In celebration of the holiday season, the University Archives invites you to the sixth floor of Malpass Library for a special audio Christmas greeting, featuring Burl Ives and including items from the Archives' extensive Burl Ives Collection. Ives, who was a noted folksinger and Academy Award-winning actor, is perhaps best known for his recordings of several iconic Christmas songs and for his role as Sam the Snowman in the 1964 animated film "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.”

The Archives is open from 8:00-4:30 Monday – Friday. For more information about the display or the collection contact the Archives at 298-2717.
