Lois Borland Collection: Series 9
Collection 1, Series 9 1 records storage box, 1 flat box (2 lin. ft.) Finding Aid Prepared By Jennifer A. Vazquez July 2006
Lois Borland (1877-1967) came to the Colorado State Normal School, Gunnison, Colorado in 1914 as the school’s first English professor. She retired in 1942 from Western State College of Colorado after a long career that included many interests. In addition to literature, she developed an interest in local history and was probably the first person in the area to appreciate the value of saving and preserving historical documents. She also was involved in dramatic productions at the college.
This series consists of 6 scrapbooks.
Two scrapbooks (1929-1961) contain newspaper clippings about local individuals and events. A list of the individuals and events discussed in the clippings are listed below.
Three scrapbooks cover events at the Colorado State Normal School (1912-1918) and include clippings from the Colorado State Normal School Newsletter, handwritten notes, class schedules, correspondence, and pamphlets. One scrapbook is identified as “Sigma Chapter of Delta Sigma Epsilon, 1929-1930. It includes photographs, newspaper clippings, and memorabilia.
