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.

This part of the exhibit tells the unfolding story of McCarthyism at Queens College during the 1940s-1950s. Text and images are adapted from a previous exhibit that was installed in the Rotunda of the Benjamin Rosenthal Library at Queens College from September 2 through October 18, 2003 that was curated by Dorothy Pita (Queens College alumnus) and Lawrence Kaplan (Queens College alumnus and Professor Emeritus of History at City College), with the assistance of designer Alice Sprintzen and Queens College Archivist Stephen Barto. Pita and Kaplan were students at Queens College during the period portrayed. The content is presented chronologically in the five sections listed below: Assault, Intimidation, Investigation, Expulsion, and Restitution.
