Osgood Bradbury: A Biobibliographical Study, Francesca J. Ruggieri
Osgood Bradbury: A Biobibliographical Study, Francesca J. Ruggieri
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The writer became interested in the lack of information relating to the little-known Maine author of the nineteenth century, Osgood Bradbury. This biobibliographical study carries out a review of his life and work. Bradbury is almost completely unknown in Maine literary circles in spite of having written nearly sixty novels. Many aspects of his life are as nebulous as many of the characters in his own stories. Even his birthdate is suspect, although there is some evidence to indicate that he was born in 1795, in New Gloucester, Maine. The writer found no evidence of his whereabouts from his birthdate …

Social Pressures Ease As Coeducational Living Finds Home, Jan Messier, Tom Bassols
Social Justice: Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
"To stay in or get in the coed dorm, I would go through hell or pay an extra $100 per semester." This remark was made by a 21-year-old student who moved to York Hall last fall especially to meet women. Most residents in the seven coed dorms on campus feel that living in a coed hall is socially beneficial, enjoyable and educational.
