Primary Source: Goggins' influence

Goggin and Haley were two influencial women in the fight for equality in the school system. They devoted their lives to improved the lives of others. They faced struggles with power, as it shifted from a feminist perspective, to one that accomidates both men and women. The two women went under investigation for "depletion of school funds that had affected the pay of city school teachers." Their passion was what carried out the legacy that kept the unions and foudnations alive throughout generations. Miss Goggins was elected to be a trustee for the Board of Eduacation Retirement Funds. Where was Miss Haley during this time? Was she still actively influencing teacher unions? Goggins was a teacher, which helped her standings in her position as trustee. This is beause it allowed her to see eye to eye with the people she worked with and affected, as opposed to having a superior viewpoint over them.
