  • Description
  • Letitia Bennett, a graduate of Oberlin College, was an instructor in mathematics and astronomy at PCW from 1913-1930. In her college history, Chatham College: The First Ninety Years, Laberta Dysart writes of Ms. Bennett: "Many of her former students gratefully recall today the "star-gazing tours" she conducted on clear nights and her quotations of poetical and Biblical references to the constellations, and still others recall, most of them gratefully, how vigorous and exacting she was in mathematics classes."
