The Pinks series was the cross-reference file for subject correspondence generated by Senator Strom Thurmond's office for the period 1954-1976 before the introduction of the centralized Correspondence Management System by the Senate Computer Center in 1976. The original cross-reference files consisted of pink colored carbon paper copies-hence, the "Pinks" series.

The Subject Correspondence series is named for the central file used by Senator Strom Thurmond's office before changing over to a computerized filing system, the Correspondence Management Series (CMS), in 1976. Some subjects from the Subject Correspondence series for 1976 may overlap into the CMS series.

The Wofford B. Camp Papers consist of subject correspondence files, magazine articles, speech memorabilia, newspaper clippings, and photographs documenting Camp's career from his days as a student at Clemson Agriculture College through the operation of the W.

The War Information Center was established at Clemson College in April 1942. It was one of roughly 140 colleges and universities across the United States designated by the Library Service Division of the U.S. Office of Education to receive a wide range of publications and information in order to keep communities informed about the war effort in an age before mass media. The collection contains materials that document the events of World War II and its immediate aftermath.
