Davis, Anne - An Accident of History, March 23, 2011
Paper description
History/Memoir: A short history of Radcliffe College and its Class of 1958, this paper describes the feelings of failure members of the class had at their 25th reunion due to the curve that Women's Liberation threw at women in our age group. The sense of failure and anger at Radcliffe for not preparing us better turned to activism at the 35th reunion, activism that perhaps helped to speed up the merger between Harvard and Radcliffe.
