Scope and Contents of the Materials
This record group was compiled through the years from a number of sources. Many of the files came from physical plant, but others are from different places.

It also includes files from other properties or structures owned by the college. The record group includes buildings owned by the college for any amount of time, including those built by the college.

Other structures/sites are filed as “other.” The contents of each series vary, although most contain general buildings statistics such as the date it was built and dimensions. Some also include building specifications, blueprints, dedication materials and financial information.
