Bradford Academy was admitting female students to its halls as early as the 19th century. At a time when women were typically educated at home or sent to finishing schools that specialized in entertaining and domestic arts, the ladies of Bradford Academy experienced the same rigorous classical education as the boys. In this unique and scarce archive, there is a well rounded picture of the course work and intellectual stimulation that these women gained as members of the academy. This large Collection includes the Course Catalogues for the academic years from 1876 to 1892; Examination Schedules for Academic years 1891-1893; Closing Exercise Programs 1885-1886; Graduation Exercise Programs 1890-1894; as well as 5 Programs and handbills for events and board meetings1888-1892; 5 Tuition Bills; and a Certificate and Rules of Scholarship. All in very good condition. Fascinating and extensive collection of an early institution of coeducation.
