(Just an aside. "Faculty of high attainment" is certainly an apt description of Vassar's own Maud Makemson , who taught astronomy and physical geography at Williams Junior College simultaneously while working at UC as a research assistant and taking graduate courses in astronomy.

Maud took her 11 astronomy students from Berkeley on an overnight expedition to view a total eclipse of the sun on April 28, 1930.
