PERMEAL J. FRENCH
Permeal J. French, dean of women of the State University of Idaho, was born in Idaho City, Idaho, and there pursued her early education, while subsequently, she continued her studies in San Francisco, California, where she graduated from the College of Notre Dame as a member of the class of 1887.
Returning to Idaho, she then engaged in teaching at Hailey for more than a decade, or until 1898, when she was elected state superintendent of public instruction. She filled this position, with an office in Boise, for four years, and in 1908 she came to Moscow to take up her present work with the State University, becoming dean of women.
She is widely known as one of the ablest educators of Idaho, her increasing power and ability bringing her to a place in the front rank among the eminent representatives of the profession in the state. She holds to the highest ideals and standards of teaching, nor is her interest confined to this line alone. She keeps informed on all the vital questions which affect the welfare of the individual and the community at large and she is actively identified with the State Federation of Women's Clubs.
