2) What would college have been like in Depression America during WW2 (pre-American involvement, 1930-1941, anyway)? I know quite a few if not most of the schools weren't coed, which I can find on specific schools' Wikipedia pages, but I was wondering more like length of time spent and majors. Was it 4 year programs like today or were they shorter? Did you go to college to continue a general education in various fields or did you major in something specific? Would there have been gen ed requirements? (ETA: I've decided I'm thinking Yale.)
Thanks for any and all info provided! :)
