[Identification of item], [box #, folder #], Stanley Wyatt Photographs, 1970-1972, SC 0052, Special Collections, Carrier Library, James Madison University, Harrisonburg, VA.
Stanley Wyatt donated this collection to the James Madison University Alumni Association in April 2012. The materials were subsequently transferred to Special Collections.
The backs of the photographs are tacky as a result of adhesive remains. In an effort to limit their damage to each other, each photograph has been placed in a paper envelope. The inscription on the back of each photograph was transcribed onto the envelope.
Stanley Daniel Wyatt of Charleston, West Virginia matriculated to Madison College in the fall of 1970. He was a member of the graduating class of 1974 and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science and Geology. While at Madison, Wyatt was a member of the Geological Association and China Watchers. He was also selected by the SGA to serve as a delegate to the Second Annual Conference to the National Student Lobby.
