The following extract from the report
Of the managers will show that the CO.

Before passing from the subject OF
Instruction we should once more add our
testimony TO the general verdict now being
pronounced In favor Of the co-educatiOn
of the sexes In our higher institutions OF
learning. If II could, with any propriety,
= be called an experiment at the time of the
! opening of SwarthmOre, 1t can surely be
no longer go regarded. In our Western
Colleges eO-education is now the rule
I separation the exception. In one Of the

a with actual college classes, than any STATE
in New England women are admit ted L
every one, and with the best results. MOI
a Is Co-edueation confined to the West alone
The older colleges Of the East are moving Il
this matter. and some have already opened

= The University of Vermont now number

/ upon this subject IL ls sufficient to say, il
/ this report, that eO-educatlon at Swarth

tlIely satisfactory to all who have wit
messed its results. It's effects are mutual,
beneficial upon the two sexes, both as L
