How did the woman suffrage movement respond to the congressional debates over the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments?
1) Women split over whether to endorse the Fifteenth Amendment, which omitted the word 'gender.'
2) Women gained the Supreme Court's support for the argument that women could not be denied the vote on the basis of gender.
3) The suffrage movement collapsed after rejection of its goals by Congress and disappeared for the next fifty years.
4) Frustrated by failure to win the vote, the movement shifted to focus on getting women admitted to colleges in greater numbers.
