+.Why was Galt so certain that having unrestricted social interacted would not have a negative effect on how the community treated the mentally ill? Would the stigma around mental health at the time allow for communities in America to be able to accept the responsibility to treat the mentally ill in their towns and homes? Did having other asylums like Kirkbride’s complicate this because they offered the community a way to treat the insane away from their homes and families?
+. Gonaver mentions that the availability of slaves for hire was entirely dependent on the willingness of masters to employ them. What do you think would be some of the reasons as to why a slave owner would be willing to send one of their enslaved to work in an insane asylum?
+Submitted by Jack Kurz
+. The status and treatment of white veterans and others are shown in the asylum records. However, was there any African Americans also being treated at the asylum at the same time as this in flux of patients occurred? And if so what was their level of treatment and care?
+. Could have some of the patients that were readmitted to the asylum following the Civil War have suffered relapses not brought on by the Civil War in any way? And was there any major cases related to this in asylum records?
+Submitted by Parker Siebenschuh
+. What would be the reason why "calm" patients like Martha Lewis and Randolph Shelton were institutionalized by their families?
+. Why are historians reluctant to analyze southern institutions? Is it because they think they're not important or is there not enough documentation from the institutions?

+) On page 60, Gonaver mentions the work that the patients did while they were inside the asylum. Do you think this was beneficial for the patients? Was it safe? (this was pre any workplace safety laws; would these even apply?)
+) Gonaver mentions that domestic violence played a role in the population that ended up being patients at the asylum. Why do you think this happened? Did this persist into the future of psychiatry?
