University of Utah Vice President for University Relations Office records 1953-1975 1965-1975

The office of Economic and Community Development provided business and urban development research and services; supervised the Utah Engineering Station, Research Park, and the Division of Continuing Education; and provided legislative and governmental relations services.

Raymond L. Hixson became the first Vice President for University Relations in 1974 and remained in the position until 1975 when he was succeeded by Reuben J. Snow. This collection contains correspondence, memoranda, clippings, and reports of the offices of the Vice President for Economic and Community Development and Vice President for University Relations.
