Subtitled “An Eminent Frenchwoman’s Study of Co-Education in America”
This is a wonderful piece that has many Knox connections. First off, it is written about Knox, but it was also published in McClure’s Magazine in May of 1895 with the introduction written by Ida Tarbell. S.S. McClure graduated from Knox in 1882 and founded his magazine soon after, and he employed many Knox graduates including Mrs. Tarbell, Robert Finley and many more. Beyond that, it is an outsider’s look at the culture and environment that Knox had in the turn of the century.
