Lt. Governor Carole Hillard Collection 

Carole Hillard began a political career by serving on the Rapid City Common Council, then became a representative in the state legislature.  From 1995 to 2003 Carole served as South Dakota's first and only woman lieutenant governor.  Once retired from public office, she spent the next five years traveling to more than 60 countries promoting and training leaders in the fundamentals of democracy, monitoring elections, and advancing the notion that women should have a role in emerging democratic countries. 

• The Hillard collection consists of correspondence, letters, notes, graduation diplomas, magazines featuring articles of Carole, bound materials, and oversize items such as posters, framed photographs, photograph albums, and speeches of Lt. Governor Carole Hillard from 1986-2006.
