She graduated from Oberlin College in 1918 and pursued a career as a published writer and political, feministic, radical activist. She received both her A.B. in English Literature and her Master's (1920) degrees from Oberlin College, and pursued additional studies beyond. As a student at Oberlin College, Katharine Shepard Hayden was a member of the Phi Alpha Phi Literary Society, secretary of the Student Government League, member of the Honor Court and League Council, Vice-President of the Union Library Association, member of the board of editors of the Literary Magazine, member of the YWCA Board, and a singer in the Musical Union. During her time as a student, she wrote poetry, and according to the 1919 edition of the Oberlin Alumni Magazine, a college anthology called The Poets of the Future included some of her poems. The Oberlin College Library holds some of her writings, including her poetry. She attended a training camp at Vassar College (1918-1919) in order to become a nurse, and followed this training with two months of nursing at Mt. Sinai Hospital, New York City. After this brief career in nursing, Katharine Shepard Hayden worked as an assistant Professor of English at Berea College, in Berea, Kentucky (1920-21), then ceased working professionally once she married John Thomas Salter (A.B. Oberlin College 1921).) - http://oberlinarchives.libraryhost.com/?p=collections/controlcard&id=124 found: Correspondence with Oberlin College Libraries Main Special Collections, May 12, 2020(Katharine Hyden Salter)
