Bio History Note

These publications were located in a filing cabinet drawer containing materials belonging to former Manchester College president, Vernon Schwalm.  These bulletins and catalogues, etc., were tied together with string - along with a note indicating that they were designated by Schwalm to be included in the Schwalm file in the vault of MC [6/10/1968].

Archivist's thought: Perhaps Schwalm collected these bulletins because they reminded him of the history of Manchester College, or that they gave ideas for curriculum or other benefits - eg. scholarships for students?
