Founding Principal and Advocate for Women's Education
A prominent figure in Western College for Women's history, Helen Peabody, a principled principal, played a significant role in its establishment. Born in Newport, New Hampshire, in 1826, she attended Concord Literary Institute and later taught at Kimball Union Academy, graduated from Mount Holyoke Female Seminary in Massachusetts, and became the founding president in 1855. Peabody relocated to Oxford and worked to establish Western according to the "Mount Holyoke Plan," facing numerous obstacles. She completed the physical structure and administrative tasks but faced the biggest challenge when a fire destroyed the main hall of the college. Peabody was a deeply religious individual, a member of the Second Presbyterian Church and First Presbyterian Church, and was known for her strict and formidable nature.
