 Collection Overview

The Wesleyan University Media Collection is arranged in series by media type. Material within each series is arranged in numerical order. Each series starts with Box 1 and item one, so that new material can easily be added without shifting boxes or changing box numbers. An earlier system, for example, did not always distinguish between a reel-to-reel audio tape and an audio cassette. Both would be given the next number and then housed in the same box. Housing material in different formats in the same container has been discontinued.

Eight series have been established. Series I: Tape Recordings consists of reel-to-reel audiotapes. The tapes carry the prefix TW followed by an item number. Items that are on audiocassettes are found in Series III. Series II: Video Recordings consists primarily of films on videocassette. These items carry the prefix VTW followed by an item number. The videocassettes are primarily in VHS format, although a few are Betamax and are noted in the listing. Series III: Audiocassettes consists of material on audiocassette and carry the prefix AC followed by a number. Since some cassettes had been accessioned as a TW number, cross references have been placed from TW to AC. Example: Wesleyan Spirits in Concert at Alpha Delta Phi (TW 86) see: Audio Cassette AC 5. Series IV: CD format. Series V: Oversize items, followed by a number. There are cross-references from the original series to the oversize location. Series VI: Unprocessed Material consists of music disks and reel-to-reel films in metal canisters. Some general description of this material is available in the collections file for this series. Series VII: DVD format. Series VIII: Record albums.

Some items are available in more than one format. When this occurs, a cross reference is made. For example, the Jeffrey Schiff videotape of the Library Project Symposium is also available as a DVD, so a cross reference is made from VTW 38 to CD/DVD 1. It should be noted that there is one tape (TW 32) that is labeled as confidential.

 1 DVD 2: History Detectives, Episode 504, 2007

The history detectives investigate a silver bar, with a strange mark, from the Atocha shipwreck; a man in Portland, Oregon who may own a typewriter that belonged to famous war correspondent Ernie Pyle; and a copy of August Spies’ autobiography originally owned by Lucy Parsons, one with the only known copy with her stamp on the front, currently housed in the Special Collections and Archives library of Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut. Parsons sold this book to raise money to defend her husband, Albert Parsons, who was in jail, accused of participating in the Haymarket Tragedy in Chicago in 1886. Albert Parsons and August Spies were both executed, although there was no evidence to support the accusations. The Haymarket is an important milestone in labor history and the history of radical political movements.

 1 DVD 3: Face Forward, February 2006

Film about African-American students at Wesleyan by Jane Charles-Voltaire (class of 2007) and Simone L. Collins (class of 2007).

Face Forward is a short photo essay that explores Black identity and community at Wesleyan.

It was designed to start a conversation about community and what it really means to be a Black community. Too often, the term community can be restrictive and at Wesleyan, there often is a sense of disjointedness within the Black community. The central issue was that while individuals identified themselves as being Black, that didn’t necessarily mean that they were the same. So, in many ways, the focus of this project was to show the many faces of Blackness and how we all fit together at Wesleyan.

Methodology:

To better understand our own Black community, specifically who we are and where we came from, we chose to interview and photograph approximately 50 Wesleyan students, each of whom identifies as Black. These students represented a multitude of backgrounds, nationalities, interests and majors. We sought to understand their Black identity as relative to others but perhaps also figure out how each of these unique identities could come together to form a new understanding of Blackness and ultimately, a community.

We also wanted to consider the fact that we are all part of a much larger Wesleyan community and visually reference the legacy we have been left with from previous generations of Black students. The historical photographs are of Wesleyan students in the 1960's and 1970’s.
