These records includes report cards and grade books documenting the results of the courses taken by students at the Maryland Agricultural College. The bulk of the materials date from 1903 to 1907.
This collection is organized as two series:
The report cards were donated to the University of Maryland College Park Libraries in the 1970s. The grade books were received with another library donation and were transferred to the University Archives by the Acquisitions Department in 1986. The C.F. Kramer, Jr. grade books were donated to the University of Maryland Libraries in 2012.
The materials were unfolded, paper clips and staples were removed, and the documents were put in acid-free folders and boxes. A guide was then prepared. In 2009, restrictions on this collection were lifted after being closed for a period of 75 years.
