Yearbooks
We have a handful of early yearbooks know as Landmark: from 1962-1966; Graduate Record
from 1977-1981 showing students who graduated those years; and Reflections, the
School of Optometry yearbook from 1987-1988.
Course Schedules, Bulletins & Catalogs
Popular with returning students who took a course way back when and need to verify its contents;
also with students transferring to other schools and needing to show they have taken relevant
course work.
Publications
Faculty, staff and campus related publications such as departmental newsletters; the Chancellor's
Report to the Community, various Alumni Newsletters, and Friday's Update, to name a few.
We also have student publications such as Lit Mag, and Watermark, and Student Organization
Newsletters.
Faculty Papers
The files of faculty members have special research value related to the faculty member's field of interest,
such as Professor George Rawick's research files on slave narratives and socialism.

faculty and staff; and student activities.
