I was totally clueless as of this posting about either undergrad or grad school, after learning a search indicates that I could get copies for all four years of undergrad if I really wanted (and presumably gotten a copy then too had I know or cared).
It looks like there was nothing in grad school (not that I would have cared then either, considering how isolated graduate school is from the general campus). That said, we can now say that the yearbook itself in the years it was published would probably be considered offensive in-and-of itself, what with the name “Swastika” up until at least 1969.
Michigan State has a yearbook except for a few years here and there when they didn’t. Fun trivia- from 1910-1975 the name of the MSU (or MSC in earlier days) yearbook was… The Wolverine.
I personally did not buy a copy and have no idea if I’m in it, I don’t know how they would have gotten photos in or have any room for them.
I have been in another category of college yearbook pics: as a faculty member.
Every once in a great while (less than once a year), a student photog would show up during a faculty meeting and we’d stand up and pose. Sometimes they would also take individual pics.
Never saw any yearbooks that I might have been in.
Some of the individual pics would turn up in odd places. One of my fellow profs ended up on a poster that was stuck all over campus. One was near the entrance to the library for years. Long after he left. Ditto, one of my individual pics was kept up near the department office long after I had gone.
Ghosts of professors past. That place had a ton of ghosts.
