Historical Sketch
DePauw University first began publishing yearbooks in 1884. The first publication was called the Mirror. The name was changed to the Mirage in 1886. The Mirage has remained the annual for DePauw ever since, missing publication just a few years. Incidentally though, in 1908, the annual was renamed the Sombrero. It went back to Mirage the next year.
