About this listen

Originally published in 1904, Betty Wales Freshman is the captivating first installment of an 8-volume series that chronicles the adventures of Betty and her college friends at Harding, a fictional institution in New England (not to be confused with the university in Arkansas). Drawing inspiration from the authors own experiences at Smith College in Massachusetts, this delightful tale combines humor and lightheartedness with the interpersonal dramas of student life. From the excitement of academic pursuits to the spirited fascination with basketball, this series offers a charming glimpse into the lives of boarding school girls. The popularity of Bettys story even led to product placements from a dressmakers company! (Summary by Daryl Wor)
