From the Archives & Special Collections: Spring Family Weekend in the A&SC

We’re so excited to welcome parents and alumni to campus this weekend for the 2019 Spring Family Weekend! To celebrate, we’ll be hosting an open house and installing our new exhibit.

The open house will be this Friday, April 12, from 3:00 to 4:00 PM. Join us in the Archives & Special Collections Reading Room on the second floor of the library to view documents and artifacts from Puget Sound’s past. Drop by this casual event to learn more about the history of our Lu’au, student life on campus over the years, and the physical buildings and grounds of Puget Sound.

In honor of the Class of 1969’s 50^th Reunion this year, we will be installing an exhibit focusing on their time at Puget Sound. The exhibit will draw primarily from The Trail, Tamanawas, and the Ephemera Collection, and provide a glance into what campus life was like at that time, from student organizations to special events to figures on campus. Come take a look to learn about the past and discover its connections to the present!

The Archives & Special Collections is open Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM or by appointment.
