Although the number of women's colleges has plummeted from a high of 268 in 1960 to 38 in 2016, Douglass Residential College is flourishing as it approaches its centennial in 2018. To explore its rich history, Kayo Denda, Mary Hawkesworth, Fernanda H. Perrone examine the strategic transformation of Douglass over the past century in relation to continuing debates about women's higher education.
