Evanston College for Ladies : ウィキペディア英語版 | Evanston College for Ladies The Evanston College for Ladies, in Evanston, Illinois, was a female-only Methodist-affiliated institution closely linked with Northwestern University. The college was established in 1871 as a boarding house "in a building at Chicago Avenue between Greenwood and Lake Streets, formerly occupied by the North-Western Female College (no connection to the University). The 236 students in attendance included Sarah Rebecca Roland, later Northwestern University’s first female graduate"〔(http://www.library.northwestern.edu/archives/exhibits/architecture/building.php?bid=14 )〕 and offered supplementary coursework for women working towards degrees at Northwestern (which became coeducational in 1869). "Despite having popular opinion against them, a group of Evanston women led by Mary Haskin conceived of a nurturing, intellectual college run entirely by women."〔(Frances Willard: more than just prohibition )〕 The first dean of the college was Frances Willard, and the college was run by female trustees and an all-female Board of Directors. While the college provided mainly room and board, it also offered a Bachelor of Arts degree that combined classes from Northwestern and the College. The institution also operated a college preparatory program open to both boys and girls. Evanston College for Ladies merged with Northwestern University in 1873.〔(http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/196981/Evanston-College-for-Ladies )〕 Upon merging with Northwestern University, Willard became Northwestern's first Dean of Women. ==References==
