OHIO in 1968

May 9, 2018 It takes a village to produce OHIO’s annual Athena yearbook. The same held true for the 1968 Athena yearbook staff, members of the letterpress and darkroom era. Led by Editor Ronald Beno, BFA ’68, the 50-plus staff members—from copy editor to sales manager, production manager to art director—held their own to create a timeless piece of OHIO nostalgia while chalking up experience in the real world of publishing. Today’s Athena staff step up just like their predecessors, capturing OHIO moments each fall to spring, only 21st century-style.

 The 1968 Athena photographers escaped Athens for the county’s backroads on sweet rides to capture their staff photo. Each student photog had a nickname, says the yearbook’s photo caption, notably, “Buffalo,” “Sergeant Rat,” and “the Kid.”
