Description	“The People’s University” was designed as a promotional brochure targeting teachers. Management of the American Woman’s League realized that teachers, especially those in more rural areas, might not be able to fulfill the subscription sales membership requirement. As an alternative, they offered to sell selected correspondence courses to teachers or to those interested in teaching. Courses included those for a Teacher Certificate, in special teaching methods and some college preparation courses. The League also offered a Secondary Teacher’s Review Bulletin intended to provide a summary and bibliography of current articles of interest to educators.
