Letter from M. Carey Thomas to Mary Elizabeth Garrett, June 13, 1891
Title:
Letter from M. Carey Thomas to Mary Elizabeth Garrett, 1891
Description:
M. Carey Thomas writes to Mary Garrett that she is annoyed that Garret is not writing to her as often as she promised or including detailed judgements of what she has seen on her travels and threatens to stop writing in return. Thomas asks Garrett to write to Kate McLane, an adversary in the medical school debate. She finishes her account of her visit to Cornell and writes that she pities Helen Magill White, a former fellow academic who has now married the College's former president and unhappily taken on his hosting duties. Thomas writes that despite Cornell's size and wealth, she does not think their materials or teaching ratios are any better, but that it is very hard for Bryn Mawr to pay good professors competitive salaries. She also writes that the Women's Committee continues to run into difficulty regarding the medical school, and that President Gilman is attempting to appoint an interim president who will oppose them. Thomas then tells the story of a young woman who applied for an internship at the Bryn Mawr School but then eloped at the last minute and gives an update on some other school maintenance projects. Enclosed with the letter are a wedding announcement for the eloped teacher, a newspaper clipping about the Bryn Mawr School's end of year tennis tournament, and a copy of a final exam in English from Bryn Mawr.
