Mary Church Terrell: An Original Oberlin Activist

Academic Life

Terrell began her studies at Oberlin College in the Preparatory Department.  The curriculum was designed to prepare students for enrollment in the Classical and Scientific course in the College.  Terrell scored well enough on the entrance exam to start as a member of the senior class of the Classical School (Annual Catalogue, 1879-80) - a tribute to the excellent foundation she received 
in the schools in Yellow Springs and Oberlin.
