                  <text>Series XI: Photographs, 1970-1972, is arranged by call number. This series is organized into two 35mm photo boxes of slides taken by the National Coast Guard and Wilkes College Faculty member and photographer Jim Kozempchak and family. In the April 24th 2017 oral history interview, Dr. Michelini discusses the possible origins of these photographs and poses Kozempchak as a likely source, but in later email exchanges, Dr. Michelini believes the aerial shots were taken by the United States National Coast Guard. Many of the photographs documenting the campus prior to the flood were taken between 1970-1972 before the flood hit. The photographs that document the devastation and recovery efforts were taken in late June-July of 1972.  The film was developed in 1975. </text>
