Tell Us Your Story

Since the Civil War, Alfred University has collected material that documents its military-related history. The collection, housed in the University Archives, includes material such as letters, diaries, scrapbooks, photographs and memorabilia. We are dedicated to preserving and continuing to build our historical roots to the military, and for this we need your help.

This page allows you to add your story to our collection. It doesn’t matter if it chronicles your service in ROTC while on campus or your enlistment experience after graduation. What matters is capturing your place in our history and your connection to the military and Alfred University.

Please tell us as much or as little as you wish by filling in the form below and uploading pertinent files (documents, photos, etc.). If you would like to donate physical memorabilia, please describe what you have in the “Notes” section and we will be in touch to make arrangements.

Thank you for your willingness to help to build our military history collection!

Laurie Lounsberry Meehan ’91, University Archivist & Librarian
