Overview

Biographical / Historical

The Reveille was the official Fort Hays State University yearbook. The first edition was published in 1914 by the Fort Hays Kansas State Normal School in Hays, Kansas. It was then published annually with the exception of 1918 and 1919 when it was released as a two year "Victory Edition" in the spring of 1919. Throughout its history the Reveille was nominated for state and national student journalism awards. In 1996 Reveille was recognized as a Pacemaker Finalist and in the 1997 Reveille was awarded the Collegiate Journalist Gold Medalist Award. The last edition of The Reveille was published by FHSU in 2003.

Different publication companies were used to facilitate the printing of the Reveille over the years. Photographs in the University Archives Photograph Collection contain stamps with the number "04673" as well as page and picture numbers. While these images do not specify the year, these are often images that appear in the Reveille. As cataloging of that collection continues, archival staff will document efforts to fully explore the connections between these collections.
