This series contains materials created and/or acquired by Walter Murray during his tenure as President, from 1908-1937, documenting nearly three decades of the University of Saskatchewan’s history including its establishment; the faculty crisis of 1919; the development of the Colleges of Agriculture, Arts & Science, Education, Engineering; Law; Medicine, Pharmacy and the Extension Division; and the financial crisis of the Depression years.

This ready-reference collection of articles and clippings has been compiled in order to highlight some main topics of interest within our holdings, or to provide straightforward answers to frequently asked questions. The collection is intended to grow as future archival workers add files for major events, persons, and topics, and flesh out those files already existing with further clippings and articles.
