Faculty and Student
Organizations and Projects
The History Department invites all students--majors and non-majors alike--to participate in the following organizations and projects.
The history department has a long tradition of producing historical texts in electronic form. Our Hanover Historical Texts Project (primary sources the department has made available online for college history classes) was one of the first of its kind. Current projects include Today in Hanover History (online/email publication of primary sources in college history) and Documents on the History of Hanover College (primary sources from Hanover's past that the department makes available to the public, focusing especially on material from the college archives). For more details, contact Prof. Sarah McNair Vosmeier: vosm@hanover.edu.
