If you find a collection in University Archives that you would like to research, please contact archives staff to schedule an appointment and request the collection, box, or folder you would like to look at.

Tips to searching these collections for International Students:

  • Determine who was university president at the time you are studying. Look through their collection to see what might be of interest. 
  • Try the following keywords:
    • name of country
    • name of funding agency or program
    • "international" or "foreign" 
    • by year of interest
    • by college or major
  • If you find a club, search the ASI Club Records to see if there are records relating to that club.
