Radcliffe College was a women's liberal arts college in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and was the coordinate college for Harvard University. It was also one of the Seven Sisters colleges. Radcliffe College conferred joint Harvard-Radcliffe diplomas beginning in 1963 and a formal merger agreement with Harvard was signed in 1977, with full integration with Harvard completed in 1999. Today, Radcliffe's campus functions as a research institute within Harvard, the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, and former Radcliffe student housing has been incorporated as residential houses of Harvard College.

10.02 min. | 5.0 user rating		 Historian Helen Lefkowitz Horowitz explores Harvard University's relationship with women, which she describes as complicated. Her review begins with the University's founding 375 years ago, when Harvard excluded women as students and teachers. For 200 years, the University conveyed education and prestige to a ministry and a rising merchant class. Beginning in the 19th century, women found innovative ways to attain higher education, but the terms of access required accommodation—even invisibility. Horowitz contends that the fight for equity began more than a century ago and remains a work in progress today. 00:00:00 Welcome by Lizabeth Cohen, dean, Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study; Howard Mumford Jones Professor of American Studies, Department of History, Harvard University 00:01:45 Remarks by Drew Faust, president; Lincoln Professor of History, Department of History, Harvard University 00:04:15 Introduction by Lizabeth Cohen 00:12:37 "It's Complicated: 375 Years of Women at Harvard" by Helen Lefkowitz Horowitz, PhD '69, RI '01, Sydenham Clark Parsons Professor of History and American Studies, Emerita, Smith College 00:59:50 Q&A
