Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Diploma and Certificate collection contains a variety of items awarded by the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) and its predecessors. Most of the collection is made up of college diplomas, course completion certificates, service and merit awards, and membership certificates. While some of the items in the collection were awarded to specific individuals, many are blank copies or empty diploma cases. The collection also includes diplomas from several other institutions. These items were awarded to prominent members of the RIT community such as Frank Gannett (Cornell University), Alice Cooke (Wesleyan University), and Caroline Werner Gannett (Syracuse University, Ithaca College).

The collection also includes correspondence related to the redesign of RIT's diploma during the 1970s and 1990's. One folder contains documents from David Pankow who participated in the re-design of the diploma in 1995.
