From The Archives: 1888 Graduating Class
This is a copy of a photo of Defiance College’s first graduating class
in 1888. Mrs. Moll, the lady second from right in the back row,
loaned the original to the college to be published in the August 1955
issue of the Alumni News. You can learn more about Defiance College’s
early history on Thursday, October 27 at 7:30 in Schomburg Auditorium,
where Professor Don Buerk and Archivist Barb Sedlock will speak on
“The Building of a College,” as part of the city’s Town and Gown
lecture series.
