Woolley (1863-1947) was an American professor, educational reformer, and suffragist. Woolley was the first female student to attend Brown University and also served as the 11th president of Mount Holyoke College from 1900-1937. She began her teaching career at Wellesley College in 1895. Woolley was a pioneer in the field of pedagogy and advocated for intellectual female education at a time when women's education was limited to the domestic sphere. She worked to dispel negative stereotypes of female students such as the notion that they had an inherent learning disability and that intellectual education was harmful to their health.. Manuscript.
