Here at Cressman Library, we are proud to be the caretakers of Cedar Crest's Archive and are committed to the careful interpretation, contextualization, and preservation of our institutional memories. As we process our Archive, we are guided and informed by the work being done at other women's colleges across the country while we reflect on our own identity, what elements are essential to our history, and how we want this moment to be remembered in the future. Swipe through for a tour of the archives and to read our official mission statement, and subscribe to our Cressman Chronicle blog for more details!

Archives find! Check out this scrapbook created by Anne Roughley (class of 1940). Documents include newspaper clippings, a welcome letter from President Curtis outlining the Opening ceremonies (including two tests for incoming freshmen!) and a disciplinary letter that Roughley received for being too noisy, for which the punishment was losing "a 10 o'clock." Our long-term goal is to digitize these kinds of documents, but in the meantime, you can follow our blog, The Cressman Chronicle, for updates and more discoveries like this!
