Washington College of Law
The American University Washington College of Law (WCL) was founded in 1896 as the culmination of the pioneering efforts of two women, Ellen Spencer Mussey and Emma Gillett, who wished to open the field of law to women. Their efforts yielded the Washington College of Law, the first women's law school in the world to be founded by women, the first to have a female dean, and the first to generate an all-female law class.
