Here's a thesis for a Bachelor of Science degree from Michigan Agricultural College, now Michigan State University, in 1922.

For folks who have experience with transits and astronomical observations, it might be an interesting path down memory lane.?ÿ

Looking at Google Earth, the points used on the campus are probably long gone, along with the professor and dean's houses used for locations.

Hopefully, MSU has current points available for such student work, although their methods have undoubtedly changed.
