I am a senior History Major (with a Mathematics minor!) and I decided to take this course when Dr. McClurken told me about this cool Digital History project that would research the homefront experiences of different universities during World War I. UMW is definitely an interesting college to look at, especially because it used to be an all-girls school, so the homefront experience is bound to be interesting! I also thought that this class would be a great opportunity for me to learn about Digital History and actually get some research experience in the field. I love working in archives, and archival research is part of my group’s project, so it was yet another inducement for me to partake in this adventure. I can’t wait to see what this project has in store for me!
