Christy Mach's Thesis

Christy Mach, a 1992 H-B alum, wrote a senior thesis titled A Study of H-B Woodlawn: An Alternative Program in April 1996. Her thesis was submitted to History Department of the University of Pennsylvania to support her candidacy for the degree of Bachelor of Arts with Honors in American History. We are very grateful for her work at collecting and sharing our history.
