The Student Life series, 1950-1952, contains student handbooks, meal cards, schedule planning notes, a copy of “The Dorm News,” and class program schedules. The Publications series (1951-1953) includes a list of Augustana Observers from 1950-1953 which belonged to Charles Sabbath but have been separated from the collection. Also included are Augustana Bulletins with schedule markings, final examination schedules, and class schedule booklets. All materials were published by Augustana College.
