The 11th annual “Pride of Our Nation… Pride of Our College” exhibition, an ever-changing collection of photographs and memorabilia of veterans and active military service members with a connection to the college, remains on view in the Marvin Library.
Begun with just a handful of photographs, the exhibit now includes more than 100 images and keepsakes, both official “military issue” and personal. Current students and employees submit photos and loan objects — ranging from dog tags and medals to historic documents and full uniforms — that pertain to the military career of a relative or themselves.
Alice Malavasic, a professor in the Education and Social Sciences Department, organized the first exhibit in 2010. She describes the annual event as a collaborative effort by the entire campus — students, faculty and staff.
Exhibition hours through Friday, Dec. 16
The exhibition is on view in the Troy Savings Bank Charitable Foundation Atrium on the first floor of the Marvin Library through Friday, Dec. 16. Regular hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday and closed Sunday.
