About this book
The Story of Wellesley is a book by Florence Converse. A song titled Alma Mater addresses Wellesley's daughters and asks them to join together and sing. The preface tells of the day after the Wellesley fire, when an eager young reporter on a Boston paper came out to the college by appointment to interview a group of Wellesley women, alumnae and teachers, grief-stricken by the catastrophe.
The text says the Department of Art, under Professor Alice V.V. Brown, works on the proper interpretation and history of art. The text adds that the laboratory method is used and that all students are required to recognize and indicate the characteristic qualities and attributes of the great masters by sketching from photographs of the pictures studied. A list of schools includes Dana Hall, the Weston School and the Longwood School, all in Massachusetts, and Science Hill, at Shelbyville, Kentucky.
