==History==
Mills College was initially founded as the '' Young Ladies Seminary'' at Benicia in 1852. It was under the leadership of Mary Atkins, a graduate of Oberlin College. In 1865, Susan Tolman Mills, a graduate of Mount Holyoke College (then ''Mount Holyoke Female Seminary''), and her husband, Cyrus Mills, bought the ''Young Ladies Seminary'' renaming it ''Mills Seminary''. In 1871, the school was moved to Oakland, California and the school was incorporated in 1877. The school became Mills College in 1885. In 1890, after serving for decades as principal (under two presidents as well), Susan Mills became the president of the college and held the position for 19 years. Beginning in 1906 the seminary classes were progressively eliminated. In 1921, Mills granted its first master's degrees. From 1945-1947, the college sponsored an ambitious literary magazine, ''Pacific'', which published work from established and emerging writers (including students) in its ten issues.
