Abstract

This collection contains images of Poly faculty, students, alumni, visiting lecturers, and other associated professionals spanning from 1866 to 2007

Biographical / Historical

The images in this collection were transferred to the archives from various departments over a number of years. Some of these departments included: Alumni Relations, Development, Student Activities, Public Relations, and the President's Office. The exact provenance of the loosely organized photographs was unknown.

During processing in 2014, most of the photographs were re-housed and additional information about the subject was added to the file when possible.

Arrangement

The collection is arranged alphabetically, by last name. A miscellaneous series of unidentified portraits follows the alphabetical series.

Scope and Contents

The Poly Archives Portrait Collection contains images of Poly faculty, students, alumni, visiting lecturers, and other associated professionals spanning from 1866 to 2007. Many of the early images in the collection are photocopies rather than original photographs.
