Slavery at South Carolina College, 1801 - 1865 website

From the GLC Newsletter, March 19 e-newsletter (Gilder Lehrman Center): 

The Public History Program at the University of South Carolina welcomes comments on a new website, “Slavery at South Carolina College, 1801–1865: The Foundations of the University of South Carolina”: http://library.sc.edu/digital/slaveryscc/index.html.  While many American colleges and universities in recent years have been researching their historical connections to the institution of racial slavery, this website is the first public acknowledgement of the role of slaves and slavery at the antebellum college that became the University of South Carolina.  It was researched and created entirely by students, first in an undergraduate history course and then in a graduate public history seminar.  Comments may be left on the website or sent directly to Prof. Robert Weyeneth weyeneth@sc.edu
