Board of Trustees records

Content Description

Office records which includes both material sent to and received by the Board of Trustees of the University of Louisville. The records often include the original incoming or the carbon of an outgoing message, but sometimes represents a duplicate copy of the original which is located elsewhere. The material dates from the 1910s, during which time the administration of the university was reorganized, and is often an indispensable supplement to the original board minutes, which become more sketchy as they approach the present. The bulk of the material dates from the 1950s and 1960s; however, it covers most major issues in financial policy, physical expansion, and university administration.
