EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the spirit of celebration as Westfield College for Women marks an impressive milestone in its history: the fifty-year anniversary of its founding. Established in 1882 as part of the University of London, Westfield College has long been a beacon of education for women, providing them with opportunities to pursue higher learning and academic excellence. In this image, a grand procession makes its way through the picturesque campus, led by the new Principal, Miss Chapman, who has succeeded the esteemed Miss Lodge in her role. Dressed in academic robes and bearing an expression of determination and pride, Miss Chapman sets the tone for the occasion. Surrounded by a sea of girls and ladies, all dressed in their Sunday best, the procession winds its way through the College grounds, filled with a sense of accomplishment and optimism. The 1930s, a decade known for its social and political upheaval, saw Westfield College continue to thrive. This photograph serves as a testament to the resilience and determination of the College community, who came together to celebrate their achievements and look forward to the future. With a rich history and a commitment to providing quality education to women, Westfield College for Women remains a vital and influential institution in the annals of higher education in London and beyond.
