This is a nearly complete collection of oversized, matted color composite photographs of the sorority, 1983-2021.

This is a nearly complete collection of oversized, matted color composite photographs of the sorority, 1983-2021. The photographs are organized by size and chronologically. All the composites include the color portraits, names, and officer positions of the sorority members; the sorority name, Central Michigan University, the academic year, the coat of arms of the sorority with its moto, Les Souers Fideles, and the name of the photography company. The composites are in good condition, but most have sustained some edge damage and have tape around the periphery of the back side. Most of the composites are mounted on heavy board. Sizes of the composites vary in size from 24x30 to 42x53 inches. A few of the composites in the collection include photographs of sweethearts. A photograph of Emerson, a service dog, is included in 2020/21. The composites for 2015/16 and 2016/17 list a few names for women whose photographs are not included. A few composites have tape damage on the front. Years missing from the collection include: 1987/88; 1994/95; 2001/02; 2007/08; and 2013/14. Photographers are identified on every composite and include: 1983-1990/91 Fraternal Composite Service, Inc.; 1991/92-1993/94 Vantine Studios, Hamilton, NY; 1993/94-2004/05 Custom Composites, Inc.; and 2005/06-2020/21 Digital Pix and Composites, LLC. The collection is stored in oversized folders in map cabinet drawers.
