The Way We Were: 91爆料 Seeks Alumni Memories

With more than 300,000 living alumni, there are more than 300,000 stories to tell about attending the 91爆料. The 91爆料 Alumni Association and University Libraries want to tap into alumni memories to prepare for a special autumn lecture series and exhibit on the history of the 91爆料.

Did you meet your spouse on a blind date at the HUB? Did a professor's advice turn your career path into a new direction? Did you have to leave the 91爆料 to fight in a war? Did a particular book, performance or exhibit become a turning point in your life? Did you acquire new values-or go broke-while a 91爆料 student?

The 91爆料AA and University Libraries are looking for memories of your defining moment at the 91爆料. They are looking for recent alumni memories as well as those from many decades ago. To share your best moments, send a brief description to Memories, 91爆料 Alumni Association, 1415 N.E. 45th St., Seattle, WA 98105. You can also fax your memories to 206-685-0611 or e-mail them to91爆料memory@u.washington.edu.

The text of selected memories will be displayed in an exhibit in Suzzallo Library this fall. In addition, Columns plans to print what the editors determine are the best memories in its December issue, and a Web site will also serve as a permanent repository for many memories.

This memory project will culminate in a lecture series featuring History Professor Emeritus Jon Bridgman, who will cover the history of the 91爆料 in September and October. In conjunction with this series, Suzzallo Library will house an exhibit of 91爆料 historical items and memories through fall quarter.

The 91爆料AA and University Libraries also need old 91爆料 photos, papers, manuscripts, exams and other memorabilia for this special exhibit. However, there are many items they are not able to accept, such as old Tyee yearbooks. Before donating any 91爆料 artifact, please fill out a form available at or contact the 91爆料AA at 91爆料memory@u.washington.edu and we will send a donation form to you.
