Southern Women at Vassar: The Poppenheim Family Letters, 1882-1916

Setting women's studies in the larger context of American higher education during a …

for an unprecedented third term as president of the United States. Reid initially suppressed the column containing Thompson's endorsement of FDR, but he ultimately printed it, beside a rejoinder from the Tribune editorial staff. His wife and co-publisher Helen Rogers Reid urged Thompson to confine herself, in the future, to nonpolitical subjects-a strange request to make of one of America5s most widely read political commentators. Thompson5s cont…

Colleges and universities are often living monuments to their founders, as either the school or its buildings bear their benefactor's name. Institutional histories, statues, paintings, plaques, biographies, and campus publications tell the college's story-from humble beginnings to presentday glories, praising the generosity, wisdom, and vision of the founder. Such is not the case, however, with Barnard College, the women's undergraduate division …

Women and the Anti-Child Labor Movement in Illinois, 1890-1920
Industrialization, urbanization, and immigration brought problems as well as benefits to Americans living around the turn of the century. People were especially alarmed by the pressures on family life, and what they saw as its disintegration. Yet profound mistrust existed between labor and business, rich and poor, upper and working classes, so that attempts to help families never led anywhere. A very special group of women, college educated and s…
