Minutes of the General Faculty and of the Faculty Council, 1799-2006 (Series 1).

Records consist of minutes of the General Faculty, 1799-2006, and the Faculty Council, 1951-2006. Minutes routinely include discussions of general administrative and educational policies as well as committee reports and memorials to deceased faculty. Minutes prior to 1919 also frequently include lists of students, lists of degrees conferred, and commencement programs. Antebellum minutes record cases of student misconduct and disciplinary actions. Beginning in November 1966, Faculty Council minutes were recorded in the same volumes as General Faculty minutes; prior to that, they were recorded separately. Records also include microfilm copies of General Faculty and Faculty Council meeting minutes, 1799-1994, and 141 audiocassette tapes of General Faculty and Faculty Council meetings, 1984-1994.
