Online Exhibit: Building a University: Vanderbilt’s Second Decade, 1885-1895
About the Project
This semester, three students examined historically significant university manuscripts and documents in the Special Collections Library and placed them in context with the university’s and the nation’s history. Fellows curated an exhibition about Vanderbilt’s second decade, learning to interpret primary sources and presented a report on what they learned.
