Virginia Gilderseleeve was the third President of Barnard College, though at the time, she and her predecessors used the title "Dean". At the end of her tenure, in 1945, she served as the sole female delegate from the United States to the negotiation of the UN Charter and the founding of the United Nations (more or less making her a big deal).
