Mead on Marriage Types and Student Parenthood
Anthropologist Margaret Mead argues marriage should not require children and supports student marriage if schooling continues. She outlines two marriage types, individual and parental, urging universities to stop pressuring students into marriage as a job path and condemning domestic slavery of educated women.

Sharing Strengthens Marriage Mrs Carol Stix at Barnard
Mrs Carol Stix heads the Community Service Workshop at Barnard College and argues that married women who pause school can return. She married in 1945 to a navy man met on a blind date, left Barnard in 1946 for motherhood, and after seventeen years with four children returned in 1963 to earn a Master’s degree. She says shared study fosters a closer relationship with a supportive spouse, and that with money and determination nothing is impossible.
