EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Western College for Women class of 1905, taken in Oxford, Ohio, around the year 1904. The image showcases a group of young women, dressed in elegant outfits of the early 20th century, gathered outdoors on the college campus. Their attire includes high-necked blouses, long skirts, and some even wear neck ties, reflecting the era's fashion trends and the influence of education on gender norms. The Western College for Women, founded in 1870, was a pioneering institution for women's higher education in the United States. Located in Oxford, Butler County, Ohio, the college provided opportunities for further education and personal growth for countless women during the late 1800s and early 1900s. The photograph, taken as a group portrait, features the students standing in a semi-circle, with their arms linked or resting on each other's shoulders. The setting, with the college buildings in the background, adds to the sense of unity and camaraderie among the students. The image, a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, is a testament to the rich history of education in the United States and the role of institutions like the Western College for Women in shaping the lives of young women during this period. The photograph, from the Library of Congress, is a valuable piece of heritage art that continues to inspire and inform our understanding of the past.
