By introducing new voices and viewpoints into the literature on the history of higher education from the early nineteenth century through the 1970s, these essays address the meaning diverse groups of women have made of their education or their exclusion from education, and delve deeply into how those experiences were shaped by concepts of race, ethnicity, religion, national origin. Nash demonstrates how an examination of the history of women’s education can transform our understanding of educational institutions and processes more generally.Historical studies in education.WomenEducation (Higher)United StatesHistory19th centuryWomenEducation (Higher)United StatesHistory20th centuryGender identity in educationWomenEducation (Higher)HistoryWomenEducation (Higher)HistoryGender identity in education.376.650973/09034Nash Margaret A.1959-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299541703321Women’s Higher Education in the United States2495592UNINA
