Boards, Committees and Commissions, 1957-1995
The Boards, Committees and Commissions series, 1957-1995 (6.5 linear feet) represent the records of the various organizations that report through SACUA to the Senate. Interesting records include the Board in Control of Intercollegiate Athletics, the Committee on the Economic Status of the Faculty (CESF), and the Committee for a Multicultural University. CESF reports are particularly valuable because of their annual reports discussing faculty compensation. The Bylaws/Rules Committee subseries, 1959-1997 (.25 linear feet) consists of bound correspondence and reports surrounding the formation of policy for the senate and the university, including rules governing the makeup of the senate's governing bodies and the demographics of the university faculty. The Bylaws Committee changes its name to the Rules Committee in December 1977. The Grievance Subcommittee subseries, 1983-1996 (.75 linear feet) contains correspondence, reports, and research information pertaining to the university grievance policy. This material was part of an accession from Professor Thomas E. Moore, who served on SACUA, the Grievance Subcommittee, and was president of the University of Michigan chapter of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP).
