Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the events and significant players in the founding and early years of Bryn Mawr College. The author, then president of the Johns Hopkins University, places the institution within the context of the late 19th-century American higher education landscape, where the education of women was rapidly evolving. The author includes the speeches given at the college's dedication and inaugural events, which illuminate the challenges and ideals faced by the founders. The book goes on to convey the themes of a college education and the balance it should strike between freedom and authority, tradition and progress. The author ultimately lauds Bryn Mawr's forward-thinking Group System, which allows students to customize their education. The book is a valuable contribution to the history of women's education, offering insights into the complexities of balancing tradition and innovation in higher education.
