<head>Historical note</head>
<p>The first Roger Williams College yearbook was published in 1970. It was given the title "Witness" as it bore witness the events, people, and places which influenced the lives of the first graduating class of Roger Williams College in Bristol. Over the years the yearbook was published under many titles. Since 1995 it has been called "Crossings".</p>
