HADLEY HISTORYHADLEY HISTORY100 Years Ago:The Story of William Hadley“When your life’s ambition has failed you, pick up anew thread of endeavor make your renewal of effortcount for other people because when you think ofthe other fellow only and not yourself, your ownproblem fades into insignificance; in unselfishnesslies the real thrill of being alive.” —William A. HadleyWhen William Hadley lost his vision in 1915 at the ageof 55, it was a difficult adjustment. A teacher with a loveof books and learning, he was frustrated by the lack ofeducational opportunities for blind people.Over the next years, Mr. Hadley taught himself brailleand learned to accept his vision loss. However, he waswithout a strong sense of purpose until 1919 when he setout to use his talents and experience as an educator toteach other blind adults by correspondence courses.By 1920, word of his idea was spreading. A farmer’s wifein Kansas wrote to him desperate to learn braille so shecould read again, and “braille by mail” was born. Shemailed her exercises to Mr. Hadley who correctedand returned them with notes of help and encouragement.This successful experience demonstrated how Hadley’sdistance-learning model was ideal for adults with visualimpairment; they could acquire needed knowledge withouttraveling or disrupting their lives.With the help of co-founder, Dr. E.V.L. Brown, a renownedophthalmologist and William Hadley’s neighbor, theschool grew quickly. An advertisement for Hadley’s8correspondence school led to replies from across theUnited States, and as far away as China, reinforcing thesignificant need for the services he was offering.William Hadley soon expanded the course catalog toinclude more subjects, interests and past times. Usingonly the modest means of his teaching pension, heprovided education to more than 60 students free ofcharge in the school’s first year. This policy of tuition-freeeducation that Mr. Hadley established a century agocontinues to underpin Hadley learning today.As the years went on, the School’s enrollment, curriculumand staff grew. Mr. Hadley continued to develop, brailleand teach many of the courses as well as braille personalletters of correction and encouragement to accompanyeach lesson he sent to students. Due to health issues, hehad to scale back his teaching in 1936, at the age of 76.The year before his death in 1941, Hadley reflected upon hislife in an interview with the Chicago Tribune, remarking: “Ihad been a teacher all my life and my work was not done.I was idle several years, adjusting myself, but eventually Idecided that my ability to teach had not left with my sight.Now I know that my most valuable work has been done inthe last 20 years. I am not sorry that I was made blind." 9
HADLEY LEARNINGHADLEY LEARNINGWhen the Depression prompted the need for morepractical learning, classes such as insurance selling andpoultry raising were added to the curriculum. In the 1940s,the school expanded with courses in economics, first aid,accident prevention, and bookkeeping.A Century of LearningFor a century, Hadley has provided distance learningto help people who are blind or visually impaired readand write braille, manage everyday tasks, navigate aworld only intended for sighted people, and masterprofessional skills needed in their employment.Since William Hadley began providing blind and visuallyimpaired individuals with learning they could not findelsewhere, the institution that bears his name hascontinued to proactively identify gaps and developlearning solutions to address these needs. It would beimpossible to include 100 years of Hadley learning in thissmall space, but here are a few highlights:Soon after William Hadley began teaching “braille by mail,”it became clear there was a need for learning across a widerange of topics. So, the school taught classes on subjectsincluding English grammar, bible study, math, languages,and history.10In the 1960s, enrollment continued to grow exponentially,and Hadley began to focus on a critical problem forpeople with vision loss: finding employment. This greateremphasis on vocational training prompted new courseson blind medical transcription, secretarial occupations,computer science, music notation, and updatedcourses in business, sales and abacus.In the 1970s, Hadley introduced the High School Programthat was geared towards the millions of blind adults whohad not had the opportunity to complete high school.This allowed visually impaired students to earn a highschool diploma, either completely through Hadley or tosupplement course credit from traditional schools.While Hadley had always helped family members, itformally launched the Parent/Child Program in 1984 tofocus on the special needs of parents and family members.In 2014, Hadley launched the Low Vision Focus @ Hadleyin response to the growing number of people who havelow vision due to age-related conditions such as maculardegeneration, glaucoma and diabetes. This initiative laidthe groundwork for much of the new curriculum that hasjust been rolled out with Hadley’s new learning platform. 11
