Women In An Evangelical Community: Oberlin 1835-50, Lori D. Ginzberg Jan 1978

Women In An Evangelical Community: Oberlin 1835-50, Lori D. Ginzberg

Honors Papers

Oberlin College is frequently mentioned in connection with women's education, women's rights, or the struggle for women's emancipation. The following passage from the 1834 First Circular is invariably cited: Oberlin's founders strove for"… the elevation of female character, by bringing within the reach of the misjudged and neglected sex, all the instructive privileges which hitherto have unreasonably distinguished the leading sex from theirs."
