	Aletta Jacobs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Her father's favorite, as a child Jacobs only wanted to grow up to be a physician like her father and her eldest brother; she didn't set out to forge a path for other women to follow and she didn't set out to change the world.
		Although girls were not permitted to enroll in the boys' high school, Jacobs father convinced the local school master to allow her to audit his classes for boys, enabling her to learn the subjects which she would need to enter college.
		Jacobs passed her exams to become a Candidate in Mathematics and Physics (non sine laude - with honors), which is preparatory to the study of medicine and moved to Amsterdam to enter medical school in Oct 1876.

	Memoirs: My Life as an International leader in Health, Suffrage, and Peace by Aletta Jacobs
		Jacobs helped pave the way for women to become doctors, and she continued to practice medicine after her marriage, despite the fact that it was not regarded as proper for a middle-class married woman to work outside the home except as an unpaid volunteer.
		Aletta Jacobs was by no means a revolutionary by temperament, and she certainly did not wish to scandalize her neighbors, but her views and personal behavior were clearly ahead of her time.
		Jacob's insistence that medical doctors should be in charge of the dissemination of birth control brought her into conflict with her colleague Catherine van Tussenbroek, who objected to such a policy on the basis of medical ethics and reluctance to give husbands and doctors the right to control women's bodies.
