material relating to the College's name changes in 1912 and 1919 Summary:
See above Interpretive:
In 1912,
the faculty, administration, and alumnae successfully petitioned the Trustees
of the College to change the College's name from Greensboro Female College to
Greensboro College for Women because they felt that the term "female"
used in conjunction with "college" demonstrated a lack of progress in
terms of educational development. And in 1919, the young women of the College
and the alumnae successfully petitioned the Trustees to change the College's name
from Greensbro College for Women to simply Greensboro College because they felt
that the term "for women" was unnecessary. Status:
