In celebration of Southern Utah University’s 125th Birthday, SUU, in partnership with the Visit Cedar City • Brian Head is hosting a series of guided experiences. These tours will showcase the University as never before. Exploring the past, present, and future of SUU, these guided experiences are a true celebration of the spirit of our founders. Our April event will be a tour of SUU’s Special Collections.

Special Collections and University Archives located on the Garden Level of the Gerald R. Sherratt Library on the campus at Southern Utah University is the physical center for rare books, historical collections, university archives, photographs, memorabilia, and other items of historical value. Their mission is to collect, protect, and make accessible the records of the university as well as unique collections that support the university and community's teaching and research purposes. Special Collections serves as a regional repository under the Utah State Historical Records Advisory Board to preserve and provide access to historical documents and photographic materials.

Our guide will be Paula Mitchell, the University Archivist and Associate Professor of Library and Information Science. Tours will be held on Thursday April 7th and 21st at 7pm. They are free and open to all. Come celebrate with us.
