The CPH sadly lost one of our own during the summer of 2024, Dr. Aaron Crawford. Scholar, archivist, and editor extraordinaire. We have established a fund in his honor to help grad students reach the archives he loved so much. We invite you to give here: smu.edu/dedman/research/inst…

We had the pleasure to receive a visit from Howard Lee Martin of Ohio. Howard served as a First Class Seaman in the United States Navy during World War II and the Korean War. We thank him for his amazing service to our country!
