Last day

Today I finished the last edits of all the catalog scans I've done.

These are all the physical catalogs and bulletins that were available from archives, for CLA, Atkinson, and the law school

I'm very excited I finished this project, and glad I got to work with these materials over the summer

Chemawa Prints Project Day 27

Today is my last day. I am wrapping up a few loose ends: measuring dimensions for a few last prints, editing titles from when I first started adding metadata, de-skewing scans, meeting with Sara, writing this last post, and checking in with Payroll.

This is the link to the Project Ideas page where I have listed possible future projects for the Charles Holmes Collection:

https://docs.google.com/a/willamette.edu/document/d/1QiRborGhVH5THI38eWFOSpxBcRhqoHvHERu11KPHzOQ/edit?usp=sharing

In the document I have listed tasks for future Digitization Assistants who will be working with the metadata or scans, and for the future students of Professor Dobkins' Museum Studies Seminar who will be working with the prints themselves.

There are three unlabeled large boxes in the stacks with items from Chemawa. I inspected the first box and found many empty envelopes, film, and prints that looked like those from the Charles Holmes Collection. The items are in sleeves. A mystery to be dealt with in the future...

I have de-skewed and adjusted the borders for CH 3020-3226. I came across a few scans that I must have skipped over when I was originally editing them because I had not edited them at all. I do not know how many of these are scattered throughout.

All the best,
Alexis Gjurasic

Day 41

I finished scanning all the physical copies I could find! I just need to finish up cropping, which shouldn't take long, then I'm done.

Will definitely finish tomorrow

Chemawa Prints Project Day 26

I have completed all scanning, editing, and data entry for the Chemawa Prints Project from the Charles Holmes Collection! I will continue to review the metadata from now until the end of my half-day of work tomorrow. Although there is quite a bit more that can be done to ensure the quality of the digital collection, notably de-skewing scans, editing metadata, and removing duplicates, the biggest hurdle is complete.

Many prints that I came across today stood out to me. I do not have many questions; I just wish to note them.

CH 2545 is mysterious. What is the purpose of the female students who stand onstage in matching uniforms and brooms? Why was a "Broom Brigade" needed? CH 2555 shows many smiling young females. Some hold dolls and a few pose with the index fingers to their lips. They all sport short haircuts and low waistlines. Is this the print Sybil mentioned as being her favorite? CH 2556 is a beautiful print showing male students in a workshop.

CH 2567 is a curious one: young males', perhaps students', heads have been cut off and replaced as the head of cartoon musicians.

There are many prints from a powwow, and a few stand out: CH 2570, 2577, 2578, 2579, and 2588. Students dance on the gymnasium floor and sit in the bleachers in CH 2575 and 2584.

There are many children playing in CH 2585. Are they on campus?

In CH 2590 a female student in traditional regalia and a male student in a uniform look at a tree with an engraved stone at its base. Are the female and child in CH 2593 at Chemawa?

CH 2600 was the last print in the collection to be digitized. It shows a group of female and male students and a male faculty member standing for a class portrait on the steps of buildings. They look as if they are laughing.

Thank you to Veronica Montano and the rest of the Chachalu Tribal Museum and Cultural Center staff for permission to work with the Charles Holmes Collection. Thank you to Professor Rebecca Dobkins for the opportunity to work on a project that will have such far-reaching effects. Thank you to the Willamette University Librarians and Archival Staff for the help and facilities and snacks. Thank you to those who have read my posts and kept up with my progress through the last two months. And thank you to the Chemawa Indian Boarding School Native American students pictured in this collection. I have seen a few snapshots from painful and confusing times in their lives, but these students were not only victims of forced assimilation. I have seen them as dancers in traditional regalia, and creators of Native art. They played sports and did work of which they appear to be proud. Many, many Native Americans from many different nations have attended Chemawa over the years. I hope the collection may someday provide healing to the descendants and friends of those photographed.

I look forward to the digital collection being made available to the public through the Chachalu Tribal Museum and Cultural Center's website and through Willamette University's digital University Archives; this should happen toward the end of summer 2017. I look forward to future Willamette students continuing to contribute to the collection as well. I hope to continue to witness how the digital collection can affect change.

Chemawa Prints Project Day 25

This is information from yesterday's workday... I completed some scanning in the morning then went to Grand Ronde to meet with Veronice Montano. We discussed the rest of the Charles Holmes Collection to gain a larger context for how the prints. I updated the Chachalu staff on my process for digitizing the prints.

I found another print of the sled: CH 2507. CH 2509 pictures female students playing tennis.

In CH 2513, there are only male students shown as members of band. In other prints I have seen girls playing instruments. When did this change occur?

Another print, CH 2535, shows students constructing a building? How often did this happen? Were the students compensated for their work? Are their any student-made buildings still standing today?

2501-2540, 3121-3160/3226

Day 40

Today I finished the Atkinson catalogs and scanned up to 1983 of the Law school catalogs

Only one small box left to be scanned, very excited x)

Day 38/39

I've scanned up to 2009 for CLA catalogs, and up to 1992 for Atkinson catalogs

After that is finished I believe there are a handful of law school ones.

Unless there are others that are already digital or that I don't know about, that should be it.

I'm hoping to finish entirely by Wed, and Thurs is my last work day before leaving

I'll continue coming in at 9 and I hope I can get this done x)

Chemawa Prints Project Day 24

I continue to work through the envelopes. I have completed digitizing through the twenty-sixth envelope. All digitizing will have been completed sometime on Wednesday.

Two prints stood out to me today. CH 2496 and 2499 show two male students working on a mural depicting a long line of wagons. How were Chemawa students taught about westward expansion and Manifest Destiny? How was history depicted in their classrooms?

2401-2500, 3001-3120/3226

Chemawa Prints Project Day 23

I continue to work through the envelope. I am currently digitizing the twenty-first envelope.

CH 2283 is a stunning print. It shows two female students, one with a blindfold over her eyes. They stand in front of a chalkboard; a reindeer is drawn on the board. Are they playing a game like pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey ?

CH 2976 and many other nearby prints are labeled "Fry bread sale in classroom." To whom did the students sell fry bread? Did they receive the profits? Was it a fundraising event?

