Education Council records, 1930-1959 (inclusive) 1930-1947 (bulk)

Extent:
11.92 cubic feet (9 record cartons and 1 document box)
Abstract:
The Education Council's mandate was to "coordinate the educational work of the several divisions of the University," and to consider the work done by the University overall, which it performed from January 1931 to April 1963. Its records contain administrative correspondence, meeting minutes and associated materials, grant applications and reports, and records of faculty publications. The bulk of the collection documents the work of the Faculty Research committee, which oversaw the administration of grants awarded by the University to members of the faculty.
