Scope and Contents
From the Record Group:
The materials in this record group document a wide range of university business and sports. The collection is valuable to researchers because the information documents dates, people, and events that are sometimes not available anywhere else in the archives. The materials mostly consist of newspaper clippings and death records of administrators and some WWII student soldiers. An employee of the Publications Office (now University Communications & Marketing) must have been responsible to clip university news from various papers throught Dauphin, Cumberland, Frankllin, and Adams counties. This record group includes records of academic departments that have been orphaned or renamed. The documents are arranged in two series that include Series 1 (General College Business) and Series 2 (Sports).
