This paper examines how the memories of college days and interactions with the philanthropy society influenced the educational views of Japanese women who returned to Japan after studying abroad. I focus on three female presidents of women’s colleges who graduated from Bryn Mawr College (BMC) with support from the American Women’s Scholarship for Japanese Women (AWSJW). I demonstrate that their educational vision and practices were formed through their experience in the BMC days and their relationships with the philanthropist society of Philadelphia.
