Maya Lin yet again with another memorial type piece of art/architecture. This is the Women’s table at Yale University. This table is for commemoration of Yale having 20 years of coeducation for men and women. This table represents the water bubbling over showing that more women getting into Yale and the expansion of education to ivy league schools to not just men. When Maya Lin created this design and when it was placed the enrollment of women never exceed the enrollment of men into the institution. Maya Lin left a note, that shows “Women have come this far at Yale, but have farther to go completely.”
