During World War II, a group of Wofford faculty prepared a newsletter to communicate with the college's alumni who were serving in the armed forces. These newsletters began as a short, typed message but as alumni shared information about where they were, what they were doing, and fellow alumni they were meeting in other countries, they expanded it into a true publication. The newsletter ceased at the end of 1945, but was replaced by a permanent alumni newsletter for all alumni of the college.
