This is also content we would very much like to have as part of the University Archives.

University Archives & Historical Collections


Quoting "Richard Wiggins" <[log in to unmask]>:

> Several years ago I compiled a list of sources about history of MSU.
> Someone was asking online about MSU's name over the years and I went
> to look it up.
>
> Sadly, it turns out that many of the sources have removed or renamed
> the pages.
>
> If you go to www.msu.edu and search for "history" you'll find:
>
> History of Michigan State University
> http://keywords.msu.edu/viewpathfinder.asp?id=7
>
> And it is surprising how many links that describe important MSU
> history have become broken:
>
> Vincent Voice Library Finding Aid.
> http://www.lib.msu.edu/services/dmc/vincent//findaids/
>
> A Brief History of the College of Human Medicine
> http://www.chm.msu.edu/chmhome/home/history.htm
>
> MSU Presidents - Biographical Sketches
> https://www.msu.edu/unit/msuarhc/presdnt.html
>
> WKAR Television - Historical Note
> http://wkar.org/tv/about/index.php#history
>
> I hope folks that care about MSU history will restore these links, and
> I hope someone will edit the Pathfinder to point to the content.
>
> It's not just about preserving the bits; breaking URLs breaks history.
