Tks for highlighting this influential British nursing reformist, Ethel Gordon-Fenwick. Generally,I don't include honorary titles primarily due to lack of space,I do often use DBE to abbreviate Dame Grand Cross of the Order of the British Empire but some folks outside of the UK may not know the abbr.

Yes, it's an error! Wunderlich was elected dean of the graduate faculty at The New School for Social Research making her the first female dean of the graduate faculty in the United States Look like Edith Abbott was the first female dean of any graduate school in the U.S., University of Chicago, 1924
