She toured Europe from 1883 to 1885 and then lived in Baltimore until 1887 but figure out not what she wanted with her education and skills. Jane Addams attended medical college of woman in Pennsylvania but, probably due to her ill health and chronic back pain, left. Her father, whom she admired tremendously, died in that same year, 1881. She graduated from Rockford female seminary in 1881, among the first students to take a course of study equivalent to that of men at other institutions. Her mother died when she was two years old in 1862, and her father and later a stepmother reared her. American social reformer and pacifist Jane Addams in 1889 founded Hull house, a care and education center for the poor of Chicago, and in 1931 shared the Nobel Prize for peace.
