Admissions records, correspondence, and photographs, circa 1888-1961, of prospective students and faculty members at Michigan Technological University, primarily created under its prior name of the Michigan College of Mines (1897-1927). Also included are significant records from the students of the Michigan Mining School (name used 1885-1897) and from the Michigan College of Mining and Technology (1927-1964). An index of the materials, presumably prepared by the department creating the records, is also part of MTU-121.
