Quiver Yearbooks 1897-1974
From 1897-1974, The Quiver yearbook recorded the people, activities and achievements of the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh and its predecessor institutions (Oshkosh Normal School, Oshkosh State Teachers College, Oshkosh State College and WSU Oshkosh). The pages of the school’s annual document the evolution of a campus growing from a teachers training institution of 700 students into a comprehensive university of over 10,000 and a member of one of the country’s greatest public university systems. UW Oshkosh Libraries present the 1897-1974 run of The Quiver yearbooks in its entirety and mostly free of omission, as the volumes appeared in the years they were produced. In some issues, The Quiver included images and content that are offensive and that UW Oshkosh Libraries does not condone. UW Oshkosh Libraries provide access to this material as a historical resource for study and understanding. In only three exceptions were images blurred to obscure images of human remains and possible funerary objects in archaeological contexts to comply with the spirit of the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act.
