[2] Wofford graduated from Winthrop College in 1916[3] and taught at Laurens High School shortly thereafter.
[3] Returning to Laurens after the war, she was elected in 1922 as the county superintendent of schools, becoming the first woman in South Carolina to discharge that role as well as the first woman in the state to be elected to public office.
[1] A small archive related to her career is held at the library of the University of South Carolina.
[9] Wofford Hall, a women's residence hall constructed in 1967 at her alma mater, is named in her honor,[3] and her family presented the school with a portrait of her, painted by a fellow Winthrop alumna, after her death.
[11] The third floor north of Rawlins Hall, a women's dormitory at the University of Florida opened in 1958, also bears her name; sections of the hall were named after various significant women in Florida history.
