Men’s and Women’s Colleges Combine

From the time in 1891 when women were first permitted to take classes, stand for examinations, and receive Brown degrees, they had been admitted to and enrolled in a separate college, first the Women’s College, later Pembroke College in Brown University. In 1971, Pembroke College and “The” College merged into a single entity.
