Honoring Texas Governor Oran M. Roberts, Sam Houston Normal Institute published the first edition of their yearbook, the Alcalde, in 1910. The annual commemorated students, social activities, sporting events, and more that together captured the spirit of Sam Houston State. With only a few interruptions during the Depression and World War II, the yearbook soldiered on for close to 90 years serving as a record of each school year before succumbing to disinterest in 1998. It was revived in 2003.

In the Alcalde
We've utilized copies of the Alcalde, the SHSU yearbook, in our effort to document the growth of the campus. Of course, yearbooks not only document the changes in the campus but changes in the student body, too, and photographers over the years have captured a handful of serious, funny, and outright odd moments on film. We've collected a few of the best. |
