Women's Education By: Danielle Issa

What is the problem that is being addressed by the reformers? Almost all institutions to get a higher education were blocked off to women. - Example: Elizabeth Blackwell

What is the problem that is being addressed by the reformers? - Early in the 1800's women were not allowed to continue school after grammar school. If they wished, they could continue their studies privately because women were considered feeble minded, intellectually challenged, and could not study beyond grammar school.

What is the problem that is being addressed by the reformers? "The elevation of the female character, bringing within the reach of the misjudge and neglected sex, all the instructive privileges which hitherto have unreasonably distinguished the leading sex from theirs." - Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anothony, Dr, Elizabeth Blackwell, Grimke sister, Amelia Bloomer. Were women who advocated for women's rights which included a right to an education at a higher level.

What have been the causes and impacts of the problem? The "cult of domesticity" became the dominant concept of a woman's role in society. cult of domesticity - The feminine ideal, according to this theory, was that of wife and mother. Women should remain within their appropriate sphere—that is, the domestic sphere—and should not involve themselves in public or political affairs. - People say it not fit for women to extend their time in school, they had there feminine ideals about women.

What have been the causes and impacts of the problem? [Impacts] It opened women's eyes to realize they deserve an education just as much as any man. This is one step closer to being each others equals. Example: Emma Willard; "founded the highly successful Troy Female Seminary, which offered a collegiate curriculum to women; brought up for the first time the issue of privately endowed educational institutions for women; and publicized the need for trained women teachers."Troy Female Seminary

What is the solution that is being put forward? Many schools started opening up to women, because of meetings/rallies they have put together. Example: Seneca Falls Convention, a gathering a female reformers who drew up a, "Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions." Oberlin College; In Ohio, was the first coeducational school, and saw it's first female student graduate in Problem: women were general barred from educational opportunities.

What is the solution that is being put forward?

What effect did the movement have on the problem? Emma Willard: "Willard petitioned Governor DeWitt Clinton of New York and the state legislature in behalf of a program of state-financed schools for girls. In her influential Plan for Improving Female Education, published at her own expense in 1819, she skillfully argued the benefits of such a program, pointing out that educated women would make better wives, mothers, and elementary schoolteachers. She was also the first to call for private funding of schools that could teach women of limited means." DeWitt Clinton

What effect did the movement have on the problem? Mary Lyon: "Established Mount Holyoke Seminary in The school offered classes practically the same as those at a men's college and it offered a complete education to women. Six other women colleges were founded as a result of Mary Lion's success, Barnard College, Bryn Mawr, Radicliff, Smith, Wellesley, and Vassar. The seven colleges were known as the Seven Sisters and they were considered female counterparts to male Ivy League colleges."

Does this problem still exist today? Explain. No, it does not. - We live in a world where mostly all schools are coeducational. - It's quite ironic because now some parents want their children to be going to an all boy or all girl schools. - Where as in the Antebellum period, women wanted to be treated as equals and to be able to receive the same education as men did.

3 Questions What did Mary Lyon establish in 1837? what did it do? What Emma Willard publish and write at her own expense? Who is Elizabeth Blackwell?
