Athletic Committee (Faculty Committee on Athletics), 1968-1969
Scope and Contents
The collection is arranged into 19 different series, six of which concern Beloit College athletics as a whole, as contained in series like the Midwest Conference and Athletic Committees. Twelve series are delineated by sport and are arranged alphabetically. Sports or clubs that do not have enough records to necessitate their own series, such as volleyball and wrestling, are collected into another series entitled Miscellaneous Sports.
Most of the sports team series contain game and tournament programs, news clippings from Beloit College and outside publications, news releases from the College, team records, statistics, rosters, and schedules.
The Midwest Conference series includes a significant amount of documents, mostly newspaper clippings and correspondence from Presidents Carey Croneis and Miller Upton, regarding the decision in 1951 to expel Beloit College from the conference, and the 1958 decision to readmit the College.
This finding aid does not list audiovisual materials, but the Beloit College Archives does hold many recordings of events on film and VHS tape.
