Question / Issue |
Were women always admitted to Sinclair? |
Answer / Solution |
No. Because the programs were offered through the Young Men’s Christian Association, they were not available to women. The decision to admit women was a difficult one and, at first, women were only allowed in the singing classes - and then they had to sit away from the men. In 1920, the same year women got the vote, women were given full admission to Sinclair courses. |
