“Snapshot of an Era: Uncovering our New Deal Past” is a major exhibit exploring the genesis of the university campus and the development of San Diego during the New Deal, a foundational time in the history of San Diego and San Diego State University.
Using archival photographs, institutional records, memorabilia and other primary resources, the exhibit highlights the impact of various New Deal programs on the physical campus environment and on student life during the 1930s, including the Works Progress Administration, the National Youth Administration and the Federal Emergency Relief Administration.
The exhibit is in conjunction with the installation of the restored Depression-era mural “NRA Packages” in the library. The exhibit is on display through summer session 2008 in Reference Services and the Donor Hall, as well as in the Department of Special Collections. |
