MATC's effort to attract students to learn skills necessary for wartime jobs and to train students for postwar work is documented through the news clippings found in Volume 1.

Photos, 1960s-circa 1972-1974 (Boxes 4 and 5) are filed alphabetically by department. Photos and slides, 1974-1991 (Boxes 5-22) are filed in folders labeled with an alphabetical character followed by a sequential number, roughly in chronological order.

Site selection of the Truax campus and building construction is documented through the news clipping scrapbooks, 1978-1986.