There a few peculiar prints of adults with a device (CH 2324). One student in the past thinks they are doing "NBC training." This would refer to nuclear, biological, and chemical defense training. What was the precedent for this particular instance? CH 2324 is interesting because it seems like the adult on the right is fooling around with the instrument.

Print CH 2336 stands out because it depicts four students performing in traditional regalia.

I came across the first print that I can recall of the student band playing in a classroom -- CH 2378.

2301-2400, 2921-3000/3226

Day 36/37

Today and yesterday I scanned more of the late 90's from archives, and I'll be starting the 2000s tomorrow

Chemawa Prints Project Day 22

I am currently working through the sixteenth envelope, completing scans for over two hundred prints today.

There are more prints of the sled: CH 2191, 2221, 2246, 2251, 2255, 2257, 2258, and 2267. I came across many color prints of what looks like a homecoming parade (CH 2822, 2837, and 2840).

CH 2228 shows female students playing baseball in dresses.

I am not sure what CH 2870 is depicting; there seem to be dozens of cement blocks with metal plates. Are these headstones?

2187-2292, 2821-2920/3226

Chemawa Prints Project Day 21 (20 1/2)

I continue to make progress on the envelopes; I am currently tackling the eleventh.

Many of the large prints I came across today were very clear with appealing images. Two stood out to me: CH 2772 and 2776. Both are close-up images of female students. The female in CH 2776 wears a beautiful fur coat.

There were a few student portraits I came across mounted on a thick cardboard-like material (CH 2171-2180). The students are dressed very nicely. CH 2166 is interesting because it shows a child next a totem pole that I have not seen so far in the prints. It is shorter and had a different style than the other totem poles.

CH 2811-2818 are more prints of the student-made sled. A few prints show the male student working on the sled.

2161-2186, 2773-2820/3226

Day 35

I did OCR for 1924-1928

Did the Sparks_Lestle project for Mary

Scanned 1991-1995

I've been scanning the third copies only, so I'll have to backtrack a few years to make sure I got everything in the bound volumes as well

Day 34

Today I did OCR for 1917-1924, and scanned from 1970 to 1991

Hoping to make even more progress tomorrow, as well as do the Sparks project from Mary in the morning

Chemawa Prints Project Day 20 (18 2/2)

I have completed scans and edits for the eighth envelope and have a few more for the ninth folder.

In the sleeve of CH 2748 was another smaller sleeve with a cut-out of a decorative band and its description on a small piece of lined paper. I digitized the cut-out as CH 3226, and noted where it had been found. It is now in the box with the other random prints.

I came across another print of male students ironing (CH 2744).

CH 2743 appears to show Mark O. Hatfield at his desk with four young males, perhaps scouts, standing behind him. At least one of the males is a Chemawa student, as labeled on the back.

2121-2160, 2740-2772/3226

Chemawa Prints Project Day 19

I have completed scanning through the seventh envelope of thirty-one.

CH 2684 is an interesting print because it depicts a large display case of hand-weaved baskets. Are these baskets at Chemawa today, or are they in storage with the many other items on the inventory list? Is there a chance that these baskets are in Hallie Ford?

CH 2685 shows adult males using nets to fish at Celilo Falls. There is a typed message on the back discussing the falls and Native peoples treaty rights to "perpetual netting and spearing rights."

On the back of CH 2695 is a handwritten message discussing Robert Jim, a student who was "very hard of hearing." Apparently a teacher interpreter accompanied him when he went for a hearing aid fitting. His teacher believed he had "gotten very little from class." Was this hearing aid paid for by the school? How often did Chemawa provided support for differently-abled students? What support does Chemawa provide today? What was Robert Jim's experience at Chemawa? Did he want a hearing aid?

Another print of students with an aircraft has popped up. CH 2703 shows students with a small plane, not a helicopter like the other earlier prints. Are these the Alaska Native students who were taught how to pilot a plane?

I came across many prints of students in traditional regalia at the same event as yesterday, perhaps a powwow. The prints of group portraits and dancers are very clear and show the detail of their regalia very well. CH 2712 and 2715 are good examples.

Many prints throughout the collection depict male students presenting creations from their industrial training. CH 2730 is a group portrait posing with a large electrical board labeled "Basic Automotive Electric System."

2061-2120, 2681-2739/3225

Chemawa Prints Project Day 18 1/2

Today I worked a half-day, completing scans, edits, and titles.

I found more interesting demonstrations of gender roles: CH 2649 shows a female instructor teaching male students about sewing and CH 2052 shows female students playing a game with balls in a gymnasium. The female in the center looks about to throw a ball.

I came across a print with sticky notes marking that it needed to be integrated into the collection. I added an identification number (CH 3225) and digitized it. It is being housed in the large box with the other random prints. The print was originally in the back of the folder with prints CH 2041-2060 and 2661-2680.

CH 2654 is a print of an industrial instruction room with lots of machinery. The black and white contrast is eye-catching. CH 2655 is remarkable for its color as well. It is a print of two male students dressed in very bring traditional regalia. It is credited to the Oregon Statesman, photo by John Ericksen.

Many prints that I came across today (around CH 2663-4) depict students in traditional regalia dancing at what appears to be a powwow. The stage is set with trees, a tipi, two males at a campfire, miniature tipis, and a painted backdrop of a mountain. The scene reminded me of another print, CH 1091, with two males, an adult and child, in traditional regalia. I discussed this print in a previous post because I was confused as to its setting. All you can see are trees and the two men, but in the bottom left corner there is a miniature tipi that resembles the ones in these later prints. Upon further inspection, both the early and later prints appear to be taken at a powwow. Although the people in the prints are not the same and do not wear the same clothing, the trees, tipi, and backdrop look very similar. I conclude that these photos were both taken at powwows but during different years.

CH 2665 shows a tapestry, perhaps handmade and student-made. The name "Alice J." is sewn into the tapestry. The figure in the tapestry holds an object that looks similar to the object the dancer holds in CH 2606.

One group portrait of adults had their names listed on the back. They are apparently the hospital staff. Very few first names of adults have been written on the back of the prints so far.

2041-2060, 2647-2679/3225

Day 33

I scanned from 1962-1970

Chemawa Prints Project Day 17

I first finished titling the scans from yesterday then moved on to the second large box with envelopes. I completed scans and edits for the first two envelopes and am making progress on the third. The folders are different than the boxes because they contain large prints, which start at CH 2601, and small prints, which continued from 1981. I continue to work on the metadata as small problems pop up. Each folder has a name on it. I am guessing that these are students who created the metadata for those prints.

