dc.description.abstractThe Maryland Agricultural College, forerunner of the University of Maryland, College Park, had scarcely opened its doors when the Civil War began, and the far-reaching events of those four years of conflict affected its organizational history and the personal lives of many individuals associated with it. The exhibit "A College Divided: Maryland Agricultural College and the Civil War" highlights the lives of just a few of those individuals - students, faculty, administrators, stockholders, and trustees - examining this chapter of American history through a specific prism. The 27-panel display is followed by a bibliography and description of research methodology.en_US
