Celebrating the 135th anniversary of Pembroke College: Speaking 61 years after graduating, Mary Jane Mikuriya '56 shares an account of her experience as an American student and woman of Japanese and Austro-Hungarian descent during the second World War and after. Listen at the link in bio.

“My father couldn't get a job because
he was an alien. My mother was naturalized twice, why wasn't he naturalized
once? Well, he couldn't be. The Oriental Exclusion Act of 1924 said no ‘Oriental’ could become a citizen. So my mother, when she married him, she lost her citizenship.” -- Mary Jane Mikuriya '56. Quotation is below a black and white photograph of Mikuriya.

Celebrating the 135th anniversary of Pembroke College: Bella Skolnik, class of 1933, was a student during the stock market crash and Great Depression. She reflects on these experiences in her interview with the Pembroke Center Archives' Oral History Project. sites.brown.edu/pembrokeoral...

“I was married between my last exam, and the time that I got my diploma. We were married secretly, because we knew that after graduation, our parents could not afford a wedding. Many students did that....We didn’t live together for a year until he got a job. There were no jobs, dear. This was a depression.” -- Bella Skolnik '33.