CH 2641 is a cutout print mounted on thicker paper. How should I Photoshop this scan? I have made one edit titled img2641 copy.tif.

Many prints stood out to me today. CH 1962 and 1964 show students in what may be student-made regalia. They perform for adults at tea. What is the purpose of this performance? Are the students entertaining visitors to the school?  CH 1980 is another print of the student and his sled in the snow. The photographer is pictured again. CH 1817 and 1818 pictures a display of perhaps student-made items. The appear to be detailed engravings and prints. The items are belt, books, Varsity letters, depictions of wildlife, and many more.

Who is the man in CH 1834? He appears to be in many of the prints with the band, but he is pictured here carving a totem pole. What roles did he play at Chemawa? A male and female look like they are about to or have been married in CH 1836. The female wears a white dress and the male a suit. Are they Chemawa students, faculty, employees, or alumni? Did students ever get married while they attended Chemawa?

CH 1982, 1984, 1987, and 1989 appear to be taken at the same location where students are on a field trip. The first three depict totem poles, and the third depicts a canoe on stilts. Where were these prints taken? How often did the students go on field trips? Would the students ever have come to this location on their own? What was the significance of this place? How close is it to Chemawa?

One print may be of interest to Marsha Smalls (Northern Cheyenne), a woman conducting research on the Chemawa Cemetery. CH 1994 is a portrait of a headstone. On the headstone is engraved the following: Lena Johnson; Feb 1, 1913; Jan 22, 1920; Ft. Yukon, Alaska.

A few prints stood out today for their aesthetic value. Male students are gathering and cleaning fish in CH 1977. CH 1979 shows some of the same students with fishing poles. Was this a field trip? CH 2606 shows a dancer in traditional regalia that has appeared before. I believe the dancer is at the pageant. CH 2607 shows many students in costume onstage. The stage is set, and it looks like the students have performed a play or musical of some sort. Six students pose for a portrait in CH 2608. On the back in written "Class of 1906." This may be the oldest print I have come across so far. There are many large prints like it that may be from the same time (CH 2621-2624). CH 2626 shows two male students running in a relay race. They run through the rain and mud, and the print captures large puddles splashing as they take steps.

CH 2609 shows students in basketball uniforms and a male adult that I assume is the coach. I have seen him in many other prints, but they have all been with football players. How many teams did this man coach? For how long did he coach at Chemawa?

CH 2619 depicts twelve female students doing carpentry. It accompanies the questions I have brought up concerning gender roles.

A large flood is captured in CH 2004. Houses are engulfed in water. The date is February 1965.What flood was this?

1981-2040, 2601-2656, 3221-3224/3224

Day 32

I scanned bulletins from 1954 to 1962

Chemawa Prints Project Day 16

I finished scanning and editing the last box. I will finish titling through 1981 then move on to the second large box holding the envelopes. The editing of the metadata is almost finished, apart from the titles which will be finished parallel to the scanning and editing.

Mary and I took a look at the loose prints and other items in the first large box that do not have accession numbers. I talked to Professor Dobkins, and these items had been sitting in her office, so there is no plan to digitize them with the prints I am working on now or give them accession numbers.

I had been struggling with the most respectful way to record gender and sex in the titles and descriptions. From now on, I will record gender/sex as male/female child(ren)/student(s)/adult(s).

It turns out the missing metadata had just been misplaced. I will combine the metadata to maximize detail in 'Description' and 'Key terms.'

Professor Dobkins noticed some remarkable details in CH 1582. Two Alaska Native women wear ornate parkas in the snow. On the border of the parka worn by the female on the left are small figures on sleds with dogs, an igloo, and a walrus. The parkas have fur collars and borders.

1860-1981/3223

Today I was able to finish the Glee Documents, they are under the Glee folder under "Summer 2017 Scans".  I then moved on to straightening the Chemawa scans.  I left off on img0143.tif.  Thank you for everything, I will see you all next year!

Today I continued to work on the Glee Documents. I might be able to finish them by mid-day tomorrow. 

Day 31

I scanned more bulletins, from 1950-54

Chemawa Prints Project Day 15

This morning I finished the metadata for CH 1441-1460, 1521-1540, and 1681-1700. This included all subject fields. I then started digitizing the seventh box. This is the last box.

There are quite a few items in folders in the large box for the collection. Some of them are prints. Are these items also part of the collection? Is there any plan for those items to be archived?

CH 1456 is an interesting print that does not seem to fit in with the rest. It shows two female children standing outside of an open doorway. Are they wearing traditional Navajo dress? The girl looking at the camera wears a dark long-sleeved shirt with a necklace and a light floor-length skirt. She wears socks and shoes and a bandanna-like hair wrap. Does this print accompany the others that might have been taken on the Navajo reservation?

1761-1863/3220

Today I continued to scan the Glee documents. 

Day 30

Today I continued scanning bulletins, up to 1950-51

Chemawa Prints Project Day 14

The editing and scanning for the sixth box are finished. I have begun to fill in the missing metadata, but I will have to continue this tomorrow. This will take a few hours tomorrow. I came across more hidden prints. CH 1755 b and c were hidden behind 1755 a. Neither are duplicates. Both b and c have metadata, but they are listed in the same cells and 1755 a. I have digitized these two as well as the one I came across yesterday. They have ID #s CH 3321-3323. I will get sleeves for them and put them in the large empty box with the collection as well as add to the metadata so they have their own data cells. 

I continued to work on the metadata by adding columns for 'filename,' 'Date,' 'Subjects,' and 'Title' and editing 'Black and white or color' and 'Paper dimensions.'

An interesting print I came across today show young female students operating some sort of pulley system (CH 1602). Did the young women build this contraption that looks like a science project? Is this evidence of young women in STEM in the 1950s or 1960s?

Today I was able to finish with the Paulus Slides.  I then moved on to scan some Glee Documents.  

Day 29

Today I scanned more bulletins from 1940-1946

Chemawa Prints Project Day 13

Today I continued to work on the sixth box which I will finish tomorrow. I finished titling through CH 1600. Over the weekend I completed dating for all the metadata.

