Emma Hart Willard pioneered expanding women’s education to include the teaching of science and mathematics. Willard’s Troy Female Seminary, founded in 1821, became a model for its academic program shattering the then popular myth that women were not fit to handle academic subjects.  In 1866 she was elected an honorary member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
