Synopsis
How Ohio State faced hard times and wartime change This volume traces how the university navigated the Depression era and the aftershocks of global conflict, shaping classrooms, careers, and campus life for decades to come.
During these years, budgets tightened and salaries fell while faculty and staff adapted to new realities. Enrollment data show trends through the early 1930s, with gradual recovery and shifts in programs to meet changing needs. The book also looks at student life, instruction, and the growth of the university’s research and public service work under pressure.
- The impact of economic strain on operations, staffing, and library acquisitions
- Changes in enrollment patterns and how courses and programs responded
- Wartime training efforts, student corps, and the university’s support for national needs
- The role of notable figures and international cooperation in advancing science and education
Ideal for readers of university history, especially those curious about how big campuses adapted during the Depression and World War I eras, and Ohio State’s place in that story.
