Vouchers and Records, May 1922

 File — Box: 921, Folder: 22

Scope and Contents

From the Record Group:

The records include subject files and correspondence of Karl McDonel and Elliot Ballard during their time as Secretary of the Board of Trustees. There is also one file of records from Jacweir (Jack) Breslin's time as Secretary. Their files cover a variety of subjects and give a varied and rather complete look at the operations of Michigan State University. Other records include early financial records for labor, purchasing, and farm products; building inventories; departmental and grading records; Veteran's Bureau records; and a certificate appointing Ira Butterfield as Postmaster of the Agricultural College.

Boxes 920 and 921 as well as the oversized material relate to the early functioning of the office. Boxes 352 and 353 were transferred to the Archives when the office went by the title of Office of the Executive Vice President and Secretary to the Board of Trustees. Consequently, the boxes and folders will be labeled as from this office, with that offices’ record group number (UA 4.0). However, the contents reflect the work of the Secretary to the Board of Trustees during the 1950s and 1960s.

Electronic Resources include correspondence in the form of e-mail memos and attachments.
