Yale student papers collection

 Collection
Call Number: RU 331

Scope and Contents

The collection consists of research papers and essays by Yale students. Included are many prize-winning essays. Due to retention of Yale College senior papers and other papers being determined by individual faculty department, this collection does not house a robust collection of undergraduate material. All Senior Honors Essays that have been deposited at Manuscripts and Archives have been listed in this collection, and can be searchable by name.
