Looking Back: Historical Briefs by Professor Tom Taylor
- During the time that ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ was unable to hold regular in-person classes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Professor of History Tom T. Taylor circulated several pieces on ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥'s history. Some originated in an earlier series, either This Month in ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ History or Happy Birthday ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥. Others have their origin in the ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ History Project or in some other, miscellaneous project. Sincerest thanks to Professor Taylor for connecting alumni, faculty, staff, and students through a historic lens. Learn More
