College of Racine Records, 1936-1975

Container Title
Series: Non-Text Materials
Scope and Content Note

The Nontext Materials consist of Photographs, Blueprints and Architects' Drawings, and five Films.

Most of the Photographs are black and white, of a variety of sizes. They are arranged in a Portrait File, a Place File, and a Subject File.

The portrait file contains identified and unidentified portraits of individual administrators, faculty members, and students. The identified portraits are arranged alphabetically within each category. Photographs of nuns are filed by their religious names. The portrait file also includes group portraits, compiled from individual portraits, of the graduating classes from 1954 to 1960, and two undated group portraits of the students and staff at Mt. St. Paul College.

The place file contains a few photographs of the old campus in Racine and photographs of the general surroundings and of each of the buildings of the new campus.

The subject file consists of more casual shots depicting various aspects of campus life including: classrooms and laboratories, the faculty and administration, students, sports, and special events. The photographs also include the contents of a photo album, 1936-1942, 1947-1955, which was disassembled because of deterioration. These photographs depict the old campus and its surroundings, classroom situations, students and faculty, graduates, and some special events and programs.

The Blueprints and Architects' Drawings include one folder of master site plans, 1967 and 1969, showing the layout of the campus and the locations of existing and proposed buildings, and one folder of floor plans of the Administration and Classroom Building, Johnson Hall, the Theatre/Gymnasium Complex, and Wadewitz Hall.

The Films are Super 8 mm movies and 16 mm of Dominican College basketball games during the 1971-72 season and a fragment of a promotional film. The basketball games included are Dominican College versus the UW La Crosse team, the St. Norbert College team, and the Milton College team. Three of the films are in color and one is in black and white. The promotional film fragment is the first reel of a sound film presenting general description of the college and its alternative academic programs. Additional reels of the film are missing.
