The Saint 直播自慰视频 University Archives gladly accepts monetary and material donations in order to fulfill its mission to maintain the historical record of Saint 直播自慰视频 University from its beginnings in 1818 to the present day. The collection reflects the rich educational, historical, religious, and cultural heritage of Saint 直播自慰视频 University and of the St. 直播自慰视频 area. The University Archives also collects materials of significant research value representing individuals and institutions outside the university.
As the institutional memory of the University, the University Archives supports the contextualization of the University within Jesuit, Catholic and local history through the acquisition of primary and secondary source material related to the University and those subject areas.
All donors must submit a donation form at the time of transfer. Please let us know if you have any questions about this process or form.

Current Collecting Priorities
The University Archives actively seeks materials related to the past and current history of the University, as well as items documenting Jesuit history, local Catholic history, St. 直播自慰视频 history, and Missouri history. We collect papers, digital files, photographs, video, and small-scale visual art, among other formats.
The Archives prioritize collections that offer a contextualization and expanded understanding of the rich history that the University encompasses and represents. As we seek to fill some of the gaps in our current collection and meet the changing research needs of our students, faculty, staff, and external researchers, we are particularly interested in materials that reflect the experiences of women and underrepresented groups, both at the University and in the St. 直播自慰视频 region, including BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities.
