Title A name given to the resource Monticello College Collection Subject The topic of the resource Women's colleges Universities and colleges Monticello College Monticello Female Seminary Haskell, Harriet, 1835-1907 Illinois--Godfrey Godfrey, Benjamin, 1794-1862 Description An account of the resource Monticello College first began as the Monticello Female Seminary in 1838. Founded by Captain Benjamin Godfrey to provide education for women, the school offered two years of classes for attendees based on the idea that “if you educate a man you educate an individual; educate a woman and you educate a whole family.” Godfrey selected Reverend Theron Baldwin to serve as the first head of the Monticello Female Seminary. In 1867 Harriet Haskell became principal, a position she held until her death in 1907.  On November 4, 1888, a fire broke out in the building and consumed the entire structure. Ms. Haskell and the school's Board of Trustees successfully fundraised for a new building and rebuilt the school in two years. The school's leadership made the decision to close the school in 1970 with the final class graduating in 1971. Lewis and Clark Community College completed the purchase of the Monticello College campus in 1972.

I honor such men wherever they are found, but I especially glory in them when they are in the centre of this world of ideas, of growth, of progress." And so on - you will excuse the freedom of expression in a perfectly private letter from a friend. I quote it merely to show you that there are some people who are gratefully appreciative of <hr /> the labors of public officers, although the public may sometimes seem careless. I have been writing a short article on the subject of Illinois for the "Continental Monthly" - When it is published, I shall take the liberty of sending you a copy. I wrote to the Supt of Public Instruction requesting a copy of his Report, of which you make such favorable mention in the Message. - but as I have had no reply, I conclude he was absent from Springfield, or perhaps does not reside there.
