The Quarantine Diaries Presented by Muskie Press

Muskie Press Publishes “The Quarantine Diaries: A Muskie View on COVID-19”

Excerpt from the introduction in “The Quarantine Diaries: A Muskie View on COVID-19”

Muskingum University's Muskie Press – the unique internship program offered by the English Department - recently published an amazing retrospective titled "The Quarantine Diaries, The Muskie View on COVID-19."
