Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Report Submitted to the Trustees of Cornell University: In Behalf of a Majority of the Committee on Mr. Sage´s Proposal to Endow a College for Women; Albany, February 13, 1872 Gentlemen: - The Committee appointed at your last meeting to examine and report concerning the establishment of an institution for the education of women in connection with the University, as well as in regard to any proffer of an endowment for that purpose, respectfully submit the following Report. Your Committee began at once an extended correspondence with persons in various parts of the country whose experience in the education of the sexes together, gives their statements value; they also obtained various documents bearing on the question. But in this correspondence they did not consult the authorities of colleges which had never tried the system. They had before them, already, a long report based on information thus obtained - the report made to the Regents of the University of Michigan several years since - when the subject was first broached in that State. The Regents´ committee wrote to a large number of eminent gentlemen connected with the venerable institutions of learning in the older States, and to a very small number of others. The result was what might have been expected. It was as if the Japanese authorities aroused to the necessity of railroads and telegraphs, had corresponded with eminent Chinese philosophers regarding the ethics of the subject, instead of sending persons to observe the working of railroads and telegraphs where they are already in use. Of course, the great majority of responses to that committee were overwhelmingly against the admission of women.
