Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Higher Education of Women: Presented to the Corporation of McGill University, October, 1884 In considering from a practical point of View the provision for the higher education of women, two subjects Specially attract our attention. First, the Means and Methods of Educational Train ing, and Secondly, the Examinations and Distinctions to which education leads. These are no doubt closely connected, since education without any examinations or degrees is deprived of its most valuable tests and stimuli, and since examinations tend to guide the efforts of educators while on the other hand examina tions without adequate means of genuine education become mere inducements to cramming. These two departments of the work may, however, be considered separately, with some advantage in so far as the clearness of our conce tions is concerned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James McGill is an important figure in Canada's history in his own right. The bequest made in 1813 for the founding of a university of which one college was to bear his name only increased that significance. The political tensions of Lower Canada delayed implementation of his plans for sixteen years; and then it was only by incorporating the Montreal Medical Institution as Faculty of Medicine that in 1829 a beginning could be made. Thirty years after his death, the Faculty of Arts was finally established, but not until the trustee-body known as the Royal Institution for the Advancement of Learning was moved from Quebec City to Montreal and established as its board of governors did McGill College begin to revive and hold out promise of a respectable future.

Book excerpt: 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 The question for decision is not the original question, whether women shall be admitted to the privileges of this College. That question was decided long ago. They are admitted. The doors have been open to them for twelve years. It is not the abstract question, whether the education offered here is the best for women or is good for women. It is not the theoretical question, whether the education of women ought to be identical with that of men. Much might be said on both these questions, pro and con, but it would all be aside from the point now before us. These are ever lasting questions always before the debating clubs. It is equally de batable whether the education offered here is the best for men. Many people now maintain that the college course, as we have it here, is neither best, nor good for men. Probably every member of this Board would declare that in some respect or other. And in some degree or other, this course is not first best, perhaps that it is not second rate; and some members have openly declared that it isnot good enough to allow them to send their sons to the College. But the comparative goodness of the course of study and instruction for men or women is not the subject now to be debated and decided. This College (and all others) offers a certain course, or certain courses, of study to the public. We are like a merchant offering goods for sale. He offers what he has and what he thinks some people will wish to buy. He caters to the market in his own line to the best of his ability. Those who like his goods or think they cannot do better, can take them at the prices named. He cannot compel a purchaser. Just so with our courses of study. We do not compel man or woman to take them. We only offer them. They do as they please. If women do not like them or find them adapted to their needs, the College will not be crowded by numbers of women. The question before us is simply this: Shall the privileges of education in this College, such as they are, which have been offered to women for twelve years, henceforth be refused to them? Or, in other words: Shall women now be turned out from this College? The women are here, here because they wish to be; not because it was Hobson's choice, this or nothing. It is no more true on the part of the women and their parents, than it IS on the part of. The men and their parents, that they would have gone elsewhere if they could, or that it was only a sad necessity which brought them to a College where men were admitted. It is no more true of the men now in College or of those who have been here since 1873, than it was of those who were here from 1826 to 1873, that it was an unpleasant necessity which brought them to this College or kept them in it. From 1826 to 1873, the period before women were admitted, only 44 per cent of those who entered this College graduated. From 1873 to 1884, the period in which women have been admitted, 57 per cent of those who entered have graduated. These figures show how untrue it is to say that the presence of women drives away men to graduate elsewhere. It has had precisely the opposite effect.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Higher Education for Women in Great Britain The movement for the education of girls is Of recent growth, dating back less than a century, to the decade 1840 50.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Higher Education of Woman: An Address Delivered at the Opening of Queen's College, Kingston, Canada, Session 1871-72 But if the fmovemeut Spoken of does not seek to withdraw women from the work of their households, the question will naturally be asked, What is the object at which it aims 'z lt endeavours to accomplish a'rcform in the same direction in which every previous im p1ovement in the re ation of the sexes has pro ceeded, - towards the elevation of woman from a state of real or virtual slavery to man. That is now required is that this tendency of civilization shall be completed by at last ao cording to women perfect equality with men in reference to social position and legal rights. The conscience of Christendom undoubtedly re volts against any explicit subjection of the one sex to the other; and consequently it is only necessary to point out the inequality in the pri vileges accorded to the two sexes, in order to prove the rightfulness of the demand for some reform. Now, there are various ways in which this subject may be approached, as there are various aspects in which this inequal ity of rights is exhibited. The point of view from which the question will be examined at present, is one from which the necessity of some concession to women is peculiarly clear.
