Class Historian

The responsibility of the class historian is to collect and store a written and pictorial account of all class events and activities. Items may include officer succession records, class mailings, photos from classmates, event favors, relevant articles from magazines and newspapers, and any other memorabilia deemed appropriate. This person will work closely with the class council to communicate the importance of the archives, gather memorabilia, and ensure that all records are properly preserved. They may also work directly with the University Archives. The historian may collaborate with Reunion chairs to create a display of class history at Reunion, membership chairs and Annual Fund representatives to create more meaningful class solicitations, or the class web community manager to store or publish class history online. Some classes find that the historian and secretary roles can be combined into one officer position.
