| Event: | Discussion and Book Signing with R. Marc Kantrowitz and Marianne Larson, authors of the new pictorial history, Framingham State College Join us for a discussion and signing of this fascinating, new pictorial history of Framingham State College which, this year, celebrates its 150th anniversary as the first public institution for the education of teachers in the U.S. Drawing on photographs from the school’s archival collection, the authors chronicle Framingham State’s fascinating history, from its beginnings in Lexington, Massachusetts (with only three students), to larger quarters in West Newton and, in 1853, to its current location on Bare Hill in Framingham. See the buildings as they originally looked, learn how they were named and enjoy stories of the students, teachers and administrators who have lived, learned and worked at Framingham State College through the years. |
