About This Item
Miss Gill's School for Girls Diploma. 1914. Measures 16 x 21.5 inches. Awarded to Constance Madeleine McFadden for satisfactory completion of the subjects of Arithmetic, History of Art, French, Physiology, English, Psychology and English History. Miss Gill's School in Philadelphia was founded by Miss Elizabeth Gill, an educational activist who championed small class sizes and close student-teacher collaboration, a nonhierarchical classroom model rare for its time. Unlike women's "finishing schools," Miss Gill's emphasized a rigorous curriculum individualized to students' needs. Creased where folded. Light toning to edges does not affect text. Overall very good condition.
