Scope and Contents note
The collection spans from the beginning of the 20th century to the early 1990s. The first two boxes contain folders organized by year. The third box contains student portraits from the late 1970s and early 1980s. Although there are few photos from the earlier parts of the century, the collection gathers momentum in the 1950s, with the bulk of the collection spanning from the 1950s to the 1970s.
Most years contain photographs that document annual events, such as the Alumnae Banquet/Fifty Year Reunion, Commmencement, the Daisy Chain, Homecoming, and a host of other events and lectures. A great many of the photos form the 1980s record students in a variety of activities, including athletics. Some areas of special interest may be the Plantation home photos taken early in the century, the photos of the women marines' 10th anniversary in 1953, or the photos of the King Tut Coffee Party in 1977.
The student portraits, dated approximately from 1975 to 1983, were taken at Orientation and depict the students at the beginning of their first year at Newcomb.
Organization and Arrangement
The photographs are sorted and organized by date. Undated pictures have been placed in folders according to the approximate decade.
