Education at Harper Adams College (now University)[edit]
I question the statement she was the only female student at the college, when women's classes were being held in World War I from 1916. According to the Wikipedia article on Harper Adams University, Harper Adams remained open during the First World War, and in 1915 the first women were admitted into the college on wartime farm courses. Harper was the first institute to do so, and in 1916 women were admitted full-time onto a wide variety of courses.Cloptonson (talk) 20:38, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I have now raised a citation need over her alleged time at Harper Adams, as well as accepted the possibility the sentence meant to say - but I am not certain to rephrase accordingly without proof - that she was the only female student during the period she studied at the college as many wartime job and education openings for women were cut back after the War ended.Cloptonson (talk) 09:20, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
