Dates | 1988-04-08-1988-04-10 |
Abstract | Photographs of events held during Black Alumni Weekend. Scenes include presentations and attendees socializing with one another and walking together outside. Images show children, alumni, students, administrative staff, and faculty members and include close-ups of individuals as well as small groups in conversation. Included are photographs of Onawumi Jean Moss, who received an award during the weekend, Peter Pouncey, and alumnus Ulric Hayes Jr., who presented the keynote address. Interior portions of Charles Drew House and Merrill Dining Commons can be seen in the background. These photographs are assumed to have been taken by the College Photographer for the Office of Public Affairs (now the Office of Communications). Frank Ward was the College Photographer from 1984-2005. |
