A Separate School for Women,
Founding Jackson College, 1905-1910
Frederick
W. Hamilton became President of Tufts in 1905. Within two years, he was
strongly advocating for the women of Tufts to be segregated into a separate
college. In 1910, the Tufts Board of Trustees voted to form Jackson College.
The
1910-1911 Tufts College Catalogue reflected the change in women's status
on campus.

Many
male alumni were eager to give their opinions on the subject of co-education
and segregation.
