1969

Woman’s Medical College of Pennsylvania – last woman’s medical institution -- becomes coed, dropping “Woman’s” from its name and admitting six men to freshman class in 1971 (M-S, 349-350). Men to be admitted only if they did not displace women, though the board’s subsequent compliance with Title IX (1972) effectively rescinded its earlier commitment to reserve a minimum number of places for women (Peitzman, 221-229).
