The Homer A. Neal papers, 1961-1997, document the professional career of high-energy experimental physicist, professor and academic administrator Homer Alfred Neal. Neal has held academic and administrative positions at Indiana University (1967-1981), State University of New York (SUNY) at Stony Brook (1981-1987) and the University of Michigan (1961-1966, and 1987-present), all of which are represented in the collection. The collection documents Neal's involvement with a number of professional and scientific organizations, including the National Science Foundation, Argonne Universities Association, the Superconducting Super Collider, and Smithsonian Institution. The collection also features a significant amount of material related to Neal's research activities in high-energy physics, including the early use of computers.

The Homer A. Neal papers, 1961-1997 (39 linear feet), are organized into eight series: Biographical Information (1971-1997); Class Work and Student Teaching (1961-1966); Research (1964-1997); Teaching and Academic Administration (1967-1997); Professional Activities (1968-1996); Speeches and Presentations (1966-1997); Publications (1966-1996); and Photographs (1963-1995). With the exception of Class Work and Student Teaching, which only contains documents from Neal's time as a graduate student at the University of Michigan, each of these series spans the entire time period represented by the collection, and represents the multiple functions that Neal has carried out throughout his career. Within each of these series, documents are organized by institution or project, and then roughly chronologically.

The Office of the President records group includes the records of University of Michigan Presidents Robben Fleming, 1968-1978 and 1988 (interim); Allan Smith, 1979 (interim); Harold T. Shapiro, 1980-1987; James J. Duderstadt, 1988-1996; Homer Neal, 1996-1997 (interim); Lee C. Bollinger, 1997-2001; B. Joseph White, 2002 (interim); Mary Sue Coleman (2002-2014); and Mark Schlissel (2014-present). The record group includes annual files from the Office of the President, which include topical files and schools and colleges files. Other series in the record group include supplemental files for each president, search files, committee appointment files, audio and visual materials, development files, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) files, and ephemera.

The records of the University of Michigan President contain the central files created and collected by the President and members of the President's staff. There is some content inherited from earlier presidents, but the record group effectively begins in 1967 with the administration of Robben W. Fleming and continues through successive administrations. (Records of Presidents prior to Fleming are cataloged under the name of the individual office holder).

The University of Michigan President's records are organized into the following series: Topical Files; Schools and Colleges Files; Supplemental Files; Search Files; Committee Appointment Files; Development; Facilities; Freedom of Information Act; Audio-Visual Material Files; Ephemera; Archived Website. Three first three series are major recurring series (Topical, Schools and Colleges, and Supplemental Files). The additional series (Committee Appointment; Searches; Development; Facilities; Freedom of Information Act; Audio-Visual Material Files; Ephemera; Archived Website) are not consistently created or predictably transferred.

Although the series are collectively described, the actual ordering of the boxes in the contents listing are not necessarily consecutive given the timing and sequence of transfers. For a summary bringing all boxes together under a particular series, see the Summary Contents list for a collective representation of boxes.
