The Women of Cornell

SKEE PHI

AKA, Pauline Ray Morton Finney (Cornell)

Paula, Geneva, New York. Prepared at Geneva High School. Age, twenty-two years. Arts course. Four years at Cornell. Paula comes from the small but renowned Geneva (N.Y.) and brings with her that push indigenous to all of Geneva's Great. Her four years were not spent idly, and we hope that some day, along with Geneva's celebrities, Calvin, Donnivard, Rousseau, Amiel, and Marc Monnier will appear with Pauline A. Ray.

Flax, Washington, District of Columbia. Prepared at M Street High School. Age, twenty-three. Arts course. Three and a half years at Cornell. Flaxie came to us with a desire, although not always obvious, tow work. However, so rapid was her pregress, that she left us after a sojourn of three years and a half, exceedingly content in the happy possession of an A.B.

AKA, Rosa Vassar (Cornell)

ROSA AUGUSTA VASSAR, Lynchburg, Va. Prep. School, Howard University Academy, Age, 22. Course Arts. Years in Cornell, 1. Rosa came to us a sophomore and she brought, along with her insatiable desire for knowledge, an insatiable desire for Medics. Although she has spent many a weary hour in Morse Hall, her greatest interest seems centered in zoology, and perhaps as a natural consequence, veterinary medicine.

Rosa Vassar

AKA, Clarice Jones (Ithaca College)

Clarice has spent four years with us. Quite studious for three years her senior year finds her attention divided between Buffalo and West Green streets. She has grown very fond of the city, and future years may find it her residence. Wonder why?

AKA, Sara Winifred Brown

Class of 1897

Sara Winifred Brown of Winchester, Virginia, arrived at Cornell in 1894 and lived at Sage College her entire college career. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in 1897 and went on to graduate from Howard University Medical College in 1904, becoming, like her siblings, a medical doctor. During World War I, she was a member of the “flying squadron” of fifty women physicians appointed by the Women’s War Work Council, and in 1925, she was chosen as the first alumna Trustee of Howard University. She was fatally injured when struck by a bus in 1948. Page
