Arrangement
This collection has not been arranged; files have been listed in the order in which they appear.
Immediate Source of Acquisition
These records were transferred directly from the Office of Federal Affairs (formerly the Office of Federal Relations).
Appraisal
One file of information was removed from the collection and destroyed in June 2015. This was done because the contained information that would require long-term restriction and was determined to be of limited historical value. The file contained information about a B-2 Visa request for the fiancee of a prospective faculty member, and included confidential information about the faculty member's terms of potential employment.
Accruals
