Vassar’s 150th Anniversary Site: Recalling Vassar History, Telling Personal Stories
On January 18, 2011, Vassar will mark the 150th anniversary of the college’s New York State charter. As part of the year-long sesquicentennial celebration, Vassar has created a 150th anniversary website, where alumnae/i and other members of the Vassar community can enjoy hundreds of photographs and other rich content about the college’s history. Visitors also will find a list of upcoming sesquicentennial events on and off campus.
The 150th anniversary site has a wealth of interactive features. Visitors will be able to view evocative photos that tell the story of Vassar over the course of time. Its “Memories” section allows visitors to become part of the college’s living history by uploading their Vassar stories, photos and videos online. Content will continually evolve based on new submissions, so visitors will find new content each time they visit.
