University of Michigan inter-disciplinary, area studies and resource center. Records relating to the administration of and the programs supported by the Center, including information on funding, courses, exchange programs, publicity, and affiliated activity; audio and video tapes of presentation and lectures; and various publications.

The records for the Center for Russian and East European Studies (CREES) document an array of activities that the center has been involved with since its inception and includes administrative files, audio and visual material, clippings, press releases, proposals, publications, and subject files. Records from the 1980s to the 1990s make up the bulk of this record group. The documents reflect how the Center has grown and become active not just at the university level, but also at a global level. The financial, global, and business ties that CREES has worked hard to cultivate can be traced through this record group. The way those ties developed as well as the many other interests of the center will be of interest to researchers.
