Tau Beta Pi (Great Smoky Mountain Alumnus Chapter) Collection

 Collection
Identifier: MS-2046

  • Staff Only

This collection houses proposed agendas and minutes of meetings, financial statements, membership lists, and general correspondence documenting the activities of the Tau Beta Pi Great Smoky Mountains Alumnus Chapter between 1976 and 1990. Due to the changing officers of the chapter, different methods of record keeping were utilized and so there are missing records and gaps in the collection.

Interested researchers may also wish to consult MS.1715: Tau Beta Pi Association Collection, 1905-1987.
