Site Description
The Hampshire College archives were established in 1980 by President Adele Simmons, who recognized the archives as the repository for historical records of the College, including confidential records requiring controlled access.
The Hampshire College archives chronicles the history of Hampshire College from 1970 to today, and is comprised of unique collections including materials by and about Hampshire College founders, faculty, staff, and alumni, programs, offices, publications, photographs, oral histories, and artifacts. These records are produced in the course of day-to-day operations and transferred to the archives when no longer in daily use by the originating office or group. This material forms a documentary record of the history and functioning of the College.
