对于 Rockford University
Rockford University was founded in 1847 in the city of Rockford, Illinois as the Rockford Female Seminary. This citizens of Rockford offered $3,500 to help set up the institution and the first classes took place in the courthouse. The university is proud of its history of women’s education. The decision, taken in the 1840s, to provide a curriculum at the Female Seminary which was as challenging as that at an all-male institution was bold for the times. The first bachelor’s degrees were awarded in 1882 and one of the recipients was Nobel Peace Prize recipient Jane Adams. The seminary was renamed Rockford College in 1892. Men were admitted during World War II and the college became fully coeducational in 1958. ?
