The author was research counsel, Legislative Reference Service of the Library of Congress and was also well-known as a former professor of political science at Vassar College. She was also formerly president of the Connecticut College for Women and an academically published author. This work included not only descriptive sketches of women's military services in World War II, but also consideration of the traditions touching the education and training of American women and girls, of social attitudes affecting in numerous ways the place of women in the society, and of economic conditions and their bearings upon employment prospects, necessarily enter into this report. All concerned with the future of education for women will find herein matters of significance regarding how women were selected and trained to play roles in the armed services in time of war. This was prepared by the author for the Commission on Implications of Armed Services Educational Programs. The American Council on Education created the Commission on Implications of Armed Forces Educational Programs to study the armed forces education of World War II and its possible effects on postwar civilian education. Those features of the wartime training and education programs which appeared to be worthy of adaptation and experimentation in peacetime civilian education have been explored. Pertinent information was gathered from the publications of the Commission, selected publications of the American Council on Education, and other source materials. Interviews were held with the director and the assistant director of the Commission. Significant events and issues considered by the Commission were explored. Issues included merits and weaknesses of the intensive "G.I. Method," accelerated programs, program supervision and evaluation, language and area training, use of visual aids, integration of subject matter, and differences between Army and Navy programs.
