Radcliffe Dean Claims Liberal Arts Studies Kept Alive by Women

"College women are keeping the liberal arts alive in this age of scientific emphasis," asserted Mrs. Wilma A. Kirby-Miller, Dean of Instruction at Radcliffe. Speaking at a meeting in Agassiz sponsored by the Radcliffe Parents of Boston, she justified her assertion with the fact that more than half of Radcliffe majors in the humanities.

Dean Kirby-Miller was one of five administrators who discussed "Radcliffe Education and Your Daughter" at the meeting.

Mildred P. Sherman, Dean of College Relations, traced the history of the Harvard-Radcliffe relationship, and defined the present situation as "Radcliffe is co-ed, but Harvard isn't." Dean Bundy added that "Harvard may not be good for Radcliffe, but Radcliffe is a good thing for Harvard."
