Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

By 1911, 67 people were receiving care as Cragmor patients. 39 were men and 28 of them women. All patients ranged in age, but the average age of a consumptive receiving care at this time was 30 years old, the oldest being 47 and the youngest being 18 years old.
By 1926, Cragmor had patients from 30 different states and over 7 countries. The youngest patient was barely 5 years old and the oldest 50 years of age. The typical patient was 27-30 years old during this "Golden Age" of Cragmor Sanatorium.
By the 1940's the patients being seen had increased with the addition of the non-profit bailout, but the patients saw harsh living conditions and unsanitary care more than ever before. The sanatorium had turned into a nightmare.
