• 20:3320:33, 1 December 2024 diff hist +488 Lynn Townsend White Jr. →Early career, 1933–1957: Reorganized by splitting up around the move to Mills College, though the Mills College period is underdeveloped in the current article. This makes a convenient space to expand for an editor ready to write more about White's impact on feminism, in particular. (p. 196 of the C&T remembrance has a suggestive comment about Gloria Steinem's later use of White's work of the period.) Tag: Visual edit

Section definitely deserves better development in any case. current Tag: Visual edit

• 14:2814:28, 1 December 2024 diff hist +2,312 Lynn Townsend White Jr. Added Guggenheim Fellowship and Princeton IAS position. Found death location and added family stub also. Made an infobox from the information now decently-sourced in the body. Added "college president" to occupation in short description, infobox, and lead sentence: it's not as emphasized in the article yet, but remembrances describe it as important wartime service with implications for American women's history that should likely get more attention in the body.
