Research materials related to the production of Pamela Zabala's (Bowdoin College, Class of 2017) Honors project in Sociology, "Cooperate with Others for Common Ends?: Students as Gatekeepers of Culture and Tradition on College Campuses." This thesis considers topics of race and bias and draws on archival, ethnographic, and interview data collected at Bowdoin College to examine the relationship between students and between students and administrators. Materials include honors proposal drafts, a seed paper with early notes, interview guides, interview transcripts, Yik Yak posts (printouts and image files), a spreadsheet documenting related Bowdoin Orient articles (printed/annotated and electronic), a report from the Archives, "Ad-Hoc Committee on Racial Relations", 1984 with annotations, and project notepads.

Acknowledgment of non-neutrality

The George J. Mitchell Department of Special Collections & Archives, like all archives and special collections libraries, is the creation of human beings who have collected, organized, and described things in ways that reflect personal, cultural, societal, and institutional biases. Although we strive to preserve and present collections in a manner that is respectful to the individuals and communities who create, use, and are represented in the collections, we acknowledge that our systems are neither neutral nor perfect. We encourage you to let us know if you encounter materials, descriptive language, or practices that are offensive or harmful, particularly those for which inadequate context or warning is offered. We are committed to modifying and updating our descriptive practices to use respectful and inclusive terminology and appreciate your help in this work. We look forward to supporting you in your research and learning together.
