Title
A name given to the resource
Sherman House Letters Collection
Description
An account of the resource
Sherman House was a dormitory for Abbot Academy girls who lived on campus. During the renovation of this house, a tin box was found in the wall, containing letters dating from the early 1950s until Abbot Academy's merger with Phillips Academy in 1973. Most of the letters were written by the student occupants of Sherman House during exam week, prior to moving into another dorm or leaving Abbot Academy after graduation. Some letters are from students who spent a lot of their time with friends in Sherman House. The letters range in topic, but all capture a moment in life of what it was like to be a student living on the Abbot campus during the late 20th century.

Description
An account of the resource
Sherman House was a dormitory for Abbot Academy girls who lived on campus. During the renovation of this house, a tin box was found in the wall, containing letters dating from the early 1950s until Abbot Academy's merger with Phillips Academy in 1973. Most of the letters were written by the student occupants of Sherman House during exam week, prior to moving into another dorm or leaving Abbot Academy after graduation. Some letters are from students who spent a lot of their time with friends in Sherman House. The letters range in topic, but all capture a moment in life of what it was like to be a student living on the Abbot campus during the late 20th century.
