Principle investigator Dr. Jo Anne Harris (retired)
The Virtual Caribbean Library is the third phase of an initiative to facilitate access to the Caribbean cultural, literary, and historical heritage.
Window into the Early Republic
Window into the Early Republic is an archive providing primary sources related to nineteenth century American history viewed through the life of Judge Agustin Smith Clayton, an influential judge, politician, and U.S. Congressman from the State of Georgia who lived and worked in the early 19th century. Materials collected by Dr. Michael Gagnon, GGC Professor of History.
Living Through the Pandemic
This oral history project facilitated by Dr. Ellen Rafshoon, GGC Professor of History, and her honors students aimed to document the college’s path through the COVID-19 crisis by compiling different perspectives of people within the college community.
