SUMMARY:From Pioneer Tilden to National Leader Forker
DESCRIPTION:\nJoin Ames Public Library and Ames History Museum for “From Pioneer Tilden to National Leader Forker: Physical Education at Iowa State” presented by Jan Beran, professor emerita, Iowa State University.\nFrom 1904 to 1944 at Iowa Agricultural College, Winifred Tilden, the first head of the Department of Physical Culture (pictured above), promoted physical activities for IAC’s female students. Her legacy was carried forward by Barbara Forker as department chair of Physical Education for women and later men from 1948 to 1986, becoming a much admired national leader.\nBeran will relate the stories of these forward-looking women, whose impact can easily be seen today. Both were committed to promoting physical activity as part of a woman’s overall lifetime health and wellness.\nYou may also participate in this event online via Zoom. Register at ameshistory.org to receive the Zoom link by e-mail.\nPresented in partnership with Ames Public Library and Ames History Museum.\n
