Abstract

This series consists of copies of photographs that were taken for publication in the 1979 Northwestern University annual, the Syllabus (Volume 95). Although most of the photographs appeared in the Syllabus, a few unpublished photographs are included in the series. The series does not contain photographs from pages 1-48, color photographs, and most of the senior portraits.

Arrangement

The photographs are arranged sequentially into folders according to the page of the Syllabus on which they appeared or, in the case of those photographs that were not published, on which they were to have appeared. Each photograph is identified on the back by a Syllabus page number. The 1979 Syllabus should be consulted as a finding aid for specific photographs as well as an index to staff photographers.

Method of Acquisition

The University Archives received these photographs from the Syllabus office on Oct. 14, 1981. (Accession # 81-216).

Related Materials

The University Archives holds an incomplete set of the 1979 senior portraits as they appeared in the Syllabus: see series 75/31/5.

Separated Materials

Eight oversized photographs that appear on pages 374&375, 372&373, 310&311, 258&259, 244&245, 96&97, and 52&53 of the Syllabus have been removed to the Oversized Photograph collection (# OSP 646-652).
