In 1875, Wellesley college opened its doors to women. The Story of Wellesley, written over a hundred years ago, by Florence Converse, a Wellesley professor and graduate herself, tells of the first 40 years of this remarkable school. Henry Fowle Durant founded it with a very specific philosophy which grew and changed as the decades passed. The first six presidents each approached their duty with different talents and goals. Students flourished and became supporting alumnae. Although the individuals mentioned in the Story of Wellesley have all passed into history, their legacy and influence lives on in the alumni and students of today. Narrated by three Wellesley alumnae.
