Correspondence -- Student War Record

The LIFE AT C.I.T. series contains records related to student activities and entertainment on campus during World War I. Many of these records relate to the entertainment provided for the soldiers on the weekends during their training, such as dinner parties with local families, boxing matches and musical and educational programs. There is also information about the commemorative pageant held on campus after the war in order to memorialize those lost during the war. In addition, there are copies of a book of war poetry (Carnegie Tech War Verse, 1919) written by students and soldiers who trained at CIT.
