Overview and metadata sections
The Bureau of Alumni Records was established in January 1949 as an outgrowth of the records office maintained by the Graduate Council, the governing body of the Princeton University Alumni Association. In addition to maintaining the records of Princeton University graduates, the Bureau assisted class officers, served the Princeton Alumni Weekly, and was responsible for publishing the Alumni Directory.
Consists of public files of former graduate students of Princeton University, compiled by the Bureau of Alumni Records. Material in each file varies greatly but may include the names of relatives, notable achievements at Princeton and post-graduation, news items, address updates, and obituaries.
Arranged by the year that the degree was earned, and alphabetically by student's last name within each year.