There were a few errors with labeling - two sets of CH 1541-1560. One of the sets must be CH 1521-1540. There was no metadata for CH 1521-1540, so I relabeled the ids numbers on the prints and titled them. I will fill in the other metadata tomorrow by hand because there is none in the original metadata either. The same case is true for CH 1441-1460; there is no original metadata. I will fill this in tomorrow as well.

Curiously, I found a second print in the same sleeve as CH 1552. This second print is not a duplicate, and I have not come across any metadata for it. I will get a sleeve for it and keep looking for its metadata. If I do not find any then I will add it to the end as CH 3221.

CH 1560 was mislabeled, and I corrected it to CH 1580. The person who went through this box before me wrote on a sticky note that the photo may be mislabeled. They also noted on the box that there were some mistakes with numbering, as I described in the second paragraph. I have noted that I fixed the problems on the sticky notes.

CH 1448 and 1449 are group portraits of students in traditional regalia. The photos list the names of the students on the back. One of them has "Queen" as her title. Do these prints show students at a powwow?

CH 1479 and 1421 show a man who has popped up many times throughout the collection. Who is this man? Is he the superintendent?

CH 1491 and 1491 show students carving a totem pole. Are these the totem poles that stand at the entrance to Chemawa in so many photos? Did the students design the totem poles as well? How many of the totem poles over the years have been carved by students?

CH 1550 stood out to me because it is a beautiful print. It shows young boys making silly faces at the camera.

In CH 1582, two young women play in the snow. On the back is written "Credit: Oregon Statesman." Does this mean that this print is copied from the Oregon Statesman to be put in the yearbook? If so, could I find this photo on the original newspaper? Handwritten is also the date "2-3-63."

1486-1640/3220

Day 28

I did OCR today again from 1901 to 1917

Day 27

Today I did OCR for bulletins 1882-1901

Today I continued to work on the Paulus Negatives.  I came close to finishing up the edits but I still have a few left that I'll finish on Monday.  

Day 26

I scanned bulletins and also started OCR of the earlier scanned ones, from 1860-1882

Today I continued to work on the Paulus Negatives.  I finished scanning the third box I just have to go back and edit the scans now.  

Chemawa Prints Project Day 12

I finished titling the fifth box then started on the sixth (CH 1421-1760). Many of the prints were mislabeled in the metadata (CH 1320-1340). I met with Sara Amato and Rebecca Dobkins today to check in on my progress. I have started a Google Doc to record my ideas for potential projects with the prints.

The following are more findings from my time with the Charles E. Larsen Collection yesterday. 

I did not find anything directly related to Daniel Boone, the student Marsha Smalls is interested in, but I did deduce a few things. Unfortunately, there is actually very little information about the students themselves in the collection. The only notable or consistent places where students are named is in lists of graduating classes and in rosters for sports teams. In the graduation lists are the name, tribe, blood quantum, age at graduation, and home state of the students. The team rosters also had game scores and specific information about many, many games. I did not look to see which years they spanned. 

The first Yakima student to graduate from Chemawa was in the Class of 1907. Her name was Apis Goudy. A list of all students who attended Chemawa would have been in Book 4 of Larsen's original materials, but Willamette only received the first page of this book. The book may have been destroyed. Charles E. Larsen, the namesake of the collection, started attending Chemawa on June 26, 1893, very shortly after the death of Daniel Boone. There were a few students in later years with the last name Boothe, but not Boone.

CH 1207 is labeled with the names Loulin and Ernest Brewer. I found the name Brewer multiple times in the Collection, along with Loulin's name. She was a member of the Class of 1909. She is Puyallup. Her blood quantum is labled as 2/4. She graduated at the age of 16. Her state of residence is listed as Washington. There are many other Brewers who graduated from Chemawa: Sarah, Katie, Ella, Ruth H., and Gertrude. There was an article by a woman with the last name of Brewer. 

I have asked whether or not Chemawa students participated in student government, and I found proof that they did. 

1421-1485/3220

Today I continued to work on the Paulus Negatives.  I was able to finish with the second box and am now working on the third one.  

Chemawa Prints Project Day 11

Today, I worked with the Charles E. Larsen Collection to find information on a former Chemawa student. I was unsuccessful in this endeavor, but I did piece together some answers to questions I have previously generated from the prints.

 I found a letter in the Collection discussing Chemawa's participation in the Portland Grand Floral Parade float from 1933. Another page describes the float and the affair of decorating it. CH 1399 and 1408 show a different floral parade float from 1961.  Perhaps this later float was part of Portland Rose Festival but at a later date. Is this evidence of Chemawa's continued participation in the parade? Do Chemawa staff and students still participate? How often have they participated?

In a past blog post I asked whether or not Chemawa students had been paid for their labor. I found evidence in annual reports showing that these students were supposed to get paid. There was also an article saying that one faculty member had not only whipped students, and made other students whip each other, but he had also been accused of withholding pay. In the reports, it also said that the produce they raised started around $2,000 when they started the school and in a few years following often exceeded $3,000. Many trades also had sums for the materials they created. The language used for justifying pay is interesting. It says that the students owe the government for their education, but they pay them anyways in order to learn how to manage money. Pay started at $0.00 for the first four months then eventually increased to $0.24. Students had to "...tell what they want to buy, and afterward show what they DID buy."

Day 25

I continued scanning bulletins today

Today I continued to work on the Paulus Negatives.  I finished scanning the second box I just have to edit them now.  

Chemawa Prints Project Day 10

Today I finished scans and edits for the fifth box. I will return to this box to title for CH 1324 - 1420. I continued to work on the Metadata as well. From now on, duplicates will be marked in 'Description' with *DUPLICATE OF CH 0000*.

I came across a lot of portraits today. They were mostly formal portraits of graduating students in caps and gowns, but they are also of other students and presumably faculty and employees. There were also many informal portraits of adults, who may also be faculty and employees.

CH 1247 and 1248 show a woman and a baby in a house. There are a few other prints which I think are in that same house. Were these people pictured friends of the photograph? Are they former students?

Tomorrow I will be working in Archives with the Charles Larsen Collection, but I will probably return to digitize in the afternoon.

1221 - 1420 / 3220

Day 24

Today I continued scanning bulletins up to 1940

Day 23

Today I scanned from 1926 to 1940, then helped the circulation desk close at the very end of the day

Chemawa Prints Project Day 9

The fourth box is finished, and I have just started on the fifth one (CH 1201 - 1420). Edits and titles are also completed through CH 1220. I started to find and replace many items in 'Paper dimensions' as well, but this will definitely take some time.

