Homer D. Babbidge, 1971<\/p><\/div>\n

You are invited to join the Libraries this summer for an archival film series showcasing UConn’s rich history. The series, in conjunction with the “What’s in a Name?” exhibition currently on display, is a selection of recently digitized historic film footage illustrating UConn’s past. The first film in the series is this Friday, June 20th<\/sup> with “Agriculture on Display,” a series of short films including 1936 sheep shearing competitions, wood chopping contests, and the Baby Beef Club Auction at The Big E.<\/p>\n

Other films in the series include:<\/p>\n

July 11\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Teaching the Land
\nJuly 18 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Diary of a Student Revolution
\nJuly 25\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Yankee Conference Championship game at UConn, 1970
\nAugust 1\u00a0\u00a0 Technology and the Farm<\/p>\n

All films will begin at noon in Conference Room 162 in the Dodd Research Center and are less than an hour long. Feel free to bring your lunch. (Maybe even some popcorn!)<\/p>\n

The exhibit “What’s in a Name?” on display in the Dodd Research Center gallery utilizes the UConn memorabilia collection to illustrate the ways in which the University has used logos, seals, names, and colors to create our identity and affinity for the institution since 1881.<\/p>\n
