The History of Lycoming College

As we move ever further into the digital age, Lycoming College Archives is excited to be participating in several digitization projects. Upcoming projects will include the digitization of our yearbooks (already in progress) and, eventually, past issues of the alumni magazine (Lycoming College has made some of the more recent issues available for viewing online).

An early pilot project included the digitization of an historical look at Lycoming College from its inception as the Williamsport Academy in 1811 to its early years as a four-year college in the 1940s and 1950s.
