Abstract:
The Woman's College in Greensboro opened in 1893 and became part of the greater university system in the 1920s when State College and Woman's College were consolidated under University of North Carolina. In 1943, the college celebrated fifty years with growth in faculty (248) and student body (2250). During the 1940s it was the second largest institution for women's higher education and boasted approximately 6,000 graduates throughout its history. Initial one degree was offered titled \"Normal, business and Home Economics\" but, at the time of the article, offered five degrees under the umbrella of Liberal Arts.
