Untitled[edit]

Iran Bethel School is one of the oldest schools in Iran that was established in 1889 as a woman college. It should be discussed not to be forgotten as many notable Iranian women had been granulated from this school and the base of new era of Iranian women educational consciousness has its base on this American Missionary school, so it is necessary to mention and bring it alive in the history. Later on in 1968 it's name was changed to Damavand College where 800 Iranian women were granulated through Liberal Arts. Although, there are not much references to it, what I am going to bring up are based on my attentive researches of different sources that I will mention from various books that stress on Presbyterian Mission in Iran.

Contested deletion[edit]

This article should not be speedy deleted as lacking sufficient context to identify its subject, because... (it is about one of the Oldest Women schools that its base has been the American Missionary education to enhance the women statues in Iran of 19th century. This school has a beautiful historical story that brought about Damavand College in 1968. Dr. Frances M. Gray was the first president of this college who improved Iran Bethel School to a woman liberal arts College. Please don't delete it, when it is finished you will realize its importance to the education of Iranian women and as a result to the world. Thank you. Please give me time, I will provide you with efficient references and sources. there is nothing wrong with this article, while no one has ever attempted to write about it. I was graduated from Damavand College in 1978 and I like to introduce its history to the world.)--Mansoureh Sharifzadeh (talk) 13:41, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
