The campus community is invited to view two new museum displays for the 80th anniversary of the Beacon and the University’s name change from Columbia University to University of Portland. The Beacon display includes staff photographs and a selection of pages and articles on the display board in the basement of Shipstad Hall across from the computer room. The display on the University’s 1935 change of name is located in the Pilot House lobby near the computer stations, and marks the 80th anniversary of the University’s change from Columbia University to the University of Portland.
The University museum is located in the basement of Shipstad Hall, room 014. Hours are Monday & Tuesday, 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.; Wednesday, 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.; and also by appointment. All are welcome to visit the Museum.
