  Bedford College - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bedford College was founded in London, England, in 1849 as a higher education college for the education of women.
In 1900, the college became a constituent school of the University of London.
Bedford College students began gaining University of London Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science and Masters degrees from the early-1880s.

 Royal Holloway : Brief History   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Bedford College was the very first institution to have played a leading role not only in the advancement of women in higher education, but also in public life in general.
The newly merged Royal Holloway and Bedford New College was inaugurated in 1986 by Her Majesty The Queen as a ceremony in the College Chapel.
The adoption of Royal Holloway, University of London as the College's everyday title does not, however, mean that we have lost sight of the unique contribution made to education by Bedford College, and the Bedford heritage is commemorated in many ways, including the Bedford Library and the Bedford Centre for the History of Women.

Surrounded by the moneyed enclaves of Bedford Hills and Katonah, Bedford's college program has become a pet cause for the actress Glenn Close, who lives in Bedford, and the playwright Eve Ensler, the author of ''The Vagina Monologues,'' both of whom have visited the prison or taught there.
Lord, ''in order for people to understand why have college at prison, you need to focus on children.'' About 75 percent of the prison's inmates have children, and there is strong evidence that the level of education in children corresponds to their mother's, she said.
The forthcoming study of Bedford's program offers an answer to that: $2,500 is not so much when you consider that it could prevent many released inmates from returning to crime and ending up in prison again at a cost to taxpayers of at least $25,000 a year.

 Bedford College: Student Testimonials   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Bedford provides an environment where students make the transition from school to the workforce with the skills and knowledge that you still wouldn't have after three or four years at university.
I believe that the reason that Bedford students are able to learn and excel in these skills is because of the small class sizes and the personal attention given to each student by the teacher - it gives Bedford the personal touch.
My year at Bedford has prepared me for university, given me lifelong friends and my mind is full of unforgettable memories that I will hold with me for the rest of my life.

The College is scrutinising the impact of these changes through the collection of statistics on student progression and performance in all years and across all courses.

BEDFORD HILLS, N.Y. The first hint comes when you read the titles of the books on Aileen Baumgartner's desk: Reporting Vietnam, Democracy in America, Existentialism from Dostoevsky to Sartre.
And they have reason to be--for Baumgartner is not describing the course of study at some top-flight women's college, but the college program (for which she is academic director) at Bedford Hills Correctional Facility, a maximum-security women's prison located in a posh suburban hamlet about 45 minutes noah of New York City.
Under the terms of the new relationship, women at Bedford Hills can continue to receive associate's and bachelor's and sometimes even master's degrees both at the prison and at the college when they're released.
