Provenance

Mindy Pugh was contacted by Catherine "Cat" Gerhard, building manager for Perlstein Hall in October 2024, regarding a basement full of university records. Pugh paid a visit and determined that most could be trashed (e.g. production files for university publications; user manuals and purchase records for office equipment) but a couple cages of presidential and Board of Trustees records should be saved and transferred to the archives.
