In Reid Hall, Edith Brawley prepares items for the Upcountry History Museum exhibit as Ruth Burton looks on.

An exhibit celebrating Erskine’s 175-year history will be on display at the Upcountry History Museum in Greenville Sept. 27 through Oct. 26.

“Due West of Ordinary: Stories from 175 years of Christian Scholarship at Erskine” consists of photos and memorabilia, including display cases highlighting specially selected artifacts from the McCain Library Department of Archives and Special Collections.
