Pitzer College Archives

The Pitzer College Archives is the institutional memory of Pitzer College and shares its mission with that of the College: to facilitate the search for and acquisition of knowledge. In this regard, the Archives supports teaching, learning and research at the College and in the wider intellectual community by providing access to collections, documents, publications and artifacts that help to illuminate the inspirational people and turbulent times of the College’s founding while charting its progress and evolution to the present day.

To fulfill these responsibilities, the Archives identifies, acquires, preserves, maintains and makes accessible records and materials of enduring historical value. By preserving evidence that reflects and chronicles the development of the College, as well as the life and activities of the people who influence its culture and development, the Archives ensures that this information will be available for generations to come.
