Radcliffe College. Office of Development.

Early fundraising at Radcliffe College was conducted by specially appointed committees, such as the Committee on Resources, 1915-1936. From 1950 to 1961 Mildred Sherman, Dean of College Relations, was responsible for alumnae gifts and special fundraising projects. On her death in 1961, the College Fund Office was established; and renamed the Office of Development and Alumnae Affairs in 1972 to continue previous functions and seek foundation and government grant funding.
