Founded in 1863, the University of Massachusetts combines both the applied sciences and disciplines with such traditional liberal arts standards as philosophy, history, and rhetoric. Over the past few years, in keeping with their mission to provide the public with access to their holdings, their library's Department of Special Collections and University Archives has created some fine digital collections. One such collection is the Digital UMass Archive, which brings together a number of primary materials that relate to the history of the institution. Visitors to the site can look through the annual reports from 1864 to 1932, browse through issues of an early student newspaper, and also peruse a few student handbooks from the early 20th century. For anyone interested in the history of higher education in the United States, this website is quite a find.
