Excerpt from The Polyscope of 1932, Vol. 31
With this background the meaning of Bradley may be understood. First, Bradley means equal opportunity for all. Neither race, co or, sex, social status, political or religious creeds could bar one from the door of opportunity which opened in Bradley Hall. At first Mrs. Bradley planned simple courses in the mechanic and household arts for the training of children who came from less Favored homes. Then she came into touch with the late President Harper of the University of Chicago and was led to include in her plans a full high school course and two years of college.
Second, Bradley stands for the qualities of industry, independence and usefulness. Mrs. Bradley was a worker. She, in common with the housewives of the forties and fifties, knew what it was to labor in the production and preparation of clothing and food for her family. By this experience she learned that independence and usefulness come through intelligent and efficient industry. She, therefore, stated in the funda mental charter of the school that the chief aim of the Institute shall be to furnish its students withthe means of living independent, industrious, and useful lives.
