F'raulein Schoen, instructor in Ger
man at the state university, returned
Monday from Germany, where she has
spent her entire vacation in the most
severe study at the Heidelberg univer-
sity. This instruction has been open
to women only within the past year,
and as it stands at the head of Ger
man universities and confers upon only
the most thorough and painstaking
students the degree of Doctor of Phi
lcsophy, Fraulein Schoen decided to
avail herself Of the opportunity for
graduate work.
Many women students from different
countries f1ocked to the university
without being thoroughly prepared or
without being sufficiently conversant
with the language. This fact has
caused some change Of opinion among
those professors who were formerly in
favor of opening the institution to
women, and who now prefer to dis
courage women from entering, rather
than lower the standard of the univer-
sity. Fraulein Schoen persisted how
ever, in spite of discouragements, took
high standing, and If she returns an
other year, will earn the coveted de-
gree OF Phi. D.
