When paper theses are scanned by Document Services staff, they are scanned in black-and-white mode. Submitting a thesis electronically is the only way to ensure that color content will be viewable as such online. Original paper versions of MIT theses, including any color content, are available for viewing in person in the Institute Archives. Since they are held in offsite storage, users should call ahead to order the thesis.
