Mildred Duncan Warnecke Collection
TCNJ006 · Colección · 1906-2000

Content warning: The illustration and description of the mural (in Box 1, Folder 3) include inaccurate, derogatory, and/or offensive depictions of people indigenous to the area.

The Mildred Duncan Warnecke Collection predominately contains student group photographs, photo albums depicting family life, sports and leisure activities, rural scenes, and Normal School students; newsletters and student activities of the class of 1907, and reunion materials related to Gamma Sigma Nu. The collection also contains copies of The Seal yearbook and The Signal newspaper. It is unclear how Warnecke came to acquire the photo albums created by Louise Woodruff Bush, although Bush was an older Gamma Sigma Nu member, and Warnecke was very active in the sorority, attending the annual reunions. The collection spans 1906-2000, with most of the materials falling between 1906-1969.

Mildred Bard Charlesworth Pepper Papers
TCNJ003 · Colección · 1913-1980 (bulk 1913-1915)

The bulk of the collection pertains to Mildred’s time at the New Jersey State Normal School at Trenton from 1913-1915. Of special note is her diary, which begins with a daily account of camping in Shawmont, Pennsylvania (now Roxborough, Northwest Philadelphia) before going off to Normal where she writes of her classroom and social activities. Her copy of the Seal yearbook is heavily signed and annotated with alumni information up to 1980. Her photograph collection documents students in their everyday lives on campus including in their dorm rooms, wearing gym uniforms, performing a Japanese Tea ceremony, and a possible inside joke of her and her friends enacting characters based on their teacher William N. Mumper (the yearbook is inscribed to indicate “Mumpers” characters). There also are several photographs of faculty members (before they were pictured in the yearbooks).

There are some additional materials from the late 1970s including Normal School alumni lists and photographs of her paintings from her post-retirement career as an artist.

Model School Commencement program, 1903
Model School Commencement booklet, 1903 · Unidad documental simple · 1903
Parte de TFPL New Jersey State Normal and Model Schools at Trenton and Successor Institutions Collection

This booklet from the 1903 Model School commencement includes lists of graduating students, their home towns, and their area of study. It also contains the list of commencement exercises. Of some note is the mention of an essay given by honor student Charlotta Miller on the Black poet and author Paul Lawrence Dunbar, which has unfortunately not survived. The student roster also includes several surnames that appear in other classes from around this period, namely Britton, De Cou, and Bosworth; these students may be siblings of those sharing their name. Some students from the Class of 1904 also appear. No transcription.

Swarthmore-Normal School debate booklet, 1918 · Unidad documental simple · 1918
Parte de TFPL New Jersey State Normal and Model Schools at Trenton and Successor Institutions Collection

This small booklet likely comes from the same unknown "black paper backing" scrapbook as several other documents from around 1918. It details the fifth annual debate between several debating societies of the New Jersey State Normal School and several from Pennsylvania's Swarthmore College. The topic for the debate, which took place amid American intervention in the First World War, regards whether colleges should substitute military training for athletics during the war.

Parte de TFPL New Jersey State Normal and Model Schools at Trenton and Successor Institutions Collection

A review of a meeting of the Thencanic Society by Harry R. Wilson. Although the report is not dated, Wilson was Thencanic Vice-President in 1897, so this likely dates to shortly before then. "Mr. Camp" is once again chided for his behavior, while "Mr. H. Lawrence" and "Mr. [Charles] Hewitt" receive some tongue-in-cheek remarks. Transcript attached.
