	Douglass Scholars - The Impact of Coeducation at Rutgers College on Douglass College - Jacqueline Green, Douglass ...
		With the admission doors open to women at their brother school, Douglass faculty and administrators were forced to re-examine the purpose and identity of their women's college in deciding whether or not to follow suit concerning education, but now they had opportunities to receive equal instruction with men.
		The majority of Douglass students and some alumnae supported the idea of co-education coming to Douglass, if it were to come to Rutgers; however, their reasons for this opinion were diverse.
		One key component of the recruitment effort at Douglass was to continue to expound on the merits of a women's college, as they had in the battle to keep coeducation out of Douglass.

		Since Douglass is a women’s college whose mission is to educate women and to provide them with significant leadership opportunities, a primary goal of the course is to introduce students to feminist issues through a study of women’s lives as portrayed in biography and autobiography.
		While Douglass has its own administration and its own programs, academic departments are centralized across the university so that students spend most of their time in large classes populated by students from all of the undergraduate colleges.
		Designed by a group of Douglass Faculty Fellows and Staff, the goals of the course were to ease the transition from high school to college work, build a stronger sense of community, hone writing and critical thinking skills, and provide students with the tools to think critically about their own education.

		There is still a need for women's colleges, and if women who cannot afford a private women's college are to reap their benefits, there is certainly a need for one at a state university.
		Certainly, at Douglass College this was the case in the early 1990s when I was a student and, as Barretto noted in her comments, still is the case now.
		Douglass' mission - still relevant today and perhaps even more so when we look at the obstacles women today face on a global level - is fulfilled in large part through the assistance of the Associate Alumnae of the College (both monetary and in-kind).

	Frederick Douglass (1818-1895)
		The movement from slavery to "freedom" is obviously important, as is the particular means by which Douglass achieves his freedom--the role literacy plays in his struggle.
		Douglass's command of the formal principles of oratory and rhetoric should be emphasized, as well as his use of the conventions of both sentimental literature and the rhetoric and symbolism of evangelical Christianity.
		In short, it is important to note how Douglass appropriated the dominant literary styles of mid-nineteenth-century American life to articulate his claims on behalf of African-American humanity.
