Abstract

The Hershel (Hersh) Siebrass collection consists of an oral history with Siebrass and Lois A. Jahnke, an interpretive essay by Jahnke about the historical significance of the Siebrass interview, a photograph of Siebrass and a newspaper opinion piece written by Siebrass. During the interview between Siebrass and Jahnke, Siebrass discussed the changes that have occurred at Mankato West High School in Mankato, Minnesota since he was hired to teach biology in 1961. He focused on the changing roles and relationships among principals, teachers, educational organizations, counselors, students, parents, and the surrounding community.
