Clark Atlanta University was established in 1988 as a result of the consolidation of two independent historically black institutions - Atlanta University (1865) and Clark College (1869). The bulk of this collection contains photographs of Clark College before its consolidation with Atlanta University. The photographs show student life including classes, athletics, clubs, sororities and fraternities, and graduation. Also included in this collection are notable people such as Vivian Henderson, Carl Ware, Vernon Jordan, C. Eric Lincoln, Thomas Cole, Jesse Jackson, Andrew Young, and James P. Brawley. At the AUC Robert W. Woodruff Library we are always striving to improve our digital collections. We welcome additional information about people, places, or events depicted in any of the works in this collection. To submit information, please contact us at DSD@auctr.edu.
