This blog is a part of the Century America Project being run by the Council of Liberal Arts Colleges. The goal of the Century America Project is to map out and create a digital history of what the participating universities in COPLAC were like during the First World War. The blog updates on this site are by Shepherd University student James (Jimmy) Horn and will be a combination of assignments being used for the course and updates on research of Shepherd University (then Shepherd College) and the surrounding area during the Great War. The class’s total blog can be found here.
