From the archives of Worcester State University in Massachusetts. These images document campus, student life, and special events from the 1880s to the present.

Founded in 1874 as the State Normal School at Worcester, WSU began as a teacher's training college. Along with its sister institutions across Massachusetts, WSU expanded its curriculum and changed its names at various points in the 20th and 21st century, finally becoming Worcester State University in 2011.

Notable subjects in these albums include WSU's original campus on St. Anne's Hill (1874-1931), special events including annual pageants and Winter Fest celebrations, and various scenes from classrooms, athletic facilities, and the library from the 1890s to the 21st century.

Most images in the archives collection are unidentified. Captions or notes provide additional details when available.
