This collection contains materials from as far back as 1899, as recently as 2017, and continues to grow. The bulk of its contents are from the 1980s to 2017. This time period includes A&M’s Gay Student Services (GSS) lawsuit to gain official campus recognition (achieved in 1985), the founding of Aggie Allies (in the 1990s), debates over the language in A&M's nondiscrimination clause (multiple years), Hurricane Katrina (2005) when A&M hosted evacuees, the evolution of Coming Out Week and Gay (then LGBT) Awareness Week on campus, and the public controversy over university funding for the GLBT Resource Center.

This collection contains the newsletters and periodicals of LGBTQ organizations, most of which are from Texas A&M University (TAMU) or the Brazos Valley. The oldest documents pre-date TAMU’s Gay Student Services, which formed in 1976. Others, such as This Week in Texas, are statewide and give insight into the lesbian music scene and gay bar life in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

The collection includes, but is not limited to material from Ag-gay Pride, Aggie Allies, Alternative (an early LGBTQ organization in Bryan-College Station), The Club (the gay bar of Bryan-College Station in the mid-1990s), and PFLAG Brazos Valley. Some of the notable publications are The Alternative News, The Connection, OutBurst, OutLook, OUTtakes, and The Spirit. Publications from the 1980s and 1990s show a growing and out LGBTQ community in the Brazos Valley area.

These scrapbooks contain clippings, pictures, and other materials Dewey accumulated as a member of the Texas Legislature.

This collection contains documents from the Student Government Association (SGA) including bills, constitutions, agendas and minutes of specific committees and councils, and much more regarding the university's government system.

Most of the documents consist of primary sources that were either handwritten or typed. The collection is mostly made up of agendas, minutes, bills, and correspondence of various A&M student committees and councils. There are a few documents on various university programs and issues that occurred between the 1970s and early 1990s. The entire collection covers the time period from the late 1960s to the early 1990s respectively. These documents only address Texas A&M ventures and concerns regarding the student system.

The collection also includes various traditional events (i.e. Muster) and important people (i.e. Dr. Koldus) that was a result of or contributed to Texas A&M's Student Government.

This collection of reports was assembled by a staff member who worked in the department from 1949 to about 1974. Some reports were added after 1974, but that was not done as consistently as before. Thus, for the first twenty-four years, the collection should be at least virtually complete.

All of the reports are in good condition. The earliest ones were published as mimeograph copies while the later ones seem to be published as photo-offset copies.

From 2003-2011 the archives would receive the schedule of events, the official program, and a VHS, CD, or DVD (formatting progressed through the years) of the convocation. Occasionally a "gift" was included that the incoming freshmen were given to aid them in their first year away from home.

In 2006, the gift became standardized as a drawstring laundry bag one could put their clothes in and throw in the wash or use to carry their personal items to and from laundry facilities. The bag has a solid piece of materials across the center where "Freshman Convocation" along with the year is printed, and a blank spot for the bag owner's name. (Laundry bags were not given to the archive for the years 2009-2011).

In 2013, Freshman Convocation t-shirts were added to the archive accessions.
