IN CASE YOU MISSED IT — HSP 137H: Race in Media exhibit, available until Fall!

Albion College has a history of controversial and sensitive stories that are difficult to talk about. Our projects shine a light on these stories using the Pleiad.

If you didn’t catch the Honors Symposium HSP 137H: Race in Media final presentations last week, you can still find our semester-long projects and read up on these important glimpses into Albion College’s history in two ways:

  • Read our Digital Archive Projects online here (scroll to the bottom of the page), or
  • Visit the Library Archives (top floor of Mudd) and check out our exhibit in the glass cases, any time the Library is open through the early Fall Semester!
