A Girl's Student Days and After is a memoir written by Jeannette Augustus Marks and published in 1911. The book chronicles the author's experiences as a young woman attending college in the late 19th century, a time when women's education was still a relatively new concept. Marks discusses the challenges she faced as a female student, including sexism from male professors and a lack of support from some of her female peers. She also writes about the friendships she formed with other women at college and the sense of community she found there.After graduating from college, Marks went on to become a prominent educator and suffragist. The second half of the book focuses on her work in these fields, including her efforts to promote women's rights and improve education for all students. Marks also reflects on the changes she witnessed during her lifetime, including the growing acceptance of women in higher education and the fight for women's suffrage.Overall, A Girl's Student Days and After offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a pioneering woman in the early days of women's education and the women's rights movement. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the struggles and triumphs of women during a time of great change and progress.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
