Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Admission of Women to Universities: Testimony Gathered in Connection With an Essay in the North American Review for January, 1833, on University Education for Women
The testimony, to which reference was made on p. 33 of the Review for January, is therefore now presented.
In discussing this testimony, the objectionable term, co education, has been frequently employed, not because there is any valid reason for its existence, but only in consideration of temporary popular usage. The-word was coined, scarcely more than a dozen years ago, to express certain conditions under which society deemed it improper for young women to have the benefit of higher educational facilities. It will be generally discarded with the decline of prejudice.
