Administrative history
St. Cloud State University was established by the state of Minnesota in 1869 as the Third State Normal School.
Content and structure elements
Scope and content
The Bulletin was published by the university four times a year, including one to two issues a year published as a literary journal. Articles were articles written by St. Cloud State faculty and staff. Topics often related to and about St. Cloud State, and some were not. Article titles are listed in the finding aid by issue.
This collection does not contain all of the issues for each volume. The remaining issues for each volume are the course catalogs for the undergraduate, graduate and summer programs. Thus, all of the publications with the title "Bulletin" had two different purposes - one as a literary journal for St. Cloud State faculty and staff, and the other as course catalogs.
The last bulletin which appeared as a literary journal, was published in January 1960. The course catalogs, still named "Bulletin," continued to be numbered until 1969/70, when the last volume to appear was volume 25.
System of arrangement
The publication is organized in chronological order. Nearly all of the Bulletins are bound.
Records are located at 21G.3a.
