Summary
[edit]DescriptionThis Unique Photo-Memory Album Offers a Fascinating Window to Student Life at Cornell University from 1914 to 1918.png |
English: A Cornell University student created this album. Melvin Lorrel Nichols (1894-1981) was an undergrad from 1914-1918, and it is specifically those four years that his album meticulously depicts. It reveals an intimate and exciting view of co-educational college life, while at the same time gives a sense of the impact of WWI.
Melvin would become a prominent member of the Cornell University Chemistry Dept. teaching staff for almost four decades. The below blog post link highlights a selection of eight pages from this thick album, which contains hundreds of photos and other historical materials linked to Cornell University History. The goal of the author of this Wikipedia article is to receive suggestions and find ways to cooperatively share this historical material through various venues, by bringing these one of a kind, primary source materials to the attention of Cornell University's historical community, alumni association, and students enrolled in the film/documentary/cinema courses. https://theemperorandthespy.com/2021/02/the-discovery-of-this-photo-memory-album-offers-a-time-capsule-to-cornell-university-over-a-century-ago/ |
