A handful of Casper historians are worried about Casper College’s Western History Center, which will be without an archivist beginning in July. Long-time collection archivist Vince Crolla is among eight staff members who will be laid off from the college come July 1. The college announced the layoffs in February but did not specify which positions would be cut. While the collection will remain at the college, community historians have raised concerns about the college’s ability to maintain it without an archivist. Several opponents of the move testified before the College Board of Trustees in a meeting Tuesday.
