 New students at Massachusetts Agricultural College, Massachusetts State College, and the University of Massachusetts were issued handbooks when they arrived on campus containing general information on college traditions, buildings, work opportunities, the faculty, clubs, organizations, and publications, as well as social activities. Each handbook contained a small map of campus to help orient newcomers.  The handbooks were produced by the Young Mens' Christian Association (YMCA) until 1923 and thereafter by the Christian Association, the Student Religious Council, the Student Senate, and the Women's Student Government Association respectively, before being delegated to a student handbook staff.  New students at Massachusetts Agricultural College, Massachusetts State College, and the University of Massachusetts were issued handbooks when they arrived on campus containing general information on college traditions, buildings, work opportunities, the faculty, clubs, organizations, and publications, as well as social activities.
