The majority of the archives of the Concordia Club were destroyed either as a result of the ransacking of the club by the 118th Batallion in 1916, or as a result of the fire of November 17, 1971. As a result the earliest records of Concordia have largely been lost forever. A very small number of items can be traced back to the Concordia Male Choir (1873-1914). These take the form of two items of correspondence, programs for the "Sängerfests", clippings, and photographs. A small number of archival records also can be found which belonged to the "Deutscher Club, Kitchener" (1925-1930), and include a set of house rules, letters patent, and photographs. Some records from the 1930s have also been preserved to this day, and include artifacts, clippings, legal documents, a membership list, photographs, and programs of events. However, the majority of the materials date from the 1950s onwards. These materials document the history of the Concordia Club since the 1950s, and include artifacts, audiovisual material, clippings, correspondence, ephemera, financial records, legal documents, membership records, minutes of meetings, photographs, publications, and scrapbooks.

A gavel plaque given to Paul Koch (BASc ’63) in recognition of his role as the first B Term President for the Engineering Society of the University of Waterloo (now Waterloo Engineering Society) from 1958-1959. The plaque was presented to Paul Koch during Engineering Nite '63, an event hosted by the Engineering Society. In addition to the gavel, the plaque features an engraving plate with the following inscription: PAUL KOCH / PRESIDENT / ENGINEERING SOCIETY / OF THE / UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO / 1958-59.

Collection consists of a scrapbook album created by Mabel Welma Fox during her time at the University of Michigan (1921-1923). The scrapbook is covered with correspondence, photographs, newspaper clippings, ephemera, physical objects, and annotations that guide the reader through Fox’s university life.

Photographs are of Fox’s house guests, parties, field trips, prom, graduation, and members of the Betsy Barbour women’s residence hall. Newspaper clippings and full editions include Michigan Daily, College News, The Detroit News Mail edition, and Detroit Free Press, as well as others unidentified. Ephemera includes posters, invitations, tickets, and programs for events; place, calling, membership, and business cards; envelopes with receipts (including for tuition, lodging and rent, transportation, raffle tickets, and memberships); report and grade cards; poetry clippings and pages stripped from books; notebooks with course notes; cards and napkins; materials related to 1923 Commencement; and booklets for the University of Michigan Women’s League. Physical objects include decorations made with crepe paper for different events, a pencil tied to a notebook, and a mini frying pan from a dinner event, and rose leaves and petals.

The scrapbook is housed in a production scrapbook published by the College Memory Book Company from Chicago (Illinois, USA) with copyright from 1918, W.M.W. Clay, and with the title “National Memory and Fellowship Book.”

The first 25 pages of scrapbook include pre-printed sections used by Fox and/or her colleagues. Preprinted sections include annotations, drawings, photographs and ephemera (by students from Michigan, the United States, Japan, and China).
Pre-printed sections are:

• Register of friends,
• Faculty and Campus,
• Student Hall of Fame,
• Comparative Athletic Record,
• School and Social Functions,
• My Favourites,
• Entertainments, Lectures, Plays,
• Memorable Trips,
• Clubs and Societies,
• Professors I Have Met,
• Dates and Doings,
• Things Worth-Wile Noting,
• Lest you forget.

The remainder of the pages are part of the same production scrapbook but do not show section titles. Some pages are left unused. And some items look like they were clipped from another scrapbook (including several items that were inside an envelope pasted to backcover).

A red melton wool jacket from the University of Waterloo Faculty of Arts worn by an undergraduate student in the early 1960s. The jacket is lined with brown paisley polyester satin. The back of the jacket contains white letter patches that spell out, “UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO.” The left sleeve of the jacket includes white letter and number patches that spell out, “ARTS / 65.” Based on these number patches, it is likely the student that owned this jacket graduated from the university in 1965.

A grey melton wool jacket from the University of Waterloo Faculty of Engineering worn by David Rumpel (BASc '64), an undergraduate student studying Engineering Physics. The front left-side of the jacket includes a patch with the UW initials and an Engineering banner. The back of the jacket contains gold letter patches that spell out, “UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO.” The right sleeve of the jacket includes the gold number patches, “64.”

