Comments
One of several multimedia essays narrating "the history of places, people, events, and movements on the campuses of George Mason University and Old Dominion University."
"Using aerial photographs, interactive maps, and digitized archival materials, Mapping the University explores the construction of these two twentieth-century campuses to address the following question: what can the built environment of a college campus tell us about the changing social landscape of the university and its role in reshaping the surrounding areas?"
The project was supported by a 4-VA Collaborative Research Grant.
