The Springfield Student (vol. 128, no. 17) Feb. 20, 2014
No full text“The Springfield Student” was first published in 1909 in the Association Seminar, an alumni publication. The portion published in the Association Seminar has been digitized and can be seen in The Springfield College Alumni Magazine Collection (http://cdm16122.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/search/collection/p16122coll3/searchterm/The%20Springfield%20Student/field/spring/mode/all/conn/and/order/date). Generally, “The Springfield Student” includes information about student organizations, athletics, alumni, and events. It also occasionally includes student poetry and fiction, as well as the conclusions of student-designed research. As the publication evolved, “The Springfield Student” began including editorials on world events and popular culture, as well as letters to the editor. Originally, the “Springfield Student” was published monthly from October through June, and its formatting resembled a magazine. In October 1913, the cover illustration simplified to only the title, the date, and the capital letter “S,” but the content and structure remained unchanged. On September 27, 1916, “The Springfield Student” was reformatted to resemble a newspaper: the pages decreased from around thirty to just four, it no longer included a cover, and it became a weekly publication. In the inaugural weekly issue, the editors explained the motivation behind the change: “To sustain the intimate and helpful relations that our Alumni and College should stress we feel that a weekly news publication is the best possible medium. [...] It is the purpose of the Staff to cover all College and Student Association activities in a very live way, reporting athletic contests in brief snappy articles, and giving members of the Alumni Associations space for contributions and newsy items.” During October 1917, in acknowledgement of the limited resources and significantly smaller student body caused by the United States’ involvement in World War I, the “The Springfield Student” ceased its weekly publication and instead published a few pages each month in the “The Association Seminar.” Two years later, October 1919, “The Springfield Student” resumed weekly publication. In this first issue, the editors wrote that they wanted to re-establish the newspaper “as the mouthpiece or spokesman of the student body.

Finding Aid: MS 514 Frank Wolcott Papers
No full textThe bulk of materials in this collection pertain to the Springfield College gymnastics team during the time when Frank Wolcott served as coach: these are predominantly photographs, newspaper clippings, competition scores, rosters, and schedules. There are also documents and letters (but no photographs) about the New England Gymnastics Clinic: these primarily address the administrative and organizational concerns.
The photographs show the winner’s podium from championships hosted by the Eastern Intercollegiate Gymnastic League (EIGL), National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) championships, and one from the Division for Girls' and Women's Sports (DGWS). They also show students competing, performing individually, traveling on exhibition tours, forming Tableaux, and performing in the college’s annual Home Show. Finally, there are also formal pictures of the teams, captains, and coaches.
This collection also contains documents Wolcott compiled about designing and performing Tableaux (living statues). Typically a group enacting a scene would be mounted on elaborate stands and stairwells decorated to look like a monument, placed on the route of the procession. In the context of Springfield College, Tableaux were performed by the gymnasts during exhibition performances, including the annual Home Show. These documents provide inspiration for creating Tableaux and describe how to stage the performances.
There is a small series of miscellaneous materials not related to gymnastics. This includes personal photographs and documents, teaching materials (mostly tests and answer keys), four paintings of the Springfield College campus, and a memorial book commemorating Bob Laveaga. This series also has a newspaper article about Stony Brook Acres, the summer camp he founded in Wilbraham, Massachusetts.For biographical information on Frank Wolcott, see: https://springfield.as.atlas-sys.com/agents/people/54
