Cai Yuanpei made a significant contribution to women education, which he made a series of efforts to fight for the right of education for women. Cai Yuanpei not only improved women’s equity in the education system, such as the first women's admission in 1920 and co-education, but he also advocated feminism to change the traditional Chinese concept of women. Also, in promoting women’s education, Cai Yuanpei successively hired several feminists to teach at Peking University, such as Guo Hongming, Hu Shi, etc. Those feminists played an important role in Cai Yuanpei's education reform for women at Peking University. Cai Yuanpei's education reform for women was also a breakthrough in the history of Chinese education.
