Because in the early nineteen hundreds, women weren't encouraged to go into the sciences.
Cambridge first accepted women in 1869. However, they attended a separate campus and received only mailed degrees.
[Simple, yes. Embarrassing. But true.]
Most of Rosalind's studies were done on her own, independent of a university, whereas I had the luxury of having that thorough education.
