Collection Overview
Collection Description & Creator Information
- Description:
The collection consists of class yearbooks that are published to mark class reunions and to provide updates on the lives of alumni. Many classes have more than one book to commemorate reunions, such as the 10th, 25th, etc. Though each reunion book is unique, they generally contain entries for each class member that list current contact information, occupation, marital status, and usually a short biographical entry detailing activities since graduation. The books sometimes contain additional information, such as a necrology listing deceased class members, a foreword written by the class president, photographs or statistics. The earliest class represented in the collection is the Class of 1847 with book of brief biographies of the class in 1907, while the oldest volume is the Class of 1863's "Records of the Class" printed in 1867.
