    I came across this awesome picture today. This is the graduates from the class of 1899. I was doing a little research and I think this is possibly the 2nd class to graduate from the college. Also, interesting that the two women on the bottom are the founders of the college and the man I believe is the clerk that came on in 1898. I have the oak frame that is mentioned on the back. I took it out to take the pictures. front.jpg back.jpg

    Isn't that thrilling? Think how exceptional those women were to get that far.

    Exactly. 123 years ago these women paved the way for so many.
    I'm assuming #3 was the owner of the photo because there are just dots where her name should be. I may reach out to the college's historical society and see if they would like it.

    That would be lovely. Those women's descendants may not all have a copy and could find it there.
