Centennial exhibition of Fresno State's history through photos
The Henry Madden Library is currently hosting an exhibition of photographs documenting the 100-year history of California State University, Fresno.
The exhibition runs through Sept. 27 at the Leon S. Peters Ellipse Gallery on the second floor of the library’s Table Mountain Rancheria Tower.
A detailed timeline highlights Fresno State’s evolution through the decades from a state normal school training teachers for the region to a 21st-century university offering training in scores of fields through eight academic colleges and schools.
Showcased are some of the best and most-treasured historic photos from the University Archives, as well as memorabilia that highlights Fresno State's enduring strong connection with the community.
