Before attending this Rose Café event, I haven’t carefully thought about Flora Rose. When looking at the names of various dorms on campus, I just thought that the names must have been given after someone influential to the university in the past. After attending this event, I learned about various accomplishments that Flora Rose made ranging from women’s rights and creating a course for women on campus along with Martha Van Rensselaer. I enjoyed this event in that I was able to learn about the amazing histories behind these wonderful women. Now, when I pass by and enter Flora Rose house, I get to view this dorm differently.
