William Arceneaux papers, 1964-2007 (bulk 1972-2007).

The William Arceneaux Papers primarily document Arceneaux's professional activities as a higher education official and policy maker in Louisiana and as a participant in efforts to preserve and promote French language and culture in Louisiana. Materials are largely textual, comprising correspondence, his personal files from professional and civic organizations and boards in which he participated or served in a leadership role, speeches, scrapbooks, personal papers, photographs, printed items, and artifacts. Scrapbooks generally cover a calendar year and include publications from boards and commissions on which Arceneaux served; clippings related to issues in higher education such as desegregation of higher education, funding for Louisiana colleges and universities, and degree offerings in the state; programs from graduations and other university events; letters of appointment and congratulations; and items related to Arceneaux's books and political activities, and French language and culture in Louisiana.
