British freewomen : $b Their historical privilege
Stopes, C. C. (Charlotte Carmichael)
Women -- Great Britain; Women -- History
Three Halls have been founded, Lady Margaret Hall, 1879 (Church of
England with liberty for other denominations); Somerville Hall, 1879
(non-denominational), and St. Hugh’s, 1886 (Church of England). There
are also unattached students residing in Oxford under certain
regulations. From 1879 to 1892 the number of students has been in all
539. But though women are admitted to the Oxford University Exams.,
Honours and Pass, and are ranked in Classes, they have no reward or
recognition by the University, and no notice of women appears in the
University Calendar.
Therefore in a country in which Free Trade principles have been forced
on the British farmer for the benefit of other classes of the community,
however prejudicial to his own, protection still reigns in these old
Universities, that illogically “protect” the stronger against the weaker
sex, who are thus forced to prove their capability in face of many
difficulties and overwhelming odds.

1878. London:
Subordinate Colleges give Education. Examination. Degrees.
