When the subject of faculty and headmistress was brought up, Mrs. Craddock raised her hand and volunteered that she knew someone who would be perfect – Annie C. Whiteside, the Registrar and Director of Administration at Randolph- Macon Women's College. Miss Whiteside would be retiring that June.
Perkins told Mrs. Craddock that was a wonderful idea, to recruit Miss. Whiteside. Henceforth, Mrs. Craddock would be in charge of faculty and curriculum for the new school.
Mrs. Craddock, who was also a woman of action, approached Annie C. Whiteside and offered her the job. She took the position with the understanding that she would only serve for 5 years, after which she intended to retire. The first goal in making the school a reality was accomplished! | ||
