CENTENNIAL
Antique Show
Bartender Award, 1978 This badge was given to a favorite server at the Rathskeller, the original campus bar.
We did some rummaging around in the “attic,” and look what we found: some of the University’s family heirlooms. Are they priceless antiques? To us, they are. They’re a tangible connection with our past, with each piece telling a fascinating story of who or what came before us. They’re stories without an ending, though, because we keep adding new chapters.
