early history[edit]

Comment: My concern with this is that it only talks about the early history of the college, but excludes the rest of it. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 6:10 pm, 10 January 2012, last Tuesday (2 days ago) (UTC−7)

Renaming to Woman’s Medical College of Pennsylvania' and will add redirect from 'Female Medical College of Pennsylvania'. :- ) DCS 00:29, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please add cross links to Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania and maybe discuss what should be the best name for this article considering information found at Drexel. :- ) DCS 00:29, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reasons for founding?[edit]

Why did they open a school for female doctors if there was no need?--78.49.5.97 (talk) 02:28, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alumni[edit]

I was surprised there is no listing of distinguished alumni. I intended to add Anna Sarah Kugler. Anyone know of others, enough to establish a section? --MelanieN (talk) 20:51, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Graceallen Lewis[edit]

The article states that Graceallen Lewis was one of the "first female scientists in the U.S.". There are no sources, nor is this name easily found elsewhere on the internet. Additionally, by this time, there had been many female scientists in the U.S. - what field did she study? What is her background? 97.76.22.83 (talk) 20:19, 20 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest adding Dr. Rosetta Sherwood Hall[edit]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_Sherwood_Hall — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.125.238.248 (talk) 14:24, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There is no indication in the Rosetta Sherwood Hall article that she is an alumna of the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania. Peaceray (talk) 15:41, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

She was added today to the list, with a citation and an edit to the originating WP article too. Jooojay (talk) 23:23, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In popular culture[edit]

Right now there lists a fictitious television character as a notable alumnus (Dr. Quinn Medicine Women), which seems like it should have it's own section as "In popular culture". Also this would need citations, none of which are currently listed. Jooojay (talk) 23:36, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

edits have been made. DianaOUedu (talk) 02:59, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
