In the Carolina Upstate, thousands of men and women have shared a common experience through Winthrop University's traditions, classrooms, and campus. Although a picture may be worth a thousand words, it is a voice relating personal experiences that truly provides a clear vision of the past. In Winthrop University: Memories and Traditions 1886-1945, these voices take center stage, recounting stories that illuminate and celebrate the university's diverse history, from its founding in 1886 to the mid-twentieth century. Throughout this volume, readers will trace the evolving Winthrop experience across a very different landscape than today, a time of different customs and etiquette based on a more rigid formality. However, within this world, the young female students at Winthrop still found many opportunities for fellowship and fun, whether it be a midnight \"turkey trot\" on the eve of the twentieth century or the annual May Day festivities. These narratives, combined with over 100 black-and-white images, transport readers across the changing decades and highlight some of the school's most historic moments, such as the its relocation from Columbia to Rock Hill.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ron Chepesuik\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0738506230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738506234\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.44w x 0.36d","brand":"Ron Chepesuik","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46110642012415,"sku":"9780738506234","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bd4827d4-3393-4a72-9c7f-042207499041.jpg?v=1725469361","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/winthrop-university-ron-chepesuik-9780738506234","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
