Description:
These are materials from the College of the Atlantic's sixteenth commencement ceremony, held on May 28, 1988, in Bar Harbor.

The first image is from the commencement invitation. It has a blue and white illustration depicting abstract human figures in a circle, locking arms.

The second image is from the commencement program brochure. It has a stylized black and white illustration depicting a crane in mid-flight. According to a May 20, 1988 COA News release, the 1988 commencement ceremony included a large mobile constructed of one thousand origami cranes, made by members of the graduating class and community. The cranes symbolized world peace and were inspired by the memory of Sadako Sasaki, a survivor of the Hiroshima bomb whose project to make one thousand paper cranes became an international symbol of a wish for peace.
