Yes! When I was a junior or senior in college, I went through the list of PARC reports and made a list of perhaps 20 or more of them I might like. I was very surprised to eventually get a book-sized box full of reports.
That lead me to an interest in Xerox, and when I got out of college I went to work for Xerox in El Segundo on the Star project.
I stayed there for 7 years, so I'd say the company got their money's worth out of sending a college student a bunch of tech reports.
