Milledgeville, GA: The Students of Georgia State College for Women, 1943. First Edition. Hardcover. This volume belonged to a junior class member and contains a number of signatures but not, alas, O'Connor's. Mild soiling and wear. Overall Very Good . Quarto (9" x 12") in white cloth. Flannery O'Connor's freshman yearbook at the Georgia State College for Women containing her freshman picture, a photo of her in the Newman Club, a photo of her as a member of the literary journal staff, and mention of her in the Allegro Club.

Flannery O'Connor was quite busy in her three years at Georgia State College for Women. She would eventually become a member and Editor of The Corinthian, the outlet for creative writing, the campus newspaper, the yearbook staff, the International Relations Club, the Town Girls' Club (for student relations) and, tellingly, the Newman Club, a group for Catholic students (in an overwhelming Protestant South). She was chosen by the student body as one of only twelve seniors (less than 10% of the class) who made exceptional contributions to life at the school, and she was one of only three Bachelor of Arts graduates to receive highest honors.
