Women worked in the Admissions Office before co-education in 1972

To the Editor: In Tuesday's Dartmouth ["Ups and downs of history are reflected in admissions policies," The Dartmouth, May 21] , an otherwise excellent article was seriously in error when Dean of Residential Life Mary Turco was quoted as saying that: "They had no female admissions officers when they launched the co-ed program." One might infer from that quote that in 1972 there were no females on the Dartmouth admissions office staff.
