About
This online exhibit was created through a partnership between the Chemung County Historical Society and Elmira College. In the 2014 Term III, eleven students in the class "Doing Public History" researched Elmira during the Gilded Age. Each student chose a topic, wrote a paper, and examined objects and documents from the CCHS collections. Under the guidance of CCHS staff, students learned the mechanics of virtual exhibit design and label writing and turned their research into this exhibit.
