Historical information

The name "Analecta" refers to a collection of short literary pieces, however the students who put the Analecta together in 1964 defined it as meaning crumbs or gleanings. Their hope was to 'bring to its readers something of what happens at Luther College day by day, year by year'. The inaugural publication of the Analecta contains a number of short articles, including a brief history of the establishment of Luther, musings about the common room where there was never a dull moment for the boarding students, and small black and white photos of 'around the school'.
