The Debra Griffth Staff Files series contains records created between 19892002. When Griffith began her position as Regional Director of the Major and Planned Gifts Office in the late 1990's, she requested that each academic unit send her their latest fundraising and recruiting information. These files offer a glimpse of the recruitment efforts and of the fundraising goals and initiatives of the different departments of the university between 1989-2002. The varied promotional materials display the unique look and feel of the many departments within the university. It is interesting to note the different strategies that each department employs to attract potential students, especially such news schools at the time as the School of Information. Within this collection there is also fundraising information pertaining to smaller university organizations such as the Center for the Education of Women, Department of Otolaryngology, Institute of Human Adjustment. There is also information relating to the fundraising efforts of Nichols Arboretum and the University of Michigan's Art Museum. The files are arranged alphabetically according to unit title.
