First Women of the University of Maryland, Baltimore

Posted on March 8, 2021 by Tara Wink

In March 2020, before UMB entered into mandatory telework due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the HSHSL installed an exhibit called First Women of the University of Maryland, Baltimore. As the title suggests, the exhibit highlighted the first women—first graduates, deans, etc.—of UMB. Unfortunately, the exhibit was installed a mere two weeks before the library shut down and was taken down before the library reopened in the fall; therefore, few people had the opportunity to view the exhibit. This blog post recreates the exhibit’s literature and photographs. Continue reading →

1920: A Look back at the School of Dentistry 100 Years ago

Posted on September 25, 2020 by Tara Wink

In the 1920-21 academic year the University of Maryland School of Dentistry was entering into its 39th session.
