Kate Tupper Galpin

Before instituting her classes in Southern California, she occupied the position of Professor of Pedagogy in the University of Nevada.

During the five years of her residence in California, Galpin played an active part in the club life of the State, occupied many positions of honor, and through her classes in Shakespeare and Current Topics, conducted in Los Angeles and numerous outlying towns, contributed largely to the educational and intellectual life of the community.

She gave five addresses before the Women's Congress at the Columbian Exposition, and lectured upon the suffrage platform throughout California.

Next she was called to the professorship of pedagogy in the State University of Nevada, with salary and authority the same as the men of the faculty.

That summer she became the wife of Cromwell Galpin, of Los Angeles, California, consummating a somewhat romantic attachment of her college life.
