About the Rhodes College Archives

The mission of the Rhodes College Archives is to preserve and make accessible the records of Rhodes College as well as the creative and scholarly output of its students and faculty. The Rhodes Archives is an important part of the heart of the College, providing access to institutional heritage. The archives - not a dark, dusty room tucked away in a basement - are an important part of the pedagogy and legacy of Rhodes College.

This site contains online exhibits that have been curated from the collections of the Rhodes College Archives and Special Collections. Materials in these exhibits have been digitized from paper documents, still images and audiovisual materials found in much larger collections.

There is plenty more to see and hear in the collections at the Archives so feel free to contact us at archives@rhodes.edu if you would like to know more!
