Ruth Sawtell Wallis
edit- ... that the employment of Ruth Sawtell Wallis during the Depression was "unthinkable" because her husband was also a professor?

Brand new article with >1500 characters, looks neutral and well cited with no copyvios, and hook is properly cited and confirmed. Assuming source #1 is fine, both of the other sources are online university sites and look good. As for the actual hook, I don't think it 100% accurately reflects the source, since the unthinkable part was that they could both be employed as professors. My impression is that her getting another, non-academic job would not be unthinkable. Not sure how to rewrite it while keeping it concise though. —Torchiest talkedits 15:19, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
- Added "also" to the hook, which should hopefully fix that. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:31, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
