ANTIOCHIANS.ORG FEATURES PAULA KRAUS PHOTOS

March 15th, 2009

     The College Revival Fund has a new website design thanks to Micah Canal at the CRF.  Why I mention this –some of the photographs featured are from my series on Antioch College – I am excited to help this cause–if only in a small way.

     Background: Antioch College was/is a liberal arts college started in 1853 by Horace Mann.  Since that time Antioch grew to become one of the most innovative and progressive colleges, noted for its extensive and groundbreaking co-op education, its blend of shared community governance, and classroom excellence.  Antioch encourages independent thinking, a global perspective, and activism.

     The Yellow Springs campus, which is one of six, was closed in 2008 by the board of trustees.  A group of concerned alumni have been trying to revive the college and anitiochians.org is their home site.

   The images of Antioch on my website were taken in 2007-2008 during the colleges last year of operation.

Take a look at www.antiochians.org.  Donate while you are there!02antioch_12antioch_2
