Introduction and Provenance

Since 1969, J. M. "Sudsy" Tschiderer has played a paramount role in the development of student leadership on campus.  She served as a founding member of the Student Activities office and she worked in the Division of Student Affairs for nearly twenty-six years.  With an avid interest in journalism, she established and contributed to a number of campus publications, including the Crow's Nest.  Donated to the USF St. Petersburg library's Special Collections and Archives in December 1995, the Tschiderer Student Publications Collection includes Sudsy Tschiderer's personal archival copies of the Crow's Nest, Bayboro Raconteur, and affiliated correspondence.

Restrictions/Preservation Note

The acidic paper often used for pamphlets, newspapers, or newsletters has promoted some physical deterioration of some items in this collection.  To prevent further damage to materials in the Tschiderer Student Publications Collection, refrain from placing any additional stress on the paper fibers by folding or creasing newspapers, or by exposing them to light for an extended period of time.  Please report any tears or other damage so library staff may take appropriate preservation or conservation measures.  While no restrictions limit access to the newspapers, library staff will evaluate photocopying requests on an individual basis to ensure the long-term preservation of this unique collection.

Scope and Contents

This collection includes original issues of the Crow's Nest and similar publications that document the history of the USF St. Petersburg campus, as well as associated correspondence.
