Submit your memories and be a part of history!

As part of Pratt's 125th Anniversary celebration, we're launching the Pratt 125th Anniversary Memory Project, which will document the recollections of Institute alumni, faculty, and staff over the past several decades. Pratt's history spans some of the most important events of the past 125 years-events that helped shape our culture and continue to influence society. Now, we're turning to you to help us capture and preserve these precious stories.

Do you remember the elevated train that once ran through campus? The exhilarating classes with your favorite professor? The mood on campus and your response to the Vietnam War or the aftermath of September 11th? We invite you to share your most compelling memories and images of Pratt Institute through the decades. Selected submissions will appear in a special commemorative issue of Prattfolio, on the pratt.edu Website, and in promotional and other materials related to Pratt's 125th Anniversary.

Send your submissions to 125memory@pratt.edu

You may send your submissions to the 125th Anniversary Memory Project, including photographs (300 dpi at 100%, if possible), via email to 125memory@pratt.edu. Please include your contact information and Pratt affiliation, including degree and year if you are an alum.
