Arnold, Dorothy McSparren.

Hide Profile

Dorothy McSparran Arnold (? - 1971) received a B.A. from Cornell University in 1918. She was a professor and administrator at Washington Square College for forty-three years. Arriving in 1924 as a young instructor in the English department, Arnold found a ten-year old college with a strong commitment to women's undergraduate education. A year after her arrival she became involved in the other side of college life - the development of the student's social and moral character. She went into student affairs. During the 1925-26 school year, Mrs. Arnold began her work as a counselor and administrator for women students at Washington Square College. She was named chairman of the faculty committee on women's interests and, as the catalog for that year states: "matters affecting the interests of girls in the college should be referred to Mrs. Arnold."
