The Tobey Time Capsule

 

 

 

Tobey Hall is undergoing a major renovation this year, and workers who were removing the cornerstone from 1958 discovered the Tobey Time Capsule.  We’re hoping that our Golden Alumni from the classes of 1958 and earlier can share their memories and fill in some details about the recently unearthed “treasure” of our College’s history.   

For example, do you remember…

  • The Panda Prints Valentine’s Card?

  • The Bell Freshman Handbook?

  • The many familiar names in the 1958-59 Staff Directory?

  • The ceramic charm of Associate Dean of Students Margaret Baughman?

  • The brochures with beautiful photos of the College from your era?

During Reunion Weekend 2009, take a look at the Tobey Time Capsule and share your memories of it with College Archivist Heather Heyduk at the Celebrate the Past, Present, and Future Exhibit on Saturday, June 6, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Hunt Union International Lounge.  With our current students, we’re planning to add new materials to the time capsule and put it back in its rightful place in Tobey Hall for future generations of Oneonta alumni to enjoy.  Come to Oneonta for Reunion Weekend 2009, share your memories of your alma mater, and help us connect the past, present, and future of SUNY Oneonta through the Tobey Time Capsule!