I came across two interesting prints that, like many I have found, do not appear to fit in with the Chemawa prints. CH 1091 shows two males, one adult and one child. They are both in Native dress. Behind them are trees. There appears to be a pile of wood in front of them. Are they camping? Why is there a photo of a Native adult male? Were these friends of the photographer? Are they actually Chemawa students? The second print, CH 1098, shows what appears to be an adult male standing in a campsite in the desert. Where is he (eastern Oregon?)? Is this a permanent residence? Does this print accompany the other seemingly misplaced prints of desert landscape? Was this taken on a field trip?

I believe I've found the oldest prints in the collection so far. CH 1207 is a portrait of two children: "Lulin Brewer" and "Ernest Brewer." CH 1208 is a portrait of a young woman, "Addie Irwin... daughter of Chemawa Supt 1889-1892." Many photos of buildings may also be significantly older than the others because of their faded, grainy quality: CH 1081, 1084, and 1101-1103.

Today there were also many group portraits and individual portraits. Some were of faculty (1120-1126), others of employees (1179), many of students (1177, 1151, 1181-1834-1188, 1199), and even some of sports teams (1150, 1167, 1146, 1171, 1172, 1185). The individual portraits were all of students in graduation cap and gowns (CH 1202-3, 1211-1220).

CH 1197 is labeled "Carpentry Class" on the back. Male students pose with a large sculpted eagle with am American flag coat of arms, backed by a fleur de lis. Why did the class make this sculpture? Was it made to celebrate a holiday? Were the students proud of this large, intricate sculpture? Were similar sculptures made that honored Native American symbolism? CH 1197 shows a male student presenting a drum with many awards on it. Was the making of this drum, along with other items like it (other drums, sled, canoe), encouraged? Was it as important of a symbol as the eagle? What purpose did it serve at Chemawa? Did the student play it at a powwow?

1081 - 1220 / 3220

Day 22

I finished scanning and cropping from 1923 to 1926

There are many duplicates and many editions each year but I think I'm finding them okay x)

Today I continued to scan the Paulus Negatives. 

Chemawa Prints Project Day 8

I continued to work on the fourth box today. I will be able to finish it tomorrow. At this point, I have completed 1/3 of the total photos in eight days, each day completing the scanning and editing of about 150 photos. I went back to straighten the crooked scans that Sara pointed out (CH 283, 285). If there is time at the end of scanning, I will go back through and check to see if more need straightening. I also began to edit 'Paper dimensions.'

Briefly looking over the five spreadsheets, I have realized that much of the Metadata is out of order and some appear to be missing. Perhaps this is just an issue of labeling. I will further evaluate when I get to those photos (starts at CH 1421).

CH 907 shows a parade float with Native American decorations. Did the students make this float? Why was it in the parade? What kind of relationship does this signify between Chemawa and the community of Salem? Where they an expected part of local celebrations? Were they welcomed?

CH 927 - 929 again show females doing industrial labor. The students sport similar fashions to the other photos that look like they come from a later time than the rest of the collection. CH 928 and 929 show the same female from similar previous prints. CH 980 shows gender crossover into domestic work. Male students iron what appear to be pants.

Today I came across many prints of commencement. They showed small graduating classes of about 200. CH 947 shows a large audience watching the ceremony; they may be other students. Did family members ever attend commencement? Were they welcomed or allowed? If they were, how often did they visit?

CH 979 shows an adult female instructing younger female students on "Date Data for Girls." What did this lesson include? How did female students at public high schools learn this information differently than students at Chemawa?

Professor Dobkins had said there were prints of Chemawa students from Alaska learning to fly. CH 995 - 997 show students flying a helicopter. Are these the photos she was talking about?

908 - 1080 / 3220

Today I continued to work on the Paulus Negative Slides.  I was able to finish with one box (Negatives C305-C378), and then moved on to work on another box (Negatives C131-C208).

Day 21

I scanned and edited from 1917 to 1923

Day 20

Today I completed up to 1917 and scanned up to 1919

Today I continued to work on the Paulus Negatives slides.  I almost got done with scanning the first box.  

Today I moved on to work on the Paulus Glass Negatives.  Should I save them on the same location as the D-series?

Day 19

Today I continued to edit bulletins from 1907 up to September 1912

I scanned ahead from 1911 to February 1917

Day 18

I scanned from 1905 to 1911 and edited 1903-1907

Chemawa Prints Project Day 7

The third box is finished, and I have begun on the fourth (CH 861-1200). The first Metadata page is finished for now. I will need to add consistent formatting in 'Paper dimensions (inches),' and we will have to figure out how to do consistent formatting for 'Key terms.' I finished adding the key "CH" to through CH 860. More prints do not have the key term, so I will start adding those next time starting on CH 881.

How should 'Paper dimensions (inches)' be officially formatted? Some have fractions, others have decimal points, and many use "". What should the formatting for 'Date and other written information'? This column is also very inconsistent. Only a few designate front and back.

I came across many compelling prints today and generated many questions. CH 737 shows female students seated around a table with checkbooks. A female instructor presents a board with different dollar amounts written in checkbook format. I have seen many similar prints related to domestic activities, even other financial skills like counting money. I wonder how much of these students' education was domestic and industrial and agricultural as opposed to typical academics taught in high school today. Did a majority of their education include learning technical skills? How much time was spent on reading, mathematics, history, etc? Because Chemawa Indian School today is more like a typical boarding high school, when did the transition occur between technical school and high school?

CH 761 is actually a postcard. Why has it been included with the other prints? Is the young person dressed in traditional regalia a Chemawa student? CH 762 shows men in uniform marching in the gymnasium. What was the purpose of their visit? Are these Chemawa students or former Chemawa students? Are they recruiting students? Was recruitment at boarding schools typical? CH 786, 786, and a few others show adults males presenting to a large crowd of male students. Most of the presenters look like they could be Native. Are they special visitors? Why are there only males addressing males? CH 842, a print of male students doing agricultural work, reminds me that there are many, many prints showing that the students worked on a lot of land with a variety of crops and livestock (apples, pigs, sheep, etc). Did the students produce food for the school? Did they sell the food? If they sold it, did the students receive any of the profit?

