History of Ohio University Women's League
Before student government at Ohio University became a coed organization, it was separated into the Women's League and the Men's Union. Kay Perry Baldwin led the Women's League and worked closely with Irma Voigt, the first dean of women, to pro­mote involvement in student activities and set policy for women's dormitories. The Women's League and Men's Union had separated duties, but they interacted frequently.
