George Peabody College Photograph Collection

Series VII: Campus Events

This series covers events held on campus and under the auspices of the college. The largest theme in this section are the images of college graduations on campus, 1915-1979 with many photographs of unidentified graduates posing in groups and during the ceremonies. Another interesting topic covered in here are photographs of the "All-State Picnic and Stunt Night." This event was held every summer along with reunions of alumni on campus and consisted of a picnic and skits performed by alumni who were grouped by their home state. Other events recorded here are conferences, concerts, art exhibits, and student orientations. The photographs are arranged chronologically within each topic, sleeved in Mylar with ten enclosures per folder. The ( ) behind a folder listing denotes the number of folders within that topic.