CH 794 - 798 are the first prints that I've come across that are in color. They are outdoor shots.

CH 850 - 853 are images of the 1975 Pendleton Round-Up. Why are these photos included with the others? Were the individuals that rode horseback in traditional regalia actually students? Have Chemawa students participated in the Round-Up in other ways? CH 859 shows young male students inside of a canoe on land. Like the sled, did the students make the canoe? Were they encouraged to build it? Were they able to use it on the water? CH 861 - 864 seem to be taken later than the others. Male and female students wear different clothing than the  other photos from the 1950s and 1960s. Perhaps these prints are from the late 1960s or 1970s.

My understanding of gender roles from these time periods (1950s and 1960s) continue to be questioned: the seemingly more recent photos show male female students in woodshop, and CH 881 - 884 show male and female students doing drafting.

735 - 907 / 3220

Day 17

Today I continued scanning Willamette catalogs and finally made it to the bulletins. I scanned up to 1905 and completed the cropping up to 1903

I can see why they made the switch to quarterly bulletins instead of one large catalog, since those were starting to break 150 pages and the course information in them had to be updated regularly.

I also scanned some side projects for Mary in the Willingham folder (there are a lot of building illustrations and photos in the catalogs now, so maybe those will become helpful for him too)

Will continue to scan things tomorrow

Chemawa Prints Project Day 6

Today I finished the second box of prints and started the third (CH 708 - 860). I scanned and edited through CH 739. Yesterday I noticed that many prints were not properly labeled, so today I added "CH" with pencil to the ID numbers through CH 736. The missing key continue through CH 860. 'Title' is finished through CH 720, and 'Date' through CH 860 (the end of the first Metadata sheet). 

I have realized that there are quite a few duplicates throughout the collection. How should I label these prints? Should I mark it with its 'CH 0000' and 'filename,' and write "DUPLICATE OF CH ####) in the description? Or should I repeat everything then just add the duplicate information in the description?

CH 653 was an interesting find. It shows people on horseback, some in traditional regalia and others in Western equestrian gear. They are moving in a line around an arena. Was this procession part of the annual pageant? Was this an annual event? Is there significance in that both Native Americans and white Americans were taking part in this procession together? What is the symbolism of this event? 

CH 662 - 665 show different people dressed in traditional regalia. Many in the photos are dancers. Another man takes a photo. There are drummers as well. Was this event also part of the pageant? Is it a powwow, and if so, who was invited to partake? Is this the same annual powwow that occurs at Chemawa today? 

621 - 739 / 3220

Today I was able to finish editing the Paulus slides.  I still have to finish up the spreadsheet but I am all done with the scanning and editing.  

Today I continued to edit the Paulus slides, I might be able to finish them tomorrow.  

Day 16

Today I cleaned a bunch of computers and then scanned catalogs from 1896-1900

Chemawa Prints Project Day 5

I continued with the second box of prints today, finishing the scans and edits through CH 620. I also continued to add to the 'Title' column through CH 600. The second CH 531 was actually CH 521. I fixed this labeling. 

I noticed that CH 561 - 707 (and possibly more) do not have "CH" written in front of their ID number on the back of the print. I could fix this once I finish digitizing this box (through 707). 

A few more pageant photos came up today. CH 490 showed a man in presumably Navajo traditional regalia, similar to the others. CH 491 shows a man dancing in traditional regalia with his arms spread out like a bird. He wears many feathers. What does this regalia signify?

CH 403 shows a large group of young white males and females. The inscription on the back says, "Portland school pupils visiting Chemawa." What was the purpose of their visit? How often did other schoolchildren visit Chemawa? Did Chemawa students visit other schools? 

In CH 482, a large crowd of young boys in gathered. It appears they are wearing striped pajamas. Most are smiling and appear to be celebrating. Two lift shovels while a few others are eating unidentified objects. It looks like they might be outside as well because it is very dark in the background. Why are they up so late? What are these students celebrating? Are they perhaps camping?

485 - 620 / 3220

Today I continued to work on the Paulus slides.  I was able to finish scanning the whole D-series, I just have to go back and edit some of them. 

Day 15

I finished OCR for all the Student Handbooks available, they are all in sub-folders titled "Processed"

This was a nice change from scanning catalogs, which are very long and not as fun to read

When I finished with that I scanned two more catalogs, the years 1895-1896 and 1896-1897 (both around 120 pages)

Excited to scan more tomorrow, as well as find out what cleaning day is like x)

-Devne't

Chemawa Prints Project Day 4

I finished the first box of photos (CH 0001 - 360) and made progress with the second (CH 361-707). I continued to add to the Metadata. No problems arose, but I have noticed that there is significant variation from photo to photo with the key terms and description. In some cases, the students are wrong (in which case I usually correct them). But the actual problem is that when viewers want to search by key term, all the photos will not all show up. Perhaps if there is time at the end we can work on this, along with the formatting of the key terms. 

Three photos that seem to cross gender roles of the time. CH 272 shows a male student smiling while he operates what appears to be a sewing machine. Other male students and adults look on and smile as well. Was this a usual task -- for males to use or learn to use a sewing machine -- or is it a joke, hinted at by their smiles? Another photo, CH 335, shows two females in front of a large cabinet of tools. One is hunched over, and it looks like she is searching for a specific tool. Did women typically use smaller tools like the ones in the picture but not the larger machinery like so many of the ones in the industrial training photos? The third photo, CH 339, shows two male students in a kitchen; one washes dishes while the other dries. At this time were there strict gendered domains, like the kitchen, or was there some crossover?

Looking at CH 341 made a question arise. Depicted are three students with a "Ballot Box." The student at the left drops a ballot in, the one in the center sits behind the box, and the third student at the right appears to be filling out a ballot. These children look to be too young to vote. Are they participating in student elections? If this is an election, was it at all framed within an understanding of the right to vote? Indian Citizenship Act of 1924? While the act was passed in 1924, all states did not grant Native Americans the right to vote until 1948. 

CH 272 ~ 280 depict a fashion show. It appears that very young female students modeled along with older students.The banner onstage in the back of many photos says "Fashions on Parade." They model flower print skirts, coats, and dresses. 

I found another photo of the pageant, CH 383. There are many people wearing bustles onstage facing each other. 

