Offered as part of the Five College Archives Digital Access Project, many key documents from the history of Amherst College are contained within this remarkable collection. The site consists of four smaller collections: Annual Catalogues, 1822-1900; Coeducation Collection, 1870-1998; Edward and Orra White Hitchcock Papers; and Snell Family Papers. In this last collection, visitors can look over the papers of Ebenezer Snell, an alumnus from the first graduating class of 1822 who went on to teach Natural Philosophy and Mathematics at the institution for decades. Visitors can read some of his travel diaries and his letters to colleagues near and far. The Annual Catalogues contain complete lists of faculty, student enrollment information, and committee records, while the Coeducation Collection is a great place to read about the long-standing debate between traditional, all-male education and coeducation. Official documents housed here include 1974's "Committee on Educational Policy" and the "Select Committee on the Quality of Undergraduate Life" from 1980.
