Revisiting Hamden
by Shayla Colon

| Last April, Quinnipiac University junior Shayla Colon and fellow student Joe Torgerson visited the Al Gorman History Room at Miller Library to conduct research for Ms. Colon's project, "Revisiting Hamden."
From vintage photos and interviews with longtime Hamdenites who shared their memories of growing up during a somewhat simpler time, Ms. Colon has painted a portrait of a town that has evolved from the tiny agrarian community of colonial times to a vibrant municipality of more than 60,000 individuals, perhaps on the verge of "cityhood."
