Description: 

The novel mentions both the University of Virginia, which at the time that Gowan Stevens is preparing to enroll there was all-male, and "the Virginia schools at which Southern mothers seemed to aim their daughters" (220-21), which at the time of the novel would include all-female colleges like Mary Washington and Sweet Briar.
