              The field studies, theses, creative works, and starred papers are completed to fulfill the requirements to receive a master's degree.

              After the state of Minnesota passed law in April 1953 to allow for "fifth year" courses or graduate classes at state colleges, St. Cloud State first offered graduate work in the summer of 1953. The first master's degrees were awarded in May 1954.

              The records are organized in three series.

              Series 1: Publications

              This series contains manuals for the preparation of St. Cloud State field studies, theses, creative works and starred papers,  as well as abstracts of field studies, theses, creative works, and starred papers.  The abstracts are especially helpful as they give a short summary of work itself.

              Series 2: Microfilm

              This series contains microfilm of St. Cloud State field studies, theses, creative works and starred papers. Though not sure of the date range, it is believed that it goes back to the late 1950s.  This series also contains a nearly complete index to the microfilm. Microfilm copies are no longer created.

              Series 3: Microfiche

              This series contains microfiche of St. Cloud State field studies, theses, creative works and starred papers. Though not sure of the date range, it is believed that it goes back at least 1957.

              There are bound copies of all St. Cloud State field studies, theses, creative works and starred papers, in the theses section of Miller Center.  In addition, these works are cataloged individually in the online catalog.

              The copies of the St. Cloud State field studies, theses, creative works and starred papers are meant as a back up to the bound copies in the theses section of Miller Center.  The copies in this collection are only consulted when the paper copy is lost or stolen.

              As of November 2015, the master theses were not printed and put on the library shelves with a microfiche copy given to University Archives. All master theses are now published on St. Cloud State's institutional repository at http://repository.stcloudstate.edu/.

              The abstracts are also available alongside the theses in the theses section of Miller Center.

              Several histories have been written about St. Cloud State University since 1944, some brief, some much longer.

              17 · Collection · 1953-2009

              The graduate catalog represents the most official publication of St. Cloud State. Dating back to 1953, the catalog describes the purpose of the university, admission requirements, classes and class descriptions, tuition and fees, buildings and grounds, and faculty.

              Starting with the 2012/14 general catalog, both the graduate and undergraduate catalogs were combined together.  This catalog is found with the undergraduate catalogs.

              The final graduate catalog goes to 2009.
