This presentation, developed in partnership with San Diego State University, was written by Jonnie Wilson as a tribute to the authors of the 5,000 WWII letters housed in SDSU Library’s Special Collections and University Archives. Inspired by Lisa Shapiro’s acclaimed No Forgotten Fronts: From Classrooms to Combat, the program honors the legacy of Dr. Lauren C. Post, a World War I veteran and SDSU geography professor, who received the letters from several thousand former San Diego students who had gone off to war and then published them in a monthly Aztec News Letter that connected the students to each other and to the campus.
