The files contain copies of correspondence, reports, and background materials either created by the dean or sent to him from other offices. The files also contain agendas, minutes, and supporting materials from school ad hoc and standing committees, and publications issued by the school, most dating from the 1970s. The collection contains extensive files concerning the accreditation of the school and its graduate and undergraduate programs; the development of Master's Degrees in Criminal Justice and Home Economics, and a PhD degree in Human Services; the Field Education Program; and the Unemployment and Economic Dependency Project.
