Michigan architect, mainly with firms Sanford Rossen A.I.A. Architects and Rossen-Neumann Associate in Southfield, Michigan, best known for design of several outdoor music venues, collection is primarily of buildings designed by Rossen with some papers related to various projects.

The Sanford Rossen Collection is comprised almost entirely of black and white photographs and color slides of buildings and complexes designed by Sanford-Neumann & Associates during the 1970s. There are a few folders of projects undertaken in the 1960s and in the early 1980s, but the bulk of the material represents the period during which Rossen was associated with Kenneth Neumann. Although the collection includes some slides and photographs of architectural drawings, there is little of substance in this regard, and there is virtually no printed documentation related to individual buildings. The collection will therefore best serve the researcher interested in the visual representation of newly constructed buildings in this time period.

Rossen utilized the services of Balthazar Korab, an internationally acclaimed Detroit-based photographer, to capture on film the essence of many of his buildings. (In 1964, Korab was awarded the American Institute of Architects' Medal for Photography of Architecture, and his photographs have been exhibited in numerous major galleries, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Detroit Institute of Arts.) Rossen had numbers of these prints dry-mounted to hang on office walls and featured others in marketing materials. Some of the photographs are signed by Korab, but the majority are not, and for most, the identity of the photographer is unknown. Researchers wishing to study examples of effective and exceptional architectural photography, however, will find the collection a rich resource, particularly for Michigan area buildings.

The School of Dentistry is a teaching and research unit of the University of Michigan. Records include administrative files, faculty meeting minutes, curriculum and education, subject files relating to dentistry and to the professional interests of the school's faculty; and photographs and films.

The School of Dentistry record group spans the years from 1873 to 2010, but does not comprehensively document the entire span. The records are fragmentary, providing only a partial picture of the School of Dentistry. Documentation reflects the tenures of various deans with scattered documents from the late 1800s and more detail in the period 1920-1990. The records give some insight into the development of dentistry as a profession, and the training and education of dental students. The records, comprised of 40.5 linear feet, 1 oversize volume, 1 oversize folder, and 1.3GB, have been divided into 10 series: Educational Information, Administration, Black Dentistry Conference, Organizations, Surveys, Photographs and Audiovisual Materials, Department Chairpersons' Meetings, Faculty Meetings, American Dental Association Accreditation, Dental Research Institute, and Website.

Office files, 1904-2014

Online

The Office Files series constitute the central file of the School of Information. It includes internal administrative correspondence, correspondence with the university's central administration and other academic departments and with professional organizations, other library schools, foundations and accrediting agencies. The organization of the files into chronological subseries reflects the way in which the files were transferred to the archives, or in some instances, changes in school administration. There is some overlap in time span of the subseries and some continuity of files between subseries. Each of the subseries is arranged in a single alphabetical sequence

1964-1984

The Office Files, 1964-1984 subseries (9 linear feet) is composed of the records of the school from 1964 through 1984, though there is very little material from Wallace Bonk's time as chairman (1964-1967). The subseries encompasses the school's administration and operation and has several interesting files.

Accreditation relates to the school's reaccreditation in 1974 by the American Library Association Committee on Accreditation (COA). Prior to the COA site visit, the school undertook a self-study and submitted its report to the COA. Most of the materials relate to this self-study process. Overseen by a steering committee, chaired by Rosemary Magrill, the self-study was made up of six subcommittees: Faculty; Governance, Administration, and Financial Support; Physical Resources and Facilities; Program Goals and Objectives; Questionnaires; and Students. Each committee was made up of faculty, student, and alumni representatives. Correspondence and the final COA report are also included. The material provides detailed insight into all aspects of the school's operation.

Affirmative Action contains correspondence and reports regarding the School of Library Science's efforts to meet the university's 1969 commitment to ten percent minority enrollment. There are also materials on the Black Action Movement and on an allegedly racist film ("The Speaker") purchased by the school. Alumnus-in-Residence refers to an annual program, begun in 1969, which brought distinguished alumni to the university for discussion with students about current issues in librarianship. Included in this file are programs, correspondence, and memos.

The Committee on Institutional Cooperation (C.I.C.) contains correspondence regarding the development and operation of a joint doctoral program in library science. Course Material is limited for this series, with material for only three classes. Only L.S. 813, Bidlack's Trends and Issues seminar, is extensively represented. The Knapp Project contains materials about the school's experimental program in school library management from 1971 to 1974. Types of materials include grant proposals, budgets, correspondence, committee meeting notes, research data, and the interim and final reports.

An especially useful file is School Status. It includes materials relating to the Regents' 1968 decision to make the Department of Library Science into a separate school. Included is Bonk's 1964 statement to Dean Haber requesting school status, and correspondence from 1963 to 1972. The largest part of the file relates to the 1967 visit by a panel of library leaders. There are numerous documents on various aspects of the department's operation.

In the subseries, there are several file headings which require little description. Among these are Budgets, Faculty Minutes, and Workshops, for which there are also records in the 1904-1964 subseries. Both the Curriculum Committee and the Long-Range Planning Committee files are composed of minutes, memos, notes, and correspondence of the committees. In later accessions, Faculty Minutes are treated as a distinct series.

Established in 1921 as the Department of Physical Education, the department maintained separate programs for men and women until 1970. In 1984 Physical Education became an independent unit. In 1990 the name was officially changed to Division of Kinesiology. In 2008 the Division of Kinesiology was renamed the School of Kinesiology. Records reflect the evolution of kinesiology from a department to independent division. Material includes committee records, curriculum material and topical files.

Spanning the years 1966-2010, the records of the School of Kinesiology (3.5 linear ft.) document the evolution of the division from a department within a school to a distinct degree-granting body. With material from all three stages of the Division's history, namely the Department of Physical Education (1921-1977), the Division of Physical Education (1984-1990), and the Division of Kinesiology (1990-1999), the records demonstrate a small unit's struggle within a large university and its efforts to garner support both from the university and Ann Arbor community. The record group is comprised of six series: Audio Series, Committee Records, Correspondence, Program Development, Topical Files and Website series. These series stress both the evolution of the division and its intrinsic relationship with the Athletic Department, providing students with practical experience in all of the distinct curriculum areas. Although a majority of the records highlighting the development of Kinesiology are held in the Program Development series, this theme and others reoccur throughout the record group.