Another photo stood out to me: CH 445 and 446. A young man stands with a sled on snow. A male to his right has trained his camera on the young man. In another photo, he stand with the sled and two adults. Did the student make this intricately decorated sled? I assume that he is about to ride it because he stands on the snow and there are dogs in the background. 

337 - 484 /3220

Today I continued to work on the Paulus slides.  

Day 14

Today I finished editing the 1892 catalog, then scanned 1893 and 1894

After that I did OCR for Student Handbooks up to 1960 (which I'll try to finish tomorrow)

Chemawa Prints Project Day 3

CH 201-336 were digitized and cropped today.  I continued to add to the Metadata as well. At some point the CH 000 (ID) column was deleted, so I have been adding those back in. 'Titles' through CH 240, 'Date' through 201, and 'filename' through CH 172 are done. I contributed to the 'Subjects' column for the first time for the whole first Metadata sheet (CH 0001-0860). To resolve yesterday's question, I did add the inferred dates to the 'Date' column. I forgot to mark the "Descreening" box when scanning for ~CH 200 to ~260. This did not create any quality problems, but I did mark the button once I realized my mistake. 

Today I came across many more domestic scenes and more scenes with females. CH 235 stuck out to me because it shows female students in a gymnasium in line to throw a basketball. One student in the back has her hands up like she is on defense. There a few photos of social events including tea sets. CH 236 shows one female student is pouring a drink for a man in a suit. There were also many photos of parades that might have also been pep rallies. CH 205 shows two female students walking with a large sign that says the following: "HOMEMAKING TAKES HAWKS." Underneath the words is a woman in traditional regalia shooting a bow and arrow at something elevated, presumably a hawk, and behind her is a cabinet of some sort (stove?). 

Two other photos that stood out to me were CH 257 and CH 241. In the first, a male student is driving a go-cart while the crowd behind him is blurry,while in the second two boys smile while pointing to artwork on the wall behind them.It looks like the boys must be proud of their work. 

Professor Dobkins mentioned that these photos have been useful for her students in the past. While it was difficult for students to go to these Indian boarding schools, the photos are evidence that they also had fun. It has been my experience that the photos have made me appreciate their subjects as young people and not just as victims. CH 241 stuck out to me for this reason. Two young boys are presumably showing off their artwork for the camera and picture-taker. The young boys remind me of my younger self, showing off artwork that I have worked hard on. 

336/3220

Day 14

Today I continued scanning  catalogs, up to 1892

I also helped scan some side projects about buildings for Mary

Chemawa Prints Project Day 2

I completed the scanning of CH 063 -- CH 200. I fixed the labeling problem I found yesterday: I switched the second CH 040 to CH 041. I found that CH 118 was a duplicate of CH 045, and labeled this in the Metadata. I continue to fill in the Metadata alongside the photos but have prioritized the digitizing (scanned through CH 200, 'Title' through CH 180, 'Date' through CH 128, 'filename' through CH 128). I added the 'Subject' column, as well. To "Description' for CH 150, I added "W.F. WELLS. & SONS, INC THREE RIVERS, MICHIGAN."

A few of the photos were labeled in the Metadata with "Date inferred:..." I marked them with yellow in the first Metadata sheet. I do not know from which these dates came. Should I use these inferred dates for the Date column? 

Today I came across man photos of industrial work and a few of domestic work. There is evidence of strict gender rules because there are no photos of women doing industrial work (woodwork, operating machinery, metalwork) nor of men dong domestic work (sewing). There was one photo that could be an exception: CH 146 shows male students having a tea party. I also came across the first portrait (CH 086). It depicts a young man with clothing that says "CHEMAWA." Another interesting find was CH 112. It shows two men in uniform (police officers?): one writing something while bent down and the other standing up and looking down at him. They are next to a Volkswagen Bug with its door open. Handwritten across the top and bottom are the words, "HAVE YOUR ANNUAL SMALL APPLIANCE SAFETY CHECK." The date is May 1962. 

Three photos stood out to me in particular: one of students doing industrial work (CH 150), one of a male dancing in front of a Christmas tree  and model of Santa Clause, his sleigh, and reindeer (CH 187) (DEC 63), and a few others (~CH 194) of people (a few students?) getting off of a plane. CH 158 also stood out to me because it shows model tipis, carvings, and padles all modeled on a table. I would like to know more about the context of this photos and the objects in it. 

Today I continued to work on the Paulus slides.  

Today I continued to work on the Paulus glass slides.  I made the slides brighter to the best I could without changing the slide completely.  

Day 12

Today I continued scanning and cropping the catalogs, and I finished 1872-1888

They're very interesting to look at. especially the illustrations x)

Chemawa Prints Project Day 1

I started the digitization process today for the Chemawa Prints Project. Scanning of CH 001 - CH 068 were completed. I created three new columns in the Google Sheets document 0001-0860 Chemawa Metadata: filename, Date, and Title. I will continue to add to and edit the Metadata alongside the photos (I completed filename, Date, and Title through CH 060). I also reordered the Metadata by catalogue number. My pace picked up once I figured out how to scan four photos at once, completing 48 scans after lunch (three hours).

I came across photos of industrial work, cleaning, dances, receptions, performances in traditional regalia, hoop dancers, Santa Clause, a clown, carvings on a cliff face, grounds keeping, and much more. One photo shows a man performing a magic trick using a young boy in a guillotine. 

68 down, 3,152 to go.

Today I continued to scan the Paulus Slides.  I saved them on Archives-Scans.  While scanning them I realized that they all for the most part are dark.  Is that normal for these slides? Just wanted to check that before I continue to scan the rest of them.  

Day 11

Today I officially finished processing the commencement materials

I then started scanning/cropping the old catalogs (finished 1860-1872)

Today I scanned the Fowler Paintings, I also continued to work on the Paulus slides.  

Day 10

Today I finished OCR without verification for commencement materials from 2001-2012 

All the commencement materials are now scanned and ready to be processed, which I'm planning to finish tomorrow

After that I'll start on the big catalog\bulletin project

I also scanned and OCR-ed the 2002 Paulus thesis

It's location is: Computer > moh > Archives-Scans > Paulus_Otto > Paulus Negatives Thesis

Day 9

I finished scanning commencement materials from 2007 to 2011, since that's all that's available.

