Found this info. on the web regarding Bucknell University, Moore Avenue, Lewisburg, PA: http://www.bucknell.edu/ http://www.bucknell.edu/WomensResourceCenter/history/1886to1895/1886to1895.htm 1889--Seeking to increase enrollment, President Harris "rearranges the Institute curricula so that girls graduating from that school had really completed the work of the freshmen year in the College. Without knowing it, in effect, they already were college women when they received their Institute diplomas. Naturally many of them wanted to go right on with college work. This simple and happy arrangement thus made it very easy for a girl to slip from the Institute into the College ranks. Also, it called little attention to the transformation that was taking place, and so stirred up slight opposition among the hardshelled conservatives." 1894--Mary Belle Harris, daughter of University President John Harris, graduates from Bucknell. As a student, Mary is active in tennis, an original member of the women's basketball team, and a charter member of Pi Beta Phi sorority. She later goes on to receive a Ph.D. and has a successful career as an administrator for women's prisons. Anyone know anything about the ancestry of President John Harris and his daughter, Mary Belle Harris? --Glenn Gohr