A teal sweater designed by Professor Emeritus Peter Ponzo for the Faculty of Mathematics that features illustrations of various animals on the front representing different groups within the faculty. Included in the illustration is a penguin representing the artificial intelligence group, a flamingo representing the Computer Science Group, beavers also representing Computer Science, as well as a python and a lion although their representation is unknown. In addition, the sweater illustration includes drawings of the Math and Computer Building, the Waterloo Crest, a Waterloo Math logo, two individuals wearing pink ties and other small details such as computers, pencils, waves, graphs, a maple leaf, and more.

A yellow nylon jacket from the University of Waterloo Faculty of Science worn by an undergraduate student in the 1960s. The front left-side of the jacket includes a patch with the University of Waterloo crest and motto. The back of the jacket contains white letter patches that spell out, “UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO.” The left sleeve of the jacket contains white letter patches that spell out, “SCI.” The right sleeve of the jacket includes the white number patches, “67.” Based on these number patches, it is likely the student that owned this jacket graduated from the university in 1967.

A gold two-button blazer from the University of Waterloo worn by Peter Dallas (BSc '72), an undergraduate student in one of the first kinesiology classes at the University of Waterloo. The front left side of the jacket includes a patch with the University of Waterloo name and the School of Physical Education and Recreation logo on the chest pocket. The jacket was manufactured by Sainthill-Levine Co. Ltd.

According to Peter Dallas, the blazer was ordered for students in the first kinesiology classes by Dr. Robert (Bob) Norman and Neil Widmeyer, both faculty members in the School of Physical Education and Recreation during that period.

Peter Dallas wore the blazer with pride at numerous alumni reunions and had recently celebrated his fiftieth-year anniversary in 2022.

A black, white, and gold athletic tracksuit. The front left-side of the jacket has a vertical white stripe with black vinyl letter patches spelling out "WATERLOO." The tracksuit was manufactured by Darby Sportswear Co. Ltd of Paris, ON. While it is believed that this tracksuit is from the University of Waterloo, it is possible that it is associated with the Waterloo Thunderbirds, a local girls’ hockey team.

Fonds consists of two binders compiled by Dr. Henry H. Crapo when he was a Trustee with the Wasemquia Charitable Trust. The binders document the Vestris Prize Competition for Choreography in 1967 and 1968, which the Wasemquia Charitable Trust helped to sponsor. Fonds documents scheduling and planning for the competition, as well as lists of competitors and judges.

Correspondence addressed to and from Henry Crapo, discussing various topics such as invitations sent to renowned ballet dancers in the New York world to judge in the competition are included, along with press releases and letters to advertisement agencies to promote the competition. Other records in the binders include clippings from newspaper and magazines advertising the competition, as well as black and white photographs depicting trophies from the competitions and scenes of performance entries.

Fonds also includes a yellow patina bronze statue that depicts a caricature of Auguste Vestris, which acted as the central theme for the Vestris Prize competition. The statue portrays Auguste Vestris with an oversized head, wings, and a garland.

A white jacket from the Waterloo College and Associate Faculties (also referred to as the Associate Faculties) worn by Robert Judd (BASc '63), an undergraduate student, in 1958. The front left-side of the jacket features a design printed in blue that includes the school name, “Waterloo College,” the Waterloo College coat of arms, and the Waterloo College motto “Veritas omnia vincit.” The back of the jacket features the word “Engineering” printed in blue lettering across the centre. The jacket was manufactured by Beaver Fine Outerwear.

Robert Judd arrived on campus in September 1957 and joined the second cohort of students in the newly established Associate Faculties. Judd began classes in October 1957 and adhered to a 40-hour weekly classroom schedule. Classes were held in temporary portables located in the Waterloo College parking lot. Robert Judd likely purchased the jacket in the spring of 1958 and wore it until a new grey school jacket became available around 1960. He kept this jacket for many years as an alumnus and recently celebrated his sixtieth-year anniversary in 2023.
