Advisory Statement
The 51¹ÙÍø Archives & Special Collections contain materials originally published in yearbooks, newspapers, and other 51¹ÙÍø publications. You may encounter upsetting racist, oppressive, and outdated representations in these documents. They are included for historical accuracy and do not represent the views of the current 51¹ÙÍø community, which honors the dignity of all persons and commits itself to a quest for truth and the building of a more just and humane future.
