Publications, 1944-1945, unknown

The World War II Collection is housed in three archival boxes and five oversized folders. Six series have been designated for War Training, War Administration, Publications, Veterans, Faculty, and Miscellaneous. This collection includes correspondence, newspaper clippings, charts, published items, travel materials, pamphlets, posters, meeting minutes, photos, government bills, telegrams and reports. The collection details the development of CIT's involvement with the Department of Defense, dating from 1939 and continuing in the post war years, both in terms of scientific training and in terms of collaboration with the military.

The depth of administrative and logistical correspondence relating to the ESMWT program and its corresponding administrative body, the Engineering War Manpower Commission, is a particular strongpoint, while substantial gaps exist in the material relating to the Navy training program and the ROTC, of which the latter mainly addresses details of deferment. Correspondence relating to veterans' affairs is particularly thorough relating to CIT's alumni relations and to the development of the GI Bill, but lacks detail on the use of the G.I. Bill on CIT campus.

The information for some series may seem to overlap; however, the series designations reflect the overall content of the material and address several facets of CIT's involvement in World War II.
