Scope and Content

Correspondence, mailings, reports, printed materials, and ephemera collected and generated by members of the University administration during and shortly after the war. About half of the material is correspondence from and about CSC Chaplains in the army, Notre Dame soldiers, and local and state organizations and groups. The latter correspondence concerns the documentation of Notre Dame's and Saint Joseph County's war activities. The rest of the materials are mailings and printed matter from state and federal, and national and private organizations. The University certainly received more mailings than just these, so it is unclear why only these mailings were added to this collection, if in fact it was a conscious decision. Among the major correspondents represented in these documents are Fathers John W. Cavanaugh, William A. Moloney, and John F. O'Hara; John W. Oliver, the Director of the Indiana War Records Project; and various CSC chaplains and Notre Dame men in the army and navy.
