"We have been wrong on just about every major development
in the USSR since the Bolshevik revolution. We didn't anticipate
the revolution; when it occurred, we didn't think it would succeed;
when it was successful, we thought socialism was going to be
abandoned; when it wasn't we thought we wouldn't have to
recognize the new Soviet state; when we did, we acted first as if it
was like the Western democracies and then as if it was like the
Nazis; when the Germans invaded, we thought the Russians could
last only six weeks; when they survived the war, we thought they
couldn't recover quickly from it; when they recovered quickly, we
thought they didn't have the know-how to build missiles, and so
on. "rhis record would seem to suggest that perhaps we should not
be too positive in other assumptions we have made."

The photograph record group that was gifted to Casper College consists of photographs and negatives created and/or used by the Casper Star Tribune from 1967 until the middle of 1995 according to a newspaper article on the donation from February of 2000. In the words of Special Collections Curator, Kevin Anderson, the photographs in this collection serve to document "events in our own lives, events in our own history." There were 19,000 envelopes that were gifted to the repository, which totaled between 330,000 and 460,000 images. Images in this collection may support the use of other collections in the repository or vice versa.

CHAD HANSON
'The Star
For years he carried a miniature travel-sized guitar into the mountains,
strapped to the back of a rucksack. Then he made camp in the cirques and
glaciers. After sunset, around a campfire, he sang with his head tilted upward.
He played the songs he could remember, before sleep weighed his eyelids.
Last fall, he didn’t come back from the high country. A rescue team found the
guitar next to a fire ring, in a spot they all described as inspirational. On the
evening of the disappearance, an astronomer discovered a new star.
