Case Western Reserve University Archives

We are recording history as it happens. The ongoing legacies of generations of CWRU families can be found within our collections from college applications, yearbooks, and newspaper articles, to never-published photos of campus student-life. CWRU history has shaped the thriving campus community we see today. The university’s archives are an important resource for historical information about the people, programs, places, and activities that make up Case Western Reserve University. However, many people don’t have the time to conduct their own research in the Archives. We have researched some historical topics of recurring interest and we hope the presentation of our results in this site will make it easier to explore the history of CWRU.
