So you think you know a lot about UW-La Crosse history? Test your knowledge with this quiz.
These questions were part of the first ever UWL Murphy Library Special Collections Trivia Night on Feb. 15. UWL senior and history major Rebekah Bain and Laura Godden, Special Collections historian/associate academic librarian, wrote the questions, while UWL senior Alicia Carlson, a marketing major, took the lead on the marketing and planning the event. Nearly all of the photos are courtesy of Murphy Library Special Collections.
A lot of the information for the trivia questions was found in the 2013 book, “We’ve Hung the Lantern: A Visual History of the First 50 Years of UW-La Crosse” by Leslie F. Crocker. Crocker is the winner of the 2018 Murphy Award and will be honored at a reception on Thursday, April 19, in UWL Murphy Library Special Collections.
