1918 Columbia University Summer Session Certificate & Original Mailing Cover — Shamokin, PA

An original 1918 Columbia University (New York) Summer Session grade certificate issued to Helen Bemus Young, documenting her enrollment July 8 to August 16, 1918, with courses and grades in French and English (including Elementary Journalism and Public Speaking). Bears the embossed Office of the Registrar seal and Registrar’s signature.

Comes with its original mailing envelope, Columbia University corner card, postmarked New York, August 30, 1918, addressed to Miss Helen B. Young in Shamokin, Pennsylvania.

A wonderful piece of early 20th-century women’s higher education history with a specific Pennsylvania coal-region connection — great for genealogists researching the Young family of Shamokin, or collectors of college/university ephemera.

Condition: Envelope shows edge wear and tearing at the flap from original opening; certificate is intact, legible, with light fold creasing. Please review all photos.
