Pacific University Index newspaper staff

Title

Pacific University Index newspaper staff

Description

Students and faculty staff in the office of "The Index," the Pacific University student newspaper, circa 1950. The African American student near the center of the photograph is William Arthur Hilliard, one of the university's first black graduates. He went on to become an editor at The Oregonian. The photograph has been partially whited out, probably in order to create a print derivative. The back of the photograph identifies this image as being the "Heart of Oak" staff, which was the Pacific University Yearbook; however this appears to actually be the staff of the student newspaper.
