Summary:
Annual Catalogues of the College typically include most, but not necessarily all,
of the following: lists of trustees (earlier catalogues only), faculty, students
(including the name of their hometown), and alumni, information about the requirements
for admission and promotion, courses of instruction, calendars, tuition and costs,
location, building(s), equipment, campus societies, religious services and the
sabbath, health, discipline, visits, dress, etc.
Interpretive:
Because of the wide variety of information that the early annual catalogues
contain, they are especially useful in helping to develop a better sense of what
life was like at the College in those early years. By examining the catalogs chronologically,
one can chart not only the social development of the College, but also its academic
development. By comparing the College's early annual catalogues with those from
other college's during the same time period(s), one can better assess the College's
role in and contributions to the development of women's education. Status:
