Recently, Vol.I No.1 of The Ƶ College Monthly, the first student publication, was acquired. You can read this historic document online. Details....

The first issue of Ƶ College Monthly, the first student publication, was published in June 1891. The college’s archived copy of this issue, along with many other pieces of Ƶ’s history, were lost in the fire of January 1923.

Connie Keller, Ƶ’s technical services librarian and archivist, was surfing the Internet recently and noticed this first issue of the Ƶ College Monthly was available for purchase on E-Bay. She placed a bid for the item, but soon learned that another person was also bidding for the same publication. Keller learned that the other bidder was Rev. J.C. Dollar, a 1972 Ƶ graduate, who wanted to buy the issue for the Ƶ library. They ended their bidding war, Rev. Dollar purchased the document and donated it to the Ƶ archives.
