Graduates of the Medieval Institute

Western Michigan University first granted the M.A. in Medieval Studies in 1964, and over 150 degrees have been awarded in the years since. Many Medieval Institute alumni who have remained active in medieval studies gather at a reception sponsored by the Goliardic Society at the International Congress on Medieval Studies.
