Agency History /
Biographical Note:
Bowdoin College was chartered in 1794. The first students entered in 1802 and the first six were graduated in 1806. It was an all-male institution until the Governing Boards voted in September 1970 to make the college coeducational. The first undergraduate woman to receive a degree from Bowdoin was an exchange student from Connecticut College on the Twelve College Exchange Program. She received her degree in 1971. The first regularly enrolled women entered as freshmen in the fall of 1971.
