In this premiere episode, Paul Fleming sits down with Cornell associate professor of history, Jon Parmenter, to learn more about his new research. Jon’s blog post, "Flipped Scrip, Flipping the Script, the Morrill Act of 1862, Cornell University and the Legacy of 19th Century Indigenous Dispossession,” adds to the emerging conversations on America’s land-grant universities to tell the early story of Cornell University.
