Emma Hart Willard  founded the first school for women's secondary and higher education in the United States -- the Troy Female Seminary in Troy, New York.

Emma Hart Willard (1787–1870) was born to a farming family in Connecticut. But her father, a farmer, encouraged his daughter to learn to read and write.  She went on to want to encourage education for other women.  The Troy Female Seminary, which she founded, actually was started in 1821 (not 1826) - I wonder if there's a typo in your question?  According to the National Park Service, Troy Female Seminary  is recognized as the country's first secondary school for females.  Emma Willard's goal was to provide young women with the same educational opportunites as men.

In 1895, The Troy Female Seminary was renamed The Emma Willard School in honor of the founder.  It operates today as a university-prep school / boarding school for young women in grades 9-12, with an enrollment in the 300s.

Ierofanga [76]

The Indian Appropiation Act contained several acts enacted by the US Congress between the late 19th century and the early 20th century.

One of the most outstanding acts was the Indian Appropriations Act from 1871. According to it, Indians would not be treated anymore as an "independent nation, tribe, or power". In turn, Indians would be considered as "wards" of the federal goverment. This provision considers Indians somehow like children, as if they needed a tutor.

From this moment onwards, the US goverment did not have to mantain endless negotiations to sign treaties with the different Indian tribes. Also treaties that had been signed before the Act were not enforceable anymore.

The act made much easier for the US government to exercise control over lands which were previously dominated by the Indians.

Due process is the process through the court system in judicial branch that all american citizens have the right for trial in court and if this didn't happen a lot of innocent people would be in jail/prison because they did not have a fair trial, it would be unconstitutional to not give a citizen the right of due process.
