EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment in time as undergraduate female students of Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford engage in a hockey match on the college grounds in 1920. The scene is set against the backdrop of the picturesque Lady Margaret Hall buildings, which opened its doors to women for higher education in 1879, making it one of the earliest women's colleges at Oxford University. The image reflects the growing trend of providing recreational opportunities for women students, as noted in contemporary reports that emphasized the similarities between the girl undergraduates' lives and those of their masculine counterparts. Dressed in their hockey uniforms, these young women exhibit a sense of camaraderie and determination as they focus intently on the game. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the active role women played in academic and extracurricular life at Oxford University during the early 20th century. As the first generation of women students, they paved the way for future generations to pursue their education and passions, both in the classroom and on the hockey field.
