Description
The small staple bound bulletin, What Alabama College Offers, was distributed throughout the state of Alabama to promote Alabama College. It includes descriptions of the college campus, environment, and avaliable course work in a pocket size format for convenience and easy distribution. On the page pictured, a description of Alabama College's "Health Program" is included; mentioned in this section of the bulletin is the College’s dairy which supplied milk to its dining halls. It states that at the time they had over a hundred registered cattle including both Holstein and Jersey cows. The College dairy operated between 1908 and 1960 before it was converted into housing for faculty.
The above mentioned bulletin was selected for exhibition to highlight the role of publications of its type in the school's history. These publications serve as recruiting mechanisms to sustain and increase enrollment. Within the Milner Archives and Special Collections of the University of Montevallo bulletins of this sort from as far back as the school's founding in 1896 to present day are preserved for academic research as well as for alumni's viewing pleasure.
