Arrangement Notes: Collection is arranged into Combined Men’s and Women’s Tennis, Men’s Tennis Teams and Women’s Tennis Teams. Within these divisions, the collection uses the following order: News clippings, Photographs, Correspondence, Brochures, Drawings, Misc. Materials, and Video. Within these materials, chronological order is kept wherever possible.
Processing Notes: Materials are minimally processed. Duplicates have been removed where found and materials have been minimally arranged and verified. Materials still may be missed filed or misidentified. Further processing should be undertaken at a later date.
Description Notes: There are is one folder that may contain materials from both the men’s and women’s program. This folder contains news releases from marketing and communications, an alumni newsletter, and some information on the historical team records of both men’s and women’s team.
In the men’s tennis collection there are mostly photographs from 1919-1987 and brochures from 1962-2000. These contain mostly team photos, although, especially in the 1968-1979 folder there are many individual photographs. There are some gaps in the brochures, especially between the mid 1970’s to the mid 1990’s. In addition, the brochures from 1968 through the mid 1970’s were combined with the men’s golf team: duplications and missing brochures may be in the men’s golf collection. Finally, there are some newspaper clippings, slides from 1982, scorecards from 1909-1984, and a folder with coach Brock’s 1937 Varsity Tennis information, mostly on expenses for the team.
In the women’s tennis collection there are some undated photographs of women’s tennis teams and some individual players. In addition, there is some historical information, some tennis programs from 1994, though there are some gaps, drawings used in publications from Marketing and Communications, and some misc. materials that contain some news releases, news paper clippings and other publications that contain information on the program and on players.
Provenance Notes: There was no formal acquisition of the materials for this collection. The collection is artificially created. Materials were received from different places at different times. The acquisition sources and dates of the materials are unknown.
