My map project can be viewed here.
This map depicts early colleges’ history, specifically the location, established year, and religious affiliation of each college pre 1848. Each college is represented by a pointer on map as well as the text illustration by its side. Additionally, I have added another lay of map that showcases the railroad system in the U.S. in 1820s, in order to show the connectedness of each college with the rest of the country.
