Records of the Architecture Department, 1905-1990.

The Records of the Architecture Department are housed in four boxes and are arranged in seven series. Series have been designated for administrative materials, exhibits, faculty papers, Institute of Building Science, projects, publications, and student work. These records include published articles, annual reports, meeting minutes, course materials, project products and student theses. Due to faculty, student, and community interaction, materials in the project, student, publication, and Institute of Building Science relate to or overlap one another. Throughout the collection, materials from the 1930s to the 1950s are sparse. The majority of the collection consists of published articles and materials produced from student or faculty research projects.
