Palmer, Alice Elvira Freeman (1855-1902), educator Born in Colesville, near Binghamton, New York, on February 21, 1855, Alice Freeman had taught herself to read by the time she entered local district school at the age of four. In 1872 she sat for the entrance examination at the University of Michigan, then the foremost university to which women were admitted, and although she proved deficient in some areas, the deep impression she made on President James B. Angell induced him to admit her. She quickly made up her deficiencies and graduated in 1876. Over the next three years she taught school in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, and then served as head of the high school in Saginaw, Michigan, while pursuing graduate studies at the university in the summers. The need to support her family forced her to decline offers from Henry F. Durant of instructorships in mathematics and then in Greek at Wellesley College in 1877 and 1878, but in 1879 she was at last free to accept the post of head of the history department. On the death of Durant in October 1881 and the resignation of President Ada L. Howard in the next month, Freeman was named vice president and acting president of Wellesley. In 1882 she became president. In the same year, she was awarded an honorary Ph.D. by the University of Michigan. In her five years as president of Wellesley she created much of the framework of faculty and student organization that would be carried on long after. She was particularly successful in raising academic standards and in establishing a system of 15 preparatory schools around the country to supply students to the college. She was a founder in 1881 of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae (later the

10. Alice Freeman Palmer 18551902 Birth date February 21 For the next two years Alice Freeman Palmerwas an active public speaker focusing on Women’s higher education. http://web.whittier.edu/palmers/About_Us/alice_freeman_palmer.htm

Birth date: February 21 Now that the Palmer Society has celebrated an over eighty year history as a strong female influence on the Whittier College Campus it is a good time to look back on our namesake and honor her innovative attitudes and her amazing achievements. Alice Freeman was born in 1855 to a farmer in New York State. She was the eldest of four children. Her father had greater aspirations than farming and left his family in order to gain further education and went on to become a doctor. Alice and her mother ran the farm and raised the other children in his absence. Alice wanted desperately to go to college but at that time 0.7% of all young women 18-21 were attending college, and a poor family like hers would not waste money on educating a girl when they had boys to raise and educate. Alice promised her parents that if she were allowed to attend school she would help to pay for her younger siblings educations as well. Her parents agreed and in 1872 Alice Freemen began attending the University of Michigan. Only two years earlier U of M had begun allowing women to attend classes.

The blue May sky Brought to us its great Spring surprise; While we saw all things through each other's eyes. And sometimes from a steep hillside Shone fair and bright The shadhush, like a young June bride, Fresh clothed in white. Sometimes came glimpses glad of the blue sea; But I smiled only on my Love; he smiled on me. The violets made a field one mass of blue - Even bluer than the sky; The little brook took on that color too, And sang more merrily. "Your dress is blue," he laughing said. "Your eyes," My heart sang, "sweeter than the bending skies." We spoke of poets dead so long ago
