  M'Ledge Moffett

  For the first several years after the college opened, Moffett taught all of the Household Arts courses (Elementary Sewing, Elementary Cooking and Household Management) which met five times a week. In 1918, the Department doubled in size with the hiring of Myrtle Burnette. Moffett was one of six founding members of the Virginia Home Economics Association and president of the organization during the years 1915-1916 and 1925-1926. During the summers of 1916 through 1920, Moffett took courses at Columbia University’s Teachers College and received a Masters degree in 1921. She received her doctorate from Columbia in 1929, writing her dissertation on "The social background and activities of teachers college students". The dissertation, later published as a book, was the first of many publications. In 1920, the Radford Normal School was reorganized and McConnell appointed Moffett as the new Dean of Women, a year before she received her Master of Arts degree. She was the first person to hold that post at any of the Virginia institutions of higher education. She held the Dean's post until her retirement in 1962.

  Radford College Bulletin Graduation/Student Roster List 1965-1966 Degrees Granted

  Each year lists were published in what would later become the Undergraduate and/or Graduate Student Catalog. This publication changed titles several times over the years reflecting the name changes the college went through. The publication was: Radford Normal Bulletin (1914-1922), Radford State Teachers College Bulletin (1922-1944), Radford College Woman's Division of Virginia Polytechnic Institute College Bulletin (1944-1963) and Radford College Bulletin (1963- 1971). During the early years, each year's graduating classes were listed either by name or by name and degree, as well as the current rosters for the upcoming academic season. What was published varied slightly over the years, but in general this information was published yearly in these publications.
