Henry Endicott

He was stationed at Ripon College from September-December, 1918 and recorded his time there in a series of letters to his girlfriend, Irene. Despite the tumult occurring elsewhere, students at Ripon College in 1918 seemed to share the same concerns and sources of fun as their peacetime counterparts.  He recounts the frivolities of freshmen/sophomore hazing as well as more serious campus issues, like fear of the Spanish Flu.
