Since 1949 the Alumni Association has supported the class agent plan, whereby each class receives regular informal newsletters compiled and written by a volunteer class member. Prior to 1949 class officers kept in touch with their classmates, kept address files, and some classes printed class letters (see Series 3.2).

These files consist of cards containing information about deceased alumni. Occasionally there were also included: correspondence, clippings about the alumnus, and biographical and genealogical information. For most alumni, the cards are filed alphabetically together in a folder with others. A separate folder was made alumni for whom there is more substantive information; their names are listed below. Provenance: The files were transferred to the Archives in July, 1997.
