| Florence Luscomb was among a small minority of women fortunate enough to attend college in the early 1900s, but even privileged women suffered discrimination. While studying architecture at MIT, she applied to 12 firms before she found one willing to take on a woman apprentice. Her commitment to suffrage intensified. She worked hard organizing rallies, trolley tours and street meetings in support of an unsuccessful campaign for a constitutional amendment that would give Massachusetts women the right to vote. |
