A few practical questions
Tell us your induction date early. Samples of names, biographies and photos help but aren’t required. We’ll review the first collection, who prepares the content and the display setup with you, then agree on a realistic launch plan.
No. Academic achievements, the arts, alumni, donors, staff and school traditions can all have a place alongside athletics. Your school's priorities shape the collections.
Yes. Rocket recognition sites can be explored on the web as well as on a compatible touchscreen. Open Hermitage’s Hall of Fame above to try it.
