2019 exhibits will spotlight women’s history at Yale and beyond

Yale Library will join the 50 Women at Yale 150 celebration with four exhibits on women's history topics this year—three of which will be curated or co-curated by students.

The exhibits are part of a campus-wide commemoration of two milestones: the 50th anniversary of the matriculation of women in Yale College and the 150th anniversary of the first women students at the university who came to study at the School of Art in 1869.
