As part of UMass Boston’s 50th anniversary celebrations, students working with University Archives & Special Collections have been digitizing, describing, and making available photos from the school’s past. View our collection of University Archives Historic Photographs.
While every effort is made to identify individuals and events pictured, we can always use your help filling in some of the gaps! Every week we will post a new photo with missing information, and if you recognize the people or event simply make a comment below or email library.archives@umb.edu telling us what you know. With your help we can create an even better record of UMass Boston’s history!
In this photo, UMass Boston Chancellor Carlo L. Golino, left, and two unidentified men are photographed in front of a plan for the new Columbia Point campus detailing its different phases of construction. The Columbia Point campus first welcomed students in 1974 after spending the previous decade in Boston’s Park Square.
