About this title

Synopsis

This third edition brings the story up to date with photographs from the 1980s, a decade that produced the Davis Library, the 'Dean Dome, ' Michael Jordan, and a 1988 campus educational forum featuring the seven Democratic presidential candidates. Several recently discovered photographs from previous eras have also been added, including the earliest-known picture of the student body and a photograph of the University's first female professor, who was appointed in 1927. In loving detail, this book captures the character and charm of the University over the years-its campus, administrators, faculty, classes, athletic programs, and student life.
