~ About: A 1961-65 Park College Diary ~ As a high school girl and then a college coed in the first half of the 1960s, I wrote nightly entries on the pages of one-year diaries. In January 2010 I began transcribing the entries into a blog and gave each one a title. I grew up on three farms within 30 miles of Iowa City and the University of Iowa with its Iowa Writers' Workshop. As the oldest of four daughters, in my diaries I sometimes referred to my sisters as "the kids" or "the girls." We helped our parents, but we also had good, wholesome fun - a characteristic I took with me to Park. Park is 300 miles southwest of West Chester, Iowa, in Parkville, Missouri, on the Missouri River 10 miles northwest of Kansas City, Missouri, and across the river from Kansas City, Kansas. In 2000 Park College became Park University. Today Park's flagship campus is in Parkville and there are an additional 41 campus centers across the nation. Park was one of the first educational institutions in the United States to offer online learning. My last post was on May 22, 2018. I may be followed on Twitter @BarbaraMcDWhitt.

Saw "Judgement at Nuremberg" - Saturday, March 23, 1963

Well, I've done it again. Another beautiful Saturday and I didn't get anything done. Now that I'm over another (the last long) crush, I think I have a crush on myself or something. I really must begin to open up more around people of the opposite sex. Like praying, it's something I "put off" far too often. I shouldn't analogize the two. Barb Page and I watched the tennis match with KCU for an hour this afternoon and I went with her and Margaret to "Judgement at Nuremberg" tonight. It was different and good. Margie is on the OAC hayride tonight.
