The series Minutes, 1974-1999 (0.4 linear feet), contains the minutes for the various committees of the AWC. There are many committees that are represented in the series. Throughout the tenure of the AWC, new committees have been formed and old committees have been eliminated according to the AWC's perspective on the changing roles and needs of women at the University of Michigan. The minutes have been arranged chronologically, but are not separated by committee because the functions of different committees often overlap or relate to each other. There are three main groups of minutes: Steering Committee minutes, AWC Meeting minutes, and AWC Awards Committee Meeting minutes. In most cases various reports from other committees are included in the Steering Committee Meeting minutes. In addition there are some minutes of meetings between individuals, and scattered minutes of University of Michigan organizations in which the AWC played an active role, such as The Women's Commission and the Affirmative Action Office. Where typed minutes were not available, handwritten copies were retained. Minutes for the current academic year can be found on the organizations website.

Three folders in Box 5, received in 2015, contain meetings schedules, agenda, correspondence, and select minutes for the years 1984-1995. These files contain materials of the Steering Committee.
