From the Archives & Special Collections: I Can’t Give Up the Puns Cold Turkey!

archives_Tday11-2017It’s that time of year again Loggers! Thanksgiving break, with finals on the swift approach! But right about now many of you are stuffed like a turkey from this year’s festivities, sick of being roasted by family or your relentless thesis. However, it is the holidays, so try to keep the fowl language to a minimum when trying to balance finals with family and friends. With tight budgets and tricky traditions, gift giving may be the last thing on your mind, but that’s why I’m here! Coming to you straight from the Archives & Special Collections, your personal Dairy Godmother has the perfect holiday gift suggestion.

Milk!

College of Puget Sound students held a milk drive in the fall semester of 1947 in order to raise money for the European war relief…and what better holiday gift than milk by the truckload? It’s practical, it’s useful, and when canned, it won’t spoil. It’ll leave you so refreshed you’ll be asking for an udder one!

So raise your gobble-lets of milk for one last roast. We’re almost there!

The Archives & Special Collections is open on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 12:00-3:00 p.m. or by appointment.
