RE: Bryn Mawr College, Quarantines, and a Spanish Flu Success Story
Oh my goodness, I love that comic so much!
I tried to explore different archives rather than online newspapers this time, but couldn't find anything that really grabbed my interest. Great job finding these!
Omg yes isn't the comic great :D
Thanks! Honestly I stumbled onto these by accident... I was actually planning a piece on the commencement speech given at Gratz College in spring 1919 and I was trying to research if they'd supported any humanitarian efforts during the epidemic and came across UMich's finding aid instead...
But I agree that newspapers are so much more convenient for this type of research, especially when primarily researching digitized documents (because who has time to actually go to physical archives, lol).
