Authors try to show what it was like to be a female student of science at the Calvinistic University in the Netherlands in the period 1930-1960. Although the numbers of female students of science were small compared to male students of science and also compared to female students of science at other Dutch universities, they felt themselves well accepted and treated. All of them taught in one way or another, but their career was always subordinated to their duties of a wife and a mother. Paper presented at the International Conference in Prague, june 8 till june 2003.
