These boxes constitute part of the original college archives that were brought together in 1989 in the aftermath of Hurricane Hugo. Printed guide available in the repository and at the Library's Public Services Desk. While every effort was made to obtain and preserve materials relating to the history of the college, the Archives were not systematically organized prior to 1989. After Hurricane Hugo struck Charlotte in September of 1989, the college was able to have the materials in the archives boxed and inventoried. A preliminary list of materials in the Archives was prepared, and that list has formed the basis for work with the collection in place before 1997.
