UWM to Launch Redesigned Web Site by Wendy Luljak, Information & Media Technologies Masthead-13.EPS Faculty/Staff Newsletter Volume 27, Number 8 November 2006 UWM TO LAUNCH REDESIGNED WEB SITE By Wendy Luljak, Information & Media Technologies UWM YEARBOOKS NOW ONLINE The digital collection of the UWM yearbook, The Ivy, is now online at www. uwm.edu/Libraries/digilib/yearbooks/ index.html. The yearbook was named for the ivy- clad campus buildings, which symbolized a tradition of knowledge and learning. It was published from 1942 to 1968. No volumes appeared in 1960 or 1961. The 25 volumes in the digital collection contain 5,266 pages. The annual docu- ments the history of both the Milwaukee State Teachers College – later renamed the Wisconsin State College, Milwaukee – and the formative years of UWM. The yearbooks constitute a pictorial history of the UWM campus, its adminis- trators and faculty. It is an especially rich source for understanding student life and activities, including academics, honor soci- eties, professional groups, sororities and fraternities, and athletics.
