on the undertaking."2 The building went steadily on through these war years, and the various committees studied and reported on plans for apparatus, museum, library, etc.8 A portrait of the founder, by order of the Trustees, was painted by Elliott, and this and Wright's portrait were exhibited at the Baptist Church, there being no other place of sufficient 1 Entered as June 4, in Minutes of Joint Committee; otherwise confirmatory of the diary.

The first story of the college was up when, November 5,1 the walls were covered for the winter -- "all cleanly completed etc." It is interesting to note that Mr. Vassar prophesied then that, with the vast expenditure of the Government for the war, money would run down to four per cent, as "no place or business actively to invest" occurs; that bank stock will be poor; and that New York Central will go to par within the year; and proposes investments in "1st mortgage Bonds Erie Hudson River and Harlem -- says will pay the oyster supper to the committee if it does not prove true."2 After one year of extensive correspondence and visits to schools and colleges, and participation in constant discussions of details of...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Before Vassar Opened: A Contribution to the History of the Higher, Education of Women in America The movement for the higher education of wo men was so slow in enlisting the interest of the country that it is perhaps not surprising that no full history of it exists. For it was not only slow, but obscure, and came to large recogni tion only after the war, when a great gift con stituted a college that could attract the atten tion of a people absorbed in other and more pressing interests. Since that time our interest has been focused on progress and results, rather than on origins, and history has been subordinated to prophecy. The details of the earlier record, moreover, must be sought in a scattered literature of small interest to any but special students, in catalogues, in government reports, in old newspapers, and in occasional histories of individual institutions and in bio graphies of leaders of more or less distinction. But we cannot continue content with the pres ent or with our hopes, and must ask what early steps preceded what has seemed to most the sudden bursting of a new idea in the his tory of man. That Vassar's opening marked an epoch there can be no question, and the so cial and economic conditions that followed the Civil War responded immediately to the new opportunity; but the results could not have been so immediate and. So encouraging had it not been for the efforts of many pioneers in the North and in the South. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is the result of a study in which the authors identified all of the American women who earned PhD's in mathematics before 1940, and collected extensive biographical and bibliographical information about each of them. By reconstructing as complete a picture as possible of this group of women, Green and LaDuke reveal insights into the larger scientific and cultural communities in which they lived and worked." "The book contains an extended introductory essay, as well as biographical entries for each of the 228 women in the study. The authors examine family backgrounds, education, careers, and other professional activities. They show that there were many more women earning PhD's in mathematics before 1940 than is commonly thought." "The material will be of interest to researchers, teachers, and students in mathematics, history of mathematics, history of science, women's studies, and sociology."--BOOK JACKET.