After that I did OCR for 1946 to 2000 (1860-1945 was already done from earlier in the week)

I'll be finishing 2001-2011 next week

Day 8

Today I scanned in commencement materials from 1986 to 2007

Hoping to finish those up tomorrow and start OCR

Today I continued to work on the Student Handbooks.  I also began to scan some of the slides from the Paulus collection.  

Day 7

I spent the whole day scanning more commencement materials, and made it from 1967 to 1985

Remaining is 1986-2014, so we'll see how far I get

Today I continued to work on the Student Handbooks. 

Today I continued to work on the Student Handbooks.  

Day 6

I finished OCR-ing the commencement programs, from 1922-1946

 Then I scanned the commencement materials from 1947-1966 (they're getting much longer and there are more preserved programs)

Today I continued to work on the Student Handbooks. 

Day 5

Today I finished scanning the Commencement materials for 1941 to 1946.

Then I started doing OCR with verification for 1860-1890 (because the fonts were not being nice to the program)

For 1891 to 1922 I did OCR without verification

Tomorrow I can finish 1922-1946

Day 4

Today I continued scanning old commencement programs. invitations, announcements, addresses, and church activity programs.

I picked back up at 1890 and finished 1940, which according to the spreadsheet is about 120 documents total, so I'm pretty proud.

I'm excited to finish these up on Monday (I have 1941 to 1946 remaining, then I assume OCR-ing them)

Exciting to keep working with 100+ year old documents

Day 3

Today I finished doing OCR with verification for the 1920's Alumni Register

The finished ones are in the Processed folder

I also started scanning the commencement programs, and got up to 1890 completed

Today I continued to work on the Student Handbooks, I also finished re-numbering the 1929 and 1965 Wallulahs. 

Day 2

Today I spent most of my time putting Student Handbook files organized by date through the ABBYY system, then placing them back in their dated files under "Processed"

While it was interesting in its own way, the handbooks did make me miss The Mill Stream publications from yesterday, which contained articles by students regarding social issues, music and movie reviews, and political discussions from 1977 and 1978.

I did enjoy how the student handbooks were set up. They contained warm welcome messages for freshman, basic rules of conduct, biographies and pictures of Deans and other administrators, and even a few different Willamette University songs.

I processed from the year 1892 to 1947.

Finally I did OCR with verification for the first 25 pages of the Alumni Directory

This is not finished, so the remaining pages (26- 90 something) are on a desktop file on the computer for me to complete tomorrow

The verification has actually done a really good job, and most of the mistakes so far are turning Ill. (like Illinois the state I assume) into 111, or Ia (Iowa maybe?) into la with a lowercase L

Very excited to start working on this again tomorrow!

Day 1

I scanned, cropped, and processed the folder of "The Mill Stream" publication from 1977

Very cool stuff

-Devne't

Today I continued to work on the Student Handbooks. 

Today I continued to work on the Student Handbooks.  

Today I scanned some pages from a couple Wallulahs that were missing (they are on the Wallulahs folder under "New Scans").  About 4 of them had missing pages, I then continued to work on the Student Handbooks.  I forgot to post on Monday that I finished re-numbering all of the Wallulahs.  

Today I continued to work on the Student Handbooks.  

Today I continued to work on editing the Student Handbooks. 

Today I was able to finish re-numbering the Wallulahs that have been uploaded online.  I will be here tomorrow, Wednesday and possibly Thursday as well.  

Today I was able to finish editing the Alumni Register.  It is in drobo under Alumni Register.  I then continued to work on the Wallulahs which I was able to get through 2000.

Today I scanned the Alumni Register with the Atiz Scanner. I didn't have any problems with it, it worked fine.  I haven't finished editing the register but I'll finish it on Friday.  I also worked on some Wallulahs, I got through 1994.

Today I continued to re-number the Wallulahs.  I got through 1991 today. 

Today I continued to work on re-numbering the Wallulahs, I got through 1983.

Today I continued to re-number the Wallulahs.  I was able to get through 1976.

Today I continued to re-number the Wallulah's page #'s.  I was able to get through 1968.

Today I continued to work on re-numbering the Wallulahs.  I was able to get through 1964 with the exception of 1956.  It seems like there is a Norma Paulus Scrapbook that is mixed in to this yearbook, and I wasn't sure if it had all of the yearbooks pages.

Today I continued to re-number the Wallulahs.  I was able to get through the year 1953.  

Today I continued to work on re-numbering the Wallulah's, which I was able to get through 1946.  

Today I continued to re-number the Wallulah's.  I was able to get through 1943.  

Today I continued to work on the Wallulahs.  I was able to get through the year 1935.  

Today I began to work on the Student Handbooks for a little, I then continued to renumber the Wallulah's which I was able to get through 1930.  I will continue to work on the Wallulahs on Monday after break.

Today I worked on the Student Handbooks for a little, I then began to renumber the Wallulahs.  I was able to get through 1923.  I will be here tomorrow to continue to work on them.  

Today I continued to look over the Student Handbooks and I also scanned some others.  

Today I continued to work on the student handbooks.  I am also checking that they all look good and I am re-naming them as well.  

Today I tried to work on renumbering the Wallulahs but I didn't have access again so I continued to work on the Student Handbooks.  

Today I worked on renumbering the Wallulahs.  I noticed that the 1905 yearbook pgs.3-6 are mixed up (Page 3 is acutally page 5 etc).  I'll continue to work on them on Monday. 

Today I finished with the re-scanned pages of the 1972 Wallulah.  All of the scans I did are saved on drobo under Wallulahs "Re-scanned".  I then continued to work on the Student Handbooks. 

Today I re-scanned some pages for the following Wallulahs: 1964, 1965 & 1972.  I completed 1964 and 1965, they are saved under the Wallulah file in drobo as "Re-scanned".  I will finish the 1972 on Wednesday.  

Today I was able to finish editing Wallulah 1989.  It is saved with the other Wallulah yearbooks. 

Today I continued to edit Wallulah 1989, I think I will be able to finish it next time.  

Today I began to scan Wallulah 1989.  I also began to edit it but didn't finish, I will continue on Monday.

Today I was able to finish the collegians that were missing online.  

Today I continued to look through the Collegians and found a couple that were either missing or had some pages missing.  I will scan these on Wednesday.  

Today I went through the collegians and made sure that they were online and that the scans look good.  I will continue next week to check if there are any of them missing.
