Excerpt from Shall Women Now Be Excluded From Adelbert College of Western Reserve University: An Argument Presented to the Board of Trustees, Nov; 7th, 1884 At a meeting of the Faculty of Adelbert College of Western Reserve University, held June 9th, 1884, "it was voted that the Trustees be informed that the Faculty are of the opinion that after the Autumn examinations of 1886, young women should not be admitted to co-education in this College." This vote was approved by all the members of the Faculty except the President, who was absent from the meeting and did not know that any such action was contemplated. This minute was transmitted to the Board of Trustees at their meeting, June 18th. The Board appointed a Committee to examine the question and directed that they report to the Board at a special meeting to be held Nov. 7th. This Committee consisted of Hon. W. I. Chamberlain, Mr. Joseph Perkins, Hon. S. E. Williamson, Mr. Samuel Andrews, Mr. L. E. Holden, Mr. W. H. Doan and Rev. Carroll Cutler. The Committee sought information from a very large number of the Presidents and Professors of those Colleges and other higher schools of learning, who had had experience in the joint education of men and women, and from a considerable number of those who had had no experience, but who were thought best able to present the arguments against it. The Committee met first on Sept. 15th, to consider the subject and compare the testimony which they had received, and again on Nov. 6th, to determine on a report to be made to the Board. The majority of the Committee, consisting of Mr. Chamberlain, Mr. Perkins, Mr. Doan and Mr. Cutler, agreed to a report concluding as follows: "In view of such and such like facts and opinions, your Committee beg leave to recommend that the action urged by the Faculty, viz: ´To refuse, after the Autumn examinations of 1886, to admit young women to co-education in Adelbert College,´ be not adopted by this Board of Trustees." Mr. Williamson and Mr. Andrews presented a minority report, urging that no women be hereafter admitted to Adelbert College. Mr. Holden was absent, but concurred in the views of the majority. At the meeting of the Board of Trustees on Nov. 7th, the recommendation of the majority report was adopted by the Board, after a long and thorough discussion of the entire subject, by a vote of 12 ayes to 6 noes, one member not voting. After the reading of the majority report the following paper was read. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
