- catalog abstract ""Baltimore's Bryn Mawr School was founded in the 1880s, the first college-preparatory school for girls in the United States. Unlike other educational institutions at the time, the Bryn Mawr School championed intellectual equality of the sexes. Established with the goal of providing girls with an education identical to that of boys in quality and compass, the school endeavored to prepare girls to excel in a public sphere traditionally dominated by men." "A Vision for Girls offers history of a path-breaking institution that shaped America's educational goals as the country grappled with significant changes in the role of women in society. Andrea Hamilton tells the complex and compelling story of a single-sex school that was simultaneously ahead of its time and a product of its time."--Jacket.".
