WWU

 

Western Washington University,

 

The university was founded, defounded changed charters. Then refounded under the American school system. It was first founded under the charter of the British not English school system.

The library came from the British Ogle family New Castle and of course Edinberg. Both libraries came directly from the British Ogle family. The Ogle family have an extremely long and complex story regarding what those scholarly materials are, where they came from, copies where did they go, where did materials come from, etc.

 

It was refounded by Phoebe Judson as the normal school. A school which had to close its medical school, mathematics department, and a dozen other facilities to only teach females to be teachers. The only thing Whatcom county and the Territory of WA would allow was a female teachers college. The school was a world class university and medical school which had to shut down due to politics.

The Medical Schools out east had a lock on being the only Medical schools in the country. University of Washington was not allowed to be founded till 1946. When the demand for doctors was too high for the established medical schools out east to accommodate.
