Tóm tắt

Coordination between a men's and a women's college has existed in the United States since 1879 when the "Annex," later called Radcliffe, enabled some women to receive instruction from Harvard professors. While only a few institutions of higher education have ever had a coordinate structure, in the mid-1960s there were still some well-known coordinate colleges, including Pembroke and Brown, Barnard and Columbia, Radcliffe and Harvard, Sophie Newcomb and Tulane, and Douglass and Rutgers. In 1966 Hamilton College, a small, private liberal arts college for men in Clinton, New York, announced that it was establishing a women's coordinate college. This decision did not seem particularly unusual for the time, but the type of women's college that was founded-a progressive or innovative college-was more exceptional. After only ten years of operation, Hamilton College absorbed this women's college, Kirkland, and Hamilton became coeducational in the more typical sense. This chapter discusses how and why Hamilton College decided to found Kirkland and the reasons Hamilton became coeducational a decade later. It seems that coeducation, after even a brief period of coordination, can have benefits for women students, despite coordination and coeducation being instituted primarily with men's interests in mind.
