Abstract:

Moravian elders established the Salem Boarding School which would later become Salem College, an all women liberal arts school. Financing for the school came from the congregation which was repaid with interest. The author looks at this school as a comparison for early education in the state and to emphasize the Moravian's unique emphasis on education, especially for women.
