Excerpt from General Catalogue of Ripon College: 1851 to 1894
The preparation of this first General Catalogue of Ripon College has presented difficulties due to the non-publication of annual catalogues for most years earlier than 1864, and to the imperfect character of early records. No records under the first charter have been found, and therefore it has not been possible to give the officers of the first Board of Trustees, and it is feared that the list of Instructors for these earliest years is not complete. No records of the Faculty of earlier date than 1871 are now known. It has therefore been necessary to have recourse, by correspondence and otherwise, to those whose memory covers the earlier years, and to such indirect evidence as can be found. It is hoped that there are no serious errors; but many facts are without doubt omitted which continued search will supply, and which it is hoped may be found for the next edition.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of biographical entries for graduates of Ripon College, which was chartered in 1851 and by 1864 had admitted its first class of both men and women. Ripon was one of the first coeducational colleges in the United States and it pioneered the admission of women into higher education; a move considered unusual and controversial during the mid-1800s. The graduates featured in this compilation represent the first classes to complete their studies at the college. Some went on to achieve great things in the fields of law, medicine, journalism, and education. Others found success as farmers, merchants, and religious leaders. Many Ripon graduates played significant roles in their communities and helped to shape the history of the United States. This book provides valuable insights into the lives of these early graduates and the role that Ripon College played in their educational and professional development.
