Douglass College: Educating Women for 100 Years

New Brunswick Today published "Douglass Celebrates a Century of Higher Education for Women" on March 29, 2018.  The article written by Benjamin Clapp coincides with several events that commemorate the founding of New Jersey College for Women in 1918.  The institution was renamed as Douglass College in 1955 and changed its name again in 2007 to Douglass Residential College.

You can visit Douglass web pages for more information on college traditions, a timeline, and "Douglass: The Power of 100 Years," web pages where alumnae and students can review memories or learn more about various centennial events. 

Clapp also notes that a new book, The Douglass Century: Transformation of the Women’s College at Rutgers University, written by three Rutgers faculty members, Kayo Denda, Mary Hawkesworth, and Fernanda Perrone, is published by the Rutgers University Press.
