The Promethean

The Promethean Through The Years

The Morgan State Yearbook is a student production originally entitled The Spencerian in its 1937 publication and renamed The Promethean from 1938 forward. Ranging in length from roughly 100 to 325 pages, the books uniformly include the university alma mater, the Negro National Anthem (Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing), the college/university president's address, lists of faculty/staff//students, student organizations, and the year in review. Unique features of individual yearbooks include descriptions national figures of significance to the African diaspora. These books are invaluable in their capture of priceless historical events and personalities and Morgan State University's reliable presentation of the greats of the African diaspora to its campus and larger community. This collection captures yearbooks from 1937 to 2018.
