Join us in celebrating the 50th anniversary of the naming of the Walter Havighurst Special Collections and University Archives by helping to support the next 50 years and beyond.
From rare books and manuscripts, to unique materials from Miami’s past, to the stewardship of the Oxford College and Western College for Women archives, the Walter Havighurst Special Collections and University Archives play a critical role in telling the story of Miami University and Oxford, Ohio.
To mark 50 years since its naming and the establishment of its endowment, the Walter Havighurst Special Collections and University Archives invite you to two public events:
- Tuesday, Sept. 26 at 4 p.m. in King 320 - Dr. Bill Pratt presents Two Scholars: Havighurst and Shriver
- Sunday, Oct. 22 at TBD in King 320 - A panel discussion moderated by Dr. Curt Ellison and featuring Miami and community researchers who’ve leveraged the Walter Havighurst Special Collections and University Archives in their scholarship.
Donations support the efforts of staff and librarians to further develop rare and unique collections, preserve Miami’s history, and make the past accessible to researchers at Miami and around the world.
