Alumnus Magazine

The once active photo morgue of the Alumnus Magazine, the Alumnus Magazine Photograph Collection captures diverse aspects of campus life during the 1970s and 1980s, including portraits of campus officials, sports events, commencements, a visit to campus by Julius Erving, and assorted campus buildings and scenery.

The Alumnus Magazine Photograph Collection contains photo prints and contact sheets
used in the Aulmnus Magazine during the 1970s and 1980s and served as the
publication’s active photo morgue during that time. The photos capture a wide range
of campus activities, events, locations, and personalities and remain organized how
they were originally used, by subject. All labels reflect the original wording used
by the staff of the Alumnus. There is likely some overlap between the photos printed
and stored by the Alumnus Magazine and those taken by the Photo Center, which are
represented in RG110-175, though many photos are also unique to this collection.
