Howard G. DeVoe (1918-2002) was a student at Syracuse University from 1948 to 1951. DeVoe was a veteran and attended college under the GI Bill. He graduated from the School of Engineering with a degree in civil engineering.
The Howard G. DeVoe Papers include a set of four tuition ledger cards, civil engineering student news bulletins, and materials for a summer surveying camp through the College of Applied Science. The ledger cards are from his first two years of schooling at Syracuse University and indicate his veteran status and the cost of tuition as a veteran. The summer surveying camp materials also include a veteran textbook and supply voucher, along with a notebook and graded classwork. The civil engineering news bulletins postdate his time as a student and the first bulletin indicates alumni of the program were the intended audience.
Please note that the collection is housed off-site, and advance notice is required to allow time to have the materials brought to the Reading Room on campus.
Written permission must be obtained from the Syracuse University Archives and all relevant rights holders before publishing quotations, excerpts or images from any materials in this collection.
Brief biographical information can be found in the 1951 Onondagan, which can be found in the Syracuse University Yearbook Collection. More information about veterans on campus can be found in the Syracuse University World War II Collection.
