Abstract
VC Ex 1910, 30 letters from Worthing to her family, dated between 5 May 1907 and 19 Mar 1911. Worthing mentions various Vassar College traditions, such as tree ceremonies, commencement, the Vassarion, the senior boat ride, a stunt party, choral club, and a sermon by Lyman Abbott. She also makes reference to Latin class, music recitals, the new chemical laboratory, senior picture sale, and VC's response to the Consumer's League. Many of the letters were written while Worthing was visiting New York and New Jersey with friends and VC classmates, so she often discusses family and social news, presents received from and purchased for her family, and seeing performances by famous actors such as Sothern and Marlowe.
