Prof. Benitez: Research using the Cañada College Archives

Sources to Consider: Then & Now

Information about changing student populations (demographics) at Canada College can add to research on your chosen topic or stand alone as demographic study.

Recommended primary sources from the Archives for studying historical demographic information include:  

• Canãda College Student Profiles & Enrollment reports (documents)

• Personnel directories, 1968- (documents)
• Canada College Student newspapers (who are the articles by and about?)
• College promotional materials describing programs, support centers, etc. (ex., Student Development Program)
• Papers and research reports

For current demographic information (2020-2025), use the College "dashboard" for student enrollment and demographics
