Season 2 Episode 4 -- Destruction and Rebirth: The Cyclone of 1882
What happened on the night of June 17, 1882, in Grinnell, Iowa? “The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind.” In this episode, we head to the archives in Burling Library to take a look at the legacy of the 1882 cyclone that ripped through Grinnell, killing 39 people, destroying homes and the entire College. We talk with Allison Haack, library assistant in Special Collections and Archives, who curated an exhibit in Burling Library with photos and news clippings related to the cyclone. Although there are few reminders of the cyclone around Grinnell now, the cyclone proved to be a turning point in the College’s history. We also talk with Chris Jones, archivist of the College, about what he’s learned from studying the minutiae of College history.
