Today's Out of the Box looks at the personal files of Dr. DeJarnette, most famous (or infamous) for his involvement in the eugenics movement, which included support for sterilization of those suffering from mental illness. These records provide a more personal view of a man whose actions are viewed today as abhorrent.