THE FUTURE OF HADLEYTHE FUTURE OF HADLEYHadley of the FutureIt has been 100 years since William Hadleyrevolutionized learning for adults with vision loss.Now, we are doing it again.Bringing together our experience in the field, our distancelearning model, our scalable technology and our expertisein the areas of technology, braille, business and adjustmentto vision loss, we have reimagined Hadley for the future.Hadley’s new learning approach will enable us to help thegrowing number of adults who will be facing vision lossin the future due age-related eye diseases. According tothe National Eye Institute, by 2030, this will include morethan five million older adults.Poor visual acuity is just the beginning of their challenges.Impaired sight can make everyday tasks, such as gettingaround, meal preparation and medication management,difficult and dangerous. The loss of independence and lackof mobility that accompany vision loss frequently lead toisolation, depression and a reduced quality of life.As the leading provider of distance education for adultswho are blind and visually impaired worldwide, Hadley isuniquely qualified to serve this growing population andprovide the right training to mitigate the negativeconsequences of vision loss.When someone turns to Hadley, they find the help theyneed. They have immediate access to our programmingand experts to help navigate this difficult transition.12Instead of focusing onwhat they can’t do, Hadleyshows them what theycan do—and how to do it.Hadley’s new learningplatform makes it easierfor people to accesslearning resourcesthrough online workshops,discussion groups and podcasts that can be completed attheir own pace. Registration is fast and simple so learningcan begin immediately. The website is welcoming, easyto navigate and can be customized to best suit a user'sspecific vision issue.The entire site is also screen reader compatible for thoseindividuals without any usable vision. For those who need,or prefer, other mediums, the information can be accessedin large print, audio and braille.When learners have questions or need assistance, helpfrom Hadley’s knowledgeable instructors is close at hand.Hadley’s new platform and popular discussion groupforums also allow learners to be part of a communitywhere they can connect with one another to shareexperiences, information and interests.While Hadley is forging ahead into the future, we remaintrue to William Hadley’s original vision—providing essentiallearning to help adults with vision loss thrive. Free ofbarriers. Free of boundaries. Free of charge. 13
VOLUNTEERSVOLUNTEERSHadley's Volunteer TraditionHadley’s strong volunteer tradition starts at the verybeginning—and continues today.When William Hadley set out to teach braille by mail, hisfriend and neighbor, Dr. E.V.L. Brown stepped up to help.A renowned ophthalmologist and educator, Brown waspivotal in founding the school. He contributed essentialmanagement skills and galvanized business leaders fromacross the local area to support the endeavor. Brownremained devoted to the school for the rest of his life,serving as chair of the Board of Trustees from 1922 untilhis death in 1953.Brown’s dedication to Hadley was instilled in his daughter,Nancy, and her husband Clarence (Bud) Boyd Jones.Following Dr. Brown’s death, Bud Jones stepped in asboard chair and worked tirelessly for sixteen years to raiseHadley’s profile, expand its operations and put the schoolon firm financial footing.14Photos: Hadley has always been supported by a wonderful communityof volunteers--including individuals, the Board of Trustees, Teen Board,Lions Clubs International and Hadley Woman's Board.other talented and dedicated women from Chicago’sNorth Shore and got to work.Following in their footsteps, many other men and womenon Hadley’s Board of Trustees have brought to bear theirexpertise, skills and talents on Hadley’s behalf. With theirsupport and guidance, Hadley has overcome challenges,grown and flourished to become the largest educator ofbraille and provider of distance education for peoplewho are blind or visually impaired worldwide.Since then, the Woman’s Board has been an importantfinancial partner to Hadley, responsible for more than 5.5 million in contributions. This is thanks to theexceptional women who have contributed their creativity,energy and time to organize and execute many fun andunique events and fundraisers on Hadley’s behalf.It was Nancy Jones, Dr. E.V.L. Brown’s daughter, whofounded the Hadley Woman’s Board. In 1953, when theschool was facing severe financial challenges, sherecognized a solution “would require women, who keeptheir shoulder to the wheel.” Wasting no time, she recruitedIn addition to these groups, many, many others havedevoted their time, resources and energy to Hadley. Forexample, no history of Hadley would be complete withoutthe Lions Clubs International, which has raised significantfunds and awareness for Hadley around the world. 15
