History
Alice Dorothy Sim was born on the 24th of January 1896. She resided at Whinknowe, Dalserf, Lanarkshire, while completing her studies at The Glasgow School of Art. Sim attended the School between 1915-1920, undertaking day classes in Drawing and Painting in a variety of locations around the School including Room 37C and Room 40. Sim received a number of accolades during this time, including the Needlework Prize during the 1917-18 session and a Carnegie Bursary worth £5 during the same year.
In the student registers the note 'Prov. Com Students' is written next to Sim's name. In 1906 the Glasgow Provincial Committee for the Training and Certification of Teachers was established by the Scotch Education Department and Glasgow School of Art became a centre for teacher training. It was also at this time that the classes were renamed Article 55. Classes were now run under the auspices of the new Provincial Committee and it was they who took over responsibility for the first and second year courses leaving the School of Art to concentrate on the more advanced classes.
