TCU Vertical Files, 1869-2007 (inclusive), 1950-1990 (bulk)

The files include historical documents that pertain to the University and its various activities, such as the original charter for AddRan Christian College and a list of graduates from the college's very first matriculating class, for example.  Also included are materials produced by various campus departments and organizations (i.e. ROTC, the Alumni Association, English Department, etc.) as well as flyers from various art exhibits, film festivals, and numerous other campus events.  Several subject files have been added over time, such as "Horned Frog Mascot," "Minorities at TCU" and "Student Life."  Newspaper clippings, university bulletins, publications, correspondence and pamphlets make up the bulk of the material in these files.
