Scope and Contents

27 clippings scrapbooks and loose clippings of general information related to WMC/MCP. All scrapbooks are of a general nature, covering any topic relevant to the school and hospital and were compiled anonymously (probably by the public relations department in later years). One of the two more specific scrapbooks focuses on the Alice Tallant Affair; the other was compiled by Dr. Rachel L. Bodley, Dean of the College from 1874-1888. Each scrapbook covers a particular period of time with the total time period covered being from 1867 to 1972 with single clippings dating to 1854. The loose clippings were transferred intermittently to the Archives from the PR Department, and are dated 1966 to 1984. *Note: Four record cartons of materials containing Dateline MCP, a compilation of reprints from local and national newspapers and magazine articles, are stored off-site at Pierce Leahy storage under accession number 133 in customer box numbers, 5201680, 5201683-85.
