In order to honor their patriotism and service, we're collecting information for and about Keene Normal School, Keene Teachers College, and Keene State College veterans of the US military. Our goal is to gather information from as many alumni, staff, faculty, and students who have served their country during war or peace time. We'd like to make sure that the sacrifices and achievements of our veterans are not forgotten.

This will be an ongoing project that will help us create an archive of personal and historical information. We welcome stories, photos, and letters from our military veterans. Actual photos and letters might be used in displays during the College's upcoming Centennial, in future articles, artist renderings, publications, or as part of our alumni archives.

Please use our online form to tell us about your time in the service. Or, if you prefer to send us paper documents, please give us your name and address, so we can return them promptly. Send them to:

You can also email us at alumni@keene.edu. If you email us stories or pictures, please identify yourself clearly, and put "Veterans Project" in the subject line.
