Terrible Result of the Higher Education of Women! [Miss Hypatia Jones, Spinster of Arts (on her way to Refreshment), informs Professor Parallax, FRS, that"Young Men do very well to Look at, or to Dance with, or even to Marry, and all that kind of Thing!" but that "as to enjoying any Rational Conversation with any Man under Fifty, that is completely out of the Question!'

University College [in pencil outside the image.]
W.H. [Signed in pencil outside the image:] Wallace Hester.
[n.d. c.1910.]
Etching. Plate 266 x 202mm. 10½ x 8".
Wallace Hester (1866-1923?) was an artist and engraver who contributed caricatures to "Vanity Fair."
University College London was the third university to open in England, in 1826. It was founded upon the basis of opening up education to wider social groups and to challenge to ethos set by Oxford and Cambridge. In doing so, it was the first university in England to admit students of any race, class or religion, and the first to welcome women on equal terms with men.
