MRS Degree
A MRS Degree is a term used to describe when a young woman attends college or university with the intention of finding a potential spouse. The term was most commonly used during the mid 20th century, when higher education became more accessible, yet the possibilities for women were still very limited. College was seen as not only a way of maneuvering girls close to bright young men with big futures, but as a way of further refining and educating women, though few ever used their degrees, if they ever graduated at all.
