The FIPSE subseries contains the conceptual documents for the Student-Faculty Research Community, an educational innovation that proposed a seminar in which students and faculty members would collaborate on a social science research project, as presented in a FIPSE grant proposal.

Further information on the Administration can also be found in the Topical Files.
